Young Maiden's Daybook - January 4

Today…
January 4, 2010


Outside my window…
It is cold and crisp with a very blue sky.


I am thinking…
Of how fast that past year (and decade) went by.
And how futuristic it sounds saying "twenty-ten" Ü


I am thankful…
For a great watch night service we went to New Years eve.
We visited a church and sang special music,
had a fellowship and prayed into the New Year.


I am wearing...
Khaki skirt and brown 3/4 sleeve shirt.


I am reading…
2 Chronicles, Proverbs, Ezekiel, Mark;
"Fascinating Truths" by James Knox
"The Lost Cause Series" by James Knox
"Do Hard Things" by Alex and Brett Harris
"Choosing Gratitude" by Nancy Leigh DeMoss with Mama ;o)
"Passionate Housewives Desperate For God"
by Jennie Chancey & Stacy McDonald


I am creating…
A "full band" arrangement for the song I wrote,
more steel guitar arrangements for our upcoming cd,
and (hopefully) more things to make for my etsy shop.


One of my favorite things…
chicken nuggets with Sweet Baby Ray's spicy BBQ,
with some perogies on the side...
which I'm enjoying for lunch now!


For education this week…
"homecollege" a.k.a Daughter at Home University =)
I'm looking at different mission boards and
planning to study for their requirements.
I'm going to start studying nursing/medical skills,
as I'm really starting to get ready for the mission field.
Really studying more about doctrine.


A keeper at home skill I am learning/using...
Budgeting.


A spiritual lesson I'm learning...
Submission, not just obedience.


A godly character trait I plan to work on…
Staying in prayer and more Bible studying.


Scripture I am memorizing…
Proverbs 31:10-31 with my online friend.



I'm praying for…
The Lord's guidance through my life.
That He would show me His Truths from His Word,
and help me to be forgiving and have grace toward others.
The Lord to bless and to grow our church.
Also praying that He sends more missionaries to
the much needed country of Greece and the rest of the world.


For the rest of the week…
Completely reorganizing my room;
going to my dad's promotion ceremony tomorrow
(he'll be a Master Sergeant!);
my sister, Carolynne's, 6th birthday on Friday;
responding to some letters, comments and emails;
spend extra time with my wonderful Savior;
and whatever else the Lord sees fit to send my way.

A picture I'm sharing...
I entitled this "Voice of the Lord"...

"The voice of the LORD is upon the waters;
The God of glory thundereth, the LORD is upon many waters."
Psalms 29:3

Have a great week!
