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

May 16, 2009

I did some more bargain shopping today at the thrift store I like to drop by at least once a week! They have a different colored tag at 50% off each week. I usually only look for that color of tag when I go in. But, today my mission was to look for a pair of shoes that would be more comfortable to wear on our visitation trips. And I wanted them to go with pants. And I found the perfect pair! Brand new! Still had the store tags on them! $4! SOLD! And, since I was in the market for another pair of black sandals, I got the other pair shown, for good measure and because they, too, were brand new, even tho they didn't have the store tags to prove it! I could tell from the sole that they had never been worn! I was actually looking for a dressier pair to wear to church, but at $3! SOLD! OK, so I now have 2 brand new pairs of shoes that only cost me $7! I hope when I wear them that I still agree that they were a bargain!

To quote my middle granddaughter Tigger: "Cute!" (You must say the word in your best Valley Girl voice to get the full effect.) :)
