I can't believe it has been so long since I posted. School started and now a semester is gone. We are nearly finished with January 2009. Can you believe that?
I have so many things I want to do and yet I just keep getting behind.
My main commitment for the time being is to read through the Bible in 365 days. That means I have to stay commented to read every day without fail. Last year I read the entire Bible in 90 days. That was a real commitment! It sure felt good when I completed it. It turned out that I completed it on 4-07-08, which was exactly one year to the day when my Mom had died.
I am also studying the Purpose Driven Life book and a Daily Devo that Linda gave me for Christmas.
I have started a bucket list.
My Number One Bucket List
To make God's will my will. I want to completely and wholly submit my will to His will.
I got an embroidery machine for Christmas. I am slowly learning how to use it. The thing is the machine is much smarter than I am. But that can be a good thing. When I see the cute little face with a tear on the screen I know that I have made a mistake. He gladly tells me what I need to do to correct it.
We are prayerfully planning my third trip and Tommy's fourth trip to Zambia. How blessed is that? I prayed to go one time and now we are hoping to go a third time. That is the best thing I have ever done in my life.
Maybe I will post my bucket list soon. I am still adding to it. Some of the things I have accomplished. Some I am still thinking of.
Until the next time. Romans 8:28 and following.
