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 26, 2009

One of the ladies from our church is a quilter. She has probably hand stitched over 1,000 quilts in her life time. Sad to say that the one she made for us will probably be her last one. She has parkinson's disease and it is getting worse. She is in her late 80's and is currently in a nursing home facility. We fear she will probably not be able to come home again. She is taking physical therapy to strengthen her legs, but it really is not doing much. They will not let her go home unless she shows that she can walk and get around to take care of herself.
