Share Four Somethings October 2025

Well, I completely spaced that last Saturday was the last weekend in October. This year is zooming by and I am not keeping up as well as I would like. It was a rough month with being sick the first half of it, and several family members ending up in the hospital, (they are out now, thank God), and the government shut down. The longest they have every shut down is 35 days and we are quickly approaching that. We are doing okay, but I am ready for my hubby to get paid. Anyway, I am glad to be back for another month of sharing. Our prompts for the Share Four Somethings link-up are some things we loved, somethings we learned, some things that went well, and some things we let go of. We are linking up with Jennifer! 

Something Loved 

I loved celebrating Kayla's 23rd birthday this month! It's so hard to believe she is a real adult, with a real job, living on her own. I am so stinkin' proud of her!

Something Learned

I finished two fabulous nonfiction books this month, which I learned things from. The first was Follow God's Will: Biblical Guidelines for Everyday Life by Brittany Ann. A quote that spoke to me: Simply believing that Jesus existed or that He was a good moral teacher isn't enough. Jesus isn't calling us to be believe that he existed but to believe that He is who He says He is and He can do what He says He can do.

The second book was Flourish: Grace-Centered Practices to Protect and Grow a Fruitful Life In Christ by Ava Pennington.  A quote that spoke to me: ...When you cannot hear God, you will find that He has trusted you in the most intimate way possible-with absolute silence, not a silence of despair, but one of pleasure, because He saw that you could withstand an even bigger revelation. 

Both books are fabulous and I highly recommend them.

Something That Went Well

Again, it was a harder month, but I did some extra blogging and I did Thursday encouragement posts each week. Celebrating Kayla's birthday also went well. 

Something I Let Go Of

I am still letting go of books. I also took more time to go through clothes and cleaned out more. I had some I was holding onto because of who gave them to me, but I wasn't wearing them. I don't want to be a storage facility so I got rid of them. I still need to go through my church clothes, but I wasn't quite ready to do that yet.

"To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen." Philippians 4:20

 "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17
