4:00 A.M. Rambling from the "good girl"

I woke up this morning with this thought.  I hope that my sharing my journey and struggle to memorize the book of James does  not come across as bragging.  I know that I am not very smart.  I was a solid "b" student.  I was not that bright. I just studied hard.  After all,  back then you could not be a cheer leader without being on the honor roll.  The ability to study really helped in college and I even  made all A"s one semester.

  I stink at trivia pursuit.  I get words mixed up and I am not an English Major.  I can not figure out this computer thing and constantly mess up face book blogs.  I get confused between face book and e-mail, and texting.  The only reason I can  blog,  is my daughter set it  up so easy that all I have to do is push My blog and post publish.  I am still afraid of this computer and it still drives me crazy.  I can not figure our why the word facebook keeps showing up in my dialogue. Even spell check can not figure out what word I am trying to spell.

  I am doing this blog because  I feel like it pleases God.  I write what He wants me to write. It started out as a way for me to "take" family and friends on our travels.  We  love telling stories about our trips and this was just a way to do that. Our business is called Travel  Treasures.  The treasure is the travel with the man I love.

  But this memorizing scripture is another journey that I am on and I want to bring you along with me on this journey.  God have given me a passion for His word.  It  started with me being the "good girl" who read my Bible daily,  because I knew that was what you were suppose to do.  I did more skimming than reading and would be half way through the chapter and realize that my mind had wandered  during most of it.  Then I discovered Ladies Bible study and realized that I loved it for the fellowship and the incentive to study.  After all. the"good girl" always does her home work. Then God gave me Bible Drill where I learned much more than any of my kids.  I was not a great teacher, but I was their #1 cheerleader and I loved them.

Now that Mark I travel.  I am given the rare opportunity of having a lot of time in the passenger seat.  Mark drives and listens to the radio and I study mile after mile.  I am sure that Mark enjoys me being quieter than ever.  So, there have it.  Four A.M. rambling from  the " good girl "  who  is now an older girl and  a student forever  with so much to learn.  Please remember, if I can do it,  so can you .  After all, if you are a child of God, you have the greatest teacher in the world living inside you.
