goes by. Time is slipping away too quickly. Someone mentioned the other day that we only have 37 teaching days left... Usually i'm the one counting down from 50 days but I haven't even thought about it this year. There just seems to be so much to do and with the crazy weather we've had lately, it doesn't really feel like it should be May. However... reality is, that it is!!! We had a gorgeous day here today and the kids had a blast spending the day outside. You know it's nice, when even I spent the day outside! Glen built a new set of stairs off of our deck today. They are much wider and not as steep (3 steps rather than 2) and in a different location which really opens up the deck. Now the kids are bathed and ready for bed.
Our neighbours had questioned us back in the Fall about mtgs. They'd noticed Wed. night here and really seemed to be searching. She'd questioned Glen on the verses that say that we should be giving our all and she thought that she should be selling all and going forth... well... today she tells me that her and her lil family (husband and 2 small kids) are going to Uganda on a mission for 4 years and they hope to stay longer. I felt really sad and wished they'd come to a mtg back in the Fall. Guess we can just pray that they'll be really disappointed and seek what is True.
Tomorrow will prove whether my friend from work is honest too. With a few excuses the past weeks, she told me that she'd come to gospel mtg tomorrow night for sure... so we'll wait and see. I guess one can only pray. Appreciated Coleen's thoughts on prayer last week... we need to have faith to pray so that we can be faithful in prayer.
With nice weather and not wanting to waste a moment of it, we're having company for an early supper tomorrow night before mtg. Can't wait!!! I owe so many people and need to get better at having people who can't or won't return the privilege. I'm very quilty with that.
We were at a wedding last night... love is so precious and so beautiful. I appreciated what Joni said...if you put your hands together and bend your 3rd fingers together so they're touching like a heart... you can move your thumbs... like parents; the bond can be separated... you can move your index fingers... like careers; can be changed and you can move your pinkies... like siblings; separation occurs with marriage etc. But you can't move your 4th fingers... that's why the ring goes on that finger... a solid union... a bond that can't be broken... Always sobering to be reminded of vows we've taken and to remember that it was heard before God.
Good night.
