Fab Five {31}



Every Friday we reflect on our week and post Five Fabulous things.

Sometimes it is not always easy.
But, we do it!

We ponder on the good of our week.
We encourage you to do the same.

Share with us!!
We love reading how your week has been too!!

1) This week I am grateful for:

Falen:  God's provision, blessings that flow from obedience, my husband listening to me whine and text messages. 

Laura:  Friends who tell me what I need to hear and not what I want to hear.
 
2) This week I enjoyed:

Falen:  Meeting my Carabox partners for the month of February, overhearing my husband listening to worship music, booking a few Arbonne parties, and hanging out with a few #CoffeeAndJesus girls during the week.
 
 

Laura:  Being the tooth fairy!  Baby girl is growing up too fast...lost her first tooth!
 

 3) This week I learned:

Falen:  Again that blessings flow from obedience.... so next time I wanna take control or choose comfort, remember to go for pleasing God not Falen.  The blessing is far better than anything I can ever imagine.

Laura:  Those internal thoughts of condemnation that I speak to myself over and over...yeah, they sound ridiculous when said out loud.  Lesson learned!!

4) This week I accomplished:

Falen:  Not letting what other people say define me or rob me of my worth and identity.  Thank God for that!  And a lot of stepping out in faith, trusting God with what's next, and buckling up for the ride!  Weeee!!!
 
Laura:  Lots of homework, unpacking a little, and more homework :)

5) I am looking forward to:

Falen:  Whatever God has in store for me in these next few weeks, game night with some incredible people that God gifted to lil' ole me, and next Friday is Love Worth Fighting For with Kirk Cameron!

Laura: Having a relaxing weekend complete with sleeping in, a movie or two, attending a Kairos reunion...oh yeah, and STUDY, Study, study (it's never caught up)
 
We look forward to hearing from you every week.
So, please share something the positive from your week.
We love to learn about you, engage with you, and get to know you.
Have a great weekend!!

A few times people have mentioned their interest in a Fab Five post structured like ours.  If you post a Fab Five Friday post, share it with us!  We enjoy reading them!

  2. I didn't do any sort of high five Friday, mostly because I didn't schedule anything last night and also because it was a rough, rough morning. BUT, I wanted to thank you for YOUR fab 5, and, if you don't mind, share here what my responses would be. :)

    1) This week I am grateful for:
    God's protection. This morning I had a bit of an accident with a school bus and God was definitely protecting me (I'm a car magnet, what can I say). I'm also grateful for love and joy, and the people I am blessed to call mine (my friends, family and boyfriend).

    2) This week I enjoyed:
    Falen, I enjoyed meeting you too!! :) I also enjoyed getting to work on some fun things for work and having a somewhat relaxing overall week.

    3) This week I learned:
    That God has a great plan and I just need to trust that His timing is much better than my own. Success? This week, yes, so I'm glad I learned it without learning it the hard way :)

    4) This week I accomplished:
    Cleaning my room. I hate cleaning my room. Yet it did it. And I washed the dishes. AND made Rice Krispy Treats. Score.

    5) I am looking forward to:
    Sleeping in tomorrow morning. A girl can hope, right?!

  3. I'm reading Ann Voskamp's 1000 Gifts and have started my own notebook to fill with 1,000 joys and gifts and thanksgivings from each day of my life. It's caused me to see the glass half full (it's always been near empty to me;) and has lifted me up so much! I'm so thankful for her book, for the Bible, and for the Lord. And my husband, and my daughter, and my son, and our dog .........

    Thanks for asking, thanks for sharing your lives,

    Mary
