I haven't a voice the past three days (which said days included new years at the Robinetts - I talked zilch, laughed too much =P).  Yes, yes... I have a cold.  I've learned a couple things after losing (and somehow maintaining the fact) this voice of mine: 1) I talk more often than I should.  My lack of being able to express myself has shown me how often I shouldn't. 2) I need to think more before I express myself.  I tend to throw so much out there, speaking my mind when others may just (gasp!) actually not want to hear it.  Humility, Anna dear.  3)  I'm really grateful I have a voice.  When I do have one, of course.

My thought process right now: 1) I need to go do something useful and worthwile. 2)  I need to be journaling here more often... cause I've gotten way out of the habit, and I have sooo many thoughts I want to write down every morning I read during devotions.  I need to make this a bigger and better priority in my life than I am... especially due to the important fact that journaling was (IS!) my year's goal. =Z

This was good for me to read today... Advice for living life at home as an adult? This can be a great thing or it can be a horrible thing. What's really unfortunate about the whole topic is that there is this crowd of homeschoolers out there that has almost ruined the reputation of us "still-at-home-after-highschool" ers. When I say ruined our reputation, I mean ruined the way people as a whole think about young people living at home/not going away to the typical 4yr degree, secular college deal. They've almost ruined it because there is a large number of graduated girls (and guys, but we're just talking about the girls here so I won't get started on the guy problem) who do nothing but wash laundry, make dinner, and browse the web. Now, I'm not saying those things are bad. (I do each of them!) But if that's all you're doing there is a serious problem. I've seen way too many girls who have done that. You will look back year...
“God is God. … He is worthy of my worship and my service. I will find rest nowhere but in His will, and that will is … unspeakably beyond my largest notions of what He is up to.”
"I urge you, brother, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites." (Rom. 16:17, 18) How's my appetite?   Am I hungry for His Word, thirsting for time in His presence?? Desiring "meaty" teaching, and ready to eat what He puts before me?  I don't want to be one of "those who cause divisions" or one who is a walking obstacle for others beside me in the road of life... simply because of my change of appetite. Hungry for the world, and the things of it. Desiring to please myself, in place of the Lord.  Jesus, make me a JOY to be around because of what you are in me!  Don't let me fall into a place where others must "keep away from" because of my short-fallings, so that they may keep from the temptation of doing the same.  Be the constant change I need in my life...
