day by day

"Day by day, and with each passing moment,
Strength I find, to meet my trials here,
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowement,
I've no cause for worry or fear.

He whose heart is kind beyond all measure,
Gives unto each day what He deems best -
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest."

-Karolina W. Sandell-Berg 'Day by Day'

project 365

I made a new blog to post my photos for this project.
Go have a look!

project 365 #1

One photo every day for a year. I am embarking on this new venture as a way of making sure I use my fancy camera everyday, become better at taking photos and to challenge my creative side.

columnists

I'm beginning to read columnists on newspapers online. Some I find meh, others crazy and others are quite thought provoking. Like this columnist with this and this. I think I might read more of her stuff in future. Very interesting.

be still and know

I want to do everything.
I want to do everything well.
God, growing, serving, Church, bible study, community, relationships, serving, work, loving, teaching, health, home, hospitality, family.
I think.
I read.
I plan.
I make to do lists.
I don't do things by halves.
I go over the top.
I lose sleep because of thinking or doing.
My body doesn't comply.
I feel tired.
Not much ticked off list.
Disappointment.
Worry, anxiety, sadness can come.
Overwhelmed.

I'm learning to be still, to know God, to trust.
My latest theme song.
