Maybe I won't stop telling! I have so much to tell and so much I get to experience that being super private is almost overrated........that dawned on me...oh, yesterday.
I cut my dogs nails for the first time tonight! Scariest event ever. I felt like I was going to make her bleed internally or something. I also tried to brush her teeth, but that didn't go so well.
I'm madly in love with dogs. Aren't you?!
I finished all of my Christmas shopping and made special stocking bags this year. So cute, so perfect, if I do say so myself.
Watched the Lunar Eclipse last night, although it felt creepy outside, my husband and I had a special talk under the jet black sky that made standing in the cold completely worth it.
I also listened to a special memory last night that I had recorded on my iphone, which made me emotional, but it was a nice moment with the Lord. Reminiscing with God is so moving.
To recap the week I have been stretched, watered, humbled, moved and encouraged....I am standing planted on the promises of God and my soul is so comfortably reclined at His feet. I like how it feels to be my soul. I like how it feels to be surrounded with the knowledge of God. The knowledge of God is knowing who He is, who He says He is and silencing everything else that comes against it.
On another note entirely, I'm very much looking forward to Christmas, but it kind of makes me sad because there's this big rush for it to get here and then it's over. Similiar to your wedding day....after December waves goodbye and the New Year says, "hello!" you're left with a weird "now what?" feeling.
This year I feel very differently, tho.....not about Christmas, but about 2011! I'm so..stoked for it...stoked is so the appropriate word for how I feel, even though it's not the most graceful term. "I'm riding a wave and I'm STOKED!" Haha!
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this fire side moment brought to you by Christmas time!
To all a good night and make it a warm one!
Love,
Lil' ol' cozy me- BC

Stretched, watered, humbled, move and encouraged.... standing planted on the promises of God and my soul is so comfortably reclined at His feet. Wow! What a beautifully illustrated picture. How can a statement like this not cause any reader to examine where they are with God. You my beautiful Bethie are also stretching, watering , humbling and encouraging others. With tears streaming down my face I say to you my life is richer today from having read this. You are wise beyond your years. Your Aunt Ressie is with you..... I too am standing on His promises, and my soul is comfortably reclined at His feet. I cannot imagine any better place to be except in His arms one day! Keep all these things ever before you and one day write a book. I will gladly buy it and distribute it freely.... I am that blessed by your writing! I love you, immensely. Inspired...... Aunt Ressie
