2021 Home Photo Challenge 1-15-21
The Home Photo Challenge was fun for me last year. Since I do not think much is going to be changing for me in the way of travel this year, I am going to continue the challenge for myself into 2021. This year I am going to add a little twist. I will give a brief description of each photo I take and write a Haiku to go along with it.
IF YOU WANT TO JOIN IN THE FUN.JUST TAKE A PHOTO IN OR AROUND YOUR HOME AND WRITE YOUR OWN BLOG AND POST THE LINK IN THE COMMENTS SECTION BELOW IT.

A whole world’s in a
Drop of rain. I’m wondering
What’s inside of me.
The Discovery Of Gifts
On this, day 5 of our 21 days of fasting and prayer we are praying into the discovery of our God given gifts.
HERE ARE SOME THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR GOD GIVEN GIFTS.
- THEY HAVE MNORE TO DO WITH YOUR PERSONALITY THAN YOUR TALENTS.
- THEY ARE YOUR MOTIVATIONS FROM WHICH YOU UNDERSTAND AND INTERACT WITH THE WORLD.
- YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN A GIFT BY GOD WHETHER YOU BELIVE IN HIM OR NOT.
- YOU USE THAT GIFT EVERYDAY WHETHER YOU BELIVE IN HIM OR NOT.
- USING YOUR GIFT IN FAITH CAUSES THE GIFT TO COME TO ITS MOST POWERFUL MANIFESTATION.
IF YOU ARE FASTING AND PRAYING WITH US, HOW IS THE FAST GOING? WHAT ARE YOU HEARING FROM GOD IN YOUR PRAYER TIMES?
Sending
Here is The Wall Prayer meeting from last night. It incorporates my ideas for our day 4 regarding being sent on the mission of God.

The sun shines through dust,
Reminds me dirt is redeemed
When light filters through.
Reaching
Yesterday was a very busy DLT day. If you don’t know what a DLT day is you can discover it by clicking HERE.
Our church has entered day 4 of it season of fasting and prayer. God has given us a very concrete direction for prayer. This week we are focusing on:
DAY 1- KNOWING JESUS AND MAKING HIM KNOWN
DAY 2- DOING LIFE TOGETHER
DAY 3- REACHING THE LOST
DAY 4- SENDING THE FOUND
DAY 5- DISCOVERING OUR GIFTS
DAY 6- CHANGING THE WORLD
Here is yesterday’s video post on Reaching the Lost.
What the Lord has shown us is that Reaching the lost in our community is going to be done through Doing Life Together with people who have not yet made a connection with Jesus. That is: breaking bread together, sharing Scripture with, praying with, and mutually meeting needs with folks who have not yet made a decision to trust Jesus Christ as God.

Floating over my head bring joy.
Make hearts find their rest.
Share Your World 1-11-21
It is time once again for SHARE YOUR WORLD. This is the weekly challenge where Melanie, from Sparks From A Combustible Mind , asks us several questions and in answering them we all share our worlds. You can read other contributors and or join the challenge by clicking the underlined link above….and now on to the questions!

QUESTIONS:
What should you get rid off, that would make your new year better, and why? (Don’t say Covid-19, we all want to get rid of the dang virus) I snagged this question from another blogger, but failed to note who thought it up. My apologies! I KNOW better than to trust my memory any more. If it’s your question and you’d like credit, please let me know! Great question too, in my opinion!
I am getting rid of some flubber around my midsection. That will help me have a more energetic year for sure!!!!

What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?
Walking this last year in financial faith is probably the most daring act of faith I have ever taken. It has been amazing!
Does your family have a “motto” – spoken or unspoken?
My daughter says we have two mottos….”Did that hurt?” and “How’d that feel?”
My sister says our family mottos are “Suck it Sally” or “Are ya’ gonna do that again?” or “I’ll give you somethin’ to cry about.”
I was unaware that any of these statements rose to motto status…but apparently…….

On a scale of 1-10 how funny would you say you are? (this does not mean ‘smell’ or looks; because this is a judgment free blog!)
Ummm……my daughter said -6 but I think that’s a judgment.

GRATITUDE SECTION
Tell everyone something that you found personally lifted your spirits!
Aside from the most obvious answers for me which are prayer, worship and reading the Bible, I have found that eating cookies while doing any of these activities personally lifts my spirits….of course it does nothing whatsoever for my flubbery midsection.
