Loving God

My three friends took the time to edit and critique a story I wrote. I feel so thankful and blessed. These ladies love God and it shows.

I asked a friend to go to church with me tomorrow and he said no. A little later I asked him again and he said yes. I am so happy.

Wilson College Walk

A friend and I went for a walk to the Equestrian Center at Wilson College. It was so beautiful this afternoon. We could feel the nice breeze. I love the cool weather! I took pictures of the horses and my friend. I love my hobby of taking pictures. God, thank you for another wonderful day!

An Autumn Afternoon

I went out to lunch with a couple of friends and then after lunch, we walked in the woods at Caledonia State Park. It was a beautiful, crisp autumn afternoon. Thank you God for your beauty and for life.

Psalm 32:7

"You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. "

I praise God for answered prayer this afternoon. We prayed for me to not get a big bill when I took my car to Expert Tire for an inspection and an oil change. Thank you Lord for giving me a small bill, one that I could afford to pay. Thank you for taking care of us, Father God. 

The Best Gift

At the church service last evening, the pastor said she was going to play Oprah. She was going to give each of us a brand new car or give us each 1 million dollars. The pastor also said that although those material things are nice to have, the best gift of all is the presence of God.

Safe Travels

God gave us safety when we drove to Lancaster, PA to Sight and Sound Theatre to watch Joseph. It was an awesome musical. My two friends and I had a great time. I could feel God's presence shine upon us on Tuesday.

Yesterday, my friends and I went to Lewisburg, PA for lunch and Christmas shopping. That was fun too.

Today, I went to the House of Grace for toll painting. I enjoyed the music and bible lesson in Spiritual Growth class.

Writing Desires

I would like to put together the writings in my journals and make it into a memoir. I hope I will have the ambition to do this. I wish I would take the time to write some short stories and children's stories. I pray that the Lord will help me write what he wants me to share with others.

Philippians 4:6-7

"Do not be anxious in anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)

God is Good

I love the Lord more each day. I enjoy learning about Jesus. I can see the things he is doing in my life and those around me. God is so good. He is good all the time.

Delight Yourself

"Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4

God did a wonderful thing for me today. I settled an account with a creditor this morning. Instead of paying all of the bill, they wanted 2 payments at 40% off. I called them and I made a deal to pay it all at once. They gave me over 50% off. God is so wonderful! I hope you have as good a day as I'm having or better.

Church

Yay, I made it to church today. I hope I will make it to church next week and the week after. I would like to become a member of the church. I pray that the Lord will help me go to all the membership classes.

Submit to Him

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6

I kind of lead a crooked life in the past. Jesus made my life better because I turned to Him. I spend time with him by reading scripture, doing daily devotions, by praying and worshipping him in song. Now my goal is to go to church every Sunday this month. I have been struggling with going to church regularly. Do  you think I can? I think I can.
