Week End Musings

...first off, the weather was fabulous!

...last tree in our yard to change in color and drop its leaves...

...second...

...there was this huge indoor yard sale here...



...several 'wishing' bargains...
...i don't have a store or place in my home for these...

...twenty dollars...
...thirty-five dollars...
...the wicker chest was gone on my second round!

...and then there was this...

...a way to get there and take the goodies home...

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

...worship ponderings...

...our SS class discussion centered around contentment...
...huge, especially for women!
...but...
...we shared, confessed, were honest, and encouraged each other...
...conclusions...
- contentment is not natural
- where do i find contentment?
- is it wrong to indulge in a 'want?'
- can i be content even when life is upside down?
- have we become cozy and comfortable cohabitating with greed?

...finishing off with a quote from Charles Swindoll...

"The push to achieve and advance in life causes many of us to forego the roles we are best suited for. If we know the true path to contentment,
we are able to resist these pressures and experience freedom."

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


...blessedness!
