the Story of My World: Proverbs

Proverbs

We are reading one chapter in Proverbs a day at breakfast. The kids each have a notebook and we are copying what fools do into that notebook. I think I am going to also have them write ONE sentence that really strikes them in each chapter.

I know Brenda wrote on the girls meeting THE SLUGGARD... my kids will meet the sluggard soon but for now we are focusing on fools!

Twice since we started we have been able to bring to mind SOMETHING from the passage in our daily life. So that is already some awesome fruit from reading God's word!

Brenda said...: I love it! We read a chapter at breakfast the other day too and then sickness hit our house and we got all off. We will begin again though! and we're going to meet the fool next too. :); July 28, 2011 at 5:14 PM

Quotes...

“I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past.” ---Virginia Woolf

“A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.” ---Eudora Welty

Memory... is the diary that we all carry about with us. ---Oscar Wilde

Winter must be cold for those with no warm memories. ---Terry Mckay (Deborah Kerr - An Affair to Remember)

The great thing, if one can, is to stop regarding all the unpleasant things as interruptions of one's "own," or "real" life. The truth is of course that what one calls the interruptions are precisely one's real life -- the life God is sending one day by day. ~C.S Lewis
