New Wiphan T’s & Scripture Reading {Deuteronomy 29, 30, 31}

I’m on a serious “dress for a cause” kick. I bought a really cute t-shirt last summer from the Gap that said “Change the World with what you wear”. It was a purple t—but one of their product red shirts. It really had me thinking… What if we lived in a way to change the […]

I love the idea of dressing for a cause. How about instead of perpetuating worldwide poverty by lining the pockets of sweatshop-using companies, we do the opposite and buy clothing that helps eradicate poverty? This was inspirational, I think I will try to get some more clothing where I know my money is truly helping people.

Can’t wait to build my wardrobe with a WIPHAN shirt. ๐Ÿ™‚ I try to wear all my adoption shirts, Africa shirts, water shirts, etc. etc. etc. everyday! ๐Ÿ™‚ When my life keeps me so busy that I can’t stop and tell everyone with my mouth the need for service of our brothers and sisters in Christ, my shirt can! โ™ฅ

P.S. Congratulations Kristi!!! That was a total no-brainer! LOL ๐Ÿ™‚ She’s the advocacy queen!

Today’s Reading: Deuteronomy 26-29:1

Confession. Some times I don’t see it right. Deuteronomy is right on. And some times I just don’t interpret what the Lord says as the Lord says it. Maybe it’s not even interpretting it wrong…but my sinful flesh wants to hear it differently. Confession. Some times I fall into the sin of thinking my serving […]

You’ve just written a post that’s been stirring around in my head all week; however, you said it much more eloquently than I could have. You are such a gifted writer. Love your blog and your heart!

Renea - March 20, 2010 - 12:43 am

You know I love your โ™ฅ and this post actually mimics what I have been battling with all day long….. it’s been a crazy CRAZY day and as much as I want to think I am ‘doing the extra’ I fail miserably at doing enough. It’s like scratching the surface of what my God expects. Demands. Oh how I want to overflow!

Catchin up…

I’m catching up on reading today and will post both yesterday and today’s later this afternoon. I’m going to TRY to start posting the day before’s reading at night again too. We’ve been doing some serious Spring cleaning at the Young house…much needed—and we’ve also decided to put the posts with our kiddos pictures only […]

When things don’t make sense… {Scripture Reading Deuteronomy 16:18 – 21}

Today’s scripture reading is Deuteronomy chapters 16, 17, 18, 19 & 21. These are what you call historical chapters—so while there are still very applicable points that can be made…for the most part it’s historical and cultural writing and instruction. AND…to be honest–it just didn’t speak to my heart today. Ever have one of those […]
