Growing in Grace October 2008

Posted By Jacque on October 1, 2008

I think time has officially gained wings. Either that or we are so blessed and busy that the days fly by! Either way, I cannot believe another year is almost coming to an end. I can always tell when the year is winding down, because it is always as the leaves are changing, Mom is wanting to visit (she loves Indiana leaves in the Fall), and Amanda is asking what we should do for her birthday. Well, the leaves are changing, Mom has decided to move to IN, and Amanda will be 19 in 3 weeks. Sigh… another month has come and gone.

2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

Here we are in October 2008. I can hardly believe it. We have published Growing in Grace Magazine every month since February 2008. That first issue, I think we put it together in about a week and a half! A new venture, new friends and fun learning! And it has not stopped yet!

Ecclesiastes 3:11 KJV
“He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.”

I am especially excited about the October Issue, because my oldest and most excellent daughter, Amanda, is our Grace Girl this month. She has an interview and is on the cover. I don’t think I will ever be able to express how proud I am to be the Momma to any of our wonderful children!!

John 13:15 KJV
“For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.”

Amanda and Jocelyn each worked hard to get the PDFs published for August and September, so be sure to take a look and see what a great job they each did!! They are both quite talented in layout and design, and we are very blessed to have them on staff here at GGM!

The theme for this month is Longsuffering. SisterLisa shares her family’s testimony in Fact of the Matter: It Doesn’t Matter by Sisterlisa.

    Hello Mrs. Dixon,

    I was so happy to hear about your mother moving up here! That will be so good for your family.

    I hope Wilbur is doing well. I can’t believe it’s already October! And this weather feels perfect for fall! Ahh, time flies so fast.

    Thanks for having us all over a while back. Those Littles are just tooo cute!

    Blessings,

    Ahhh Breezy… It has been so good for her to be here.
    God is good and faithful to us when we seek him and follow his commands. May he bless you and you family. May he open your eyes to those who would deceive you in these last days.

    The LORD bless you all truly.

    Mrs. Dixon

    [Sorry. Didn't know you would get that into your Inbox. It was meant as a prayer from me on my blog. I saw the date and couldn't believe it, so I commented, not intending it to be mailed to you.]

Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one!
and you are to love YHVH your Elohim with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your understanding, and with all your strength.' 6 These words, which I am ordering you today, are to be on your heart; 7 and you are to teach them carefully to your children. You are to talk about them when you sit at home, when you are traveling on the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
{Deuteronomy 6:4-9, Mark 12:28-30}

Welcome

Welcome to my online home, Walking Therein. I am a 40-something wife and Momma, trying to walk therein, squeezing in moments of Scripture reading, praise and worship and just quiet between the breastfeeding, child training, cooking, cleaning, child training, laundry, home school, child training, online ministries, and spending individual moments with hubby, adult children, Middles, Littles, and the infant.
Tis the life the Father gave me, and I am blessed to walk in it.
Did I mention the child training?

"Who am I? Nobody special; just a flawed wife and mom, daughter, sister, and friend chosen by YHVH to follow and tell about him."

I am a Believer in the one true God and the Messiah, his Son, whose name is Yehoshua. We keep his commandments because that is what his people do.
"...God's people, those who observe his commands and exercise Yehoshua's faithfulness."
Revelation 12, 14, 22

Jacque Mrs. Jacque Dixon and her husband, Matt are busy preparing and training their nine children up in YHVH's narrow way. We are currently living and home schooling in Costa Rica, sharing our love of Torah online. Walking Therein is where Jacque writes encouraging articles of faith, home schooling and the daily adventures of the Dixon family, with a mix of news and reviews also thrown in from time to time.
