I'm going to the Bay to visit these little girls. Say hello to Alicia and her older sister Madeline.

Can't wait to see the whole family. My mom is up there now and my pops is coming on Saturday. I'm driving with Truman and David's parents tomorrow night straight from Pasadena. Can't wait for the fun conversations during the 5 1/2 hr drive. When I get back it's crunch time. New Testament 2 Mid-Term on Tuesday. Systematics Theology 10-page research paper due on Thursday. Harvest Festival on Wednesday. Sermon on Sunday. Therapy twice a week now. First Mexico mission training on Saturday. See of our Homecoming kids on Saturday also. And Lakers opening game on Tuesday. Busy busy busy. Today I finished my 3-page paper for Systematics. Wasn't too bad. Had help from an editor and the wonders of FUNCTION/F7. And I also went shopping today for Maddy and Alicia. I found myself saying stuff like "that's cute" and "that's cuter." What these little nieces are doing to the juicedogg. I finished the book of Psalms for my devotions. Now I'm reading Proverbs. This nugget of truth really resonated within my soul and mind: Proverbs 2 1 My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you, 2 turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding, 3 and if you call out for insight
and cry aloud for understanding, 4 and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure, 5 then you will understand the fear of the LORD
and find the knowledge of God. 6 For the LORD gives wisdom,
and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. 7 He holds victory in store for the upright,
he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, 8 for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones. 9 Then you will understand what is right and just
and fair—every good path. 10 For wisdom will enter your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul. God's wisdom and truth has been searching my heart as I have been seeking to know Him more. It has been so very pleasant to my soul. Good stuff. Good stuff indeed. Off to the Bay Area I go. Faith, Hope, and Love. |
