weekend musings

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound

that saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved:

How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.

*************

this song kept ringing in my mind over the week end...

God's amazing grace!

so undeserved...

given so freely!

how much i need it...

...EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY!

*************

our week end was very quiet and restful...

hubs and s-i-l wayne did a quick trip to fl to buy a pickup truck for wayne. they left thur noon and were back early Sat morning...

hubs was lacking sleep...majorly!

we decided to simply stay at home and he had an early night...

the weather was still gray and rainy...

*************

sunday morning gave promise of a beautiful day...

...so refreshing after two gray, rainy days!

(i'm NOT complaining!)

our SS discussion was on Wisdom from Proverbs...

'...incline your ear to wisdom...apply your heart to understanding...'

sound advice!

equally sound teaching in the sermon on keeping Sunday as a 'day of rest...'

four things happen when we do...

1. we worship God

2. relaxes the body from the stresses of everyday living

3. refreshes the mind

4. restores the soul...

i hope you were as relaxed, refreshed and restored as i was...

*************

lunch was served at church, then we came home and napped...

spent the evening with wayne and julia...

*************

today is an absolutely beautiful day...

i will enjoy the sunshine!

*************

When we've been there ten thousand years,

Bright shinning as the sun;

We've no less days to sing God's praise 

 than when we've first begun!
