Thank you all so much for those of you who threw your name in the hat to win this WONDERFUL book. I am now a bit further into the book and let me tell you... it's a MUST read! Lisa walks you through step by steps on how she writes in the margins along with why. She also includes personal stories from other people who worship in this way as well! I wish I could give a copy to every SINGLE one of you who entered because I love it THAT much!!! But for today my winner is...



Congrats Sherrinda!!! Please email me at shannanoelATgmailDOTcom :) 



There are SO many beautiful quotes from this book that I have highlighted, written down and put to memory but one I wanted to share with you today..



For those of you who did not win, I noticed it is on sale on Amazon for only $13.51 with Prime! Which is an amazing deal for a book that can truly bring you to a better understanding about this new form of worship we have all fallen in love with!! If you are new to the idea of a journaling bible I would love for you to join us in our journaling bible community on facebook :)

Journaling Bible | Be Still


Thank you so much for stopping by today!! We are working on a series in church called Hope Quotient, and I am just loving it. This Sunday Pastor Chris talked to us about the verse in Psalms (46:10) "Be still and know that I am God" it is a favorite in our home (as I am sure many of yours as well). What Chris really wanted us to hear though was the "be still" part, in today's society it is important to take a sabbath day, and to use that day to focus on what is really important! But that isn't what I wanted to focus on for right now, in fact it was just ONE sentence that Pastor Chris said that really stuck with me, and this is something I think MANY of you will relate to.

"How do you have time for that? I can't, I have to much to do" 

How many of us have heard that when it comes to taking time to do project life, scrapbooking, or just being creative in any way. Pastor Chris pointed out that this train of thought comes from a place of pride. Like "my kids, my activities, my PTA can't go on without me". It's simply not true. You can take a day to RESTORE, RECHARGE, and REPLENISH. It really is ok, I promise. The world will not fall apart without you. 



During my class with Influence I was asked "what happens when you mess up?" As I was journaling in the sermon on Sunday I did JUST that and had to laugh because I said "just fluff it off" it will be fine!!!! I guess I was testing that theory! I wasn't really happy with how the "be still and know I..." came out I would much rather it say AM GOD in the same circle but you know what, that didn't work out that way and again I WILL BE JUST FINE!!! I promise :) 




go.chill.
