Psalm 112 - We serve the Lord because he has given and done so much for us. All you are and all you have is from him. He just asks that in appreciation you give something back. Buy some groceries for your neighbor that is having a hard time, talk to the elderly lady that needs some company, pray for a friend in need, send a check to help someone else that is doing good works. Praise the Lord.
On this day:
2004 - A couple things on this day. My friend Waynette that I met in confirmation class when we were 12 and have been friends ever since, began attending the church I go to. She practically runs the place now. Its nice to share faith with best friends. The other thing that happened is Kris, Marty's sister came over and helped us move Nicole back to Albion College for her second year. Marty had passed away in the spring from a brain aneurism and Krissy came over to fill in. Good friends.
1996 - U.S. President Clinton signed legislation that ended guaranteed cash payments to the poor and demanded work from recipients. Did this work? anybody know?
Parenting - My daughter went to a seminar this weekend for people to learn more about racial equality. Good timing on this and who better then the church to be working at this?
Book Club - Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon. Clair and Jamie do not believe in owning slaves. The aunt, Jocasta, is hinting that she wants Jamie to take over the plantation that is run by her slaves. In those days, you could not set slaves free, it was against the law. Can't wait to find out what Jamie does.
Cairo Egypt - So much to see and learn here, too bad the area has sunk to such a mess.
Does that say "Lays" in Arabic? looks like the same junk food we have!
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable!
