Joyful Journal September 12, 2008

Hosted by Danielle at My Name is Danielle



A memorable moment… Running into an old friend, that I haven't seen in over 20 years and having him recognize me right away! When I look in the mirror, I don't always see likeness to myself that long ago. To me, 50 looks a lot different than 30! It was fun to know that there was still some of that 30 year old on the outside!


I am grateful… for God's love. I am also grateful for friends and family. I have a job interview this afternoon - in the same city I live in - and I am very grateful for that. I am praying that this position will be a "fit" on both sides!

I laugh… On Monday one of the daycare kids, who had helped his mom work in the flower bed on Sunday, told us that his mom had sprayed for bugs in her flower bed. He explained that she was "protecting" the bugs by spraying!

I remember… A conversation with my son this week. I am concerned about him because of the changes he has made within the last couple of years. He has an amazing heart and great potential and I worry that he doesn't live up to that potential. I pray daily for him to accept Christ as his personal Savior and for him to realize his strength and to use it to the fullest in everything he does.


I love… Fall! I love the cooler weather, overcast skies, rain storms and misty mornings! This is my favorite season of the year.


I will celebrate… Joyfully - especially if I gain employment this last day of the week! I need a job and continue to pray that God will send me to the place where I can best serve!

This is a picture of my great-aunt's hands as she was teaching a Bible class a couple of years ago. She passed away earlier this year and I love this picture. God was the focus of her life and she was such an awesome person. She is missed by many!

  1. Thanks so much for participating. That was an awesome photo!!! Sometimes we forget when we photograph that there are other angles which will speak much more than the typical ones. Am praying you get the job that is best suited for you!!!

  2. What a beautiful picture of your aunt's hands.

    I, too, love fall. Today, I started getting out the fall decorations - but it's so windy outside that I can't put up the cornstalks, etc., so some of the decorating will have to wait.

    I hope all went well with the interview.
