QUOTE OF THE WEEK

[t]he Spirit of God shows to us hidden things, the knowledge of which cannot reach our senses: Promised to us is eternal life, but it is promised to the dead; we are assured of a happy resurrection, but we are as yet involved in corruption; we are pronounced just, as yet sin dwells in us; we hear that we are happy, but we are as yet in the midst of many miseries; an abundance of all good things is promised to us, but still we often hunger and thirst; God proclaims that he will come quickly, but he seems deaf when we cry to him. What would become of us were we not supported by hope, and did not our minds emerge out of the midst of darkness above the world through the light of God’s word and of his Spirit? Faith, then, is rightly said to be the subsistence or substance of things which are as yet the objects of hope and the evidence of things not seen.John Calvin, Calvin's Commentaries, Hebrews 11

Giving Thanks in November

DateSunday, November 15, 2009 at 01:51PM

I didn't sleep well last night so I'm really looking forward to my Sunday afternoon nap this week!  I'm thankful that God, in His wisdom, had given us a day of worship and a day of rest.

Hebrews 4:9  So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, 10 for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.

I hope your nap was restful this afternoon. I managed to get one in before the recital. You were missed there!

I enjoy a nap on Sunday afternoon too from time to time.
