Coffee good
the man still sleeps
Great conversation with my sil Cheryl last evening. We need to connect more often.
the mulching is almost completed, it got to be a larger and larger project as we went along. Well worth the time and effort…mostly the man’s time and effort…think of me as project manager.
Do you love me? John 21:16 Jesus asked this question of Peter and he asks it of you and me as well. Do you love me? Immediately I think of the poem Sonnet 43 by Elizabeth Barrett Browning
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
We’re all prone to thinking love between a man and a woman, Jesus isn’t talking about that kind of love.
I’d best get a move on
Know you are prayed for
