- Words for the Week: Modern Habakkuk 3:17-18
In today's Words for the Week Christian Podcast, we will look at a modern day example of Habakkuk 3:17-18.
The original scripture reads this way:
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no
grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce
no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the
stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my
Savior.
Habakkuk 3:17-18
(Read all of Habakkuk 3)New International Version
But the version God gave me (and which I briefly discuss today) is:
Though the programmers do not program and there is no software to sell, though there is no ink in the cartridge and I don't know how to re-fill it, though there are no renters in the abandoned rental house and no one to pay the mortgage...yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior.

- Words for the Week Christian Podcast: From One Pumpkin to Another, by Penny Haynes of 1st Podcast Publishing
In today's Christian podcast, Words of the Week will share a short comparison about Christians and pumpkins, and how much we are alike.
Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin. God lifts you up, takes you in, and washes all the dirt off of you. He opens you up, touches you deep inside and scoops out all the yucky stuff-- including the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc. Then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside you to shine for all the world to see. This was passed on to me from another pumpkin. I'm sending this to all the pumpkins in my patch. Happy Fall!

With the school year already here and as a Christian parent
who home schools a certain scripture verse always comes to mind but more so
during this time of year that I wanted to share with you.
Deuteronomy 6:5-9 - Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all
your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today
are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when
you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when
you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.
Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
I pray this is my heart always and yours as well so we may train our children
up in the Lord, making a difference in their lives and societies as well.

I
wanted to inspire you today with a YouTube video that I came across the other
day on Lapbooking. Lapbooking I have
known about but after viewing this video it has given me some creative ideas on
doing some with my kids this year in order to make learning more fun and
enjoyable for them as well as create keepsakes of their work.
Enjoy

With the new school year coming up quickly and
the challenges that come from home schooling, I have not only been preparing by
getting our curriculum and home in order but have been preparing my mind as
well and praying that God guide me through this new school year.
The last two years of home schooling have went fairly well
but I also am aware of the mistakes I have made and this year I hope to do
better. And so my prayer is that God direct me in the path of His commands and
not toward selfish gain so that we can have more fun throughout this new school
year and that I teach my children a love for learning.

This weeks Words for the Week I bring you Christian Women’s Resources featured Kingdom Builder for the month of August. The theme for this month is on “Praise and Worship” and Pam Mendelson of www.northwoodsgiftemporium.com has many great reasons to praise and worship God but two main reasons are her son and daughter whom her and her husband were foster parents for but have since adopted them into their family.
Hear how God has done many miracles in their lives and how they continue to bless single mothers and children out there by continuing to meet a need out there for foster parents.

This weeks Words for the Week I want to share with you an inspirational article titled "Your Worth." It is written by an unknown author but it is a wonderful article that helps us keep our perspective on things in our lives.
Your Worth
By: Unknown Author
Do not undermine
worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are
different that each of us is special.
Do not set your goals
by what people deem important
Only you know what is
best for you.
Do not take for
granted the things closest to your heart
Cling to them as you
would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
Do no let your life
slip through your fingers by living in the past nor for the future
By living your life
one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
Do not give up when
you still have something to give
Nothing is really
over until the moment you stop trying.
It is a fragile
thread that binds us to each other.
Do not be afraid to
encounter risk, it is by taking chances that we learn to be brave.
Do not shut love out
of your life by saying it is impossible to find.
The quickest way to
receive love is to give love
The fastest way to
lose love is to hold onto it too tightly
In addition, the best
way to keep love is to give it wings
Do not dismiss your
dreams,
To be without dreams
is to be without hope, to be without hope is to be without purpose
Do not run through
life so fast that you forget not only where you have been,
but also where you
are going
Life is not a race
but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
So smile and let the
Son shine through, for God is watching over you.
I pray that you
are blessed and that you begin to slow down, dream dreams and live life one day at a time not taking anything for granted and living to the fullest with lots of love, hope and purpose.
