Welcome to my blog: I intend to share heartfelt writing about anything that comes to mind. |
![]() PROMPT July 26th We've all faced them at one time or another, and will in the future. Tonight, write about a challenge you faced, and how you overcame it. Lol It is funny you should ask this now. I am trying to finish writing a Bible study on the subject of patience as a fruit of the Holy Spirit. I have gotten behind on my blogs, housework, and everything it seems. I feel exhausted. I am doing my rising stars assignments, I need to do some more reviews before the month is out. I am behind answering emails. I just can't seem to catch up. How am I overcoming it? I am overcoming this through prayer and perseverance and determination. |
![]() PROMPT July 25th We were all children at one time. Some much longer ago than others. Tonight, write about the things you loved doing when you were a child. Playing and getting new toys were 2 of my favorite things when I was a kid of course. I also loved swinging in the tree swing my dad made me. We had a large tree in the back yard. Dad took a rope and tied the ends securely on one of the large tree limbs. Then he took a board (2x4), cut a piece off to make a seat for the swing, and cut a couple of notches on both sides so the board would sit right across the bottom of the rope. I swang in that swing until I was a teenager and the rope rotted. I would sometimes sit on the floor at the back door in the kitchen so I could watch the birds. I have always like watching the birds. Mom would crumble up bread crumbs outside to help draw them to the yard so I could watch them. I was very good at drawing pictures too. Sometimes I would just sit and draw for hours. Mom and dad got me an old school desk they were able to buy at some kind of second-hand sale. They thought it would be a good thing to have in my room for doing homework and my drawing. I actually liked having it in my room. It was convenient. |
