Simple Woman's Daybook- May 20, 2014

Haven't done this in a LONG time.
 

Tuesday, May 20, 2014

Outside my window... it is BEAUTIFUL. Perfect temp and a slight breeze.

I am thinking... about the end of the school year. YAY!!

I am thankful for... only minimal fibro pain today, skin that is clearing up, a meaningful Spring Tea, the support of my family and friends when I'm psycho, a God who loves me even though I'm undeserving.

From the kitchen... had tater tot casserole for dinner. Half of the family hated it.

I am wearing... jeans and a green shirt.

I am creating... nothing but hoping to find time to get my beads out tonight.

I am going... to clean up my kitchen and fold the laundry on my bed.

I am reading... Reading?? What's that? 

I am hoping... nothing. Not hoping anything at this moment.

I am looking forward to... my quiet moments after everyone is asleep, a picnic this weekend, finishing up school for the year, sleeping.

I am hearing... Star Wars the Clone Wars in the living room (boys), 19 Kids & Counting in the kitchen (Ali), and the clanging of silverware.

One of my favorite things... singing. I love touching hearts for Christ through song.

Praying for... way too much to list here. Lots of friends and family hurting or in need. Also, lots of praising going on!!

A Lyric or Two.. my newest favorite: Danny Gokey- Hope in Front of Me

(Lyric video below)

I've been running through rain that I thought would never end
Trying to make it on faith in a struggle against the wind

I've seen the dark and the broken places
But I know in my soul no matter how bad it gets
I'll be alright

There's hope in front of me
There's a light, I still see it
There's a hand still holding me
Even when I don't believe it
I might be down but I'm not dead
There's better days still up ahead
Even after all I've seen
There's hope in front of me

There's a place at the end of the storm you finally find
Where the hurt and the tears and the pain all fall behind

You open up your eyes and up ahead there's a big sun shining
Right then and there you realize you'll be alright

There's hope in front of me
There's a light, I still see it
There's a hand still holding me
Even when I don't believe it
I might be down but I'm not dead
There's better days still up ahead
Even after all I've seen
There's hope in front of me

There's a hope still burning
I can feel it rising through the night
And my world's still turning
I can feel your love here by my side

You're my hope
You're the light, I still see it
Your hands are holding me
Even when I don't believe it
I've got to believe

I've got to believe

I still have hope
You are my hope

A verse to share... 
You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you. Isaiah 26:3

A picture thought...

My table at the Spring Tea this past Saturday

A few plans for the rest of the week... School, soccer practice x2, soccer games x2, hanging out with my favorite 1 year-old, church, and a picnic with friends.

Join me! It's fun. Don't forget to link up.
