Revelation...huh?!

So then when I read this chapter I had a weird visual of these "living creatures". They didn't seem very 'perfect' looking if they were covered in multiple eyes. (Isn't everything in heaven....perfect?) So as they are aitting there on their thrones with the other 24 elders the living creatures SPEAK and say amazing things about God. And they do this over and over and over...forever. And after every time they say this the elders fall to their knees. Ouch!!!! Dad- can you help me out? 

20 days down ! Woohoo

Whew, that scripture.  Thank you, Jesus! 

I should be done tonight or tomorrow morning with the whole New Testmanent. 21 days of spending time in Gods word has been so awesome! No to go BACK and dig deeper in each book would be a great idea. There is so much and I am so humbled by the Father. It was hard for me to get on here and share what I was learning. I almost felt that this was meant to be between us and for me to grow. I believe I have. In church today at City Light he went over John chapter 7 and all 52 verses. It was so great to have read it already and hear him elaborate. I know that I will NEVER learn it ALL in 21 days, I believe you will learn something new every time you read a chapter or verse. This will NEVER get old, amen!

Blessed Assurance

My king is coming soon

He will roll the clouds away

Light of heaven bursting through

- oh, what a glorious day. 

This song by Matthew West came to mind when I had steve pull the car over on the Jefferson bridge so I could snap photos of the beautiful sky. They looked like rolling waves of clouds.

 

I have been challenged by many friends near and far to complete "21 day bible reading." And in those 21 days I will read all of the New Testament. I couldn't wait- I began my reading this evening. Steve took Ellie downstairs for movie time so I could have alone time. During this 21

Days you are asked to fast from certain things that take your focus off your spiritual walk and to participate in the Daniel fast diet. (Look that one up) 

I can always think of many ways as to why I don't fit in reading the word. I'm too tired in the morning, too late at night, Ellie's bothering me, I can't focus on getting into the word when I need to try to focus on exercising and getting healthy, it's just too much, Steve is working late, wait- I just don't remember to, I will read it on Sunday....and on and on. Come on, I'm not alone. 

But what better way to begin a new year than to dig into Gods word, plug

In, maybe even have a breakthrough. I ask to be held accountable-reminded to do it. When I try to set myself

Up to do something new,

Put my focus into it I just give up so many days in and then feel like a failure. 

So--here's to 2015 with God at my side like He has always been. Just trying to put my perspective back  in line. 

Long time, time flies
