The World is My Oyster…

Daily writing prompt

What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail.

While I have no specific list of things off the top of my head that need attempting, I’m confident that if God asks it, it shall be done! If I am walking in faithful obedience to my heavenly Father, my Creator, and King… failure is not in the mix!

Things may not look like we sometimes think they should, and often we must step into a thing with far less ability than we have within us… but, God does not give us a task without providing His strength and skill to complete that which He has asked… so, I’m covered!

Just to put my bible where my mouth is:

Ephesians 3:20-21: God can do anything, working within us through his Spirit.

Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and he will make your paths straight.

Colossians 3:17: Do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father.

Jeremiah 29:11: The Lord has plans for you to prosper and give you hope and a future.

1 John 4: If we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

Other Bible verses about God include: Psalm 16:2, Psalm 34:8-10, Psalm 23:6, Psalm 65:11, and Psalm 107:8-9.

Here’s some coffee, tea, cookies…

Enjoy them while you’re reading.

Wednesday Words…

Eustace is downstairs, working out in the motel’s gym. He’s attempting to encourage me to come try it out. Well, if the camel can do it… then, I can too!

I shall courageously go forth into treadmill land vs. trail walks.

When in Rome…

Unforgettable Goals…

It’s a Twofer…

After going back and reading my response from last year, the only thing that I would add to my answer this year is this:

I did indeed finish that second book… you know, the fantasy/fiction story that I went on and on about. From that story was born another, so I now have a new personal goal marked on my mental chalk board… Volume II!

Oh yeah, don’t forget your cookie…

Cookies…

I wrote a little ditty that I thought was quite witty

But once I read my writing, it appeared to be less than exciting…

So I decided just to move on and come up with a whole different song

It’s about how I get you to lookie, by always offering each of you a cookie…

I start by speaking my mind

About answers the prompt seeks to find

It’s only right you should know how I feel

This girl just likes keepin things real…

If my words make you feel whiney

or if a bruise appears on your hiney

Just remember everyone writes with their own letters

And,

Take your cookie so you’ll start feeling better!

When, Now?

What is your favorite hobby or pastime?

What I find rather hilarious about answering this prompt is all my answers seem to be running in reverse, as far as my age and maturity are concerned.

Back in the day, when everyone my age was playing computer games, I was crocheting, cooking and camping. Then when I got older, and slower, I switched it over to doing the things I should have been doing when I was a kid!

While my arthritis and fibro prevent me from doing any of my usual hobbies, as well as, we are a bit homeless just now… my writing and gaming fingers are still on point!

I wrote something a while back, regarding myself, my husband, and my brother-in-law’s gaming techniques.

Either way, don’t forget to grab a fresh cookie on your way out…

Voyage Through the Unseen…

Traveling through mist and shadow

Light from her lantern never dims

She crosses the surface of dark waters

Where the monsters often swim…

No need for her to fear

That which is beyond her sight

She boldly ventures toward the unseen

Riding the waves into the night!

Lemme See…

What would you do if you lost all your possessions?

View all responses

Well, I suppose that we would take whatever cash we had in our pocket and buy an old RV. Then we would travel across the entire U.S. in said RV. Then we would live in said RV for four years, before it became broken beyond our ability to repair it. When that happened, I guess we would have to become homeless and live in a motel, until such time that we could afford to live anywhere else.

Ya, I think that about sums up what I would do if I lost all my possessions.

Here, have a cookie…

Thursday Thoughts…

I had such plans last night as I drifted off to sleep, thinking I would be diving right back into writing this morning. Ha! Double Ha!!

I’m just sitting here, staring at my laptop… and my head is just empty, for better lack of description.

So much in so short a time has me in a bit of a tailspin, if you know what I mean. I don’t know whether I’m coming or going… what I should be doing, need to be doing… sheesh! I finally decided to just start writing and figure it out as I go along.

Watching them haul our RV off to storage was a very strange feeling to me, sort of bitter sweet. We’ve been in that old girl for four years, and she gave us her all! While I can say we made it through, I certainly would not have wished the experience on anyone else. It has been a journey, to say the least.

You know, I have taken more showers in the last three days than I care to admit… I couldn’t help it! The realization that it has been nearly a year without hot water or a working toilet is crazy! There’s even a dishwasher in our room… Can you believe that it’s been nearly ten years since I had my own dishwasher?

Honestly, God used each and every one of you during these last few years! Your encouragement, your love and laughter, and all of your prayers have been so very important to me, more than I can ever truly express!

While it may take a bit of adjusting, as we’re still in transition for a little longer, my hope is to get back to writing more steadily soon.

I love you all so much, and I’m so grateful for having you in my life… thank you!
