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

I'm BURNT Out!

A little pun there! :)

I told you that I would be "burning" DVDs like a mad woman since I have my EHD accessible on my laptop, and that is just what I have been doing! It takes 2-3 hours to burn ONE DVD, for whatever reason, on my laptop! YIKES! So, here I am, 13 DVDs later, and I am getting quite SICK of doing this! BUT, I am persevering to the end! Today, between loads of laundry, etc, I will continue to "burn" and also try to get some much needed knitting done! That baby shower is gonna be here BEFORE I'm ready for it!

Here's a picture of my "burn" station! Sitting to the right of my computer desk and the laptop and EHD have not been turned off in days! Mainly because I'm afraid to disrupt the connections to the EHD! :) We only had 9 DVDs so we bought a pack of 100 last night! YIKES! Since Tim and I have been out on dates, etc. the last 2 days (Thursday we had a picnic at a park and walked the walking trails, then went to a dinner sponsored by the Assisted Living facility we support every month. Friday we went to see "The Last Song" and what a tear-jerker that was, ladies!) I have been staying up til 2:30-3:00 AM doing burning and trying to finish a baby kit that will be designated for charity with all proceeds going to a Pro-Life group! So, don't be upset, girls, that I WILL NOT be giving this kit to you! I want you to "buy" it for the good of the cause! I think it will be by donation. I'll tell you more about it later (mid May).

Have a great Saturday, everyone! The tornado weather from the west is supposedly moving this way, but it is bright and sunny right now! Love you all (friends and family included! :)

I'm glad for you that you've been out dating your husband! :-) Your anniversary is around the corner, isn't it? The 8th? How many years will it be?

34 years! May 8, 1976
Too bad I didn't get any pictures of that 3rd floor apartment I had moved into a few months before to get it ready for us. That is where we got married by the justice of the peace. My, oh, my! The water that has flowed under the bridge since then! I'll have to make sure I scan and post some pictures of those early years on May 8th!
