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.

5.4.12

Psalms 104:31 May the glory of the Lord continue forever! The Lord takes pleasure in all that He has made.

My Thoughts
I love how God tells me one day something I need to improve on..Yesterday. Then the next day He tells me how much he loved me! Today!  The Lord takes pleasure in all that He has made!!


Have you ever made something with you own hands? Then looked at it and thought "Wow!! Look what I did!! This is amazing!" When God made us... you and me... He looked down and took pleasure in us...he still looks down and takes pleasure in us. Even when we mess up! 

I have come to believe that God is disappointed in us when we don't try at all...not when we try and mess up... each time we try we move forward a little bit.  Even if we feel like we have failed...that it itself is a step froward.  Before we knew God and knew that we failed God we never had that thought. That thought in itself is a sign that we are doing better...being aware of where we need to improve is a step forward. When we are trying God looks down with us and He is pleased.

Yesterday God said "Jeannie this is something you need to work on!" Today God said "Jeannie I take pleasure in you!"  The thought makes me smile..it give me peace. It makes me feel loved!!
