Well... do you ever have weeks that you wish didn't exist when you are half way through them and then God ends up blessing your socks off (to coin Lisa's favourite phrase) because of it? I had one of those weeks this week. Work has been difficult and stressful and I have dreaded going in this week every morning, by Wednesday I was fit for nothing, useless. However, on Thursday I dragged myself out of my slump and went to GIFT. Mommy Diane was leading it this week and yes the journalling topic was very useful (funnily enough I had started journalling myself a few weeks back after reading through some of my old Bible Study Diary notes and needed the encouragment and suggestions) but I was blessed in more ways but one! We each picked a Bible verse out of a 'hat' in order to attempt to Journal with it! My verse could not have been more appropriate and I will share it with you now!
Philippians 4 vs 4
'Always be glad because of the Lord! I will say it again: be glad.'
I have since read on and found the next few verses important ones for me at the moment too. WOW! Our God is an awesome God!
Bless you all, ttfn, J9 xxx
