Snowday

March 1st is finally here and with it comes a day of snow.

Snow?

Wishing for an early spring seems to be a long shot. The snow has been falling since noon. We've had a very lazy day ... napping on and off, watching movies and reading. I love how God has a way of forcing us to slow down. We certainly needed this time of rest.

Thank you for your comments on my previous post. I almost deleted it today. I'm not good at talking about the 'ugly stuff' and being the private person I am makes it all the more difficult to share things on this blog, but I know that other women struggle with the same kind of things. That's what blogging is all about, isn't it? So I pray it helps to know that we're never in this alone. I know that brought me comfort. Oh, and to 'anonymous' that posted the words to the song sung in church this morning? Thank you! I read that comment and felt this weird feeling that someone was looking over my shoulder knowing exactly what I would need to read. I have no idea who you are, but know that I SO appreciate your prayers. I feel them!

Switching subjects ....

I have known since I posted my last scripture on the LPM blog what my next one would be. I, of course didn't know how much I would need it, but I guess that's the point of hiding God's word in our hearts, isn't it? If we're praying and seeking the Lord on what He wants us to memorize, He'll usually give us something we're going to need for battle. I've chosen Psalm 18:16-19:

"He sent from above, he took me,

he drew me out of many waters.

He delivered me from my strong enemy,

and from them which hated me:

for they were too strong for me.

They prevented me in the day of my calamity:

but THE LORD WAS MY STAY.

He brought me forth into a large place;

He delivered me because

HE DELIGHTED IN ME."

I often refer to this verse, but have never committed it to memory.

Switching subjects again ....

This is my 400th post! Can you believe that? Who would've thought? Not me, I can assure you. Honestly, I never thought I would make it past the first post when I wrote about my then, 4 year old E (who is now 7!!). And, now I will give you 400 facts about myself ....

Ha! Just kidding. Wouldn't that be boring? If you are having trouble sleeping, you can check out my 100th post. It's riveting, I tell you and without a doubt, more than you ever wanted to know about me.

Thanks for sticking around for 400!
