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...

Monday’s Thoughts

Have you ever wondered about the history of Compassion International? I know I have. Today, as I was catching up on some blog posts that I’ve missed lately, I came across this video.  I thought it would be good to share with you. Whether you sponsor with Compassion or not, it doesn’t matter. I recommend that you take the 3 minutes and watch this video.   Watch Pastor Everett Swanson in Family | View More Free Videos Online at Veoh.com It’s beautiful to see how despair can turn into hope, just with one man’s dream and the power of God. Will you sponsor a child? If you decide to sponsor a child, feel free to share it with me. I would love to share in your joy!

Some Encouragement...

  What a nice weekend it was! The weather wasn't too bad either. It could have been a bit warmer but this is Manitoba after all. Spring is always unpredictable here!   I also had a chance to go back to the book fair by myself on Saturday. It was such a good time! I spent 45 minutes there and I only looked at one section! I came home with an armful of books and it only cost me 5 bucks! I didn't know this ahead of time but the last day is always half price day. So lucky for me, every book was half price! That makes shopping (especially when your on a budget) a lot more exciting! I was able to find some neat books for my sponsor boys as well. I found a couple on animals, one on hockey (the great Canadian sport), and one on northern Canada. Now, I just need to figure out which book to send to each boy.    I also found some great christian books for my husband and myself. The one that I'm reading now is called " Witness The Passion" by Richard Exley....
