Start learning and reading and listen to the wise

Well it is almost Sunday morning and only a few hours to go to services.  I think a milestone has been struck... one of the things that I notice in my plans for weekends seems to always include... what we will be doing after church.   We no longer view it as...are we going or should we go it seems to be now become a given. I believe this we could call a bit of a growth spirit towards God.  That's a good thing.    We were working on our home theatre set up and were dog tired on Sunday morning. I am sorry that I missed last week as I was thinking I would be nice to review the readings ahead of time as they suggest from the bulletin for this Sunday but... no church on Sunday = no bulletin.  I will have to see if I can get a list and start listing them here on the blog if anyone else is interested or get some info updated on the web site.

Friday was a good day with David my senior that I visit with.  He was so amused to look at the blog with me on my cell phone and find that I had spoken of him.  He just lights up and his eyes sparkle when we spend a few moments to talk about God and good things in the world.  David I said... if someone is to just start learning and exploring what part of the bible would you tell them to read first.  Excitedly David sat up and pulled a black bible from under the table. The aged pages were crisp and slightly tattered and very well used.  Notations of all sorts were written into the edges of the pages and some of the text underlined.  You could see that it had been used for a very long time and used with great thought.  David suggested that I start with the Book of John.  He had a sheet in there with each chapters meaning outlined that he had written some 30 years ago to help him understand and study the book of John.  He was so excited he promised to print me out a copy for Monday to help me with my study.  He is so looking forward to Monday now.  I love to see that sparkle in his Irish eyes!  That must be were Irish Eyes are smiling comes from! 

Tomorrow at church I am going to give out the info about the blog so hopefully some will share and follow in my growth with God. 

Its almost Sunday now! 
Goodnight, Smile bright and God Bless
