We’re here! Tuesdayyyyy.
Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west. I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’ Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth. Isaiah 43:5-6
I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand. Charles M. Schulz

The less routine the more life. Amos Bronson Alcott
“If you do not listen, and if you do not set your heart to honor my name,” says the LORD Almighty, “I will send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings. Yes, I have already cursed them, because you have not set your heart to honor me.” Malachi 2:2

The start of another week. Today marks a new chapter of my life as I have given up being an usher. I told you why I did that earlier so I won’t bother with all the details. Are ya ready for another day of good stuff? Huh, are ya? Well, let’s get to it!
I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge — that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:16-19

Saturday. VBS at my church ended on Friday and we had a good time. If it seems like my posts this week have been rushed, it’s because they are. I spent my week preparing the lessons and then of course teaching. Next week, things will return to normal. VBS always makes me forget that my birthday is just a little over a week away. So let’s get this day out of the way, shall we? Well, not out of the way but let’s get to the post.
To make us love our country, our country ought to be lovely. Edmund Burke
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 1 John 4:9
