Comfort

 

Hello World,

Today was not the best day.  Today I may have ended up in tears because of how this year has been for my sweet family.  Surgeries, family members with cancer, and so many hoops that as an educator I have to jump through.  These are small things in the grand scheme, but today it didn't feel so small.  Today I had one more hoop to jump through and I broke down.  What do you do when you finally have your breaking point?  How do you handle life's hardship?  

I would like to say that I immediately went to my Bible, but unfortunately I didn't.  I ate a Chic-Fil A Cookie with milk.  It was good, but it made me realize that maybe I should have gone to Jesus with these burdens.  Maybe I should have laid my sorrow, frustration, and hurt at His feet.  

As it is, I can still do that.  I can lay my sorrow, frustration, and hurt at His feet now.  When days are tough dear friends, when it seems the world is against you, and life just keeps kicking you down you can lay it all at the Lord's feet.  He'll carry you through, he'll be your listening ear, and the comfort you need.  This life is not easy and Christ never said it was, but He'll never leave you.  I promise you that.

Hebrews 13:5b                                                                                                                                               for he has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

My morning :)

 

Hello World,

I wanted to post my fun and quick way of getting ready.  Ladies and Gentleman!  Fast,

 easy and you’re off :)

Enjoy!

This year, books, MONAT, and more

 So I’m making the move to deactivate my account for Facebook.  If you are bummed about that or just wonder what I’ll be up to.  Please feel free to subscribe to my blog, where I’ll post crazy videos of my MONAT reviews, write about books that I’m reading, talk about what’s on my heart on Bible passages, and of course tell you all what my adorable kids and very hot husband are doing :)

So for the first but not the last, here is my review of MONAT’s Balance.

Enjoy!

Canon

This is Canon,  she is the most mellow dog.  I mean it, all she does is sleep and sneak around the house to end up by you and then lay down and sleep next to you.  Because of recent events she has been getting more time with the family, and I’ve noticed that this dog is an attention seeking, snuggle, ball loving maniac!  She cracks me up with her constant need to carry a ball in her mouth at all times.

When we’re bored in the house, we’ll play who will Canon go to.  My kids have tried their hardest to have Canon come to them.  They’ll bribe her with balls, peanut butter, bones, yelling Canon lets go for a walk, but (very selfishly) if I call her, she immediately leaves them and comes to me.
My ever faithful, loving pup,  I hope you all experience the love of a dog :)

Have a great night world,
Love,
The Jesus Book Girl

Shimmer

Hello World,
This morning started off with a rough start, the kids were grumpy.  Heaven forbid, I made them read!  Oh no!  I'm a horrible mother, to make them read!!!  The angry looks, the mumbling, and then I called my parents.  And like the child that I used to be, I grumbled and mumbled to them.  My kids are being mean, and you two have to start staying home, this is called a pandemic for a reason, and both of you are over 65!

It was a rough start to the day, and then my mom and dad prayed for me.  Such a simple thing, but after that like the beautiful sun that shone today for us, it broke through my mood and it got better.  Friends, do you have someone praying for you?  Even when you don't want them to?  Even when the clouds are covering everything that could be good, I hope you have someone in your life who will pray for you.  If not, let me be that person :)

So we ended the day with the kids playing in the sprinklers and begging to give the dog a bath :)  I'm blessed that the sweet light was pleasant to my eyes and that the sun was out.

PS Canon was not harmed or mistreated during the bath and she now smells like fresh linen, not really but she does smell better ;-)

Random

Hello World,
This may be the most surreal thing I've seen in a while.  If you don't know, my full time job is an orchestra director with a middle school here in Texas.  I teach four beautiful orchestras each day and I am blessed beyond belief by their bright intelligent wit and love for music.  Each day is new, and each day is a blessing to me because I get to do something that I love.

Today I packed up all my curriculum, instruments, and snacks and went back to my house to begin a new way of teaching.  To wait patiently while our school district works through the logistics of going online, and working remotely.  They have been doing so much, going above and beyond.  I'm grateful for all they've done, but the reality of it still hasn't settled in for me yet. 

As we all leap in to this unknown, I want to encourage you to look into the Word of God, the Holy Bible, the living breath of life.  I pray that you find hope, I pray that you look into this book called the Bible that gives you so much.  There is too much random things that are happening in this world for you to not search out the truth.  If you're looking for answers, I can guarantee the Bible is the one place that will give you them.
