Welcome to my blog: I intend to share heartfelt writing about anything that comes to mind. |
| I wasn't in my normal jovial mood this January 1st. I have felt kind of exhausted and worn down these last few days. This week has not gone as desired either. I am hoping for a better week this next week. I have been without my antidepressants for a couple of weeks, and I think it has affected my moods. I have finally gotten them again, but it may take a couple of weeks for them to get back into my system. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Take UP Your Cross Blog Prompt: Do you show kindness and respect to those who don’t show it to you? I do try to do so. Sometimes, I don't always succeed, especially when I have to face those kinds of people on a regular basis. This might be an area that I need to work on. Prayer prompt: Pray for your church leaders who carry a heavy responsibility to be diligent with the Lord’s work and take care of the Lord’s flock. Dear God, I pray for the church leaders that they would be diligent with the Lord’s work and take care of the Lord’s flock. I pray that they won't provoke their members to wrath, and that they will lead with wisdom. In Christ's name, Amen  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On this day in 1870, construction began on Brooklyn Bridge. Let's talk about the different architecture of the bridges around us. Do you notice how they're made? What they're named? Are they famous for something or someone in history? I know that in Oklahoma, we have quite a few remains of old bridges. There is the newer bridge in Okc that goes over the highway that is supposed to be a large metal structure of a Scissortailed fly catcher, our state bird. I like the decoration of the highway overpasses here in Okc of the buffalo. Nothing extravagant or famous comes to mind right away though. I am sure that if I were to research it, I could find some interesting stories about bridges in Oklahoma though. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Use these words in your entry today: selflessness, heroic, determination, fierce, longshots, peanuts, and timeouts. Sometimes, I enjoy these kinds of prompts and sometimes I don't, especially when I am not in a creative mood. Just saying. This has just been one of those weeks and I have been in a bit of a bad mood. That is on me though. I guess this could be a good group of words for a baseball game. (scratching my head in thought) Johnny stepped up to the plate with heroic determination. It had been a very long and fierce game. There were no more timeouts to be called. All the bases were loaded, and the score was tied. The crowd were cheering. Peanuts, popcorn, sodas, and other snacks had all been forgotten in this nail-biting moment. This was a longshot of longshots as he rarely even hit the ball, little alone a home run. Could he even hit this ball so the team could win the game, or would he strike out? The crowd grew so quiet you could hear a pin drop as the pitcher threw the ball. Johnny swung, and somehow the bat made contact with the ball. He began running for 1st base with all his might and with an act of selflessness, put his body on the line and dove to touch the base. The crowd cheered as he was called "safe!", and his team won the game.  |

How awesome is that! Prayer prompt: Pray for your coworkers or the coworkers of someone close to you. Dear God, Please prosper the work of the hands of the people who work with me. In Jesus' name, Amen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use these words in your entry today: sixth, elegance, spirit, frozen, sense, January, termination, and maneuvers. Do all these words go together? LOL Now to get my brain to put them together. Judith was dressed for elegance. She was ready to celebrate the New Year. January 1st was just a few minutes away. All of a sudden, she was frozen in place. Her sixth sense told her that there was something not quite right and not to go to the party. This made her spirit feel uneasy. She wasn't sure what to do. She was just about to step out the door of her apartment. With a few cautious maneuvers, she made her way back to her couch. Later that night she was relieved at the termination of her plans as there had been a mass shooting at the party. Had she been there, she would have seen her friends get shot or possibly been shot herself. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prompt: 2025. What are your plans and hopes for the new year? I am hoping to develop some healthier habits and concentrate on taking better care of myself. I hope to prosper in my Tupperware business and to make strides in my writing here on WDC. |
Take UP Your Cross Blog Prompt: Do you have any spiritual goals set for the new year? Do you use this or another time to reflect on your spiritual life to see if improvements can be made? I do use this time as a time for reflection. I hope to start my prayer journaling again. Prayer prompt: Pray for WDC in 2025 and that your life would bring glory to the Lord in all that you do this new year and in years to come. Dear God, Forgive me where I have failed you and came up short of your glory. Please, help my life to bring you glory. I pray that all I do on WDC will bring you glory too. Please, let your presence be made known here on WDC also. Let all those things be for this year and the years to come. In Jesus' name, Amen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
