I started "Living Beyond Yourself" by Beth Moore today FOR THE 3RD TIME
(edited to add: I have not yet completed the study...the key here is that I have STARTED it 3 times now). God has already spoken to me on DAY ONE through this study in a new and fresh way (FOR THE 3RD TIME). In a worldly sense, this week is possibly the worst ever, with Gerald's funeral just behind us and the 2nd anniversary of Ruby's death looming before us. Yet somehow it is already one of the most precious of my life. Experiencing God's faithfulness after losing Ruby, I am waiting in almost eager anticipation of what God will do now through yet another trial.
Lest it appear that I "have it together" in any way, shape or form, I'll confess that my baby is screaming in his bed and I am ignoring him to blog. Jack may or may not be eating ham straight out of the refrigerator. I just had to share the conversation (initiated through the homework from the Bible study) I had with God a few minutes ago...
please read the link. I am amazed and thankful that He speaks so clearly, even through this here internet.
Lord,
Alter me from the inside out. Manifest the character of Jesus genuinely in my everyday life.

Melanie,
I AM. Here's what I ask of you:
1. Be honest.
2. Dig deep.
3. Get serious.
4. Try harder.
5.
Fall apart so I can piece you back together.God
He's discovered his monkey toes!
He recognizes the camera and usually gives it this look:
Only 5 minutes before, he had been laying on this blanket, smack dab in the middle of it, and managed to propel his big self this far backwards with his sticky, monkey toes!
