Worship and Whatnot: Kite Flying
http://worshipandwhatnot.blogspot.com/2010/06/kite-flying.html
Monday, June 21, 2010. Hello, blogger friends. My name is Amanda Carter. Just thought we ought to reintroduce ourselves. I've been on vacation and school has been out for BOTH of the girls, so time has become a little more scarce while albeit fun these past few weeks. Ok, I'm done making excuses about why I haven't blogged in so long. Haven't you seen a kite before? Then I realized, probably, like me, it had been a long time. We're so techy these days and techy living has created a culture of "down l...

Worship and Whatnot: It's Been a While...Seriously, since 2010
http://worshipandwhatnot.blogspot.com/2014/03/its-been-whileseriously-since-2010.html
Tuesday, March 4, 2014. It's Been a While.Seriously, since 2010. Well, I decided a four year hiatus from blogging needed to end. Seriously, almost four years! After my sister died, this blog gave me a place to process a lot of the day-to-day things I experienced as I walked through that season. Now, I plan to blog to grow. So.I'm not sure what we'll see appear on these pages in the upcoming months, but I'm looking forward to growing along with whoever wants to read this thing. Posted by Amanda Carter.

Worship and Whatnot: Every Day Birthday
http://worshipandwhatnot.blogspot.com/2010/06/every-day-birthday.html
Saturday, June 5, 2010. Today is my birthday. I'm 31. I am no longer 30, I am now IN my thirties. Yes, it's different. Still laughing at me? Well, okay, but I'm just saying - I'm in my thirties. I am now fully separated from my twenties. I've decided that I am not going to hide my age - ever. I always laugh when people who look 45 say they're 29 (psst.nobody believes you anyway - just fess up! So, you heard it here.I just committed to always saying my age - yikes! Think about it. If his attitude was ...

Worship and Whatnot: 27 June 2010

Friday, July 2, 2010. Singing in the Car. I pulled up behind a woman on Nicholasville Road the other day and noticed her head bobbing steadily. Then, her shoulders started moving and finally, her hands hit the air. Whatever she had floating on the air waves in her car had really "moved" her! I smiled - big. The first thought through my head was, "You go girl. Get after it! See James 1:2). James sounds nuts! Freedom looks WAY different than just doing what you want. Freedom is more like the play place...

Friday, May 7, 2010. My mom and I were sitting in the car today while riding around town. I got to drive my Dad's SUV, which always makes me happy, and my mom sat shotgun. I've been amazed through grieving my sister how often we sit and hurt together. Today we spoke few words and shared moments of tears and just silent hurt. What else is there to say? While we individually have our own unique losses and hurts to grieve, we are both hurting and grieving the same person. We have parallel pain. Healing is i...

Worship and Whatnot: 25 July 2010
http://worshipandwhatnot.blogspot.com/2010_07_25_archive.html
Monday, July 26, 2010. I remember thinking many years ago - how can people worship while they're jumping up and down, flailing their arms and shouting? Then I pictured a UK basketball game and.oh, did I say that out loud? Anyway, I used to think those actions might not be genuine. Seriously, I thought that! I grew up in a church where we did not even clap - not even when someone finished singing. It's awkward. Trust me, I experienced that, too! I think day to day we need to expect to experience Him. ...

Wednesday, May 12, 2010. As a child, thunderstorms sent a rush of panic into me. Growing up in muggy Louisiana, thunderstorms are basically a post 3pm, daily event in the warmest months. Needless to say, mucho thunderstorms led to mucho panic. The threat of tornados served as the root of my fear. All those emergency drills at school really got to me I guess! 26 How great is God—beyond our understanding! The number of his years is past finding out. 29 Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds,.
