What’s Inspiring You This Week?
Here’s What’s Inspiring Me…
Inspiration From God’s Word
Photo Credit & Devotional: Patsty at Heartworks
In the Fall, I am always reminded of the passage of time.
How quickly time flies… how little time we all seem to have.
The Bible clearly addresses this issue as well.
In Psalm 90:12, we are taught to ask God to
Teach us to number our days,
That we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Time is a popular topic in our culture as well.
How many books, movies and songs can you think of that
Relate to time in one way, shape or form?
This week I’m sharing one of my favorite popular songs about time.
I hope you enjoy the performance!
Song Of The Week – Time After Time – Cindi Lauper
If you fall
I will catch you
I will be waiting
Time after time.
Book Of The Week – NIV Pink Bible – An Invitation To Hope
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
This beautiful specialty Bible offers
Encouragement and sustenance to those
Whose lives have been impacted.
Give the gift of hope today!
Whose lives are you touching with your creations?

Inspire Me Monday #92 – Week Of October 6, 2013
I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
