TODAY IS: 16 March 2025
AROUND ME: The crocuses and Lenten Rose are blooming and many of the other spring perennials are poking through the ground. The birds are chirping away! The geese honk as they fly over.
I AM PONDERING: The value of risk taking, as I go through a Bible study guide on John Piper's book, Don't Waste Your Life.
AMONG MY FAVORITE THINGS: Sunshine and warmer temperatures!
BOOKS I AM CURRENTLY ENJOYING: Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman
I AM THANKFUL FOR: Jesus~ my Redeemer King for His willingness to give Himself to pay the debt for my sins that I could never have paid myself.
NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN: that life is all too short and that if I love someone, whether it be family or friend, I need to make sure I let them know that. A dear cousin of mine just passed away recently. He suffered many health issues, and we would always say that we need to get together, but I didn't put forth the effort. Speaking with his widow last Friday was so heartbreaking. They both know the Lord, so I know my cousin is in a much better place and no longer suffering and those of us he left behind who know the Lord grieve, but not like those who have no Hope.
FROM THE KITCHEN:
To celebrate Pi Day last Friday,
and not wanting to have an entire pie around,
but still wanting to do something special for Strongheart,
I made him some Blueberry Hand Pies instead.
SOMETHING I REALLY ENJOY:
The sweetness of a boy and his dog.
QUOTE FOR THE WEEK:
And if you are so inclined to pray,
please remember John MacArthur in prayer
as he seems to be in his last days before he goes to be with the Lord.
SCRIPTURE FOR THE WEEK:
TO DO LIST FOR TODAY: Laundry
"So teach us to number our days,
that we may present to You a heart of wisdom."
Psalm 90:1
