Yes, school is here, ladies! Whether we like it or not, it has arrived. Some of
you I'm sure are still in school, while others of you may have children
starting school. Whatever the case, summer is over and it's time to get back to
work.
This is me. I didn't actually take this on the first day of
school; I forgot, hehehe. Fortunately, my second-day outfit worked just as
well. Since my lovely friend CJ cut my hair short last March (and my mother has
so kindly continued to trim it for me) I've been wearing headbands and scarves
a LOT. They're so much fun! I like this scarf; it's colourful and unusual, and
it draws just a little bit of attention. Do you wear scarves? Do you have a
different favourite type of accessory? Tell me about it!
With school comes a big personal challenge for me: how to
walk openly with God when public school and the people around me are often
pushing the opposite. It always has been and always will be a challenge, and as
the year progresses I'll probably look into that a little more. Right now, I
would appreciate your prayers for myself and all of the students and teachers
who are trying to shine a light in a public school system desperately trying to
extinguish it. Pray that God will give us the strength to battle temptation and
the courage to stand up for the Truth and tell people why we refuse to
compromise.
“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks
you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness
and respect.” -1 Peter 3:15
Have a great week, guys! I'll keep praying for all of you as
well!

Hi, honey!
ReplyDeleteI promised to catch up with you at your blog spot as soon as my kiddos were back at school! It's great to see you growing in the Lord here! Keep shining and growing in beauty and God's wisdom! I'm so proud of you and the leap of faith you are taking in blogging for the glory of the Lord. Your courage and conviction in Christ is remarkable and truly Spirit driven!
Love in Christ,
Christy Ingold
Thanks! :) I went back and forth for a long time before posting the pictures of myself. It was the influence of a friend who told me the first picture was utterly ridiculous that finally convinced me to do it; he bet me that I would never actually post something like that online. :)
