It was an icy morning so it was a great day to stay in and work on some projects and have some fun. Four wheel drive doesn’t work well on ice and the weather forecasters were asking for everyone to stay in. Some of the ice has melted now and people are back to driving again.
This week is Valentine’s Day and the BubblingwithEleganceandGrace.com team wanted to show how much we appreciate you stopping by, commenting and being a part of our lovely community. Drumroll!! We decided to have a JT’s Valentine’s Day Giveaway! The prize is a Dooney and Bourke Patterson Paige Sac and the matching Continental Clutch in Azure. The team picked a fresh color that will work now and will be ray of bright light when you walk by those fresh flowers in the spring.
Patterson Leather Paige Sac in Azure
Patterson Paige Sac
“The Patterson Collection puts a fresh spin on our classic pebbled leather with new styles and design details. Light tan vacchetta leather trim accents a rich array of colors from spring brights to classic neutrals.” Dooney and Bourke
The tan trim will patina over time due to the oils on your skin and exposure to sunlight. A dust bag is included with this bag.
Patterson Leather Continental Clutch The Patterson Leather Clutch (wallet) can store your cards, cash and receipts. It is such a classic style wallet. The back of the wallet has a zippered pocket for security. Timeless elegance for church, work, the mall, or going out for a bite to eat and go see a movie. I could see taking the wallet out of the bag and going to lunch carry it like a small clutch.

Hope you are having a wonderful day! Today marks day 17 of our 21 day fast that my hubby and I are partaking with our church. We are doing a Daniel Fast, which means we only eating fruits, vegetables, beans and nuts. No meat and no sugar. I must admit it, it’s been tough when you cannot eat the same things you are used to eating. Part of the fast is to develop a stronger relationship with God by studying the Bible. But many times knowing how to study the Word can be difficult if you do not have the right tools. Fasting is not a diet, and I reiterate fasting is not a diet; it’s working on developing a stronger spiritual connection with God.
With my partnership with LEV3L Digital and Lifeway, I had an opportunity to review a new study Bible edited by Dr. George Guthrie. Using the chronological format, Guthrie created commentary and study questions to allow the reader to get deeper into God’s word. The Bible is designed to be completed in one year and allows for one day each week for spiritual reflection.
In addition to providing me with a Bible, LEV3L Digital and Lifeway sponsored a giveawayso that one of our readers can have a Bible of their own. I am happy to announce that the winner of the giveaway is Audrey!!! Congratulations, Audrey!! You are a winner!
Audrey was selected by a random number generator of all the comments left on the giveaway’s post.
Audrey, we will be in touch with you about getting the Bible to you.
Congratulations, again!!!

This is day 6 of the fast that my hubby and I joined with our Church. We declare that 2019 will be the best year ever for a breakthrough in our lives and everyone who is reading these words at this moment. If you haven’t already, go to cotr.org/21days and download the journal and if you would like for us to be in agreement with you, please share.
The fast is not a weight loss program. The number one purpose is to strengthen our personal relationship with God. And one tool to incorporate is reading the bible and finding a plan for you. Our Pastor asked if we could go through the Chronological Bible with him this year like we did last year.
Oh, that men would praise (and confess to) the Lord for His goodness and loving-kindness and His wonderful works to the children of men!
For He satisfies the longing soul and fills the hungry soul with good. Psalm 107:8,9 Amplified
My hubby and I went through the Chronological Bible plan on the Youversion app, but this year we are going to go through the Christian Standard Day by Day Chronological Bible with Daily Readings guided by Dr. George Guthrie.
What’s cool?
“In this plan, the books, chapters, and verses of the Bible are thoughtfully arranged so readers can track the story of Scripture, day-by-day, from beginning to end, understanding the flow of events and how the grand narrative of Scripture applies to everyday life. Unlike other chronological Bibles, this arrangement is not date specific (e.g. “January 1″), so the reading plan can begin at any point in the calendar year.”
“Features Include: 52 weeks of readings (six readings per week) in chronological order, Scripture presented in three main acts (God’s Plan for All People; God’s Covenant People; God’s New Covenant People) and seventeen total scenes, an introduction for each act and scene to orient the reader to its importance in the grand story, single-column text with plenty of space for taking notes, concordance, smyth-sewn binding, presentation page, and full-color maps.”
I am the type of person that I like the electronic versions of books. However, I also like picking up a physical book and going through the pages.

And, I have to read through chapters more than once. One time isn’t enough for me because it may take me reading a scripture or a chapter several times to truly get what the words are saying to me in my life. Fasting is a time to reflect, listen, gain wisdom, and hear from God.
In collaboration with LEV3L Digital and LifeWay, BubblingWithElgeanceAndGrace.com is offering a wonderful giveaway. One blessed subscriber will receive their own copy of the Day by Day Chronological Christian Standard Bible, which has a retail value of $39.99.

December is such a lovely time of the year. It even snowed a couple of times this week in my Midwest neck of the woods.The temperature changes have been from highs of 66 to lows of 22 and it is still only fall. I keep hearing that it is only two weeks until Christmas from the media and I have to literally turn that volume out and enjoy because this season is not about being stressed out its about celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. Granted, Jesus was not born on December 25th, but that is the day we Christians celebrate Jesus’s birth. I have to remember that for me that Jesus is the reason for the season. And over the past two years my husband and I have started a tradition of celebrating Hanukkah. Check out this interesting article on Why Christians Should Celebrate Hanukkah, which was such an eyeopener for me.
Also, I wanted to jump up for joy about BubblingwithEleganceandGrace.com Christmas Holiday Giveaway that will run from December 9 to December 24 at 12pm. I want to thank everyone who has subscribed or commented on my YouTube channel and subscribed or commented on our blog. I have to say that having your support means the world to me and my team so we wanted to offer a special giveaway.
