Little Girls

I know that in reality I should be snuggled up in my bed ready to go to sleep, but tonight I just felt like staying awake for a while to let my brain run for a little bit longer. I have a lot on my mind, some of it I choose to keep inside my head for further "cooking" - and other parts I choose to relinquish to you all. 

Some of you may have read a couple of posts from my blog - hands and feet. I have only made like four posts ever since I started it, but I think I'm going to pick it back up and make it a goal to make two posts a month at the least. My GOALS of this goal is to work on my writing skills, and regularly search and stretch my photography skills(?). 

Tonight I had a lot of fun with the girls - we played soccer, ran around outside, I finished my scarf that I was knitting, and we got to talk about the bible today. They are now able to tell you what all of the plagues were, and how God chose to show his power to the Egyptians. Whether or not they'll remember them tomorrow is another story. I thank God for opening up time to teach them more about Him, and I plan to ask them questions about it on Tuesday. 
It has been a total privilege to teach them more about God by talking to them about Him and answering their questions about Him. I was scared today that they weren't going to want to have our Friday bible lesson but God made time for it and I'm so glad. 


Thomas and I have only 79 more days to go of singleness - finally we will be married! And as for my singleness now, I hope that I will deepen my relationship with the Lord and figure out some things that might be nice to figure out before January 1st. Whatever happens between now and then I know that Thomas and I have the Lord to look to for everything and anything we need. I have my spurts of doubt, worry, and fear, but God's love is greater than all fear so I know that I must trust completely in Him. 


1 John 4:18
"There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love."
