I'm thankful for:
~ Digging in the dirt. I finally cleaned out the front flower bed and planted some impatiens and petunias. I hope to sow and grow some sunflowers if the squirrels don't eat the seeds.
~ Thoughtful discussions about The Hunger Games with my daughter.
~ Books arriving on the doorstep.
~ Updates from Uganda. Our pastor is teaching at The Gaba Bible Institute in Kampala. Also one of our deacons is there assisting in a construction project.
~ The opportunity to share a meal with two of the elder candidates and their wives. I'm thankful for the chance to get to know them a bit more and learn their stories. This is an exciting and maybe a bit scary time for the church as we consider this major polity change. I believe elder government is biblical and pray that our church will respond and decide biblically rather than based on experience or preference.
~ The rock solid foundation of the Word of God.
Pretty flower!
ReplyDeletePersis,
ReplyDeleteA picture of your flower bed would be nice. :) Every time I've planted in our lovely boxes out front, the winds kick up and kill the flowers.
What an amazing opportunity for your pastor, and may God grant your church body much wisdom as they decide about elder government. Love and hugs!
Praying for wisdom for your church body! I'm starting some seeds indoors to keep the squirrels from eating them. Maybe you can try that with the sunflower seeds. Good luck, I mean providence, lol!
ReplyDeleteThe solid rock foundation of the Word of God....Amen! What a great thing to give thanks for, Persis!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list :) May God grant your church wisdom as they decide on the new eldership government.
