Hear ye Bloggers.
How doth thy reading of the scriptures taketh thee into other realms of thoughts and appreciations?
I wouldst delight in thy intricate re-tellings of how thee hath found this noble challenge to be so far.
do tell.
Strength in thy readings and re-tellings.

Okay...so where is everyone?
Hi all,
I keep checking this blog...but no new updates. How is everyone going? I must admit with great disappointment that I have gotten quite a ways behind. I am still in Exodus, I'm not even sure where we're meant to be up to. I feel bad for not having kept up. But I read 5 chapters today and am hoping to catch up as much as I can.
I have realised of late I am not spending much time in the Word or in God's presence. And I find this shows in my every day life, how I respond to things, how I carry out my daily duties, how I react to circumstances. If I am spending time in God's prescence, reading His Word and in prayer, then it certainly makes a difference. But when I don't, that feeling of God's presence is gone and its really frustrating and I find tension and anxiousness creeping into my soul.
Anyway, just wanted to check in, see how everyone is doing and I guess maybe if you could all hold ME accountable to keeping up with the program. Even if I'm not keeping up with the chapters, just that I am at least making an effort to spend daily time in God's presence. And of course reading our 4 chapters a day is a great way to achieve this as it kinda forces us to sit down and see what God has to say to us that day.
I don't know about you but life for us as a family is quite busy at present. But that makes it all the more vital and important to spend time with God, even MORE time than ever before, because this is the time decisions are being made, lives are being changed and plans are being formed...and for us to make the right decisions and go the direction God would have us to we have to be abiding in Him daily. I just love this verse and am going to try to make it my motto as I try to seek Him daily "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing" John 15:5
How very true..."apart from Me you can do NOTHING."
Anyways, signing off for now, stop in and let us all know how you're going, what you're up to, even if you're lagging behind, don't feel bad, we can all get up again and try our hardest, God knows our motives and our hearts. Tomorrow is a new day.
love yas,
