I also started picking up newspapers in Spanish and trying to read them, it also helped build familiarity with words and syntax. Anyway, God bless your study and keep faithful in the small things. They bring greater rewards.Steve Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04319784922747041297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18568699.post-15076272797269377292010-02-20T11:13:03.580-05:002010-02-20T11:13:03.580-05:00Glad you did well on your test!

I know that I have a to do list as long as ever, but I think I choose to do the stuff that are easier. At least they get crossed off my list! For some reason, laundry is still on my list!!!Pres.

Creating an orderly environment in our homes makes everything seem so much easier and more pleasant, and yet I find it so difficult to be disciplined in that area of my life.<br /><br />Anna, thank you so much for sharing the Prayer of St. Ephraim in French. Beautiful--and it makes me think about the words in a new way.Sarah in Indianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263808059871173238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18568699.post-73626791753630016492010-02-19T11:14:09.911-05:002010-02-19T11:14:09.911-05:00Take delight in your days.

Here's something I'm saying a lot this Lent:<br /><br />O Seigneur et maître de ma vie,<br />Ne me donne pas l’esprit de paresse,<br />Ni de faiblesse, <br />Ni l’envie du pouvoir,<br />Ou de parler pour ne rien dire.<br /><br />Mais au contraire donne à ton serviteur<br />L’esprit de chasteté,<br />De docilité, <br />Patience et charité<br /><br />O mon Seigneur et mon Roi,<br />Accorde moi de voir mes propres péchés,<br />Et de ne pas juger mon frère,<br />Car Toi, tu es béni pour toute l’éternité, Amen.<br /><br />Que Dieu nous pardonne, et qu'il nous accorde un bon Carême!Peacocks and Sunflowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00915384347467690635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18568699.post-3071705845152082212010-02-19T03:59:38.504-05:002010-02-19T03:59:38.504-05:00I agree; it is better to do a few things really we...I agree; it is better to do a few things really well than a myriad of things badly.......<br /><br />I need to take my own advice :-)Elizabeth @ The Garden Windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00274788007550318693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18568699.post-37782235289928536262010-02-19T00:26:26.935-05:002010-02-19T00:26:26.935-05:00After reading your post, I am going to leave the c...After reading your post, I am going to leave the computer and go wash my dishes.
