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

Potted Plants

Today I went back to Lowe's and got more plants, specifically for chasing away bugs and mosquitoes.
I googled, "Plants That Repel Bugs" and got this hit from "activebeat." 

1.  Peppermint
2.  Basil
3.  Citrosum
4.  Sage
5.  Catnip
6.  Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus
7.  Lemon Balm
8.  Pennyroyal
9.  Citronella
10. Marigolds
11. Lavender
12. Garlic
13. Mint
14. Floss Flower

I was able to buy:
sweet basil
sage
lemon balm
citronella
marigolds
I also bought Rosemary.

After I got home, I began re-potting the herbs, flowers and veggies I had bought yesterday.  I still have more marigolds to re-pot.







This is the puzzle Mark and I are working on.  I got it from Ilene who got it from William, Buford's brother.




I slept like a rock last night after not sleeping Sunday night!  I didn't get up until 10.  I didn't really want to get up then, but knew if I didn't, I wouldn't sleep tonight!  I'm going to do some reading and then go to bed.

Thank You, LORD, for the safety, grace and blessings You provided to me today!
