As you see below, last year I wrote about this wonderful time of year and about Thanksgiving. This year is one I'm especially thankful for as it was a year that there were a lot of changes for the better that, for me, outweigh the changes that were disheartening. This past year has brought me closer to God than all my years as a Believer.
I'm looking outside my window right now and it's sunny and clear and even though most of the beautiful leaves have fallen, it's a reminder of the wonderful crisp, white snow that's to come. There's a "magic," a mystique, that fills the air this time of year and it's an uplifting feeling.
I know that a lot of people get depressed this time of year for many different reasons, but I guess since God blessed me with the most wonderful memories for this time of year that I'm not saddened when the snow and dark dreary days set in.

The Beginning of My Journey
I've been a Christian for many years now. But through the years I have backslid-den quite a lot. This past year though God has really been speaking to me, waking me up. And my husband accepting Jesus as his Savior has shown me that though I backslid, God still answered my prayers.
Now my husband and I are on the same page and are now walking together holding hands instead of going opposite directions with a rope connecting us so that we're having a tug-of-war.
My Titus 2 journey started a few months ago when God led me to a blog of a woman named Candy. Sadly, she is no longer blogging, though I understand why she stopped. I never got to tell her how God used her to get me back on track. God truly spoke to me through her and gave me a lot of great advice, instruction, tips and encouragement.
I recently read A Woman After God's Own Heart by Elizabeth George. It's a wonderful book and I'm thankful that God led me to read it. It expanded on what Candy wrote in her blog. I've been putting all the things I've learned into practice and my husband says he's seen a difference.
I'm still learning and listening to God's teaching and I pray that every day I'll be one day closer to being a woman after God's own Heart.
