1. When were you last a guest at an event or in someone's home? Tell us about it. Do you enjoy having guests in your own home?
In someone's home? I honestly can't remember but it had to be before March 2020. I did go to an outdoor BBQ retirement party in August that was at someone's home but don't know if that counts. I do enjoy having guests in my home and again haven't done that since Covid started.
2. What has you 'tied up in knots' currently or recently? Are you any good at tying actual knots?
The state of our country and our world can have me tied up in knots if I let it. I remind myself that God is in control and He knows the future. I can trust Him and rest in His promises. No, I am not good at tying knots.
3. What's something you've been wanting to do and have decided 2021 will be the year you 'take the plunge'?
To get to my goal weight and stay there. I took the plunge in August 2020 but hope to be at goal by July 2021.
4. Something in your home that's old? Something new? Something borrowed? Something blue?
My dining room table is old. It was my mother-in-law's and she had it for over 50 years. Something new- Christmas lights in my living room and yes I still have them up! Something borrowed-the only thing I can think of is some clothes that I borrowed from my sister. Something blue- my main bathroom has soft blue walls.
5. Share a favorite quote, a verse of scripture, and/or a bit of wisdom for couples getting married in this challenging and seemingly unpredictable season we're currently/still experiencing.
"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Matthew 6:33
My husband and I chose that verse when we were married and I remind myself of it often.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
"Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:27
We have a beach getaway in April, a friend's son is getting married, and we are planning to attend. I agree there is nothing quite like the ocean to help us refocus. I remember I'm small and God is so big. Good luck with your goal.
ReplyDeleteI like the verse you and your husband chose for your wedding day.
ReplyDeleteI also appreciated your random.
:-)
I agree with you about the waves. I just moved from the coast of Mass. to Texas. I miss the ocean. Enjoy your week, Theresa.
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of the ocean too. Just listening and seeing it always reminds me of God as well as the sky day or night.
