Well, I figured you’d be math or music smart, but nature is great. You can get in tune with yourself.
Howdy, Kathy.
Did you need to use the fire extinguisher at work yet or did no fires pop up?
LOL - cute. I love play on words.
Howdy, Kathy! (((hugs)))
Thanks for the ping-a-ling! Hope today didn’t kick your butt! It would be nice to have a quiet week for a change, huh!
First chance I’ve had to get my laptop out, so the ping is late...a BAD day!
Gonna be a long night. It was snowing on my way to work, but the sun has been out and they say rain is coming.
Bummer. I’d hoped things would go smoother than they obviously did.
That result was just the opposite of me, I swear, honest! 😁😁😁
Slow day here, just did one errand and then chilled.
'Sup with you?
Mehbeh?
You may not even consider yourself to be traditionally smart, but you understand this world better than most people.
You are the type of person who experiences learning by doing. You love to study the natural world around you.
You probably take care of plants and animals with ease. You intuitively sense what they need most.
You enjoy hands on science, especially when experiments are involved. You need to find out everything for yourself.
Bible in a Year: Joshua 4–6; Luke 1:1–20
You turned my wailing into dancing; you . . . clothed me with joy. Psalm 30:11
Kim began battling breast cancer in 2013. Four days after her treatment ended, doctors diagnosed her with a progressive lung disease and gave her three to five years to live. She grieved, sobbing prayers as she processed her emotions before God for the first year. By the time I met Kim in 2015, she had surrendered her situation to Him and radiated contagious joy and peace. Though some days are still hard, God continues to transform her heart-wrenching suffering into a beautiful testimony of hope-filled praise as she encourages others.
Even when we’re in dire circumstances, God can turn our wailing into dancing. Though His healing won’t always look or feel like we’d hoped or expected, we can be confident in God’s ways (Psalm 30:1–3). No matter how tear-stained our path may be, we have countless reasons to praise Him (v. 4). We can rejoice in God, as He secures our confident faith (vv. 5–7). We can cry out for His mercy (vv. 8–10), celebrating the hope He’s brought to many weeping worshipers. Only God can transform wails of despair into vibrant joy that doesn’t depend on circumstances (vv. 11–12).
As our merciful God comforts us in our sorrow, He envelops us in peace and empowers us to extend compassion toward others and ourselves. Our loving and faithful Lord can and does turn our wailing into worship that can lead to heart-deep trust, praise, and maybe even joyful dancing.
What’s the source of true peace and joy? What does it mean for you to truly surrender your all to God?
Well, that sounds crazy and nasty all around! Get home safely and then try to kick back a bit and relax!
Riiiiiiiiiiight. *snicker*
Sounds like our day was about the same. Slow here, too, and I had one errand to run.
A little housework between rounds of sitting down to watch brand-spankin’-new behbeh eagles.
Tomorrow is grocery day. What we all love to do.
NOT!
Music Smart
I think it was browse the music store that did it as I play guitar and ukulele.
Whew! Need sunglasses for that bright “woohoo”. LOL
I was payin’ attention this time. :-)
Awesome! A nature lover is always a good way to be. I like nature, too...as long as it’s not TOO nature-y. LOL!
LOL! It is briight, but since spring is kite-flyin’ time..... :)
I am definitely word smart. An employee once told me that I could tell him to go to hell, and he’d look forward to the trip.
