Whimsy is…

setting up a budget

WOO WEE!! The fun the word “budget” brings to mind. I can hear you all now “oh please whimsy, please let us in on the fun”
Well since you asked and all, I will share parts of it.
I don’t know if you all know this, but, if you ask God […]

hard hearted

I had no idea. I would not have described myself that way, but the Father pointed it out to me this morning. It’s right there in His word. (emphasis mine)
Mark 6:50-52
Immediately he spoke to them and said, “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” 51Then he climbed into the boat with them, […]

shaking in her boots

God is stretching on me today. Well, actually He’s been trying for a while now, and I’m finally giving in.
He’s asking me to step out in faith and boy am I scared. Does that mean I don’t really have faith? Why am I so scared? He’s never, I mean […]

eating manna

God woke me up early this morning to read Exodus 16.
For some reason, watching Him provide for our needs time after time was not relieving my fear that He wouldn’t in the future. (yeah, because God’s really one to go back on His word) *insert rolling eyes here*
In my mind, I […]

I find that my power lies in […]

getting to know God

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard the Bible refered to as God’s love letters to us. I still saw it as a rule book. I was saved and had a great many conversations with Jesus, but I was missing something.
When I opened my Bible to read, I was looking for “do […]

falling into old patterns

In the last few weeks, I’ve seen God do amazing and incredible things for our family. So why, with a new challenge presenting itself, do I fall back into my old patterns of worry?
God has assured me that all will be OK. Yet I find myself continually going back to the problem. […]

breaking through

I am totally having a breakthrough with this umbrella thing. It’s such a simple thing.
Stay under God’s umbrella.
But lifechanging none the less.
As I sat in church this morning, I was overwhelmed with what God is doing for me. I am seeing some amazing things that I may not have even noticed […]

potty talking with God

I must admit I think my title is pretty clever. I’m afraid that the end of the cleverness from me in this post though. It’s really a pretty straightforward post from here on out.
(slight pause while I search for just the right picture I want to put here……still undecided, I’ll come back to […]
