Simple Woman's Daybook

Monday, September 6, 2010

Outside my window... nice, cool evening.

I am thinking... about the busy week ahead

I am thankful for ... the simple and unexpected ways that the Lord speaks to us

From the learning rooms... The planner is filled out (for 3 weeks). Pages are marked. Pencils are sharpened. The calendar is updated. Tomorrow is our first day of school. :)

From the kitchen... cake, cake, & cake. Did I mention cake?? (two down, two more to go.)

I am wearing... white pj pants with pink flowers & a white v-neck tee.

I am creating... a cocker spaniel webkinz cake & a camo cake.

I am going... to relax, be patient, & not overwork everyone like I normally do at the beginning of a school year.

I am reading... almost done with a book!! Been reading Sunrise F O R E V E R!!! Can't wait to return it to the library. lol

I am hoping... everyone (mostly Alison) cooperates our first day of school, tries their best, and has a good time.

I am hearing... a song from Jumong (seh songee, nal orah hah neh) on my youtube playlist.

One of my favorite things... Old architecture.

Praying for... several different friends who have spoken & unspoken requests. Seems like so many of my friends are dealing with difficult issues. Also praying for myself- that I would be patient with the kids, that I would make good use of my time, and that I would be Q U I E T when in an argument with Mike.

A Lyric or Two...

You're Not Shaken- Phil Stacey (video following lyrics)

I am sinking in a river that is raging.

I am drowning will I ever rise to breathe again.

I wanna know why?

I just wanna understand.

Will I ever know why?

How could this be from your hand?

When every little thing that I had dreamed would be just slips away like water through my hands.

And when it seems the walls of my believe are crashing down like they're made of sand

I won't let go of you now because I know

You're not shaken.

I am trembling in the darkness of my own fears.

All the questions with no answers still grip me while I'm here.

And I may never know why?

No I may not understand.

But I will lift up my eyes

And trust this is your plan.

When every little thing that I had dreamed would be just slips away like water through my hands.

And when it seems the walls of my believe are crashing down like they're made of sand

I won't let go of you now because I know

You're not shaken.

And when I am in the valley

of the shadow of death

You're not shaken.

You're not shaken.

You're right here beside me.

And you have never left.

You're not shaken.

When every little thing that I had dreamed would be just slips away like water through my hands.

And when it seems the walls of my believe are crashing down like they're made of sand

I won't let go of you now because I know

You're not shaken.

No, You're not shaken.

You're not shaken.

Oh You're not shaken.

A verse to share... A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.”
Proverbs 31:10

A few plans for the rest of the week... school, deliver cake, school, prayer group, choir practice, school, surgeon shoulder check-up, cake, school, cake, co-op mom's night/info meeting,
