Monday Morning..Labor Day 2018

Well Sunday was an awesome day of worship that started right here at the cabin as we listened to our home church in Florida live from BridgePoint and then again at Cornerstone where we listened to two missionary's to China, Greece and now to Jordan. What stories they shared as they are in their 60's when GOD decided to send them abroad. They are a husband and wife team who are from this area and at one time pastored a local church in this area. We support them both as they raise funds to do their work for helping folks come to know Christ which can be very dicy with those of the Muslim back ground; but they shared stories of several who are converting to the christian faith.

I started the day much the usual with my 6 'ish roll out to a cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and ginger while I posted this ramble and the spent some quiet moments in thanksgiving for my many blessings and then lifting up several by name for healing and comfort. While getting ready to leave around 9:30 for Sparta we listened to our 8 am service from BridgePoint live which was a great message as well and we just love the contemporary praise music.

After church we visited a new eatery in town as we ate a lone for a change as our usual group was out doing their own thing. The food was O.K. and I would go back but we are starting to get so many places to eat after church its hard to decide which one is best. Afterwards we stopped at a couple groceries for items for today's gathering at our place for about 14 folks for a Labor Day picnic around 5'ish. Hopefully it won't be like yesterday afternoon when we got a "gully washer" storm with lightning and thunder, yikes what a storm. We didn't get in a hike today as we had planned on one in the afternoon due to the storm threat which last for hours. So we settled on the couch watching some US Open.

Since we had a big meal for lunch we decided to just have pop corn for our supper while we watched the Dr. Pol show on the tube. I did get in some reading time in the afternoon and and again after my shower before lights out at 10'ish for me, LATER
