Sunday ramblings


This morning I am overwhelmed by the great love that Jesus has for me. This morning I have been studying the Last Supper. Like Siesta Beth, I so hope that He tells the Passover story when we gather together in Glory! Can you imagine us all sitting at His feet and Him telling us the great stories of the Bible—much like we have done with our children? The story is always better coming from the One who experienced it.

Today will be yet another busy Sunday—we don’t have adult SS class today because of a health fair going on at church. I so look forward to worship service—it is a highlight of my week to gather with fellow believers and sing of His great love and listen to His Word proclaimed. We will come home and have lunch and hopefully a nap before we have FPU at 5 p.m.

Tomorrow is President’s Day, so that means a day off work—yay! I have a mammogram scheduled for 9 a.m. in the morning. It is a little overdue! I haven’t had one since my breast reduction surgery 10/25/06. I am a little apprehensive because I don’t know how it is to have a mammogram with small breasts! Mama is coming down to ride with me. I thought it would give us a chance to spend some time together.

I spent yesterday cleaning up the house—I just love a clean houseJ Then I messed up the sunroom with all my scrapbook stuff! LA has kind of taken over my sewing room with her paint stuff. This is a canvas that she painted for a baby shower gift for a lady at church--isn't it cute?



That room needs to be about triple it’s size—of course Eddie would say that I don’t use it enough now. I am just so appreciative that he built it for me. It is a perfect little room for crafting—but for only one person at a time. It gets a little claustrophobic when both of us are in there trying to work on stuff! When I am working on scrapbook pages, I kind of get stressed before I actually put a page together—it’s like once it’s down, it’s down. I know that it’s supposed to be a creative outlet—but my perfectionism tends to creep in and I want each page to be perfect. I am getting better and not analyzing each page so much. My pages lean toward a very conservative layout—just mats, borders, journals—no buttons, bows, bells or whistles for me. Gosh, I would never complete a page if I started having to worry about all that!!

I have been listening to Chris Tomlin this morning—he is so gifted! I especially like the song, “Glory in the Highest”. It really speaks to me. The whole CD, “See the Morning”, is great! The DVD that came with it was awesome—Louie Giglio speaks a profound message! I wish everyone could hear it.

Hoping to have a day filled with love and laughter—and worshiping the One from whom all things are given.
