Aloha Friday - Movie

"In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response." To participate just post your own question on your blog, head over to An Island Life, and fill out Mr. Linky.

My question:

I love watching movies. I watch different genres of movies from action, romantic, drama and others. One movie that really touched my heart recently is the movie Marley and Me. I even wrote a post about it.

What is a recent movie which you really liked?

Thankful Thursday # 4

Today, I am thankful for the blessings I have received in the blogsphere. I have started blogging September 2008. My first site is The Mommy Journey. I wasn't sure if anyone would be reading it all but I knew that I just wanted to share my experiences as a SAHM and be able to learn from other moms too. Eventually, I was glad to come across so many SAHM, WAHM and working moms here and around the globe. Some of them became good online friends. God has allowed me to start a weekly photo meme called Mommy Moments where all moms can come and share something about their motherhood experiences. I am grateful for the positive response!

Now, I have started my 2nd site, Inspiration Insights. My purpose for starting this site is to share insights about life, practical and spiritual. It has been a month. I know that I have a lot more to develop here, but I am just thankful that people do drop by here once in awhile.

Thank you Lord for opening such a wonderful avenue for me to share my life and the testimony of your greatness in our lives.

How about you? What are you thankful for today?

Are You Engaged?

I am a regular reader of At The Well. It's At The Well Gathering every Monday has been one of the very first meme I joined over the blogsphere. I have learned a lot from other Christian moms and met some great blogger friends too.


Today's topic is about raising our children. I invite you to check out the post. The title of the article written by Michelle is "Are You Engaged?" Here are her questions...

"Are your mind and heart seemingly disengaged in your role as Mama?

Do you hustle and bustle through your busy day sometimes never even looking into each of your children's eyes?

Are you busy "keeping your home" and all that that involves that you, many days miss the very little ones you are called to love and disciple?

Do you often get to the end of the day and feel like something was missing?"

As I was reading this post, I knew this post was speaking to me. I am a SAHM and I take care of the kids, but sometimes, blogging has taken away my concentration and being "engaged" to them. I hear them but I don't really listen to them. I play with them but sometimes, my mind is not with them. I am quite ashamed.

God has been dealing with me with this, and I am glad that He has brought it to my attention before it is too late. I would have to intentional turn off the computer so I can spend time with my kids. The reason I wanted to be SAHM was to be with them and be part of their world as they grow up. I can't risk losing it.

Now, as Michelle has written... I am going to "call my little ones over right now, get on my knees, look into their eyes, give them the gift of a mama who is engaged!"

Psalm 27:4

This is the prayer of King David. He only asks one thing from the Lord.
To be able to be with the Lord all the days of his life.
Do we seek and long for the Lord this way?
