Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen

Journal

More work in preparing my journal.  I used some of the 6x6" scrapbook paper I have to make some pockets to store "stuff" in that I collect on our vacation.  These will take up almost an entire page in size.  The one on top is to show you the "tabs" on the back that I will put double-sided adhesive on to stick it to the journal page.  That way the adhesive won't "trap" any of the items I put in the pocket.

This bag is not going to be big enough to hold everything I intend to take with me.  So, I think I'm going to make a bigger one.

Here's some journaling items I found at Walmart.  The papers were cheap.  The pens and markers, not so much!

This is the smaller size of the cards I bought today.  The tape along the left hand side is called Washi tape.  I can already hear some of you saying, "What in the world is Washi tape?"  :D  So, here is a link where you can go to find out the answer:  http://www.sheknows.com/living/articles/951617/what-is-washi-tape

Here's the larger card that I got today.  Haven't decided how I'm going to attach these yet since they are so big.  The backs of these cards are decorated also.

OK, that's it for today!  Nite!
