Yesterday I took the day off to (work on) a new dress and to knit (work on) a UFO (Un-Finished Object). The dress is a new number, kind of kooky but interesting. I am still knitting the sweater that I had to frog a few months ago. (Frog means to unravel work that you had already done) I try to keep busy, but it feels like everything is taking forever.
Yesterday we had to go to Kroger for garbage bags. It was the outing for the day! That’s all we bought. It was hardly worth the effort of all that mask wearing and hand sanitizing to go buy ONE thing.
I added another element to my daily devotional. The BIBLE. I started reading the bible. After the devotional pages, and prayers, I read one chapter of the Bible. Larry said, why don’t you just read the New Testament? I thought about it, and I guess, I want to read every word, Old and New Testament.
I miss going to church. I miss going to Sunday School and reading the lessons with that special group of people. Sermons for our church are on You Tube. Larry and I watch them. But I just cannot bring myself to go to ZOOM Sunday School. I do not ZOOM anything though. It is distracting and is only as good as the worst connected attendee.
Today’s Devotional read: “The balance of affirmation and discipline, freedom and restraint, encouragement and waring is different for every child and season and generation, yet the absolutes of God’s Word are necessary and trustworthy no matter how mercuric the time.”
~Gloria Gaither
How ironic that is today’s devotional. AND Timely. Please know that I think about you. You are in my prayers as we journey forward. No matter how crazy these days are…there is always one constant. Faith.
Love you beyond the moon and the stars.
