Psalm Challenge Begins

Okay girls...open your Bibles to the Book of Psalms...

Take the challenge: Read through the Book of Psalms with us!

God will reveal Himself to us as well as show us how to respond to Him.

Here's how we will approach the book.

First, we'll read one psalm per week in a couple of translations.

Next, we'll discover it by looking for all of the good stuff in it!

(emotions, how the writer describes God, what we learn about God,

any confusing or repetitive words or ideas, how it relates to our life

experiences...)

Finally, we fill write our own psalm to God. It might look somewhat like the psalm or completely different. We're just going to be honest with our God.

This is very close to the way Beth Moore teaches how to study the psalms of Ascent so I want to give her credit!

It would be really cool if we used the comment section to share our journey through the psalms.

Okay, read, discover, write!

Who's up for the challenge?

Birthday Fun!



My kids and husband made my birthday so special. A wonderful dinner, lots of goodies and a flower cake! I almost got the delivery guy arrested though when he delivered the flowers. I thought he was trying to break into the house so I called the constable. It was truly a comedy of errors and I doubt if that guy will ever be the same! The day was crazy with the opening of Super kids camp and preparing for hurricane Edouard which never really landed. Thanks everyone for thinking of me! 54 and getting younger!
