I am thinking.
I am so glad I purchased my new journalling Bible yesterday...
I will spend time with it today for sure!
' The Inspire Bible is a single-column, wide-margin New Living Translation Bible that will be a cherished resource for coloring and creative art journaling. It is the first Bible of its kind―with over 400 beautiful line-art illustrations spread throughout the Bible. Full-page and partial-page Scripture art is attractively displayed throughout the Bible, and the illustrations can be colored in to make each Bible unique, colorful, and customizable. Every page of Scripture has two-inch-wide margins, with either Scripture line-art or ruled space for writing notes and reflections, or to draw and create. The generous 8.65-point font ensures optimal readability, and quality cream Bible paper is great for creative art journaling.'

For example, this gorgeous merengue cake... made with several kinds of merengue and filled with fruited cream!
I am reading...
My new Inspire Bible...I must say I was a bit concerned about the NLT, but it actually is so much improved over the Living Bible. And I enjoy reading various trnslations!
I am listening to...

I am hoping...
that my order from Serengeti arrives soon... I am anxious to see the new jacket and skirt I ordered to wear to Dooble Bug's dedication!
I am learning...
to bring every thought captive to the Lord and allow Him to transform my mnd.... that is after the battlefield of the soul.

In the kitchen...
I am on a journey online and through mom's cookbooks to find Grandma's apple sauce cake recipe....I want to bake it to take to our Sunday School class refreshments day in September....
In my garden~
soggy mess.... and all a tangle with weeds and vines... the vinca vine has taken over my flower bed, along with the morning glories...

Closing Notes
Psalm 42
As a deer pants for flowing streams,
so pants my soul for you, O God.
My soul thirsts for God,
for the living God.
When shall I come and appear before God?
My tears have been my food
day and night,
while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
These things I remember,
as I pour out my soul:
how I would go with the throng
and lead them in procession to the house of God
with glad shouts and songs of praise,
a multitude keeping festival.
Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
My soul is cast down within me;
therefore I remember you
from the land of Jordan and of Hermon,
from Mount Mizar.
Deep calls to deep
at the roar of your waterfalls;
all your breakers and your waves
have gone over me.
By day the Lord commands his steadfast love,
and at night his song is with me,
a prayer to the God of my life.
I say to God, my rock:
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning
because of the oppression of the enemy?”
As with a deadly wound in my bones,
my adversaries taunt me,
while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.

I haven't seen that Bible edition before. Immediately, I can think of three or four friends that would love it. I will have to poke around for it.
