The Simple Woman's Daybook ~#72~ 3/29/10


For Today...

Outside my window...grey & drizzly. But...after today we will have a week of SPRING!! 60's tomorrow & 70's for the rest of the week. So far, the weather report says the Easter will be beautiful.

I am thinking...how sad it is that so many of my extended family members do not have Jesus as their Savior. NOT ONLY does it effect their character, their integrity, their speech, their habits, & their thinking & reasoning processes ~ but it effects their eternal destiny. I know there are no more tears in Heaven ~ PTL! ~ & it makes me wonder: Will the Lord wipe our memories clean of them so that we won't mourn their CHOICE of eternal destination OR, once we get to Heaven, will we be completely aware of the consequences of sin?

I am thankful for...my incredible DH, Ty, & my dear friends for loving me enough to completely & utterly trick me into a surprise birthday party at my favorite pizza place on Saturday!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!! After the terrible morning I had, I SO needed the joy you brought!

From the kitchen...Hmmm...I need to make a trip to the farm stores. :-/

I am wearing...my jammies. It's a dark, rainy, lazy morning.

I am remembering…what an honor & priviledge it is to be a wife & mom.

I am going...to take DD#2 to work & work the night-shift at my job tonight.

I am reading...my Bible, in Daniel.

I am hoping...Easter will go by w/o a hitch in the extended family dept. :-?

On my mind…learning as much as I can, as quickly as I can, on my new pt-time job. I'm enjoying it well enough, but there is SO MUCH to learn about all the products in a health food store.

I am creating...a Christ-centered, peaceful home.

I am hearing...the radio, the dryer, my typing fingers, DD#2 puttering around.

Noticing that…I need new glasses.

Pondering these words…"Thank goodness I was never sent to school; it would have rubbed off some of the originality" ~ Beatrix Potter.

Around the house...errands, making some more washing detergent, Monday house-hold duties, studying the manual for my job.

One of my favorite things...singing praise & worship.

A Scripture thought..."That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, inpersecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." ~II Cor. 12:10. And, if I might add: When I am weak, then HE IS STRONG!!

A few plans for the rest of the week...work, taking DD#2 to/from work, house-hold duties, EASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

This is not my uncle, but I had an uncle to would do this to his cats while he was milking & it was SUCH a great 'show'! lol

  1. I love to read these Simple Woman's Daybook's. They give such a sense of a person's heart. I feel like you about Easter. There is a part of me that gets a little anxious when a holiday arrives and we have to attend a big family get together. I really dread it this year since they are VERY liberal and I am sure Health care will be thrown up. I just pray for wisdom and patience!!

  2. Great post, Kim. I just finished praying for you and your job about an hour and a half ago! I love it how the Lord works things in our hearts like that. And I loved this picture today~ My grandfather would do the same thing! :)

  3. Hi Kim,
    I understand your heart regarding your
    unsaved family members. I come from a
    very large family and I am the only
    believer in Jesus Christ, same with
    my husband's family. We often talk about
    that. That's the reason I started a
    blog, in hopes my family would read it
    and find the Lord. So far a few are
    reading it.
    Love, love, love the picture of those
    darling cats getting the squirt of milk!!
    Sandy
