A Cup of Tea With Me

Good morning! My day got off with a good reading and some blogging. How about yours?

1) Refresh your spirit:
Today I read my Thursday reading of “Light of The World” in Praying the Names of Jesus.

Matthew 5:14-16 (NASB):
¹⁴ “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;
¹⁵ nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
¹⁶ “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Philippians 2:14-16 (NASB):
¹⁴ Do all things without grumbling or disputing;
¹⁵ so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world,
¹⁶holding fast the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I will have reason to glory because I did not run in vain nor toil in vain.

These are the verses that I will be meditating on today, as I go about my day, looking to Him to guide my path.

2) Take Time to Plan
I work today, so my planning will be centered around that.

• Work
• Buy dishwasher detergent that I forgot at the grocery store yesterday
• Pick up the living room
• Finish my last load of laundry from yesterday
• Do one load of laundry from today
• Pay bills
• Buy that last gift for Christmas
• Make the returns that need made
• Clean the bathroom

For dinner tonight we are having Cube Steak and Mac & Cheese. I know it is not a “fancy” dinner, but Hubby loves it, and that is what matters.

3) Do Something!
Today’s “Do Something!” is to maintain the rooms we have cleaned and to clean the bathrooms. I will just be able to pick up the bathrooms and clean the toilet in the boys bathroom. I am not sure I will have time to do the rest of the bathrooms, but I will certainly try.

I will not be home most of the day to mark things off the list as I finish them. I will update this when I get the chance.

God bless you all and have a great day, making your home a haven for your family. Stop by and see Crystal for more details on this challenge.
