Bible Women Part A: Reading Notes

Bible Women pt. A includes Eve, Sarah, Hagar, Rebekah, Rachel, Leah, Potiphar's Wife, Jephthah's Daughter, Delilah, and Hannah.

Characteristics:
Eve:

Eve does not like to follow directions
Eve is easily influenced!
Eve is really not that great at listening
Eve's sin of eating the forbidden fruit was the first sin to be committed.

Sarah:

Sarah starts out as disbelieving and does not think she will bear a child.
Sarah is very old.
Sarah has never been able to have kids but her and Abraham have stayed faithful to each other.
Sarah ends up having a child and everyone celebrates.

Hagar:

Hagar was forced to conceive a child to Abraham, who was Sarah's husband.
Sarah hated Hagar when she conceived a child.
Hagar went to the wilderness.

Rebekah:

Rebekah was beautiful and a virgin.
Rebekah gave water to the man at the well.
Rebekah was a great hostess to the man at the well and ended up being sent with him.
Rebekah was loved by Isaac, and she also loved Isaac.

Jephthah's Daughter:

She was an only child.
She was obedient to her father.

I chose to focus on taking notes over the first four because they were the stories I was most familiar with, and then I took notes over Jephthah's Daughter because I did not know that story. Overall, I liked this note-taking style of finding characteristics of the different Bible Women, but I don't think it was my favorite style of taking notes. It has been hard to only focus on my favorite parts of the readings to take notes on instead of taking notes on the entire reading, just because my whole educational career I have been taught to summarize the entire story. Although it is hard, I really like the challenge and enjoy writing about the sections I like!

Introduction to Pip

Hi friends! Welcome to my blog :) My name is Piper, but most of my friends call me a slew of nicknames like Pipe, Pipey, Pipes, Pipeydoodle, Pip (hence Pip Pip Hurray)... you get the point! I am a student at the University of Oklahoma, and I am currently finishing up my last semester before I graduate (don't remind me, I'm getting emotional about it). I am from Tulsa, OK originally, and I would love to go back someday, but my future is pretty up in the air right now so I am not sure when that might be. I am studying Health and Exercise Science with an emphasis on Pre-Occupational Therapy, and the goal would be to start OT school in Summer 2020. I'm super passionate about people and forming relationships, which is what drew me to OT. I love the idea of working in a profession that allows me to make new friends, love others, and solve problems all at the same time. As well as my many nicknames, my friends call me an old lady at heart. I love to read (most recent book- Where

Week 4 Story- The Hungry Urshana

It had been seven days that all of the animals had been stowed away on the ship. They were hungry. They were tired. Their paws, claws, and hooves hurt. It seemed as though every moment another type of animal was complaining about something, and it took all Noah had to be patient and try to tend to their every need. He was exhausted as well; not only did he have to build this giant ark, load all of the living things on the entire earth into the ark, load and take care of this family, but he also had to feed every species on the boat. Imagine herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores all living in one boat. It was all Noah's responsibility to keep them from eating each other and from eating Noah and his family! For such a long time, as well. This was not just a week-long, leisurely vacation with his family. This was the entire responsibility of saving the world that God had put in Noah's hands! So yes, stressed and exhausted is an understatement. On the eighth day, Noah was walking
