830. I am so thankful to live in a nation where open Bible study classes are available to anyone who really wants to dig deeper into God's Word.This season I am doing an in depth study on Isaiah, and Hebrews, and Philippians... Thankfully, the Isaiah class is the only one that requires weekly homework.
831. Our precious oldest granddaughter celebrated her 5th birthday yesterday in her Pre-K class her little sister got to come in and celebrate with them..
What a joy these two are to us!!
832. My sweetheart has been amazing to me this week... I had been wanting to go the Joanne's Fabrics to get some scrap booking paper for a special project for the girls, but it has been so rainy and horrid out that he drove me to Bible Study class then he drove me to Joanne's and just sat in the car and let me browse to my heart's content... I didn't take advantage of his kindness so he also drove me to the next town to Supershoes and I was able to finally find 2 pairs of nice leather winter shoes (dressy and casual) that actually felt good on my pitiable feet.. I have a hammer toe from a ruptured plantar plate... years ago... it was a great day!!!!
833. I love it when friends and family just call and say they would like to drop in... Tuesday Marnee, Hub's cousin who is a very special lady, dropped by..we had such a sweet visit. I grew up in a time when dropping in was what we did... but we seem to have lost that friendly tradition.. It was a much more genteel time I think and Tuesday was much sweeter because of the love connection we shared.
834. This weekend our church is hosting a Women's Workshop on the book of Philippians...I have been forward to this for so long... and I am ecstatic that we have 100 participants from our church. I definitely need to reread through the book a few times today.
She loves it because it is mid-century modern.. her favorite style. Thank goodness for options to purchase vintage wares!
836. Let me just say that I am so blessed by our children... our daughter, Amanda, and her family photo taken at their church following service last Easter.
837. I would be remiss if I didn't thank the good Lord for my Hubs... I have horrible allergies that have gone rampant during this rainy weather.. and I cannot stand to vacuum anytime... stirring up the dust doesn't sit with me.. while I am typing he is vacuuming.. God bless him!!
838. Our last sunny day we were at the lake and the sunset was glorious..
839. Last night at church, a dear church member,, a retired opthamologist, who is suffering from a very debilitating neurological disease opened our study on Hebrews with a very inclusive accounting of who Jesus is... This man is so precious... pouring out his life to serve and demonstrating his love for the Lord in powerful ways as he is able... he becomes pretty emotional at times because of his deep, deep love for Christ. It was a beautiful evening, but there had to be some heart felt weeping going on, too.. What an example of Christ to us. Love poured out on us as the rain peppered down outside!
840. I am blessed to be able to enjoy the most amazing music on Pandora like the one one playing now
