Welcome to my blog: I intend to share heartfelt writing about anything that comes to mind. |
Today, I worked a little around the house. Not much else is really going on today. It's kind of dreary outside. It's been raining over the last few days. Yesterday, I posted on Facebook that someone must have ordered snow but it melted before it got here because it was raining instead. LOL ====================== Take UP Your Cross Blog Prompt: Who do you connect to most in the Bible? Why? Answer: Ruth because Ruth is my middle name. Also, David has always been my favorite Bible character since I was a child. Prayer prompt: Pray for the leaders of the world, country, and state, who are responsible for decisions that affect communities, families, and individuals daily. Dear God, Sometimes, it is hard to know how to pray for our leaders especially in the day we are living in. Sometimes it is even hard to know who is really leading the world, the country and our state. Whoever, it is, please, be with them. Let your hand be upon them that they may make good decisions and make good laws for the good of the people every day. In Jesus name, Amen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you a binger watcher when it comes to streaming series on television? Or a binge reader when it comes to book series? I am not usually a binge watcher. I do tend to get into Untold Stories of the ER or Billy the Exterminator though. I enjoy reality tv or educational shows. I am more of a binge reader than watcher. I love the 39 clues series. Also, I enjoy most series written by Gilber Morris. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prompt: Write about your Christmas or anything about Christmas. I wrote about my Christmas yesterday voluntarily. I am actually kind of glad it is over with this year for reasons that are difficult to explain. Mostly it is because of the emotional things I was feeling this year. I did listen on Audible to A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens and enjoyed that. ![]() ![]() |
