QUOTE OF THE WEEK

 

Compare yourself with those who on the Lord’s Day hear nothing except the dismal sound of the world. What a privilege it is for you to hear the proclamation of the gospel!

August Status Report

Disliking the direction in which our nation is heading.
Knowing that God is sovereign.
Sitting on the couch for a change.
Watching Glenn Beck, Thursday's episode.  (GB:  America are you going to bury your head in the sand or draw a line in the sand?)
Fielding questions in our family discussion about who is going to win the Next Food Network Star.  Tom?  Aarti?  Tom? (OK, that was stretch, but I had to think of something.)
Digesting classic macaroni salad.
Drinking a glass of Clos De Bois Savingnon Blanc.
Reading Les Mis, Bartelby the Scrivener.
Thinking eagerly about tomorrow's study in Hebrews 11:13-16
Celebrating 'A believer at death is freed from sin; he is not taken away in, but from his sins; he shall never have a vain, proud thought more; he shall never grieve the Spirit of God any more. . .'
Thanking God for Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

Lisa from A Complete Thought kicked it off this month. . .

I'm with you on the first three and the last two!! :) I still don't have cable - it's a point of stubbornness on my part! - but I try to keep up with at least the political side. No clue about the Next Food Network competition, though!! :) Also, re-reading Harry Potter, since I've not been in the mood for anything much else.

And, giving thanks today for the warmth, the sunshine, and the summer - hot and humid though it is - because I know that, come about mid-December/January, I'm going to miss some of this!!

Watching the news drives me crazy but increases my thankfulness that it is God who is sovereign over the earth.

I'm pulling for Aarti.

And Amen! on the last two.
