if you’re lucky☘️

On March 17, countless people in many countries, including Japan and Russia, gather together to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. From eating corned beef and cabbage to wearing green, parading around, and drinking green beer, people leap into the spirit of this beloved Saint’s special day.

Not wanting to be left out….so did we!!

Ireland has a large Catholic base, and Irish Catholics observe March 17, St. Patrick’s Day, as a holy day of obligation. And then they may go and celebrate with mugs of Irish ale or Irish comfort food.

the struggle

For all of January, Word Press is running once again a month-long blogging challenge and I have been invited to join them!

(Along with every other WP member! Giggles.)

I will be given a new daily writing prompt to inspire me to publish a post on my blog. There is no right or wrong way to respond to the prompts. Members who register take this opportunity to exercise their creativity and have fun! We can choose to respond with a story, a drawing, a poem, a photo, a comic strip, a recipe, or even a playlist.

Anything goes!

I am excited for this challenge because by participating in Bloganuary, I will join bloggers around the world in the shared goal of creating and/or solidifying a strong blogging habit. Also, with the Bloganuary community site, I’ll connect with and get to know others working toward similar goals. I just may even make some new blogging friends!!

This all excites me!

While I may not use the prompt every day – I do hope to use this challenge to strengthen my blogging habit, yet again. However, if I do use the prompt for the day I will be certain to attach the badge to clue you in!

Inspired by January 2nd’s prompt:

Are you brave?

I am a woman.

I am a wife.

I am a mother.

I am a grandmother.

I am His.

Those are definites.

It’s all the in-between, which I often struggle (to answer.)

Am I brave?

When I rest in Him…I am.

‘Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will also help you, I will also uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

Isaiah 41:10

hugs n’ blessings to all those who trust in the great I AM – and become braver than they ever imagined!
