James chapter 1 "My brothers and sisters, whenever you face trial of any kind, consider it nothing but joy, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance; and let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking in nothing...." I notice the fact that he addresses both his brothers and his sisters in faith. This wasn't always done in the Bible, even though women have had prominent places in our biblical history. As the disciples went out to share the Gospel they needed strength and guidance from all of the new Christians, including women. We are still a dominant force in the church and the full responsibility falls on us also because of that. Be a woman of faith - or respect the women of faith if you are a man. We share the Gospel and the work equally.
On this day
1990 Nicole and I went over to Mom's house to feed her cat Dominick. She went up north with Andy, Alice and the girls. Then we went to the marina and out on the boat with the Logan's. Nicole loved those people and they really enjoyed her. She was Jim's favorite bar tender. "Nick would you go down and get Uncle Jim another beer and a gozinta (to keep the beer cold). She would hustle down the stairs and come back up with the beer in the holder. We went downtown for a cruise on this day and didn't get home till 12:30. They were great friends and we had great memories.
