RIAY Day 73 Seek Him
St Joseph Novena Day 5
Memory Verse – Ephesians 1:16-18“do not cease giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation resulting in knowledge of him. May the eyes of [your] hearts be enlightened, that you may know what is the hope that belongs to his call, what are the riches of glory in his inheritance among the holy ones,”

Finally caught up with sleep. Amazing what that will do for a person. The office is serviceable. The laundry caught up. The kitchen floor isn’t sticky. Mail caught up. Birthday greetings currant. I have dropped the ball, that’s for sure. I even got the seat covers on the van seats and have the SUV covers ready to put on. Who knows what might happen before Monday? Bit the bullet and bought a new laminator. Contemplating a new phone, as the battery in mine isn’t holding a charge very well. Just don’t want to spend the $$. Working on correspondence I’m behind in, as well.

RIAY Day 72– Don’t Wait in Vain
St Joseph Novena Day 4
Memory Verse 1 Timothy 1:18-20 – “I entrust this charge to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophetic words once spoken about you. Through them may you fight a good fight by having faith and a good conscience. Some, by rejecting conscience, have made a shipwreck of their faith, among them Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.”

BLASPHEME… speaking (swear, curse, utter oaths, utter profanities, take the Lord’s name in vain) irreverently about God or sacred things. Also note that when Paul says he handed them over to Satan he meant excommunicated them come parc this with 1 Corinthians 5:5 and 1 Timothy 1:13.

That definition sort of jumped off the page because many times I day I can find myself saying things like OMG, or ‘what the hell’, and cursing-profanities is the norm these days. It is used in public as often as saying “hello”.

Morning,

My weekend was peaceful, how was yours? 
The man is in the south for the next few days, so I’m on my own with the coffee maker from hell.  The remodel is coming together with a laptop and printer.  Books are finding their way to the shelves. One of the bedrooms is sleepable.  The other is on the remodel list. The entire upstairs needs new flooring.  Until then, we make due. 
The decision to stop driving has been made. June 1 it is. Should anyone be interested in taking the workshop route, contact Chester at the leather shop; he’s looking for someone.
