Be Back Soon!

My Dear Readers,

I am writing to inform you that I am taking a three month sabbatical from the Internet (you can be praying for me). That means no posts or emails for three months from Yours Truly. Those of you who still want to contact me can do so via snail mail. If you don't have my address, just email my MOM and request it. Thanks y'all, and be sure to check back in three months January 25, 2008.

Hey Goose, Could I tell her what your name is???? :)

That all depends on who you are and if you know my name other then that I guess it would be ok. T.C.C -Goose-

Miss Amy said...

Young men and women,

Please remember you are all representing the Lord Jesus Christ. You should all conduct yourselves as those under the authority of Christian parents. I encourage you to always ask yourselves, "Would my parents be pleased with what I am writing?" Also, please consider you will also be future husbands and wives.

The Internet is not just a place to make friends, it is a place to sharpen iron.

Get to it.

Grace and peace,

Pastor McDonald

Thank you Pastor MacDonald. I will work on sharpening iron.

How about us all coming up with ways to sharpen each other. I will start by encouraging y'all with Tit 2:7. I hope y'all will join in.:) T.C.C -Goose-

Hi Goose,

Thanks for the display of your godly character!

I have one for y'all as well - 1 Thessalonians 3:12-13

Hi again Goose,

I just learned who you are! We have been praying for your father. We rejoice in God's faithfulness to your family.

Grace and peace,

Hi Pastor MacDonald,
Who told you who I am? Thank you for praying. Did you hear that my dad is at home now. We have to have someone sit on him to keep him down.:) 1 Co 13:12.

Hi everyone,
Lets all write bible verses and how it applys to everyday life. Tit 2:7-8 I like this passage because for me it gives a list of what I'm suppose to be. Then there is verse 8 "sound speech that cannot be condemed that one who is opponant may be ashamed having nothing evil to say of you". I have taken it as being, doing, and saying nothing evil so that if anybody wants to say something bad they cann't think of anything to say against you. T.C.C -Goose-

Dear Pastor McDonald,
I do hope I have not done anything that was ungodly in any way. If I have, I beg everyones pardon, and am truly sorry!
I would never intentionally write something I think my parents wouldn't want me too. :-)

Goose- I think that is a good idea! :-)

Ephesians 2:10 - "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
This verse stood out to me the other day because it made me think that God already prepared what He wants me to do! (Sorry, I'm not really that good at writing out my thoughts...).

Have a great day everyone!
In Christ,
Amy

Thanks. But I didn't come up with the idea Paster MacDonald did. James 1:19 this is a passage that goes way back when. My father would always say you have one mouth and two ears that means you sould talk less and listen more. Recently I was named one of my friend's loudest friend. Since then I have been working on being more quiet and less of voicing my opinion. I must tell you it is hard to do. But, with God's help I will tame my wild horse. Talk to y'all later.

(Sorry, I keep deleting comments! I keep wanting to edit something! ;-)).

Ok, thanks.

Thanks for what you said there Goose, I need to learn not to voice my opinion as much, it is hard!

Ephesians 5:15-16 - "Be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil."

There isn't much I can add to this verse... I want to remember to make the most of every opportunity, and live as a wise person.

In Christ,
Amy

Wooo wee! 41 comments! Just now I'm thinking maybe I'll take a 5 month sabbatical from the internet!

Merry CHRISTmas!

Yay! Only a few more days until Jessica returns to cyber-space! :->

A verse that I always have loved is: Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. ~ 1 Timothy 4:12
I've always looked WAY older than I am, but when some people found out how young I was, there behavior totally changed. It used to really discourage me, until God led me to this verse!

I hope that Jessica will be pleased at the use to which her blog has been put!

By His Grace,
Cassie

So we've two days left until Jessica once again enters into the realm of the ubiquitous internet...how shall she do it?

...with much fanfare and cheering?

...quietly with a mischievous demeanor?

...or just with a message of, "I'm back!"?

Only time will tell...

;)

Anonymous said...

I think we should give her a warm welcome. Any ideas?
