Another good blog I'm following

Penny Zeller's blog,
 A Day in the Life of a Wife, Mom, & Author
Is interesting, humorous and thought provoking.
I recommend this blog to anyone who enjoys reading about family friendly news and reviews.


I just read her review of the movie, Courageous. I haven't seen it,yet, but am really looking forward to it! Her review of it is so good, I want to go out and get the movie for all my family to see.

Check it out and decide for yourself how good a blog it it :)

Game Of Your Life, the movie

I had the chance to preview the movie "Game Of Your Life".
I was skeptical about it because I'm not a gamer and don't usually get into movies with a lot of gaming jargon.
This movie is different. While it is mainly about a young man, Zac Taylor, who is a gaming genius, the heart of the story is about family, honor and loyalty.
  We all have choices to make and those choices form who we are and who we become. Zac's dad encouraged him to "create the change this world needs", which helped Zac decide his game plan.

  If you had a chance to make enough money to pay off all your bills, but it cost you your friendships, what would you choose? You can find out more about this dilemma..

  Game Of Your Life will be airing Friday, December 2nd at 8/7c on NBC

Here are a few links you can check out in the mean time :)

Verses of Thanks =)

As we approach the holiday season, we are reminded to give thanks for what we have.
 As one person said to me recently, we should have Thanksgiving more often  so people can appreciate what they have more.

  I agree that being thankful isn't just a one day event, but a daily outlook.
This is a quick video of saying thanks in different languages: http://vimeo.com/2381282

 Here are a few verses I found through Bible gateway, I'm thankful for that helpful resource:

1 Chronicles 16:34
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

2 Chronicles 5:13
The trumpeters and musicians joined in unison to give praise and thanks to the LORD. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and other instruments, the singers raised their voices in praise to the LORD and sang: “He is good; his love endures forever.” Then the temple of the LORD was filled with the cloud,

Ezra 3:11
With praise and thanksgiving they sang to the LORD: “He is good; his love toward Israel endures forever.” And all the people gave a great shout of praise to the LORD

Psalm 7:17
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.

Matthew 26:26
While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples...
Mark 6:41
Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.
Romans 1:21
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened
Romans 7:25
Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!

1 Corinthians 10:16
Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?
1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 7:12
saying: “Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!”


I hope you have an awesome holiday season and find deeper meaning in what we celebrate <3
Thanks for reasding this humble blog =)
