Long Time, No Post!

Wow, sorry for not posting anything lately... we are very busy this week! I don't even have much time to write a lot right now (busy day ahead of me!), but I just wanted to let everyone know I'm still here! LOL! I plan to post more soon... but for now I'll just have to leave you with a great Bible verse! :)

"How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth!"

Psalm 47:1-3

I hope you all are having a very blessed and wonderfully productive week!

A Quick Little Notice! : )

Hi everyone!

I just realized that I forgot to post my Young Maiden's Daybook for last Monday! I was already considering changing it to once a month because it's too hard for me to get it accomplished every week. So. . . I guess this is my "official" notice saying that from now on I will plan to do them the first Monday of each month. Will that work?!?! :) Hope no one minds the change! I'd like to try posting things more often again, but I can't make any promises! Our family has just been extremely busy the past few months!

So anyway, I hope you all have a blessed evening and Fourth of July weekend! God bless!

Urim and Thummim... Huh?

A few nights ago I decided to check out this book I got from church by an author named Robert J. Morgan. Now, I don't know anything about this man, so I can't recommend his work. I just saw the book and thought I'd give it a try! ;) It's called "From This Verse". It's a small 365-day reading plan with daily Scripture readings and testimonies of encouragement. So, I started on day 17 in January where it discussed the topic of the Urim and Thummim of the high priest in the Old Testament. He told about a man who explained that he wasn't completely sure what the two objects were. He only knew it was put on the breastplate of the high priest and that through it the high priest was able to discern the mind of God. He said that he found he could get the mind of the Lord nowadays by changing only two letters in the words. Here's his direct quote:

"I take the blessed Book, and just by "usin' and thummin'" I get the mind of theLord!"

Ha! Ha! I know, it's a little corny, but I thought it was worth sharing! :P
