~ A Tag of Five ~

A tag of Five...

I was tagged by bubbebobbie

This was real good tag and I had to really put some thought into it.  If you read this and want to be tagged ..... YOUR IT.  And let me know you did the tag so I can visit and read your tag.

Five Things You Can't Get Enough Of:

  1. Being amazed by my Lord in what he can do and what he is doing.  I do believe in God's miracles for today,
  2. Hugs , kisses,  and chocolate.
  3. encouragement from my SS'sIC
  4. My time sitting at the feet of my Lord in prayer or word
  5. I love listening to missionaries and the amazing testimonies of what God is doing for his kingdom.

Five Things You Really Don't Want and Wish You Didn't Have:

  1. Disharmony with my neighbor
  2. my children to follow any other than God
  3. for my temporary water system not to unfreeze in time for us to move into "The House that God Built."
  4. to be at odds with any dear sweet friend or family
  5. I really don’t want the miles between me and my best friend, but Jesus is Lord<  I didn't think up this one but it is so true.

Five(some of my) Favorite Bible Verses:

  1. Ecclesiastes 4:8-12
  2. James 1:2-5
  3. Matthew 6:25-34
  4. Psalms  20
  5.  Psalms  121

 Five Things You Want to Do This Year

  1. Move and get settled into "The House that God Built"
  2. Get started in applying  Heart of Wisdom Teaching Approach
  3. to be more consistent with my daily reading of God's word.  I am trying to read the Bible in 2 years.
  4. Get a handle on my family routines ( in all areas)
  5. To keep decluttering with the Flylady

Five People You want to tag:( if they want to (0=  )

Mar. 2, 2007 - Oh I love those

Posted by bubbebobbie
First I love the invitation! Thanks! It would be good to meet you too.
I love your Pslm 121 it is very connected to out family. It is the verse my Husband chose for our church (in the future) and the kids congregation is called Harei Yeshua, and that means the Hills of Jesus. And when you do a Messianic Jewish baby dedication, you read all of Psalm 121. I am glad you picked that one.

So, what is your favorite Chocolate?

Because of Jesus, bobbie

I would love it if you joined the 365 days of photos : ) Not much to it, you can either post a photo every day like I do or some post a weeks worth of photos once a week. Then at the end of your 365 days you can look back at the year and have a complete photo journal of what you saw and did etc. Let me know if you want to join and I'll add you to my list : )
Blessings,
Rosina

Handsome and I




First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 10, and 8. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north. We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
