  • Scripture Cards: These beautiful cards feature the specific verses we’ll be focusing on throughout the month—Psalms 78:1, 3-4, Psalm 79:9, Psalm 80:19, and Psalm 81:1-2. Each verse was carefully selected to guide you through themes of God’s guidance, His deliverance, His promise of restoration, and the joy found in His presence.

What to Look Forward To Each WeekThe scripture we’ll be focusing on offers so much to contemplate. Here’s a little sneak peek into the themes of each verse and what you might look forward to as you work through them:
  1. Psalms 78:1, 3-4 – These verses remind us of the importance of sharing God’s goodness and faithfulness with each generation. Writing these out will ground us in the joy of being part of His story, with a call to speak of His works to those around us. It’s all about rejoicing in who He is and what He’s done!
  2. Psalm 79:9 – This verse brings a powerful reminder of God’s mercy and deliverance. Writing it out will be a humbling experience, as we remember that God hears our cries and offers us redemption, even in our most broken places. This week’s focus will be deliverance and the hope it brings.
  3. Psalm 80:19 – Here, we see a plea for restoration, one that speaks to the heart of anyone who’s ever needed to be renewed. As you pen these words, meditate on how God restores not just our spirits, but every area of our lives. Our theme here is restoration—a beautiful reminder of how God lifts us and breathes new life into us.
  4. Psalm 81:1-2 – Joyful praise is the theme for this final week! These verses are a call to worship, encouraging us to lift our voices in celebration of God’s goodness. As we close out the month, we’ll reflect on God’s joy and the peace that fills us when we praise Him wholeheartedly.

SCRIPTURE WRITING GUIDE

There’s something so powerful about putting pen to paper—especially when it comes to writing out Scripture. In the middle of our busy lives—kids, work, and all the chaos—slowing down to handwrite the Word of God feels like a breath of fresh air. It gives us a chance to connect with God in a deeper, more personal way.

And do you know what’s amazing? Science even supports this! Writing by hand actually helps your brain process and remember things better. So, while you’re soaking in God’s wisdom, like Proverbs, you're not just growing spiritually, but you’re also giving your brain a healthy little workout. It’s like getting a double blessing—one for your soul and one for your mind!
​
I know how easy it is to get caught up in life’s distractions (believe me, I get it!), but writing out the Bible helps us slow down, really see the details we might’ve missed before, and feel more connected to God. Plus, it’s such a rewarding feeling to look back and see how much Scripture you’ve written, almost like a spiritual journal of growth
Picture
When you download your resources, you’re getting way more than just some printouts—it’s like your golden ticket to slow down and really dive into God’s Word! Writing out Scripture is a super cool way to meditate on what the Bible says, and it can totally change your heart and mind. So, as you grab your pen and paper, remember: this isn’t just another chore—it’s an exciting journey of reflection, connection, and discovery!
​

Here’s the fun part! I’ve picked out some awesome encouraging verses for you to write out in three different translations. Take your time with each word and really think about the cool messages they hold. There’s no need to rush or worry about making it look perfect; just enjoy this time of connecting with these powerful passages. Keep your resources close because we’ll dive even deeper into them together later on. Let’s make this a fun adventure!

Embracing Thanksgiving Through Psalm 23

10/25/2024

A few years ago, I found myself in a really hard situation . After undergoing major surgery, things didn’t go as planned, and just weeks later, I faced one of the scariest moments of my life--I became homeless. Feeling completely alone, lost, and unsure of what to do next was overwhelming. Yet, in the midst of that uncertainty, God did not abandon me. He sent friends who stepped in to help during this difficult time, reminding me that I wasn’t completely on my own.
I prayed earnestly for God to lead me to a safe place to live. With high rents in Brooklyn and my limited income, I was anxious about affording a home. But I kept seeking God’s guidance, holding on to the promises in Psalm 23: “He restores my soul. He guides me along the right paths for His name’s sake” (Psalm 23:3, NIV).
​
God worked a miracle! Just when I was about to lose hope, I found a one-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn—a place I could finally call my own. I was overwhelmed by God’s provision; He gave me exactly what I needed when I needed it most.

Finding Hope in Grief

A few years later, I faced another heartbreaking moment: I lost my mom to cancer. It was a devastating experience I never anticipated. Sitting thousands of miles away, I felt utterly helpless, longing to comfort her, hold her hand, and share my love one last time. Visa restrictions prevented me from visiting her during her final days, and the anguish of that distance was unbearable.
The pain of knowing she was suffering while I was far away weighed heavily on my heart. I felt trapped, torn between my desire to be with her and the reality of my situation. It was one of the darkest valleys I’ve ever faced, filled with shadows and uncertainty.

Yet, during those moments of deep sorrow, I clung to the promises of Psalm 23: “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me” (Psalm 23:4, NIV). God was with me, guiding me through my grief and pain. His presence became a source of comfort, reminding me that my mom was safe in His arms and that one day, I would be reunited with her.

A Journey of Restoration

Though the loss was profound, I began to see glimpses of God’s goodness and mercy following me through this difficult season. I learned to appreciate the little things—the support of friends who reached out and listened, and the precious memories of my mom that brought smiles amidst the tears.

God’s Faithfulness Through Every Path

Looking back, I can see that God’s goodness and mercy have been with me throughout my life, even during the hardest trials. My journey hasn’t been perfect; there have been painful moments and challenging trials, but those times are often when God carries us close to His heart.

Two years ago, I underwent another surgery and had to be resuscitated. I was then intubated and  fighting for my life.  Again, God’s faithfulness was evident. I witnessed His goodness in the anesthesiologist who kept me alive during a critical moment.
​
Life is filled with paths—paths of peace and rest, paths near streams and still waters, paths of restoration, loneliness, and correction. Yet, in every path, we can be assured that God is with us. Today, challenges may still arise, but I can confidently say that goodness and mercy are following us through this journey.

As we step into November, it’s the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and ignite our hearts with gratitude! This season, I’m thrilled to invite you to embark on a journey of Thanksgiving through the beautiful words of Psalm 23, where we’ll uncover the incredible ways God has been faithful in our lives. Together, we’ll explore His Divine Guidance, Provision, Restoration, Protection, Comfort, Blessings, and the unshakeable Hope He offers!
For the next four weeks, I’ll be documenting this exciting journey in a junk journal, sharing heartfelt stories and experiences that remind us to embrace gratitude in every moment. I can’t wait to see how this unfolds!
Here’s what to look forward to:

Week 1: Guidance & Provision
We’ll kick off our journey by focusing on Guidance and Provision. With the truth that “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1), we’ll be reminded to trust in God’s loving guidance and the abundant provision He offers for our every need!

Week 2: Restoration & Protection
In Week 2, we’ll dive into Restoration and Protection. As Psalm 23:3 beautifully states, “He restores my soul.” We’ll take a moment to acknowledge the comfort of knowing God is always by our side, guiding us along the right paths!

Week 3: Comfort & Blessings
Get ready for Week 3, where we’ll explore Comfort and Blessings. We’ll find peace in the powerful promise, “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me” (Psalm 23:4). God’s comforting presence is our assurance in every circumstance!

Week 4: Hope & Thanksgiving Celebration
Finally, in Week 4, we’ll celebrate Hope and reflect on our incredible journey together. As we embrace the truth of Psalm 23:6, “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,” we’ll give thanks for the countless blessings God has poured out upon us!
