Thoughts and Perspectives From the Mind of a Common Girl
Every week, I feel like my projects get more difficult, and as simple as this one looks with just a couple of boxes and a ball, it really was my most difficult project yet. This one was sketched using a 2B and 6B graphite pencil and took a couple of days to complete. I’m just relieved that it’s done, and feel like I could still spend a few more hours perfecting it even now. However, I’ve already turned in this project for the week and I’m ready to never have to look at this one again! Lol…
At the dinner table, the question of the day was…
If you happened along a creepy tunnel, and you saw a light at the end of it, would you venture in further to investigate where the light was coming from?
Both of my girls said, that they would investigate the light, and I said I’d turn around and go back the way in which I came. Brianna thought that was unwise, and said the place I came from was probably worse. I said, “Well, I came from that place and survived, so it must not have been that bad.” And yet she insisted that going towards the light in the creepy tunnel was still the better option. Then at the last minute she added this… “Well mom, you’re forgetting… we all initially came from a creepy tunnel.” I couldn’t help but bust out laughing. The joke was totally lost on little Auti. Thank goodness for that!

Today I wanted to talk a little bit about who God really is. Have you ever really thought about what God is like? I have spent years compiling a list of the attributes of God. On days when I feel distant from Him, I reach for my list to see the way the Bible defines Him. Somehow knowing what He is like, gives me more confidence in my relationship with Him. The Bible holds the truth about who He is and what He stands for, so that we can gain a better understanding of Him. I would like to share with you the list that I have put together, and I would also like to know if any of you have something to add to the list and where it can be found in the Bible. Here’s my list:
God is….
Do any of these attributes speak to your heart more than another? The last two are my favorite… He is a victorious warrior and the shepherd and guardian of my soul. Who could want anything more? Please feel free to add your attributes of God in the comments section and also add the reference for where you found the attribute. I would love to add more to my ever growing list!
I also found this as I was researching…
