I decided to start this blog (2010) because my son, John-Robert gave me a One Year Bible for Christmas, the New Living Translation... reading it has changed my life... I post a daily Bible verse on my Facebook page every day and it has been well received... I thought that this would be a wonderful way to share part of what I read each day!... I hope that you enjoy it.



This Year 2012 I am going to do things a little different... not much...just a little. I am again reading through my One Year Bible (for the 3rd time). But I am also using "The Secret Power of Speaking God's Word" by Joyce Meyer. This book is divided by putting scriptures under different categories so they can be used to speak over our life situations. Each day I will read a category of scripture and pick a scripture in that category to write about.

2.18.13

Psalm 37:5 Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you.
 
My Thoughts
Commit everything, EVERYTHING. I have trouble with everything.  I so often go about my day and give a lot to God... but I have to learn to give him my everything.  Each task I take on in a day I need to give to God.  How many things do I start and not finish because I didn't give that task it to God.  How many things in my life would I do better if I would give it to God as I get started. I have got to learn to trust God with every task I take on... every word I speak... every craft that I do.... every meal that I cook.... every penny I spend... every penny that I save.... with my sleep at night and my waking up in the morning.  What would I choose to do different if I prayed before every choice I made?  What if I said, "Dear God I am going to was a load of clothes be with me. I am going to clean the kitchen be with me. I commit this job to you."
 
I have to learn not to go blindly into each and every task I take on.  I know that when I pray first I learn more and do better!!  So much of what I do seems to be on automatic.  I need to quit doing about, going about and give each thing to God.
