We
have officially crossed over into March.
That means, of course, that Chris has Spring fever. She really wants to get outside and work in
the flower beds – just get her hands dirty, I guess. They may have to incorporate that somehow
into her physical therapy routine. That
starts in earnest tomorrow. I guess my
next project (in conjunction with Nathan)
will be the trellis in the back yard to hold up the big vine with the blue
flowers. I can’t keep the names of those
things straight back there.
Church
went really well yesterday. Afterwards I
had a talk with a new lady who was trying to describe sensing the Holy Spirit’s
presence in the service and the apparently evident call of God on my life. Fascinating.
Then one of our long-time guys sought to verbalize his understanding of
the different aspects of the trinity that he experiences when he prays for
others (to God the Father), when he
sees someone come to salvation (the
awesome work of Jesus that makes that possible), and when he experiences
guidance in his day to day life (the work
of the Holy Spirit). Very
insightful. And then there was the guy
who approached Chris and asked, “What’s happening here? Why are all these people coming - even the
ones from the neighborhood?” Chris
replied, “Maybe it’s a God thing.” Indeed.
We
had Cailyn with us for the day (and she
did a great job singing with the praise team, by the way), so after a lunch
with some Seasiders at a local barbecue place, we dropped her off at softball
practice. We raced home to change
clothes and back to the fields. Last night
she joined us for a breakfast at supper of bacon and eggs before her Mom
arrived to pick her up. Not a bad
day. Not bad at all …
Matthew
5:5 says, “Blessed are the meek, for they
will inherit the earth.”
Father,
thank you for curious worshippers and spiritual discoveries. Amen.
