Insecurity & A Goal for 2010???

December 1st is a mere six hours away! Parts of 2009 have sped by, and parts have been S-L-O-W (though with 2 kids, time generally flies). I can not believe that I am on track to complete my "Goal for 2009" - memorizing 24 pieces of scripture with my siestas on The LPM Blog. I am not completely up-to-date, but I know it would only take a few days of concentrated effort. Should I continue working on this goal into 2010??? Still thinking about it.... I want to, but I am not certain, yet.

Beth Moore has introduced a new group activity on her blog. Her newest book, "So Long Insecurity: You've Been a Bad Friend to Us," hits the market in early February. Because of the enormous impact of insecurity upon women, this writing project really struck a different kind of chord with Beth. The Ministry is sponsoring a book club of sorts through her blog - you can read about it here.

I read about the book blog right before Thanksgiving, and I was really, really missing my family last week.... So, I believe the Lord led me to invite family members to join me in reading Beth's newest book beginning in February. The group read will conclude around April 24th - the weekend of Beth's next simulcast covering the book's topic. My Aunt Kathi and I have an agreement - she will read the book, IF I agree to come to the Seattle area for the simulcast and a family girls' weekend. It is a done deal, friends! And, I could not be more excited. This is an example of how technology is used for the glory of God!

Chances are great that I will blog about my personal experiences (not those of my family members) with the book as I read it.... If you want to be on the same page, plan on obtaining the book in February. I sense something quite significant will come from sharing in this experience with other women.

Oh December, I thought you'd never come....
Now that you're here,
I am sooo looking forward to February and April!
Thank you, Lord, for the joy of anticipation!
