My no television days are over...maybe,,,,

So last was the last night that I would be fasting my television. So instead of going back to turning my tv on when I wake up (for background noise), I have decided that I am not tuning it on unless there is a show I feel I really want to see. Those come on usually at 9 or 10 so that means after the girls are asleep.

Since I have shut the tv off....

I have seen McKenzie move from the tv to her room and really play.

I have really spent more time playing with my girls, myself.

I have spent more time in prayer and reading my Bible.

I AM LEARNING how to cope with silence.

I hear God speak more clearly.

I am learning discipline and Obediance.



Psalm 46:10

"Be still and know that I am God"

So last night McKenzie and I made a tent with blankets and the dining table. We played games in our tent, had snacks, read stories and sang silly songs. So I stepped out of myself. If you know me then you know I have a hard time having anything in my house not in its correct place and almost everything has a place. But I didnt worry about it and we had a great time. McKenzie kept telling me how much fun she was having. Tonight we are going to paint our nails and watch the little mermaid together. Anyhow, I have realized what I could be doing with my time rather than watching so much television. I missed the meeting for the India trip, so hopefully I can still find out more about it and hopefully have the oppotunity to go. I am just so excited with all that God is doing. 2008 is a year of great things coming my way!!!
