More Often

I am trying.....now that I have sent out my new blog spot, I had better keep up on it.

School: I have a quote by Oswald Chambers, a great preacher, who talked about the 'drugery of routine'. That is where I am at at this time of the year...but he concludes that this is where 'we learn to live by the power of God.....' in the drugery of routine... It is being a typical Spring in the Rockies--rain, snow, grapple, sleet, wind--in any combination! With more snow this year there have been TOO MANY grey days. I do suffer from seasonal (grey days) depression. So I am MORE THAN READY....for the sun and warmer temps. I just continue to have to wear my heavy winter coat....UGH! As far as classes and kids...typical Middle School, that never changes.

Molly is going into 'The City' (New York) to see a play and go to dinner. Her roommate Jesse was able to get the tickets from the school. That will be a nice treat after a heavy week...5 tests... and 'life' at the Academy. I am soooo proud of Molly. As situations happen, her character and integrity tested, she is remaining true to her faith in God and herself. What a woman of God she is learning to be.

Emily and her 'other Mother' (Giles' Mom-Deb) and I met in Castle Rock, Co today. It is about 1/2 way between our homes in Arvada and Fountain. There is a WONDERFUL OutLet Mall there. We shopped, talked, ate lunch, talked, and talked and talked. Found some good bargins. Emily brought me the Wedding Pictures that I ordered. YEY! Now it is time to look for a special album and start saving for the framing of the 16X20 of Emily and Giles.

I have exciting news. We have a new Pastor of our church. He actually has been in Colorado Springs and doing a Church Plant.....right in our building!!! We were giving them our space on Saturday evenings. NOW his congregation will be merging with us......YEY new family of Christ! Our former Pastor resigned in Jan so we are glad that the process did not take long in finding someone new.

More next week....Reflection: Although 'Life' is happening all around...lots good, but some not, MY GOD IS IN CONTROL and He holds those I love and pray for in the palm of His hand.....
