Caffeinated Randomness: Fall coffee...2 ways...

Photo Source
So as not to disappoint those of you dearies who love the random coffee pictures...here's a Fall coffee pic...lovely.  Makes you think of a calm moment outside amid the crunchy leaves...sipping some hot Java while your delightful angelic children romp in the glorious hues of autumn.  *sigh*


Yeah, well....my Fall coffee today actually looks like this....
...my favorite red chofa (chair/sofa), Psalm 46:10 mug of coffee...my Bible reading (gotta say I'm not really loving Lamentations), mending (little holes in little things)...and the current bio enroute reading (spoken from the heart)....

So, how do you do your Fall coffee!?  If it's like the ideal above...tell me gently!  I think I'm going to buy a second little rake...so they can share in the joy of raking this weekend.  Hehehe!

Coffee kisses to ya'll today!!

MORE Thoughts on Light in Darkness....

I had some more thoughts on being a light in darkness....just so you are following the analogy here...light is equal to salvation and darkness is equal to sin.

While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.  John 12:36

Sinners enjoy darkness because they think they can hide their sin.  They don't tend to enjoy spending time with those in the light either...because they will reveal or expose that sin they're trying to hide. 

God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.  1 Jn 1:5-7

When you are playing in the darkness....it effects your mood (fear, sadness, etc.) and your eyes grow accustomed to it so that you don't clearly view it as sinful...well, until the comparison of true LIGHT is shared!

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth)  Eph. 5:8-9

When we attempt to live in the darkness...we stumble and hurt ourselves.  Things aren't where we expect them to be, we trip and fall into even darker darkness.

Give glory to the LORD your God before it is too late. Acknowledge him before he brings darkness upon you, causing you to stumble and fall on the darkening mountains. For then, when you look for light, you will find only terrible darkness and gloom.  Jer. 13:16

Word FILLED Wednesday: My Joyfilled Light!

For those of you who "know" me...this will come as no surprise.  But, I've had two songs running through my head for DAYS...and thought I'd share the fun.  The first is pretty familiar...This little light of mine.  I'm gonna let it shine.  This little light of mine. I'm gonna let it shine.  Let it shine....let it shine...let it shine!

The other...I can't find a recording of...and I think it was in our church hymnal growing up.  I'm notorious for remembering parts of songs and not being able to figure out the title...and then calling up my parents and singing bits and pieces so they can help me out.  Ask them...really!  Between that and cooking questions they wonder if I call for any other reasons.  Anyhew...it goes like this...It is joy unspeakable and full of glory, fully of glory, full of glory.  It is joy unspeakable and full of glory...oh the half has never yet been told!

And how does that connect to your WFW post, dear, flighty Bobbi you are asking?  Well, I'll try to tell you!

I was asked this week...Do people around see the light of Jesus in you?  How do you appropriate His power and peace? 

So, there are areas where I need to clean up my dusty lantern.  I really thought about it this week...in our crazy economy, dark world, tumultuous politics...I want to stand firm in the knowledge that He is the (Isaiah 9) Prince of Peace, Everlasting Father....

Wonderful Counselor....and there's where I got the "joy unspeakable" song stuck in my head.  He was able to work miracles and do marvelous and astounding things.  Judges 13...the angel who visits Samson's parents says his name is "Wonderful"...beyond understanding, full of glory, joy unspeakable.  Giving supernatural counsel.  WOW!

So, often I forget the source of my LIGHT is GOD!  I need to go to the WORD...before I seek out the opinion of friends, family, or books.  I need to spend more time in prayer...to be connected with Him...and receiving His Wonderful Counsel...

So, is your little light shining?  Does it need some dusting off??

Do people see your JOY?  Does it point to HIS glory??

"Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible (unspeakable) and filled with glory," 1 Peter 1:8

Memory Monday: Bringing It Back!

I used to faithfully participate in Memory Monday...on a blog that rarely hosts it anymore...and I stopped memorizing as much scripture when I stopped blogging about it.  I realized that the only scripture I was memorizing were the little verses my SS and children were memorizing.  I'm not knocking that...something is better than nothing. But then...

I recently saw this youtube (below) by John Piper...and it convicted and inspired me to bring Memory Monday back to my blog.  Well, that's not quite true...it reminded me of the importance...the VITAL importance of scripture memorization...and I figured if blogging about it would keep me accountable...then I'd do that too!



If anyone wants to join me...I'd love to hear what you are "hiding in your heart."  I'm beginning with Isaiah 55.  I want to memorize the entire chapter.  A few verses at a time...We'll see how many I have for next week.  I'll attempt to Vlog...something I have never done before.  That way there is no hiding...either it's in my brain/heart...or it's not!

Caffeinated Randomness: Dopey Chickens, Delegations and Downshifting!

Photo Source
Well, today...I'm going to enforce a SLOW DOWN on myself.  I've been running around like a crazy chicken all week.  Not exactly with my head off...but clucking and squawking a lot.  HA!  So, a calming cup of chai or cinnamon coffee....*sigh...

Yeah, I'm helping a friend with the Fall Festival at our church this weekend.  The look on her face was truly funny the other day when I told her to delegate some of the stressful stuffs.  She did...but the point was well taken...it's not exactly something that I do very well when I'm in charge either.

I'm a total dork for a friend though...I put my arm around her and said, "Do you trust me?  and I started singin', "You've gotta friend in me..."  I've been busy with some of that this week...but I'd rather have her somewhat sane the day of the event...so it's well worth it to me!

My Sweet Boobahs finished off their antibiotics this week...and are feeling much better.  Right back to their ornery, rotten selves.  Trust me.  I'm glad they are feeling better but PHEW...wowsers...MomE's tired!!  And, sadly...MomE hasn't been exactly her most patient this week either.  I mentioned the clucking and er, squawking

Oh, and Loverbrains and I decided we'd commit to an exercise plan and start THIS WEEK.  He read an article on the chemistry of weight loss...or something weird like that.  It was something in his AIChe magazine, I think.  It sounded like Greek to me.  I enjoyed teasing him about it.  So, we are running M, W, F and doing weights/pilates the other days...except Sunday's which are rest.  Woohoo, bring on the naptime!

I felt ridiculously sore the first few days...but today I ran the whole mile and I feel fine...well, other than my lungs burning cuz it's 34 outside.  Yes, you CAN run in the fall/winter.  Why are we?  Well, duh...it's CHEAP!  No treadmill or gym necessary.  It's one of those perks of living in a very nice neighborhood.  I only wish we could run together.  Where IS my nanny?  LOL!!

So, as I eluded to in the beginning of this randomly caffeinated post...I'm not planning to get much done today.  I'm taking the kids on a leaf walk...and then I'm going to paraffin wax dip leaves with the kids.  Then, we'll probably do some leaf rubbings.  Who knows what else.  NO, I'm not raking yet.  I'll wait til the trees are a bit emptier, thanks!

What else shall I do on this SLOWED down day?  Finish a book?  Oh, I got bunches of slowcooker books out of the library yesterday too.  Sounds enticing to me!

Hope your Friday is slow and lovely!  Hugs!

Word FILLED Wednesday: Keep Calm...

I have really loved the whole KEEP CALM sign craze.  There's "Keep Calm and Drink Coffee"  and "Keep Calm and Just Pray"  and "Keep Calm and Carry On" but as always...God really says it best! 

As I was studying this week...I knew I just had to try making this verse fit into that kind of graphic.  Pretty neat!  Now, if I just knew how to make it into a t-shirt or mug...I'd be in business!  HA!

In case you are wondering about context here...these are words from God, through Isaiah...to bad King Ahaz.  God was reminding AGAIN...that He is a God who keeps His promises.  Judah's enemies were saying they were going to destroy them for their refusal to ally against Assyria.  They threatened to kill Ahaz and put a "puppet king" on the throne.  NOW, if Ahaz had feared God and trusted in HIM...he would have KNOWN that God made a promise that David's line would NEVER, EVER go out!  "Does not the Scripture say that the Christ will come from David's family and from Bethlehem, the town where David lived?" John 7:42  But, Ahaz...he was wicked...and made a secret alliance with Assyria. 

End result...they had to be punished for their "trying of God's patience"(Is.7:13)....God sent a sign IMMANUEL...to remind them (God with us) as they went through destruction and captivity...that HE was God and HE was to feared...and that HE would always keep promises. 

JESUS is the fulfillment of that promise.  Praise God, we were grafted into that salvation!  I'm so glad my God is a the ONLY ALMIGHTY GOD ...and He keeps His promises!

Sidenote:  This super challenges me to be a consistent parent.  Very often, even after I have warned my children, they choose to deliberately defy me.  I must discipline them...and teach them to obey.  I must keep my promises...in punishment, in reward.  I must be faithful!

Tube Tuesday: Rain Game...Africa!

My brother sent this to me...  I've played the "rain game" in youth groups over the years...but it's pretty fun with the rains of Africa theme.  HA!

Rules of Contentment...

 
*  Allow ourselves to complain of nothing, not even the weather.  
-Do everything without complaining or arguing,  Phil. 2:14
-And do not grumble, as some of them did--and were killed by the destroying angel.  I Cor. 10:10

*  Never picture ourselves in any circumstances in which we are not.  
-I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.  Phil. 4:11-13

*  Never compare our lot with that of another.
-We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise.  II Cor. 10:12
-Better is one day in your courts  than a thousand elsewhere;  I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.  For the Lord God is a sun and shield;  the Lord bestows favor and honor;  no good thing does he withhold  from those whose walk is blameless.  Ps. 84:10-11

*Never allow ourselves to wish that this or that had been otherwise.
-And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.  Rom. 8:28

*Never dwell on the morrow; remember that is God's and not ours.
-“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?  “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.  Matt. 6:25-34

-Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  Phil. 4:6-7

Caffeinated Randomness: Energy, Errands, and Eeek!

Ever feel like you get to the end of the week...and you start to say, "Phew, finally this long week is over..." AND then you realize..."Oooo...this weekend is going to be a doozy!"  Yeah...well, perk up the coffee pot.  I'm ready!

Oh, to quickly answer Michelle's "favorite obscure bible story" question.  Um, I love when a villain "gets what's coming to them!"  Yeah, I cheer LOUDLY when watching movies, etc.  HA!  So, I like 2 Kings 9...where Jezebel gets thrown down by the eunuchs.  I can just hear her evil "EEEKKK"...thud!  She'd had it coming for a long time...proven by the fulfilled prophecy of Elijah, "On the plot of ground at Jezreel dogs will devour Jezebel’s flesh.  Jezebel’s body will be like refuse on the ground in the plot at Jezreel, so that no one will be able to say, ‘This is Jezebel.'" Yeah, I don't think people realize how very VIVID the Bible truly is!

Tonight is date night...and I'm secretly working on a date night game.  We LOVE going to bookstores...and I saw this idea "You Wanna Be My Bookworm?"  Actually, I've gotten a lot of good ideas from The Dating Divas.  Most take a little bit of planning...but it's worth it. 

Tomorrow I'm starting a date swap scenerio with some good friends.  We will swap every other month with them...for FREE.  After doing this once before...I'm wiser this time around.  Just us Mom's are switching houses.  I'm going to her's and being the babysitter (and vice versa.)  That's much MUCH easier than having them come to your house, figuring out bedtimes, etc etc.  And honestly, for me...one of the greatest perks to babysitting is having the kids in bed, ASLEEP, when I get home.  Nothing says, "Adios Romance" like putting kids to bed.  Ugh!  I can do that EVERY night...without a babysitter.  Because we still wish to go out every month we plan to pay for a babysitter on the off months.  BUT...do the math...that cuts the babysitting budget in half!  *Yeah*

Well, today is happy errand day...where I sum up every ounce of remaining energy and do errands with the kids.  The really fun ones (NOT)...bank, ups store, etc.  We'll end up at the library...and I have a book on hold (oh, the free thrills of a library card holder)!  Phew....I need another cup of coffee...and a good hot shower!

Ready, get set, GO!!!  Love (and caffeinated energy) to ya'll this weekend!

WFW: Satisfied?



I've spent a lot of time this week focused on how unlike Isaiah I am.  I am a "detail oriented" kind of chica.  I want to obey God...but I want all the details FIRST.  I'd like to weigh out how much suffering will be involved, how much joy, how long, etc.  BEFORE I say, "Here Am I, Send Me!"  
 
I was struck this week, as I studied Isaiah 6, that after Isaiah recognized his sin and repented, he was purified...and then he immediately volunteered.  After he heard the difficult ministry he was called to...he asked for how long.  And even after the Lord told him basically "til the bitter end"...he STILL moved forward in obedience.  
 
I was thinking that Isaiah really had an intense respect for God.  He started out with a right view of his sin...which gave him intense appreciation for his atonement.  He had a BIG encounter with God...and it gave him a burning heart.  When God gets a hold of your heart it can only result in obedient service.  He trusted God...and knew all about him.  
So, now you're wondering how that all ties into my nifty graphic, right?  Well, today...in addition to remembering all these things I needed to remember that I can and should be fully satisfied in God.  He provides for my every need!  Wherever He leads...He will supply!  In my Bible the little heading says, The Lord Delivers Men From Manifold Troubles...ain't it the truth!?  If you have a few minutes...go ahead and read all of Psalm 107.  Time in God's Word is well spent!

Love is not selfish...

We made a trip to meet up with some of Loverbrain's college buddies.  It's sort of become an annual event.  The location is prime...and we always have a good time...but it's a LONG drive.  We always talk about spending the night...but are blessed to be so involved in our church that it never works out.  So, it's a long day...and there is part of me that dreads it...AND it almost always falls on my birthday weekend.  10-10-10 this year.  Woohoo!

But love is not selfish.  And, I'm so glad.  It is rewarding to love my husband the right way.  It was wonderful to see him so happy...talking with his good friends.  He's a busy man and really doesn't have these "bosom" friends at home.  As much as I attempt to understand about his work...I will never get it in the "original language" of a chemical engineer.  No matter how hard I try. 

Yes, there was some stress involved in the packing and planning and traveling...but it was worth it.  What's something you could do to love your husband in a totally unselfish way today?

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. 1 Cor. 13:4-8 ESV

Caffeinated Randomness: Decaf Peace Offering!

Photo Source
I really enjoy my morning cup of coffee...and the occasional afternoon iced coffee...but I'm not against you poor decaf-ers out there.  *sigh*...even my Dad is going decaf!  Actually, I found his recent post on this topic rather convicting...especially in light of  (1 Corinthians 6:12) ¶ All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 

Some of you have commented regarding joking fears of me "banning you from my blog" for being a decaf-er...and I would NEVER do that!  That's so funny...I LOVE comments...the very though of banning someone is hilarious.  Okay, I take that back...if you're mean to me...you are totally banned!  

Anyhew, I decided to offer a "peace offering" in the form of a DECAF Chai Tea Mix Recipe that my Mom came up with that is D-licious!  Yes, you can change things up and make this caffeinated, or sugar free for that matter.  I tend to keep my recipe free of BOTH sugar and caffeine...because, oddly, I crave this in the chilly Fall evenings, and I enjoy SLEEP too!  

Enjoy, enjoy...this is better than Starbucks version..really!!  Oh, and much CHEAPER!!
Instant Chai Tea Latte Mix (DECAF)
1 c. dry milk
1 c. dry creamer
1 c. dry French vanilla creamer (sugar free)
2.5 c. sugar (or Splenda)
1.5 c. PLAIN instant tea (DECAF)
2 t. ginger
2 t. cinnamon
.5 t. cloves
1 t. cardamom
1 t. nutmeg
1 t. allspice

Blend in food processor into fine powder. (Do not skip this step...it makes a BIG difference) 
Use 3 heaping spoons per mug of boiling water.


I'll warn you that cardamom is pricey...but will make a HUGE difference in taste!  You only use a teeny bit at a time too!  Being the bookworm that I am, I've loved any drink cardamom since I read Laurie King's Mary Russell series.  She drinks something with cardamom in it while in Egypt.  I relate with certain characters...sigh. Yeah, yeah...I'm not in Egypt but...

Can you tell that it is chilly and Fall like around here?  I get into the warm drinks and book reading mode!  Smiles and love to all this weekend!!

My Memory Memory Hook!

Last winter I told everyone about my love for prayer and scripture hooks. You know, those things you hang prayer or scripture on....a memory tool. When I fold my husband's socks...I pray for him. Prayer hook. When I see Dawn dish detergent...I think, Lam. 3:23, "Your mercies are new every morning (dawn). Great is Your Faithfulness." But it recently occurred to me...as I watched steam pour off my cup...that I have memory hooks too.

I have a wonderful memory...that often comes to mind when I see a steamy cup...
When my Dad came to see me after the birth of my firstborn...well, I don't remember much.  I was in pain, exhausted and on pain killers that meant I couldn't drive and probably shouldn't be left alone!  I remember that our little house was packed with people...in a great, celebration kind of way.  She was beautiful and we were so thankful for her safe arrival.  A first grandbaby on both sides.  That's what happens when two firstborns have a baby!  Ha!

I cherish a few clear memories.  My Dad always trucks off somewhere to be alone with his coffee and Bible in the mornings.  In this case he knew that my Mom (who stayed for 3 wonderful weeks) needed a break so he took the little baby bundle out on the back patio with him too.  I remember just being out of the shower...and either I was bringing him coffee or he'd taken a cup out...I just remember the steam.  It was a real moment for me...to see my Dad with my baby...in all her pinkness. *Memory hook*


My Mom is a teacher through and through.  She can't help it.  She stayed for three weeks...but she made sure I'd be able to take over my household responsibilities, and my new MomE job, before she left.  Each day she'd say, "Okay, today you're going to do THIS, too!"  One thing we did together was hang and fold laundry.  I really miss my clothesline from that house.  When I see hanging clothes...or even when I take down the clothes from my screen porch line...I remember that special new time in my life.  I remember how my Mom showed her love to me and how she carefully aided me onto that next phase of adulthood.  

I've often said I wished I had a picture of those moments.  So, I guess now I do...memory hook! *click*

Word FILLED Wednesday: Spoiled Fruit?

God loves and cares so much for His own.  He provides everything they need to produce good spiritual fruit.  Yet, I'm afraid many Christians are spoiled...bad, spoiled fruit.  We aren't useful for His purposes.

Just like a spoiled child we can be harming our own character through our selfishness.  We seek after this world.  We are self seeking, overindulging, excessively praising things that aren't praise worthy.

It's not about being fruitful in just my family either.  It's about becoming fruitful in the lives of others.  I've been challenged this week...so let me share with you too.  Do you live for your next purchase, your child's next game or event, your kid's good grades, etc.?  Who or What do you live for?

And just like it talks about here in Isaiah 5...if we don't produce good fruit...God will discipline us.  Just as a spoiled child requires discipline.  Being God's own child...I'm no longer worried about His eternal judgement.  The substitution of Jesus Christ, dying on the cross for my sin, makes me His own.  That substitution is the difference between discipline and judgement.

Just like children don't fear the judgment of death from their parents...I don't fear eternal death from my perfect, heavenly Father.  BUT...just like spoiled children require discipline...I too, require discipline from God...to help me grow strong and mature in Him...so I can bring glory to His Name.

How do you respond to God's discipline?  How will you learn from your Heavenly Father...to find grace and help to move forward in your faith?

Marriage Monday: “A Cord of Three Strands is not Quickly Broken”

This thought is based on Ecc. 4:9-12, "Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken."  I like this poem that holds the same idea...
 
I once thought marriage took
Just two to make a go,
But now I am convinced
It takes the Lord also.

And not one marriage fails
Where Christ is asked to enter,
As lovers come together
With Jesus at the center.

But marriage seldom thrives,
And homes are incomplete,
Till He is welcomed there
To help avoid defeat.

In homes where Christ is first,
It's obvious to see,
Those unions really work,
For marriage still takes three.
Author Unknown

This is so true.  Sometimes, it even helps to have people (your pastor, maybe) help you refocus your marriage....to the important strand...the foundation...GOD!  We can only love each other the way we should because God first loved us!

"We love because he first loved us."  1 John 4:19

We can only forgive and weather life's stormy days if we model our lives after Christ. 

"Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you."  Eph. 4:32

So, is your cord made of THREE strands??  If you need to start now to re-make your marriage cord...it's totally worth the effort!!
