Whatever Your Hands Find To Do...

I made a dress this week.( My mother-in-law taught me.  I love her!  Ya, I love my mother-in-law).  I want to learn to sew so what better way than to make a dress with a matching bag.  Out of this project I learned patience, and that practice does make perfect :)  Making mistakes happen and taking the time to fix it makes a huge difference in the end!

Spiritual Goals for 2011 and Beyond

 http://martynballestero.com/2011/02/05/15-things-to-do-in-church-before-you-die/

I found this via facebook through Pastor Satterwhite. Very inspiring. There are quite a few points here where are needs in my personal walk with the Lord.

#1. Pray is and will always be one of them. "Pray without ceasing" I Thess 5:17

~This category I will work on all of the points.  However, I have never prayed anyone through to the Holy Ghost. In Jesus name, I pray I can be used of God in that service.

#4. Believe God

~I want to trust and believe God in all aspects of my life. I will believe that He will do miracles. 

*I thank you Jesus, for the miracles in my life so far.  You have done so much for me I can tell it all!

#5. Get Lost In The Spirit

I haven't gone home drunk in the Holy Spirit in SOOOOOOOOOOOO LONG!!!!  Praise Jesus!  I can't wait!

#6. Witness

I've been a major failure in this department.   Lord help me to be a witness. Open the doors of opportunity for me to lead souls to you. Lord, remind me that I am your child and that I am NOT of this world. Thank you, Jesus!

#8. Give

Lord, I pray that I can give my tithes. Open this door for me and open my husband's heart to trust you in all things.

#9. Read the Bible everyday. I cannot live on yesterday's manna!

#10. Testify. I'm shy. 

#11. Fast.  

#14. Forgive

~I need to let go of bitterness and the hurts from my past.

#15. Get the Pastor's Heartbeat

I'm praying for revival!  

Every single one of these goals can be achieved when I pray, pray, pray; be faithful; and read the word!  I'm ready for my husband to come to church and live for God, for my family members to be baptized in Jesus name and in the Holy Ghost!

 

JoJo The Wonder Pug

JoJo wearing the cone of shame due to hot spots

JoJo is my brindle pug. I got him since he was about 2 months old. He is two years old now. And still has much of his puppy behavior.
He is trained to sit, stay, and knows his bed. However, he sometimes refuses to obey. And, as many pugs do believes he can do no wrong.  He really believes that every soul on the planet loves him.
He's a great watch dog. If a stranger comes to the house they have to beware lest they get licked to death and jumped on.  Still working on that. So, if anyone has any suggestions on how to train a dog to not jump on visitors just leave a comment.
He loves to go for walks and car rides. He begs for attention. Snorts, chortles, snores all day and all night.

This is JoJO's first bath the day we brought him home.

This is him as puppy:

 

There will be more pictures as I go. 

As for now, he needs to be walked more often as he's put on the pounds this year!  

The Action Bible

Excited about Blogging

My experience with Blogging has been the occasional post to Myspace and Facebook. But, nothing as serious as Blogger :) I hope to find this quite rewarding as I relay my thoughts and feelings over the world wide web. No one will actually read this anyway. So, what do I care?

I hope to journal about the wonderful works of God, a little prayer journaling, friendly banter, maybe even a bit of venting every now and then. Why not?
