This post picks up where Part I (below) left off. All of these “discoveries” were made on the same night immediately following my reading of II Chronicles.
To refresh, in our class Wednesday night, Beth Moore spent the majority of time talking about how songs (or psalms) are the language our souls speak. She gave several [...]

Posted in Deeper Things I Am Finding, tagged Beth Moore, feast of unleavened bread, grace, Jesus, passover, Psalms of Ascent on August 28, 2008 | 5 Comments »
I have had a tendency lately to write EXTREMELY long posts. lol I am going to try to break this one up into several parts and see if that works better.
I have posted earlier about how I have been praying for insight and deeper understanding during this study. I hesitate to use words or phrases [...]
Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem
Posted in Deeper Things I Am Finding, tagged Beth Moore, Isaiah, peace of Jerusalem, Psalms of Ascent, Revelation on August 27, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I have been praying daily for God to show me deeper things in His Word – things I have probably read multiple times, yet not really made a connection on. Has He ever delivered.
So I was on lesson 5 in my Beth Moore Psalms of Ascent study last night. This lesson dealt with Psalm 122.
Psalm [...]

Today I am grateful for a sense of humor. I believe that God meant for us all to be able to laugh and enjoy life. I met many Christians, however, who just seemed to feel that laughing and having a good time was somehow “unholy” or sinful. What a shame. I can’t imagine living life [...]

This past Wednesday I started a Beth Moore bible study at my church called Stepping Up: A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent. It’s funny how God works. Sorry for the length, but a little background is in order.
First of all, I am a geek. I love studying. Anything and everything. If there is something [...]

Gratituesday – Thank Goodness God is Intelligent
Posted in Gratituesday on August 19, 2008 | 1 Comment »
‘Cause I seem to have forgotten where my brain is these last few weeks. I have been making dumb mistakes and doing REALLY stupid things that I NEVER do in ALL areas of my life. I am grateful to know that in the midst of my brain lapses, God is still God, and nothing I [...]
Comfort vs. Courage – Knowing When to Take the Leap of Faith

(My apologies, this is an EXTREMELY long post. )
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. – Psalm 27:14
Comfort is nice. Comfort is safe. Comfort is secure. But comfort, sometimes, is not where you are meant to stay.
Courage is scary. Courage [...]

Today I am thankful for my job. I am thankful that my job is secure in an economy where that is not the case for a lot of people. I am thankful that mine and my husband’s income covers our bills and then some.
And, yes, it has been one of “those weeks” when [...]
