In Christ
Ephesians 2:4-7
4-5 However, God is rich in mercy. He brought us to life with Christ while we were dead as a result of those things that we did wrong. He did this because of the great love that he has for us. You are saved by God’s grace! 6 And God raised us up and seated us in the heavens with Christ Jesus. 7 God did this to show future generations the greatness of his grace by the goodness that God has shown us in Christ Jesus.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meal Plan
The Lord is my Tower
Psalm 61:1-4
For the music leader, with stringed instruments. Of David.
1 God, listen to my cry;
pay attention to my prayer!
2 When my heart is weak,
I cry out to you
from the very ends of the earth.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I am
3 because you have been my refuge,
a tower of strength
in the face of the enemy.
4 Please let me live in your tent forever!
Please let me take refuge
in the shelter of your wings!
Selah

Common English Bible
What is the CEB?
The Common English Bible is more than a revision or update of an existing translation. It’s an ambitious new translation designed to read smoothly and naturally without compromising the accuracy of the Bible text.
A key goal of the translation team is to make the Bible accessible to a broad range of people; it’s written at a comfortable level for nearly all English readers. As the translators do their work, reading specialists working with 77 reading groups from more than a dozen denominations review the texts to ensure a smooth and natural reading experience. Easy readability can enhance church worship and participation, and personal Bible study. It also encourages children and youth to discover the Bible for themselves, perhaps for the very first time.

Remembering God's Character
“May the Lord of peace himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with all of you.” 2 Thess. 3:16 (CEB)
I praise you Lord for you are my PEACE, which means I don’t have to look at my fears and the storms all around me, I only need to come to you believing and trusting that you are my anchor of hope, and you hold me in the palm of your hand.
“Don’t fear, because I am with you;
I will strengthen you,
I will surely help you;
I will hold you
with my righteous strong hand.”
Isaiah 41:10 (CEB)

iCal continued
using iCal
Sheri Graham has really inspired me to actually do some of the things I've been meaning to do but never got around to doing!
I've wanted for years to utilize the iCal program on the computer for daily routines, menu plans, cleaning chores, coordinating family schedules and the like. Well that's what I started this morning!
The purple is the daily menu plan. I've always planned menus, but this past year I've changed my planning process. I plan meals around what's on sale & what's in my pantry. To do this long range planning I need a more open concept instead of fixed meals for each day of the month. In order for me to take advantage of my pantry/stockpile and sales, my plan is like this Sunday-Feast-Roast/Ham; Monday-Leftovers; Tuesday-Mexican; Wednesday-Pasta; Thursday- Casserole/Crock-pot;
Friday-Pizza; Saturday-Cook's Choice. Monday and Saturday can easily be flipped around.
The red line is the monthly cleaning focus for each week- wk 1-Kitchen, wk 2-Living Room, wk 3-Bedrooms, wk 4- Baths/Halls
The blue lines are the daily chores.
Not totally convinced that I should do school assignments on the ical. It is so quick and easy to use my index card method, and easier to change around when needed.
