November 26, 2017 Sunday #Kingofkings#churchfamily#poetCowper#Arviat!

Get Faith
Psalm 50:23  "But true praise is a worthy sacrifice; this really honors me.  Those who walk my paths will receive salvation from the Lord."  Today is King of King day at the church.  Jesus is our King and Lord of our lives.  God Himself told us to honor His Son and that all would be well with us.  Where did we go wrong?  Spend some time in praise to God today and thank Him again for the air you breathe and all good things in your life.  True praise.

On this day
2006  After church Nicole left to go back to school at Albion.  She stopped to visit friend Adam who we families have been close to at church forever.  They are like family to us.  It was 60 degrees so I worked in the yard and put up lights outside.  Do you remember the Christmas cartoon where the string of lights come out of the box and wind around the tree all by themselves?  That's the only way my outside will get decorated this year.  Nicole did the tree in the house yesterday.  💗  I love the holidays but not seeing the huge decorating as being important anymore.  Many of my friends (my age) are going the same route.  Oh well.

1731 - English poet William Cowper was born. He is best known for "The Poplar Trees" and "The Task."   Here is a sample of his work.
God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea,
And rides upon the storm.

Hudson Bay Canada

Two of the churches in ArviatArviat (Inuit pronunciation: ​[aʁviˈat]syllabics: ᐊᕐᕕᐊᑦ; formerly called Eskimo Point until 1 June 1989) (2016 population 2,657;[4] Population Centre 2,514[5]) is a predominantly Inuit hamlet located on the western shore of Hudson Bay in the Kivalliq Region of NunavutCanada. Arviat ("place of the bowhead whale") is derived from the Inuktitut word arviq meaning "Bowhead Whale". Earlier in history, its name was Tikirajualaaq("a little long point"), and Ittaliurvik, ("a place where the people make tents").[9]

Enjoy the day!  Make it memorable!  Happy birthday Jessica!
