Don't be Hasty

Today I am going to write about Proverbs 29:20 which says, "Do you see a man hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him." To me that says not to be hasty in anything that you do because when you are you are considered more like a fool than a fool actually is. I know that I am hasty sometimes and when I am it gets me in trouble because I ended up making the wrong choice in the long run. Lets try not to be to hasty, I know it can be hard but lets work on it today. I hope that you have a great day and that this encourages you!!!!

Family Fun Night Trivia

Something fun that we do for family fun night every Friday night before we play a game. This is something that when my family goes over to the Tsantles house we do Bible Trivia, which is, we all study one book of the Bible or a part of a book and then Uncle Jim and Papa take turns every week. We've already done Philippians, James, and now Joshua. It is really fun, so this week we are doing Joshua 1-5 which will be good. It really is fun to because when one team doesn't know how to do it then the other team is trying to whisper and figure it all out. This is just a way to learn more about the Bible and get a better understanding by answering questions. I hope that maybe you could convince your family to do the same.

Don't get in Other People's Quarrels

Today I am going to write about Proverbs 26:17, which says, "He who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own Is like one who takes a dog by the ears." So, that verse to me means that we need not to meddle into other people's quarrels and just let them figure it out but when we do get into their business it is like pulling a dog by the ears. Just remember that, you're not the only one that needs to remember that because I need to remember it also. It is one of those things that just happen in the moment. It is difficult sometimes just to walk past somebody who is talking and just ignore that conversation. I know that it is for me and I have been working on it lately. I have been working on not always interrupting people and just waiting until they are done talking to say something. Well, I hope that this encourages you and that you have a wonderful day.

Update on Papa

Hello Everyone,

I am updating you on Papa. He is doing great, he still has therapy three times a week and can bend his knee to a 91 degree angle. The therapist would like him to be at a 100 degree angle but he is working his way up there. He is now on crutches rather than a walker. He can put as much weight on his leg as he feels comfortable with. He is doing a really good job recovering from this, he is getting up and moving around and can do a lot more on his own than he could a couple months ago. I still just want to thank everybody for their prayers for our family and everything that you'll have done for us. I hope that you have a wonderful day!!!

In Christ,

Proverbs 20:11

Today I am going to talk about a verse that I have memorized that is a wonderful verse to teach the younger children. It is, "Even a child is known by his deeds, Whether what he does is pure and right." (Proverbs 20:11) So, this verse is one that I need to keep in mind more, I know what is right but in my heart I don't always do what is right. Let's try to keep this verse in mind, as we go through our day. I think it will be helpful if we keep it in our mind and purpose to do everything to the fullest it can be done by. I hope that this encourages you.

Proverbs 15:1

Today I am going to write about Proverbs 15:1, which says, A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger." So, we can just remember that verse all of the time because it is one that everybody struggles with, I have a little issue where I don't think before I speak and then something that maybe I heard from somebody that isn't true will come out and that is how is spreads. I don't want to spread rumors but that is just how everybody is. I am trying to work on that and think more before I speak. Maybe you could work on that also. I hope that you are having a great day and that this encourages you.

In Christ,

Think Before you Speak

Today I am going to write about a verse in Proverbs 8, which says, "The fear of the Lord is to hate evil, Pride and Arrogance and the evil way And the perverse mouth I hate." That verse is so convicting to me because I am don't always have the fear of the Lord showing outwardly or in my heart. I do hate evil but sometimes the flesh is evil. I have been very evil before to my brother. When we were little I was really bad to him. I also struggle with not always thinking before I think. Let's all try to work on that together and encourage each other on that. I hope you have a great day and I hope that this encourages you in this area.

In Christ,

Update on Papa

Hello Everyone,

Papa went to the Dr. yesterday and he is not using his walker anymore, he is using crutches now and he can put as much weight on his foot as he wants to. He was happy, he still has the knee brace on but it is always unlocked so his leg is always bending which is good. The Dr. said that the knee isn't exactly where he would want it to be but it is not bad. So, it is still good. He will never be able to straighten his leg all of the way. We just have to continue to pray that the nerve would wake up and that he would be able to flex his foot. Keep praying!!! We are really appreciating everybody's prayers. Keep up on the prayers for him. Thank you for all you all have done.

In Christ,
Brittany

Walk for Life Donations

Hello Everybody,

It is about the time of year where we start raising money for the Pregnancy Support Services for the spring fundraiser. I am asking that if the Lord leads you to donate maybe you can. I have a website that you can go to and donate if you would like to you just go to www.psspartners.com and then it will help you from there. Just click on sponsor a walker with a check or credit card. Then, it will show you what to do next. I would just ask that you would pray for the ministry. This is something that I strongly believe in and I pray that maybe you can read into it more and learn more and maybe become a walker next year. Thank you and I hope that you have a great day.

Thank you and have a blessed day!!!

In Christ,
