Scripture Sunday

Savoring the Sabbath

Today, in church, we talked about the importance of the Sabbath day.  The discussion got me thinking. The fourth commandment in the ten commandments God gave to Moses teaches us to set aside one day out of seven to "rest" from work and to focus on worshiping God. "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it… Continue reading Savoring the Sabbath

#bethelight – Day 115

Today my act of kindness is to fill a box of silly things and send them to a missionary.  The last time I had a missionary in the field, the current missionary filled the boxes.  Well... I can't really ask her to fill her own box, now can I?  When people are far away, serving… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 115

Today my act of kindness was the extra hours I put into painting the set with little, and then later, no help. My list is still so long.

#bethelight – Day 111

Today I was just me... going to volunteer... mentoring students... writing out my thoughts. I didn't really go out of my way to do something special or decide to do something kind in advance.  I just tried to keep a possessive attitude.  I worked hard.  I listened.  I gave advice.  But that is all.  I… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 111
