Yay! Our tree is all decorated! It is beautiful in person!
Got up at 7 and looked out and was surprised to see the grass and deck were covered with snow. Last night Melissa and I checked and they had moved the starting time to later in the day. Guess they were wrong again. I slept the whole night in bed, without having to move to the chair. Yay! IWe got ready for church, and left a few minutes early because Bill had to be at a table in the foyer to talk to veterans and have them sign up for a church veteran group. He had a lot sign up. I went back to my Sunday School Class and made sure everything I needed was there and went over my lesson again. Then I went into put my stuff by Bill’s Bible, I talked to Tina for a while. Then I walked around and talked to others. The worship started. It was amazing worship so Bill and I went up to the altar to worship again. We’ve been going up there for a couple of months now. Others are going up to worship too. After worship, I went back to teach. Erica was my helper and did a great job. We only had 8 kids today. It was a great lesson about David being anointed as king and about God not looking at the outward appearance, but looking at the heart. We played a game and the kids had fun coloring. I went to pray, but by the time parents picked their children up, it was too late. I talked to Nancy for a while, then went in to sit down. I was talking to a couple of the guys that go to SVSU. We have quite a few coming to church now. Katelyn who was the lead singer during worship this morning came over and talked too. She is an amazing singer and anointed worshipper. I told her how amazing worship was this morning and thanked her. She’s friends with the guys I was talking to and is going to college too.
I went into the service and didn’t see Bill’s Bible on a chair like usual. He had been out in the foyer handing out $10 Chick til A gift cards to all of the veterans. There were 22 veterans at church today. Pastor honored them and had us honor them too by having them all stand up. We love our veterans!
I was happy to get to listen to the message. Bill told me I should take notes because it was such a great message on worship and offering ourselves as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God which is our reasonable service as it says in Romans 1:1. It was the best message and it got everyone excited about worshiping God. I can’t wait until next week.
I went up and prayed at the altar while Bill went out and stayed at the Veteran’s table to hand out gift cards for the second service. Ally came up for prayer and then Ashton and his girlfriend came up after prayer to give me hugs and talk for a while. Ashton will be 21 in December. It is so nice having young people that like hanging out with us older people.
We went home and Bill got his tools, I made us peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and we headed to Vikki’s. Bill helped her get 3 stripped screws out of the pool table she is giving away today. The guys are coming at 2 to pick it up. It’s in pieces and then they will put it together and have to recover it. Bill got it done and on our way home Vikki texted and said they were picking it up. We went to Sam’s Club and got a few things, then came home.
We took a nice nap, After that, I worked more on the tree. I stopped to make eggs, air fried potatoes and toast for dinner. We ate and then I finished the tree. It looks beautiful and takes up a lot less room because it is narrower and not so wide at the bottom.
I worked on my blog, talked to Vikki and also FaceTimed with her and talked to Melissa.
