Thursday things

 

Happy Thursday, friends! I am still laughing and shaking my head at myself for my blog blunder yesterday. I can't believe I completely forgot about the Currently link party! I'd gone to bed on Tuesday night and as I was falling to sleep around the ten o'clock hour, I thought to myself, "I wonder if I ever scheduled that post to publish?" I couldn't definitively one way or the other, but the bottom line was, in no way was I going to get up and go do that at that hour. I figured I'd fix it in the morning, if I'd forgotten. The funny thing is, I thought I'd already written the post, but I hadn't! That's why mine was so short and sweet; I was writing it at six a.m. Wednesday morning. Oh well, right? It all turned out fine. Do you get brain fog when you're sick? I felt like I was operating in that all day long yesterday. 

Anyway, I thought I'd share a few things that were inspiring to me today. As always, I figure if they're good for me to read and remember, chances are someone else will feel the same. 

I think I've shared this picture below before, but I needed this reminder yesterday. 

It's such a great reminder to trust in God, His timing and His sovereignty. 

I loved what this image below says! I have said something similar in talking to a friend before. 

It's better to be quick to pray, rather than quick to vent. I have had times that I've literally stopped myself from calling someone to talk about what just happened to me, and instead, I've poured my heart out to the Lord.

On a much lighter note, I love the thought of a capsule wardrobe. I know this isn't for everyone, but I love the idea of this. I'm actually pretty close to having something along these lines. 

I think this is easier to accomplish in the cooler months, because of layering with third pieces. 

Do you use Pinterest for inspiration? I use it for everything from meals to nail ideas.

I get my nails done once a month, which means I plan them out in advance, since I'm nerdy like that. I have black on right now and I'll wear it until Thanksgiving, then I'll switch to glittery red for Christmas. I have done a sparkly white for January, but I also love this color above and may do something similar. 

I love this below! I may write these out each day in November. I always miss doing this when I skip a month. 

You could just read these each day as well, but I love to write out Scripture because it helps me to remember it better. Have you ever done that? 

Lastly, I love this about the month of November.

I think these are excellent things we could learn to put into practice not just this month, but every month. 

Thanks for reading my blog, friends! Love to all.
