Day 6 of the Lamp & Light Photo Challenge

The book of Ruth is my all time favorite book of the Bible. Edging just past the book of Esther to first place. The story of Ruth reminds me to stay steadfast and faithful knowing that in any circumstance God is there and in control. What a comforting feeling through the storms of life. Ruth trusted where God had put her and continued to follow Him along the curvy path of her life. This is the reason I picked the book of Ruth as my "favorite book of the Bible" for today's challenge. If you haven't had a chance to read it, take the time to do so. You won't be disappointed. 

Day 2 Lamp & Light Challenge

Day 2 of the Lamp & Light Photo Challenge is "A Favorite Verse". While I have many this one stood out to me during this season of my life. I have allowed the storms and trials to take my focus off God and off His calling for me. This verse helps remind me of my daily duties and to find joy while doing them. It's hard to focus on the storms when you are busy taking care of those you love.

Day 1 of Lamp and Light Challenge

Today's Photo Challenge was "Your Bible". This is my church Bible. The one I take every Sunday and use at home doing devotions. The spots on the front are from where one of my daughters laid a Bath & Body works plug in on top of it. The oil leaked and ate away at the color. In the top spot I drew in the flower and the spot below says "Everything you need is inside these covers.... Read Me!". At first I was upset that my "perfect" Bible was flawed. Then God reminded me, that like the cover of my Bible I too am flawed. The words inside are still perfect, God word is perfect. Just as one day when I stand before God I too will be perfect as I have the Holy Spirit inside and Jesus took on my sins. Until that day I will leave each day flawed remembering only the Lord is perfect.
