Something’s Happening

Posted by: beaner927 on: April 30, 2007

Have you ever been hit from all sides by something? Well, I have been this past week. I’ve been praying for God to make some things clear to me & He’s hit me with something 3 times now – I can’t NOT act on it!
So….what is this insight? It’s a book called ‘Irresistable Revolution: Living [...]

Every Day is a New Day

Posted by: beaner927 on: April 26, 2007

Because of some recent events in my life, coupled with a Women’s Servant Group Devo & a Nooma video (Sunday), I decided last night as I lay in bed praying, that I was going to start today off with a new attitude. I would henceforth have a bright & sunny disposition. God has filled my [...]

My Complex

Posted by: beaner927 on: April 23, 2007

I have a Paul complex. I just don’t get him most of the time. He seems a little too…….fake. Now I am not saying that he WAS fake, I just have a hard time relating to him. Especially that whole “I’ve learned to be content in all circumstances.”
David is my man. I “get” this guy. [...]

Eight seems like such a big number to me. Maybe that’s because today is Nick’s 8th Birthday. Today, I see that my baby boy is really a “big kid” now. For his birthday, Nick got a video game & some comics. He went to school decked out in his camo outfit. He writes in cursive, [...]

I pilfered this quote from Joel Quile’s Blog (I don’t know who said it, but it bears repeating A LOT!)

Friday Devotional

Posted by: beaner927 on: April 5, 2007

I know it’s only Thursday, but the kids have the day off of school & I’ll be busy. Since Friday is Good Friday, I hope that you will spend some time thinking about the sacrifice that Jesus made for all of us. Thank You, Jesus, for ALL you’ve done.
The Power of the Cross

New Show to Watch

Posted by: beaner927 on: April 4, 2007

On Monday, April 9th at 8 pm Central Time, my husband & I will be watching a new show on NBC called ‘Thank God You’re Here’. It is an improv comedy show and theatre at it’s (sometimes) funniest. It’s acting w/o a script – being spontaneously funny & witty. It’s also the scariest thing out [...]
