Today was a pretty normal November Wednesday, except that it was sunny and upper 60s again, just beautiful. Levi went to PP all day, Jesse worked some for Uncle Randy, and the rest of us just did our same old routine here. Aunt Sarah came for lunch and a walk, with time to read to a crew too which they loved.
Joshua is our biggest book-lover so far at his age (not quite 2)…just has to say something about something on almost every page.
After supper we all went to church; with Joshua’s energy (good nap!) and other issues I didn’t get to focus on the sermon quite like usual. Sometimes I don’t catch any TakeAways – but thankfully that’s not the only reason we go to church. Yes, it’s nice, and we rejoice when we are changed or challenged by God through the words of a speaker, but we are also blessed by the simple act of worshiping God. Thanks, ASK, for your insight on that. Sometimes it’s the singing, sometimes it’s the prayers, sometimes it’s the TakeAways, and sometimes it’s the fellowship. But other times, it’s just the blessing of being there in obedience to God’s word: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another (Hebrews 10:25).
At any rate, for whatever reason, I had a horrible headache by the end of the service; thankfully Dad was okay with leaving right away which we did. I went straight to bed after quick goodnight kisses (no backrubs) and Dad put the rest of the house to bed.
