Daily Life – June 16, 2008

Here’s a glimpse of my life today:

My Bible Verse…

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
(1Pe 1:3-5 ESV)

I am thinking…

about our church family and the struggles we have lived through these past couple of years. What can we do? Can this body get back on track?

From the kitchen…

orange chicken and rice for dinner tonight

I am wearing…

teal t-shirt & shorts

I am reading…

Raising Godly Tomatoes

I am hoping…

that the bank accepts our new offer on a 3.3 acre property we are hoping to buy this week

Around the house…

it is quiet time, only the sound of the ceiling fan turning above me, the a/c turning on (its supposed to be 112 today) and my daughter’s audio book playing in the other room.

My Prayer…

That I can learn to have a joyful spirit

I am thankful for…

my father, my husband, our children, my in-laws, air conditioning!, encouraging older women in my life: Karen, Betty, & Mary
