A long weekend! Since my last post, I have graduated from Bethel College, diploma received, honor cords received in mail, summer done, Senior High church camp was a blast! Attended Annual Conference for first time in Muncie, Indiana, preached at my home church in July, and another church in South Bend in May. Accepted into MDiv program at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston, Illinois (G-ETS) and am commuting one day a week. I have a new part-time job at Working Force Outfitters, which I love. So much to be thankful for. Our friends Gary and Diana Scott visited with us a few weeks ago, we all had a tremendously good time, and life is busy! My daughter Amanda is signed up for Disciple Bible study, and this makes my heart swell. I am hoping and praying that she has a wonderful experience in her class!
In the midst of busy-ness.... I must take time out to put these words into this writing. The picture of the tree is from my friend Tammy, and I know she won't mind that I borrowed it for inspiration.
"Father, I adore you, and I lay my life before you....
oh...I love you...
Jesus, I adore you, and I lay my life before you....
oh...I love you...
Spirit, I adore you, and I lay my life before you....
oh...I love you..."
" I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice
To worship you, Oh my soul rejoice!
Take joy, my King, in what you hear
May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear"
God's grace, beauty and loving provision floods my soul, and I fall to my knees in thankfulness and humility.
And suddenly there are no words necessary....
