VERY VERY mad

After walking away from the DMV a second time, I was very, very upset. They didn't have on record from Central Illinois Driving School that I had finished drivers ed. That was 9 MONTHS AGO. Come on, now! I am going to have to wait even longer. Might not be able to get my drivers license until next week.

Quite disappointed

I was quite disappointed upon walking away from the DMV today. As always, in those type of situations, there is always some other form you need. Sadly I didn't get my license today, but there is always a tomorrow.

Philippians 2:13

  My favorite verse, right now, is Philippians 2:13. It says, for it is God who  works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. It is God who gives you the desire and the power to do the right thing.    

Celebrating my great accomplishment

Gram and I drove to Pinckneyville tonight and I completed all my driving hours. I am so happy! Now I am nervous about taking my driving test. Planning on taking it this Tuesday.

I beat my body and make it my slave

I am believing that God is going to be in more control when I fast. I know victory comes when I lay down my desires and needs so Jesus can be in charge. That is all I want! Be in charge, Jesus!

Next time

I love going outside and just soaking up the beauty that is all around. The trees rainbow of colors and the skies limitless beauty. I was so inspired that I tried to paint the sky today. It didn't really work because I never found sturdy paper to paint on. I did, however, get to sketch a still life that I was fairly pleased with. I love being inspired. I just hope next time my inspirations will come out on paper.

I am ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas

 I can't wait until Thanksgiving and Christmas. I am already listening to Christmas music and I'm planning my after Thanksgiving day shopping trip. It's going to be great! By the way, I have a lot of Christmas presents already.

Each moment counts

Always cherish every moment with the ones you love. You never know when it will be your last. Never forget the memories you have with them, but don't let them come back to haunt you.

Love my dad

So, sometimes my dad gets into this mood where he loves giving money away. Hey, it's to my advantage! I received $7.11 this morning just from rolling a ball.

In His presence there is fullness of joy

I find so much peace when I am in the presence of the Lord. It is water for my soul. Whenever I miss my quite time with Him in the morning, I feel empty and zapped of all my energy. Being in Jesus presence is vital. I love Him!!!!!

My cute little brother

Around the Cherry house, there is always something funny going on. Three year old Josiah came walking into the kitchen and said, "Bekah, we need some discipline around here!" I just laughed and told him how cute he was.

By His stripes, I was healed

I have decided to be completely healthy this year. So when I woke up to a headache, sore throat, and body aches, my faith was slightly weakened. But I know what the Word of God says. It says by His stripes I was healed. I am choosing to believe Jesus over my body.
