I think I got it!

I'm happy to announce I finally got my layout figured out and I now have a knew one as you can tell! =D I have a few more kinks to work out with changing my font to a color you can actually see! I will do it manually for now until I can figure out how to actually Html it in haha So I was thinking about Prayer and the Bible, a guest speaker came to my church he was talking about how he was in the soviet union when it was still communist and how he lost his bible and God being the great God he is supplied him miraculously with one. He talked about how he sat next to a person smuggling in bibles and how he saw it was new and thought she doesn't need that bible, the pages are sticking together, she doesn't even use it. She gave him that bible and that was just what he needed God put that right in front of him. As I came home I kept thinking back to what he said about the pages sticking together and how she doesn't even use it when people are hungering to read God's word. Guilt washed over me as I realize I don't read my bible as much as I need to. Actually very rarely do I actually sit and read the bible for a long amount of time. I'm sure i'm not the only one that has the problem that when you actually have a moment out of our normally hectic day, something always comes up. It's amazing how the devil does anything to keep us away from God's word! I suddenly have to take shower, my homework has to be done that i've been putting off, I need to do laundry or I'll have nothing to wear, I have to go shopping I need that new shirt NOW or it will be gone tomorrow. I'm all of the sudden extremely tired, If you ever want to go to bed early and your not tired try reading the bible. Not only is the bible kinda complex and at some times dull but someone else wants you to fall asleep and not read that message. So fellow Bloggers, I do not read my bible as much as I need to, and I'm going to try to start reading it more regularly. We can do it together and I will try to keep you all posted =)

  1. First of all, I LOVE your new background!!

    Secondly, you probably already know this but you can change your font colors by going into the layout & in the upper left hand corner go to "fonts and colors" where you will be able to do all kinds of new colors.

    Most importantly, I'm glad you are feeling convicted about reading your Bible. It's God very words spoken to us and yes, it can be dull but truthfully, there is so much to gain (and a lot of exciting parts!!) that the boring parts are easy to get through. If you get into the habit of reading at least a little every day...God will speak to you in big ways!!! And when you just don't feel like it...do it anyway!! :)

    Ok, I've been bossy enough!
    Love you!
