Today, I am continuing to try to live out (continuing to have to start over) the challenge that Beth Moore issued on Monday, to go all day without complaining or criticizing anyone.
I am continuing to try to personalize that challenge and to work on my countenance and tone of voice.
I am continuing to work on my memory verses and meditate on other scripture and spend time praying about my attitude and about what God would have me do.
(from Jesus)
As the Father has loved me,
so have I loved you.
Now, remain in my love.
If you obey my commands,
you will remain in my love,
just as I have obeyed my Father's commands
and remain in his love.
I have told you this so that my joy
may be in you and that your joy
may be complete.
My command is this:
Love each other
as I have loved you.
John 15:9-12NIV
Today, I am counting it all JOY that on this, yet another snow day at home, I got to eat Taco Soup and Green Chille and Cheese Omelet with my son at 10:00 a.m.
Today, I am counting it all JOY that I found a recipe from Jennifer at www.thehomematters.blogspot.com
and made the delicious Polkadots.(fudge cookies with white chocolate chips)
What is filling you with JOY today?
It is a true JOY to read other joyful posts, so go here to share in the JOY!!!
Thank you, Angel!
