About the movie Titanic

84 years later, a 100 year-old woman named Rose DeWitt Bukater tells the story to her granddaughter Lizzy Calvert, Brock Lovett, Lewis Bodine, Bobby Buell and Anatoly Mikailavich on the Keldysh about her life set in April 10th 1912, on a ship called Titanic when young Rose boards the departing ship with the upper-class passengers and her mother, Ruth DeWitt Bukater, and her fiancĂ©, Caledon Hockley. Meanwhile, a drifter and artist named Jack Dawson and his best friend Fabrizio De Rossi win third-class tickets to the ship in a game. And she explains the whole story from departure until the death of Titanic on its first and last voyage April 15th, 1912 at 2:20 in the morning.     Useful Links:     https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/titanic   https://happygreenbeans.com/similar/1997/736704634814464.html   Short Review :    Although the Titanic sank, the love between Jack and Rose is eternal.

How I Read the Bible

There are a ton of ways to read the Bible, and over the years, I've tried almost all of them. A few years ago, I tried a new method - buying a planner to track my Bible reading plan. The planner isn't used to keep track of appointments or blog ideas...nothing extra. It is solely devoted to tracking what I read each day and the thoughts, emotions and insights God speaks into my heart.

This year I am doing this chronological reading plan. Well, kind of! Last year I ended in the Old Testament, and seeing as how this plan starts in the Old Testament, I decided to skip to the New Testament portion. Before January 1st, I took about 45 minutes to copy each day's passage (what chapters/verses, not the entire passage) from yearly plan into the planner. This saves me time and effort each day, and cuts down the excuses I have for NOT reading the Bible.

Why I love this method: I love how easy it is to track how consistent my time with God is. But more importantly, I love how easy it is to track how sweet my time with God is. Jotting down how God spoke to me in a passage, how I'm challenged by it or how I have cried over it allows my forgetful heart to see God's goodness over the course of a year.

I'd LOVE to hear how you read the Bible!


After researching what felt like a zillion planners, I settled on a Sugar Paper planner from Target. I picked up a second Sugar Paper planner for my blog ideas, schedule and goals. (Sold only through Target, and sadly, sold out online. Check your local Target to see if they have any left.) These are some of the most inspirational planners I've ever used (love the colors, style, size, font, etc). Also, my coaster is from Eva Marie Typography, my pencil is from The Common Grade and my table runner is from this post.
