30 Day Praise Challenge- Day 1

In the midst of worldwide chaos and fear over the Covid-19 virus I slumped down on my couch and glanced over at my bookshelf and noticed a book that popped out at me as if to say “Here I am- I’ve been waiting for such a time as this”.

The 30 Day Praise Challenge- by Becky Harling



In a time of her life facing cancer, crippled with anxiety and fear- she was challenged by her mentor to spend 20 min a day in PRAISE for 30 days. And it changed her life.

Each day is set up in this format:


She gives you guided praise SONG lists to listen to each day which she encourages you to put into playlists for your car/home listening.

Today I start the challenge:
I have decided to start the next 30  days with Praise instead of Facebook
I won’t copy the book in here (I’ll let you get your own version)
But I will try to post some scripture, thoughts and songs to share with you!

DAY ONE: God Gives Me Wisdom
My 1 take- away:
Any time I face anything -TODAY: Praise God that He can show me what to do! He can help me find my way through with His wisdom.

Read: Psalm 111:10
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
All who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.”
And James 1:5
“If any of you lacks wisdom he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”

Burstin' With Broadway!

Image
I've joined an awesome choir called Burstin' with Broadway. It is so much fun cause it's open to anyone that wants to be a part of a choir for fun, and all the songs that we sing are Broadway type musicals. We only meet once a week, and throughout the week we have a CD to practice with (many of the choir members actually can't read music) But it's so amazing to see how excited everyone is to be a part of this choir and how surprised they are at themselves for what they have accomplished. Somedays it's surprises me to. In the photo you will see some of the compilations we are singing this season. We will soon be singing our pieces in some elite places like the local old folks home...and our final concert will be June 10/06, at a United church in North Vancouver. Click here for the website!

The Art of Making Mistakes

Image
  I don't know if you have ever struggled with your "bits n pieces" of art being good enough for general public viewing.  I love to draw doodley art/tangles/words... mindlessly on bits of paper especially while watching TV or listening to music.  I would never classify it as "fine" art.  I do it to relax - and because I'm  trying to slow down, I'll often make errors in the process from impatience or distraction. They are far from perfect. Not poetically beautiful. Not necessarily powerful or inspirational.  And are littered with mistakes. A few weeks ago, I saw my talented son draw a beautiful picture and half way through, throw it in the bin.  I asked him why he would throw away such a beautiful piece of work and he grunted "too many mistakes" and then "Its not how I imagined it to look." Oh boy - did I relate!   We want to hide our mistakes or start over... forget that we were so stupid to make such a big blunder in the first place.
