Friday Thoughts

(photo credit: tribulation-now.org)

Week one and I actually made my goal of posting an update :)  Here's how I did on my goals for this week.

1) Finish reading "Mornings on Horseback" - Completed

2) Finish Ethan's red Angry Birds hat - Completed

3) Drink ~ 60oz of water per day - I ended up being closer to 40oz of water, which for me is still good I need to work on remembering to drink water throughout the day

4) Write down at least 2 things per day on my One Thousand Gifts list - Completed (I actually had more than 2 per day)

I've already been thinking about some goals for next week and will hopefully have them finalized and ready to post on Monday.

And now I had another thought I wanted to tack on here at the end.  I've been going thru a Mother/Daughter devotional with my girls and at the end of each week there is a "meditation moment" where the author gives a passage and some thoughts and then has you pray and meditate on that passage to see what God reveals.  Tonight as we were doing this we chose to pray thru the passage.  If you've never tried praying Scripture I'd highly recommend it.  Since, as I mentioned in my previous post, I lose focus easily; praying Scripture helps me to stay focused on praying and also helps me to focus on God and not so much on myself.  If you'd like to try this, the passage we prayed thru tonight is Psalm 139:1-6, a great encouragement to think of God's thoughts toward us.
