Some of my many random thoughts tonight, after skimming through old website bookmarks...




wow...these words bear truth of my soul... I am convinced they speak many lengths of truths in how I have intended to live this humble life of mine. This is beautiful to have stumbled upon. ~> Hope someone significant remembers to read this at my celebration of LIFE...when i've ceased to exist. You will then agree to these words and say yes...that is the t:. that I know.... t:.:

PRAYING THE WORD FOR MY HUSBAND

I love structure and I love God’s Word. Put the two together and you have a beautiful thing when it comes to prayer. Here are seven Scripture-based prayers you and I can pray to God on behalf of our husbands.
That he would be given the STRENGTH he needs to fulfill his mission.
Mighty God, grant my husband courage and the ability to find His strength in you. I pray he would not fear nor be dismayed and He would remember that You are always with Him. Holy Spirit, strengthen him with power his inner being. (Ephesians 3:16; 6:10, Joshua 1:6-9)
That our MARRIAGE would be strong.
Jesus, show my husband what it looks like to love me as you loved the church. Help me to love and serve him with a submissive and respectful heart. (Ephesians 5:25-33)
That he would THRIVE in his ministry and personal life.
I pray that he would be rooted and grounded in your love for him, as he ministers to others. I ask that you would provide friendships which sharpen and encourage him. (Ephesians 3:17, Proverbs 27:17)
That he would have great WISDOM as he leads.
God grant him the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation. May he always fear you, receive instruction in wisdom, and honor through humility. Provide wisdom through friends and mentors he can walk alongside. (Ephesians 1:17, Proverbs 15:33, Proverbs 13:20)
That I would always have a THANKFUL heart toward my husband.
Lord I thank you for my husband. Grant me a heart of thankfulness for him that transcends every season, so that in every moment I would not cease to give thanks for him. (Ephesians 1:16)
That he would have a FRUITFUL walk with God that overflows into his ministry.
Holy Spirit, fill every crevice of my husband’s heart with the fullness of you. Enable him to keep in step with your every move, and to crucify the desires of his flesh. Bring great fruit in his life as he obeys and depends on you. (Ephesians 3:19, Galatians 5:16-25)
That God would be his SAFEGUARD from the enemy.
God, make my husband sober-minded, watchful, and clothed with your protective armor, that he may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. (1 Peter 5:8, Ephesians 6:11-18)
Learn how to make your house a palace, no matter how humble it may be. Learn how to be a good cook. Dress like you are going on a date as much as you possibly can so you look fresh when he comes home. Learn how to be a good mother to your children, learn how to encourage your husband in the Word of God.

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...
