Good afternoon and happy Lord’s day, everyone.  I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!

I thought I’d try to get this month’s scripture writing plan posted ahead of Thanksgiving. It’s here and ready for us all before the rush of the holidays begin.

I think it’s really important for us to remember the very first Christmas and how Jesus/Yeshua fulfilled every one of the many prophecies foretelling the coming of the Messiah. The promised one of Israel and through them the rest of the world.

What better reason to be thankful this and every Thanksgiving, and every single day!

I’m so thankful that so many of you are enjoying and spiritually benefiting from these monthly scripture writing plans! I love putting them together for you knowing that you find them useful and uplifting!

Use these passages to write out the scriptures and grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Click on the image below to pull up the full-sized PDF file for printing –>

I usually print these out on 28 pound white paper (or 32 pound paper is even better) and just stick them right into my planner or journal. The heavier the paper, the less chance it will tear out of your binder or planner by accident and helps resist bleeding or ghosting from your pens or markers. It helps the page turn easier too.

For planner stickers, etc:  If you choose to print these out on full-size (letter) sticker paper. I use these here. They’re priced great and you can write on them easily. They are good enough quality for my needs.

If you want a top-quality sticker paper look for these or clear vinyl ones here. (Though not all pens or markers will write well on the clear ones). If you don’t want to use sticker paper, you can print them on card stock or regular printer paper and glue them down. Honestly, the sticker paper is the most economical  way for everyday planning stickers, regardless of the type.

Going through a lot of ink printing out planner stickers? Do like I did and enlist in the HP Instant Ink program! I’ve saved so much money on ink since I joined several years ago. They have different plans, but the one I’m in is the plan that lets me print up to 300 pages worth of ink for just over $11 per month. That’s regardless of the amount of ink on the page.

I love printing out pictures on photo paper.  I fit 4 4×6-inch photos on one sheet of photo paper.  Imagine the amount of photos you can print at four pages per one page and the cost is the same for a full page of photo ink as it is for one dot.  It goes by the page, not the amount of ink!  You can choose less pages for a lower rate, but I do a lot of printing between coupons, planner stickers and other things.

The Scripture writing plan for November. Sorry it’s so late, but here ya go 🙂

I’ve been crazy busy getting my yard and garden ready for winter and working out, focusing on my weight loss. (I’ve lost 51 pounds so far this year and I’m 6 pounds shy of hitting my 200 pounds off mark from my highest weight ever).  That takes so much planning as far as food goes, and I’ve been using TikTok as a place for support with others who are on this same journey.

The month got away from me or I would have had this up at least a few days ago. Better late than never, as they say.

I always use Thankfulness as the theme for November, not just because of Thanksgiving, but also because I think we need reminded of it at least annually and how important it is.

Hi everyone!  I hope you’re having a great summer!

Mine has been wrapped around two life-changing things.

Firstly, my son’s adjustment from high school to dayhab has been really hard on him, which has made it really hard on me!  Tons of stress there. But he’s in dayhab now and adjusting much better and that’s keeping mom from a few more gray hairs 🙂

In addition to that, I’m still working really hard and and am really focused on weight loss efforts, as I posted here last month.  I’ve been doing really well! I’ve lost 40 pounds now so far this year.  Thirty-two pounds of that has been since starting on the weight loss injectable, Mounjaro.  What a blessing that’s been!  But I’ll catch you up in a different post soon to come on that 🙂

For this post, our theme for September is, “The Nature of Jesus Christ”.

As we await His soon return, I think it’s a great idea to be reminded of all that He is; or rather Who the Word of God tells us He is. I’m reminded also that the apostle John told us, “If they were all written down one by one, I suppose that the whole world could not hold the books that would be written”. (John 21:25).  We’ll just focus on the ones the Lord brought to my attention while preparing this plan 🙂

Hello everyone!  I hope this finds you all well and enjoying a great summer.

My spring had me super busy outside putting in a new garden and tending to yard work, but I’ve been less active this month due to a few different reasons.

First was a nasty arthritis flare (Before this, I didn’t know that was a thing!) in my left knee that had me in a LOT of pain.  To the degree that my orthopedic doctor (who had just given me gel injections at the end of June) ordered an ultrasound.

The ultrasound didn’t find a cyst or anything concerning more than the arthritis, as the doctor had thought perhaps it was a Baker’s cyst or something.  The ultrasound doctor told me she thought it was just an arthritis flare.  I’d always thought arthritis was just…there, causing pain especially with weather changes, but otherwise just there causing pain, and stiffness 🙂

I don’t know, I find it a little odd that it caused me SUCH a crazy amount of intense pain that came on so suddenly, but it’s just an “arthritis flare”.  But either way, it’s a lot better now, thank the Lord!

Also, my son graduated high school in May (yay!) and has been home all the time stuck in the house with mommy (remember, he has autism…)  and has been growing steadily bored (I suspect…he is nonverbal and doesn’t tell me) as his behavior has been keeping me on my toes and my nerves frazzled (to say the least). He’s normally such a very good boy.  He starts dayhab on August 6th though, so boy am I looking forward to having some time to get things done and grocery shop alone 🙂

I know I’ll worry myself to bits about him starting at a new place; new people; new teacher, aids, and bus driver (and no more driving him to school and back twice a day like all last year, yay!!), and new individuals (non-typical folks like my kiddo…and yes he will always be my “kiddo” :), my “baby” in fact! lol) of all ages, not just his age group.

So anyway…more posting to come for my Ponderings of My Predicaments shortly.

The scripture writing theme for August landed in my lap with a thud.  A HARD thud.  A thud the Lord gave me with a heavy reminder of my attitude.

An unbelieving Facebook friend has been challenging my opinion about the Olympics 2024 opening ceremony.  I (as many of you have as well, no doubt) found it to be appalling and evil.  I had to keep biting my tongue (ok, holding my fingers back …same thing 🙂 )  from really typing what my flesh was sending to my brain about his standing up for such wickedness.

Also, Evan being home all summer and his boredom has led him to watching a lot of YouTube videos.  He enjoys watching videos about his favorite toys, chief  among them being the See ‘n Say.  There’s a channel from a young man (in my anger I caught myself referring to him as “an idiot”, and the Lord gently reminded me that He shed His blood for him too) who enjoys destroying things and videoing himself doing it for his YouTube channel.  He takes a hammer to See ‘n Says, drops them off balconies, you get the picture. His entire channel is about destroying things (mostly toys) and videoing it.

He also spells out words on the Word Whammer-type toys that children shouldn’t see at their tender age!

His speech is just as bad.  I reported him to YouTube the first time (not that it did any good, thanks a lot YouTube) after hearing him saying (and Evan hearing), “A, B, C, D, E, F, G….I will ki11 my family”.  Images of mass sh00tings (and yes I changed the letters there so this wouldn’t get flagged) comes to mind every time I see the behavior of this guy!

If you happen to have time, would you go to his channel HERE and report him to YouTube?  Not out of spite, but so that other kids who do a search for a particular toy doesn’t find his videos and get corrupted by them. In the meantime pray for him as well.

So I first started titling this plan, “behavior towards unbelievers”.  Then realized quickly that we are to be cautious of our behavior to everyone; and as it started coming together, I changed the theme title to, “attitude”.  Attitudes towards each other, the lost, and ourselves too (I was softly reminded by the Holy Spirit).

We are the only Jesus many people will ever see, I’m reminded.  We are to be loving, kind, and humble like Jesus is. So “attitude” it is.  And with that…here is what the Lord gave me for August!

Hello everyone 🙂

This has been a super busy spring and beginning of summer here at my house.  I started my very first garden ever and have been busy out there getting it set up. It’s a container garden sat up on raised skids to work best with my bad knees and back (I’ll post about that here shortly).

I also began my weight loss efforts in great earnest (more about that to come).  The gardening work has been a great help in burning calories! 🙂

This month’s Scripture writing plan is a revisit of the one from July 2022.  I think it best that here in the states as we celebrate our Independence Day where we revere freedom and liberty (which we seem to be losing more and more each day…)  that we would do best to be reminded that only in CHRIST are we truly liberated and free!  Liberated from the curse of sin and death.  Liberated to be one with Christ and grow in Him daily!

I wish you all (no matter what part of the world you may be viewing this from) a very lovely Independence Day!
