Creating Perhaps getting started on my scrapbook
What am I creating:::
I was married in 1972 and at the time paying for a luxury like a photography was out of reason so I had friends take some photos. Over the years they had become scrambled in several places.. Saturday I found them and got them all in a baggy. I want to go to Michael's and get a photo scrapbook and make a wedding scrapbook for myself...
Looking forward to:::
Community Bible Study starts up for the year tomorrow.. I found out a very good friend will be in my small group... I love this large group of women who are seeking to unpack the scriptures and live until the Lord.
Looking around the house:::
It looks pretty good except for the thins film of dust on the tables... I will definitely dust today! And I would like to decorate my fall tree in the living room today! I got my October issue of Victoria Bliss and it really is full of autumnal inspiration!
From the camera:::
I couldn't believe my eyes when as I was researching my maiden surname line on Ancestry.com I found this oil painting of my 5th great grand father.. I photoed it and have already framed it and put it on my mantel... He lived in the early 1700's in Lower Saxony, around Brunswick, Germany, and very likely was a bookkeeper. His name is Jacob.
What I'm wearing today:::
Capri's and a tee shirt.
Thinking about:::
I am excitedly thinking about some online purchases that will be delivered this week.. I bought items from Coldwater Creek, Land's End and Amazon.
Bible verse, Devotional, prayers:::
from Pastor Curt Landry
What power does the Body of Christ want to manifest as we rise up in intercessory prayer for those in the path of hurricane Dorian? What supernatural force does God want to activate when we pray Psalm 91 in agreement, having this passage written this day in the Court of Mercy in Heaven?
As hurricane Dorian’s path seems to be shifting and is yet to be determined by meteorologists, this does not mean we lay dormant, waiting to see what will happen.
Instead, let us activate the power we have to make a shift in the atmosphere! It is our honor to pray for you, just as you’ve prayed for and supported us. We are going to choose to believe this day that Psalm 91 be recorded in the Courts of Heaven.
We pray for
- The Bahamas
- All throughout Florida
- The Carolina’s
- Georgia
Let us come into covenant agreement, praying Psalm 91 in the Spirit:
“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress;
my God, in Him I will trust.’
my God, in Him I will trust.’
Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
and under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
nor of the arrow that flies by day,
nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
and from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
and under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
nor of the arrow that flies by day,
nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
and ten thousand at your right hand;
but it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
and see the reward of the wicked.
and ten thousand at your right hand;
but it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
and see the reward of the wicked.
Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,
even the Most High, your dwelling place,
no evil shall befall you,
nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
for He shall give His angels charge over you,
to keep you in all your ways.
In their hands they shall bear you up,
lest you dash your foot against a stone.
You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

‘Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
With long life I will satisfy him,
and show him My salvation.'”

Covering You with a Prayer of Protection, Safety, and Refuge from Hurricane Dorian
The Bible says that when we come together in agreement and ask the Father in Heaven for favor, He is faithful.
“Again, I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.”—Matthew 18:19
Let us not forsake the importance of the power of prayer we have during this hour. What the enemy wants is for us to walk in fear, but God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of sound mind. Let our earthly minds adopt shift and renounce any fear, receiving the mind of Christ—confident, secure, and assured.
Coming into Agreement with Psalm 91.
- Boldly come to Almighty’s throne right now. Ask with confidence for the grace and mercy that those in the path of hurricane Dornian need in such a time as this.
- Pray Psalm 91 in the Spirit. Choose to believe every utterance of this Word.
- Rest in His refuge. When we rest in His dwelling the place, no plague of fear can come near us.

What a treasure to find that painting! I'm sure I had The Inheritance on a reading list at some point but I'm not sure I ever actually read it - will have to request it from the library again. How do you scrapbook? Traditionally (like Creative Memories or Heritage Makers albums), Project Life-type pocket scrapbooking or digitally. So many options these days. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI meant to ask where you found your weather graphic - I love it, so colorful!
ReplyDeleteDorian - hoping it'll pass quickly and with as little damage as possible.
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that to find that painting of your great-uncle? I think a scrapbook of your wedding is a wonderful idea. Have a great week
