Morning Offering

Village sleeps… very dry here…

No coffee… I’ll have to fire the coffee maker and learn how to do it myself

IF… coming steady

NT… coming along well. Although I can say I am tired of having to do this routine 2 times a day for 35 mins. I guess if I had a regular schedule it wouldn’t bug me so much.

Cpap… yes I am using it

Daylight Saving Time, those who think it is so great… where are you guys? I am not seeing any extended outdoor activity. Not seeing parents spending more time outside with their children. In fact most days I don’t see children outside and when I do they are all carrying or have their nose glued to some kind of electronic divice. What I do see are sleep deprived human beings dragging themselves thru the day. I am one of those people.

J Troyer’s auction today. If cars are any indication of successful attendance the auction yesterday was extremely successful. I will however say many thought they were the only ones there if the way they parked and drove is any indication.

Nelson Ag’s Spring sale this week.

Monday it’s time to purchase the Turkey Lisence.

Ordered Esken’s next book CD “Saving Emma” I so enjoy this author.

Scripture Readings Jer 11:18-20; Psalm 7:1-12; Jn 7:40-53
Verse for today: Lk 8:15 “Blessed are they who have kept the word with a generous heart and yield a harvest through perseverance.”

Let’s talk about “perseverance” I’ve had a signature for ages that says “bearing fruit thru perseverance…DV (Deo Volente (God Willing))” for a very long time. I started using it when I realized that if one doesn’t bear fruit (the kind God wants) there is no real purpose to life. I realized early in life (mid teens) that having a car, spending money, name brand items, the latest popular thing did absolutely NOTHING for my soul. It made me the go to person for spongers. Those things contributed NOTHING to my soul. Frankly, without them it was a much better world. I have never been able to convince my children of that. They still strive for the “having stuff”.

Know you are prayed for.
