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

June 20, 2009

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my youngest son, Nathanael, who turned 24 today! Where has the time gone?! Hope you had a terrific day!

Well, I worked my fingers to the bones cleaning today. Not only did I have to clean the house, but I cleaned the church because the lady and her husband who usually do it are on vacation. My first mistake was not making sure the kids picked up after themselves yesterday before they left. But with taking them to the pool and trying to get everything washed and gathered together before we took them to meet Liz and Brad, I just didn't think about it! But, that's ok! At least most of the mess was confined to the dining/living room area. So, it didn't take too long to straighten things back up and put everything back where it belonged. It sure is quiet around here! :)

Hannah asked me "when are we going to see grandma by church again?" I toldher we were going to try to come down for VBS. She said she misses you. Thanks for keeping them but I am glad to have them back!

It was my pleasure! I miss them all, too! It was fun, but I can only handle a week of that at a time and only once in awhile, LOL!

Are you planning on staying here for VBS, too?
