Good Morning Girls!

I simply love the idea that Courtney and Angela had to start Good Morning Girls! I love the facebook group that I've joined with other women from all over the country. We keep each other accountable to having our own quiet times and trying to daily read scripture.

From now until March we are also looking at 2 verses in the book of James each day (5 days a week). Its a fantastic way to kick off the new year, by digging deeper into God's Word. Feel free to join us: gmg-winter-session-begins-today

New Year ... New Study

I've found a few online resources to help keep me in the Word this year And I thought I should share them with my friends who are also online:

Blogger Friend School #13 - Meet My Bible

Nancy, over at The King's Kreation, has posted Assignment #13: Meet My Bible for Blogger Friend School. I've never done any of their assignments before but I thought I'd give this one a try:



1. How old is your Bible?
16 mos. old Its The New Womend Devotioanl Bible (NIV)

2. Why did you chose this Bible?
It was a birthday gift in 2006 from a dear dear friend. That friend knew I had lost a my previous Womens Devotioanl Bible, while on a road trip. Which by the way still breaks my heart, it had some special notes and pictures in it and it had been a gift from my mother in law (who I just love to pieces).

3. Do you highlight/mark passages in your Bible?
YES, I mark in everything I read. You should have seen the bible I lost ... notes everywhere!

4. If so, what is your system for marking passages?
I like to date when or where by the verse and I usually underline or highlight the important passages, and make my notes above or below or to the side, where ever there is space to write.

5. Do you have notebooks to record things?
Probably too many

6. If so, how many and what do you record?
I have one notbook for Sundays, one for bible study and one that is mostly my notes to God and notes on verses He is teaching me from.

7. Where is your favourite spot to read your Bible?
In my bed before I fall alseep or in my rocking chair (especially if I have a sleeping baby in my arms).

8. Are there any special thoughts about your Bible you want to share?
I was so touched that my friend got me this bible, it means a lot to me and I love the devotionals in it. I also have a NKJ, NASB, NIV, Amplified side by side bible to compare translations and I have a Message bible I like sometimes. I have an NIV study bible with lots of study notes that is helpful when I'm hung up or stumped by a verse. But this bible from my friend is the one I carry with me and use most often.
