My Spiral Bound Book

2 Christmases ago, one of the older (NOT old!) women in my life gave me this little spiral bound book with a few scripture verses in it.

This book has become very dear to me. I take it with me to many places. I have filled it all the way through one sided now I’m working on the other side. Whenever I’m reading in my Bible, I usually have this beside me so that when I find a verse that impacts me, I can quickly jot it down. That way I have it in a place that I will be able to easily find the verse next time I need it, instead of just having a list of scripture references. A list of references is also great, as it helps you to learn your Bible better but it’s just not the best way for me.

This way is much more convenient…

(don’t mind the view of my neighbours garage, just imagine the ocean instead!)

This little book really has been a lifesaver! There have been many times where I just need to find a specific verse, and voila! it’s in my handy little book! I’m so very thankful that I was given this book.

To my lovely friend who gave it to me, thanks a million!

How do you keep track of verses that impact you? I’d love to hear about it!

Love Andrea

Handy idea!
If a verse grabs my attention, I'll either include it in a journal entry or, if it REALLY grabs me, write it on an 81/2 x 11 sheet and hang it on the wall for awhile.

My favourite room in my house

Anyone who knows me personally can agree when I say that my favourite room in my house is my kitchen.                     Not because it’s fancy, which, it’s not.    Not because it’s clean & tidy, which it most often, is not.  Most definitely not because of the great view out my window, which is my neighbours garage. But because that’s the place where I get to create! That is the place where all the ‘magic’ happens. That’s the place where I go from ‘mom’ to ‘magician’ and I can just let my imagination run free! I LOVE,LOVE, LOVE to bake (this is not an exaggeration).  What I also love, is a baking challenge. I have a few friends with restricted diets and I have had the opportunity to bake for them. I have friends that can’t have sugar or dairy and only certain kinds of flour.  This was quite a challenge for me in the beginning, but I have done a lot o...

Two Words.

Test everything. These 2 words have played over and over in my mind lately. I knew that there is a verse that says this, but I didn’t remember where to find it, so last night I asked my husband. He, for some reason can find everything for me. He found it in 1Thessalonians 5:21 “Test everything. Hold on to the good.” What exactly does that mean? What I have found lately, is that this applies to ALL things in All areas. Especially those concerning Christianity and the Truth. These days, you can’t just walk into a church and assume that what you hear the pastor say is true. To do that can be very dangerous.  What I understand from this verse is that we are supposed to test everything against the Word of God and hold on to the Truth only. Take your Bible to church with you, check what the pastor is speaking against the Word. We need to make sure that what we are being taught is God’s truth. Everything that your church practices and teaches should be in your Bible. I’m so very thankf...

Lets see how this goes...

Well, I've just started my blog and seeing as how I'm new at this it might take me a few tries before I get the hang of it.    At the end of January my husband and & I decided it was time to add another member to our family.No we were not thinking of having another baby as we already have 2 kids and a dog I have enough to keep me busy. We decided to sponsor a child. This decision involved alot of research into different organizations until we finally settled on Compassion. The reason we picked Compassion was because it takes care of all the other needs of the child but the most important one is that they focus on the teaching of Christ.They work within the local christian church and all the children that are in the Compassion program go to sunday school and are taught about Jesus. This was the most important thing to us.       So, now that we have the organization how do you choose which child? They all need help. I'm a terrible decision maker as...
