Esther - Beth Moore

I have done several Bible studies and book studies in my life.  But I have never done one that I needed to be completely dedicated to.  I have to admit that I am good at starting things but terrible at following through and completing things.

This summer I joined an online (private fb group) Bible study.  We are doing Beth Moore's Esther.  I have never done a Beth Moore study but I did hear her speak once at Women of Faith many years ago.

We started the study on Monday and I have to say that I have already learned more in these two days than I have learned in some studies I have taken months to do.

I really enjoy that it is a small lesson every day.  But it digs deep.  I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to Biblical history but she actually makes it easy to follow.  She always refers back to other books to back up her history and view points.

There have been a few words that I had to look up (sanguine - being one of them). But I am doing this to learn so if I am expanding my vocabulary as well, then that is another plus.

One of the questions yesterday was: What are you hoping for as you begin this Bible study?

Me?  I'm hoping for a better understanding of the scriptures.  I want to fall in love with God's word.  I want to 'want' to read and study His word every day.

If you are interested in learning more about this study or joining us, please leave me a comment or drop me and email.

Gone tomorrow

My hair finally reached enough length that I was able to cut it and donate it again.

10" braided and cut and ready to go.  I will be sending it to Pantene Beautiful lengths.

I am getting a little old to do it again.  They will only take up to 5% grey hair and I prob have that amount now.  But at least now I can color it and do different things than I could before.  

Cutting so much at once is freeing but odd at the same time.  I loved having long hair but it got to the point that I couldn't do much with it except a ponytail or bun.  It is still shoulder length so now I can do many different things with it if I wanted to.

Blessings,

Hello Again

It has been a terribly long time since I have written here.

I'm not even sure that anyone is still around.

There have been so many changes in my life that I could probably fill a months work of pages just catching up.

I would really like to get back to blogging and journaling.  I have missed it.  It used to be my safe haven where I could share my thoughts and every day mundane things and get a little feedback, but mostly, I would get relief from things that might be building up.

Hopefully in the next few weeks I can share the changes in my life - good and bad.  And get back to where I can share again.

Blessing,
-Stacy
