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

The Party is Over.....

But a new one will begin tomorrow!

It is bittersweet when everyone goes home after being here all week!  I love having everyone here, but after they all leave I cherish the QUIET!  That's the sweet part!  I love having everyone here, but then the cleanup begins!  That is the bitter part!  BOOO!  :D

Tomorrow begins a week away with hubby to a Pastors and Wives retreat up in the mountains of Boone, NC.  The temps are supposed to be a high of 78 in the day and a low of 62 in the mornings!  WOW!  Am I looking forward to that!  I just hope that means the humidity will be much lower, too!  So, I will not be posting anything until I get back because more than likely there will be no internet definitely and probably no phone service.

Jessica and the kids left here around 2:00.  She made really good time and was home at 8:00!  Here are the last of the pictures from today, taken at church.

These first ones were taken with my camera.







I love this one!


These were taken with my phone.



She was NOT having it!  :D



Nite all!
