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

Night Time Reading

Ilene and I were up early today to get ready for her doctor's appointment, which ended up not happening due to a misunderstanding. But since we were out and about, we decided to make the best of it by doing some thrifting. We went to a couple of consignment shops, too. I only found one blouse while Ilene found 3 dresses and a purse.
While out, we decided to have soup and salad for lunch at Olive Garden.

Ilene and I thrifted some more after lunch before going home. I worked on filling the bird feeders. Then Joy, Ilene's daughter came over and she visited for quite awhile. Then we watched a movie after Joy left. And since we got up so early, we were ready for bed early.

My nightly ritual is to spend time in my room reading before bed. I write a note about my day in a journal and then read my Bible. Sometimes I read from the fiction books I have been collecting. It depends on how tired I am. Tonight I won't be reading anything other than my Bible.

And with that being said, I'm going to say good night!
