    December Scripture-A-Week

    Once again I’m late getting this post up. So now that its December, here is your December Scripture-A-Week. I have been so busy the last month that I never got to share with you about why I’m so busy. Instead of continuing to say I’ll share it in another post, I’m just going to share it briefly here. I got a new job… It’s actually in the same department that I’m in, but it’s a promotion. It’s a lot more stress, but a lot more job satisfaction. And right now I’m doing 2 jobs, my old job and my new…

    November Scripture-A-Week

    So how are y’all? I’m honestly feeling stressed, but instead of worrying I’m trying to pray and read and study scripture. Being disciplined is so hard when life just takes over and you get your priorities out of wack. I love that these scriptures help remind me what is truly important. I hope to share some stuff that’s been going on with me soon, so keep an eye out for that. Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives…

    October Scripture-A-Week

    I just realized this didn’t get posted on the 15th like its supposed to. September is probably my craziest month of the year and this year is worse. I take team and individual photos for the local travel soccer league and that eats up all my free time in August and September. I’m currently dealing with an issue with one of the companies that prints the Memory Mates. It’s always one thing after another! I’ve also had a lot going on with my job, which I’ll might share with you later. So with just these things, my stress meter is…

    September Scripture-A-Week

    Hey ya’ll! Hope everyone is having a great week! Here’s your September scripture a week sheet. These can be used to memorize, to post around the house as reminders of God’s love, etc! The follow words resonated with me. I hope they touch your heart like they did mine. Happy Fall, Y’all! Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” ~Hebrews 13:5 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. ~Psalm…

    August Scripture-A-Week

    Here’s the next Scripture a week post for the coming month of August. I know for August much of the south will be returning to school. Teachers, administrators, janitors, bus drivers, and students gear up for another school year. While most parents are glad to have their kids back to a more structured schedule, many parents are reluctant to have to get back into all that comes with school and the after work activities that happen during the school year. With all that being said, I’ve gathered some more verses for us to pray over and possibly memorize during the…

    July Scripture-A-Week

    While thinking of July, I think of how grateful I am to live in America. Even with all the drama and politics, I am happy to be free. So I was feeling a freedom theme. As an American, I know I take my freedom for granted, so I was thinking finding a couple scripture related to freedom would help me to remember something I don’t often think of. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. ~2 Corinthians 3:17 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm,…

    June Scripture-A-Week

    I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve posted a scripture a week. Not sure why that is. Maybe because end of April and May are just so busy. End of year concerts, ceremonies, recitals, etc. As I searched through scripture to memorize for June I found several that spoke to my heart. I think I say that every month, but it is so true. I really take quiet time and pray and ask God to place scripture on my heart for not only me but for you as my readers. I found this last month or so with my…

    April Scripture-A-Week

    How are you enjoying Spring? Has it started raining a lot where you are? We haven’t had a ton of rain, but I know North Alabama has had an abundance of rain. With April I expect to see lots more overcast, gloomy day and lots of rain puddles. I love this quote about from Dolly Parton about rain and rainbows. The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain. ~Dolly Parton Here are the 5 scriptures I plan to memorize for April… I will send rain on your land in its season,…

    March Scripture-A-Week

    How’s is going so far for February’s Scripture-A-Week? If you’re not familiar with how Scripture-A-Week works check out my post here. I’ll have to say I started off great! I had my scriptures written in several places the first few weeks. I put it in my car, on the fridge, on the bathroom mirror. I was rocking it! Then, life got busier and by Thursday one of the weeks, I realized I hadn’t started or even thought about my scripture. So this goal is like anything else, you have to make time for it in your daily schedule. I start…

    February Scripture-a-Week

    How are you coming along so far with your Scripture-A-Week? So far I am doing great. I have found myself thinking about it quite a few times throughout the day. When I’m starting to feel stressed or sad for one reason or another I refer back to scripture sheet for encouragement. I love having these scriptures as part of my daily life as I feel God working in my life, which is amazing. It’s also motivated me to go to the Bible more often as well. How have you seen this Scripture-A-Week goal affect your life so far? I know…

    Keeping Up with Your Goals

    Remember back when we brainstormed about the new year? Many of you expressed you’d like a way to keep yourself accountable, so I finally came up with a printable sheet to help you with that! This printable sheet can be used for 2 weeks, just cut it half. I like that because I can easily fold it and keep it in my purse to refer back to. I keep one of these Crayola 5 Count Washable Triple Tip Markers in my purse to make the 3 different colors depending on how I feel I’m doing with these things throughout the…

    Checklist Planner for Busy Moms

    One of my New Year’s Resolutions was to be more organized and my word for the year is FINISH. Part of that is just having a plan of action each day to ensure that what needs to get done, actually does. I came up with this Checklist Planner to help me out each day. It has a place for what I need to accomplish in the mornings and in the evenings, as well as what I plan to blog about, what I plan to have for lunch and dinner, among other important reminders.
