Claude taught our lesson today. We are studying Hewbrews this month. It was a good lesson. Thanks to Claude for filling in for Shirley. She is out of town. We missed you Shirley. We had a few others out, too.
Things are getting quite here now. The bigger children are watching Scooby-Doo. They will be getting in bed soon. Luke is already in bed and Jacob is playing on his palet on the floor. He just turned over! He started that one day this past week. He will be as big as Luke before we know it.
Later!

God Is Good
If you missed this past Wednesdy night Prayer Meeting, you missed a real blessing. We had a wonderful Bible Study. Several were added to the prayer list. Ray Davis has a mass in his right lung and other spots in the other. He will have a biopsy Monday, August 11, in Mobile. James Griffin will have to go back to Houston in a month due to some areas they are watching. His last visit the area had not changed. Martha Harrell's Mom has some disk problems with her back and will have an epidural soon. Martha has some health problems, too. Elizabeth Hare has some problems with dementia and really needs our prayers and remember her family, too.
We left after Sunday School for vacation at the beach. We are all 10 here now and Wyatt, Daisy, Maggie, Bryan, Abby & Zach are taking a walk on the beach. Baby Jacob is napping and little Luke is playing in the floor entertaining Ward & me. I love to hear him laugh with such force in a deep voice. His smile lights up the whole room and of course our hearts.
The beach looks peaceful right now. Most of the "sun bathers" are gone in for the day. Just a few people walking and enjoying the late afternoon. This is my favorite time of day down here.

Tryin' It Again!
Well, here I am again. Blogging! I hope I can stick with it this time. It really helps me to be more accountable not to mention that I really enjoy sharing with you all. We missed several Wednesday nights due to bronchitis, but we are back now. For some reason Wednesday Prayer Meeting makes me want to blog. It also seems to make me more accountable to my Lord. I think Wednesday Church is the bridge between Sunday Bible study and worship. That bridge just keeps me on track better during the week. It is a reminder that Christ expects my very best during the week as well as on the week-end. Silly analogy, but I just need Wednesday Church.
Wednesday Bible Study was very much a blessing this week. Sunday was wonderful, too. We had a good crowd in Sunday School. We missed Peggy, Thomas, Larry & Billy. We added Mac Bedwell to our prayer list. He is the grandfather of our computer repair man. We are studying from the book of Hebrews the month of August. One thing that puzzled me was in Hebrews 1:2. The verse says that "in these last days God has spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things and through whom He made the universe. I never even thought about that last part, "through whom He made the universe". I just never think about Jesus being there when the universe was created. Now, I know God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit have ALWAYS been. But...when we study Genesis 1, we learn that God created the world in 6 days and on the 7th day He (God) rested. But, Jesus was there, too and so was the Holy Spirit. Proof again that Jesus IS God and NOT just a prophet or a good teacher.
In worship, we had a "house full"!! Brother Don brought a very eye-opening. As always it blessed my heart so much. His text was Luke 14:17. I also learned something else that amazed me. "God always has everything ready"! What a statement!! When He created the fish, he had the seas ready, the birds had trees to nest in and bugs and seed to eat; when He created man, the whole Earth was ready for man to have domain over; when Jesus came to Earth he had a life planned for Him; AND back to creating man, He knew we would need a Savior and you know the rest of that story!! What a great Lord's Day.
Zach is at his daddy's this week. I have Jacob this week. He is so sweet, but we really miss "brother"!!
We leave for vacation next Sunday after Church. ALL TEN OF US!!! What a good time we will have. I will include pics during the week.!!
Check out Daisy's blog and read the post from yesterday (I think). Ward hasn't read it yet, but I know he will cry when he does.
Post again later. In Christ's Love.
