Wednesday Hodge Podge

Hosted by Joyce!

1. Tell us about one small blessing you have counted in the past week? 

I was  praising the Lord this morning in prayer meeting  that  one by one  my  medical tests came back negative.. my chest expat,  the endoscopy, and finally the  biopsies taken  of my throat.  Again, thank you, Lord!

2. Bastille Day is celebrated on July 14th...have you ever been to France? Any desire to visit there, and if so what would site or city would you most want to see? (pretend for a minute international travel isn't an issue) 

I think France would be a lovely place to visit.  I hear  that Paris is  pretty filthy, so  I'm not into that so much,  but  the Riviera area and southern France would be marvelous!

3. A food associated with France that you love? 

I believe  that French desserts  really tantalize me.  just surprise me, please!

4. Something you recently purchased where a coupon was involved? Do you regularly shop with coupons? 

  I placed an order online which had a promo code.. I believe it was Cold Water Creek.. the outfit I ordered to wear to a funeral this weekend.

5. You have to give something away this week...what will it be? 

I have bags and boxes of really nice books I have purged  just sitting in the sunroom.  Add to that  a bag of clothes, and a bag of socks.  I still need to purge the linen closet. I am sure I have some table cloths and linens to add to  this  load  that we will take to  donate this week!

6. Insert your own random thought here. This morning at prayer/Bible Study we finished a really  amazing study on the book of Judges  which demonstrated just how  far  the US has fallen, much like Israel,  during the time of the Judges,  when the people did what they thought was right in their own eyes.. Whether we have good government or not, we still have  moral and righteous  tenets  for living spelled out in the Word of God.  He is  our Judge and  we should be living according to HIs precepts. When people begin to do what they see fit in their own eyes,  they usually end up getting what they deserve,  the  bad fruit of their decision and actions.  People of God need to press in  for  God's Truth and live more righteously so we might see a turn around for our nation!  Decide today to Seek God's Will in all things we  do!
