Good Friday - another busy week - can't see that I have accomplished much, but then on the other hand, the important stuff gets done - and the "busy" work doesn't- I've smelled the flowers and worked at the church. Got some good cleaning done there, in preparation for Easter. Also some one (Worship Committee??) decided we would have a new pictorial directory - and that it would be done on Thursday and Friday sooooooo here we are on Good Friday, cameras every where, sweet little old people (I include myself in this category) trying to find the photographer, and trying to keep a pleasant smile for posterity. Who is keeping the appointment desk? How come the wind is blowing a gale, do you have a comb - why did they change places? are you sure its in the fellowship hall? NO--its in the education bldg. Ah Spring. We did manage to have a meaningful Maundy Thursday Service. (in the fellowship hall (the sanctuary was set up for Pictures) I am thankful we are able to launch this new Directory, and still keep our wits to know that the church is there, a sanctuary even in times of stress. It is only a building, We are the Church (quote from Jim Spiller). I'm not complaining, I am constantly amazed at the things that can be accomplished, when I am sure they won't be. And for anyone who is struggling with insurmountable problems, hang in there - God has a plan!
And at home ..we were entertained by a tiny mouse racing around the living room, bumping into coffee table legs, and disappearing into the fire place if we moved. Laundry got done, wardrobe for picture taking got chosen, and like I said at first, the daffodils are in full tilt, and crocus all over the place, I guess the kids had a good spring break, and onward and upward to a Glorious Easter Sunday. Bless each of you and keep you safe, that's my prayer every morning. Love you.
