Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen

April 16, 2009

The weather today was kind of chilly, but the sun was shining! Enough so that we all got a little sunburn while at the zoo in Asheboro, NC. One of the guys I worked with at Amos plant in WV told me about this zoo. He raved about how great it was. It was OK. Some of the displays were under maintenance, so we didn't get to see the animals (polar bears, for one). It was pretty crowded, too! And, the line for the tram to get back to the beginning was so long, we decided to hoof it back......up hill basically all the way! WOOHOO! What a trip that was pushing 2 sleeping kids! But, I needed the exercise, anyway! Boy, my calves are sore now, though! But, back to the opinions of the zoo......for the price, well worth the money! We were there about 6 hours and the kids did really well! It kept them entertained the whole way!

So, those of you who are our friends, take it from me, when you go to Myrtle Beach this year, make a stop at this zoo! It is an hour from our house! Talk to me about it!
