#110 posting

Hello! Just thought I would share this creepy cool thing with you all. After I had posted last Wednesday (Sept. 9), I realized that it was posting number 109 on my blog. 109! on September 9, 2009...boy, that is just creepy cool...yes, that is a phrase that one of my friends and I use. It is very true about this ironic event on my blog.
Hope you all had a good weekend and a good start of the week. Since we are on 9s, why don't you all read Psalm 109? Just a suggestion...I may read it myself.
Okay, enough with the nine's now. This is posting #110. So, my niece had her second v-ball game today and they won their match. Our Mosaic group at church met for the first time this school year to discuss what we may want to study (or more importantly what He wants us to learn) this fall. A good idea brought up was to do subject studies, or as I called it, word studies. You all know, or do know now I do love word studies!
I happened to glance at the calendar on the wall since it is by the computer and realized something. Today is the 195th anniversary of the national anthem being written (1814) by Francis Scott Key. That means that five years from today I will hold a patriotic party since I am such a patriotic gal.

Shine on 09/09/09

Hello! Hope you all are doing well. Just had to post on this special day, the ninth day of the ninth month of the two thousandth ninth year. Hmm...that is just like reading something that happened on the third day of the third month or the tenth day of the first month. Maybe I should do a 'number' study in the Bible and see what I find and let you know what I come across. That might be a very complex study considering ALL the things/events that happened on specified days made known to us in the Word. I especially like this day as the Chinese people like the number 9 as it brings long life and success. It means the complete opposite or close to it for the Japanese...they do not like the number 9. At least that is what I think I heard on the radio. The next day to happen with this series is January 1, 2101 and also the next century January 1, 3001 but I doubt that most of us will still be here on the latter date.
You know how you will hear a song more than once on a day within hours and it gets in your head? Well it happened to me today. This morning I heard the new song from TobyMac called City on our knees TWICE and then coming home I heard it AGAIN. I really LOVE that song and have to wait until his new CD comes out next February. Yep, that is right...February 2010. Patience is a virtue and a fruit of the Spirit, right? Right. The next time you hear that song, listen to the words. Times we are in right now is a good time to be on our knees to the Lord and pray for guidance and wisdom and to come together as a family. (the song is going through my head RIGHT NOW).
