One Word 2015-My Word is "Rest"


     I have seen several who have chose "one word" for the new year.  I have done this hit or miss but this year I felt led to choose one and my one word for 2015 is "REST".  I have felt so overwhelmed especially lately and I feel God has led me to this word and to rest in Him.



 I chose REST because I must remember God is with me. He hasn’t left me and I must stop worrying over things I cannot control. "We need rest not just to practice the presence of God internally, but to guard against the negativity of the enemy and the negativity of other people.

Psalms 37:7 Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

I can't be the Wife, Moma, Mamaw, Teacher, Leader, Friend, nothing if I don't have rest. Not just physical rest but also spiritual rest, resting in the Lord.  This is my word and my goal for 2015.

God bless,
Pat

The Simple Woman's Daybook ~ December 1st Edition


For Today
December 1st, 2014


Outside my window... evening has came, it is a cold misty night with a few stars

I am thinking...  of so many things I need to get done this week

I am thankful... for ones that always know right when I need a friend

I am wearing... bluejeans and a polka dot turquoise pocket T

I am creating... things for Christmas program this Sunday night at church

I am going...to work on Bulletin and last minute things for program

I am wondering... how to approach changes that must be made

I am reading... my bible

I am hoping... to find time today to read just to read

I am learning... that it is ok to ask for help and sometimes to say no

Around the house... getting ready to decorate for Christmas

In the kitchen... dishes waiting on my attention

I am pondering... changes for next year 2015

A favorite quote for today... 
Pray, pray and then pray some more

One of my favorite things... listening to the sounds of my grands

A few plans for this week: Finishing program stuff for Children's performance this Sunday night, Christmas party the next week and newsletter for Mom's group

A peek into one of my days from last week... 
Quiet peaceful morning as the sun comes up and before the busyness of life!

Taking a Break to see if I want to continue

I am taking a break from here.  I am not sure if I want to continue or if my blog is another thing that is just a thing of the past.  I ...
