This and That from Here and There

Heading toward farewell

It was kindly arranged that I would have one more night in South Carolina before heading back to Indiana on Tuesday. After Wilmington Special Meeting on Sunday, I rode with some of the brothers back to the convention grounds at Cassatt. Jennifer and Marylou were waiting for us along with the folks of the home. It was a very special "last stop."

Jennifer and I walked 4.56 miles on Monday morning.

Good friends

Homemade is better

Thanks, Marylou!

Wilmington Special Meeting Thoughts

Though the future was hidden from view, the disciples continued to follow.

We are weak, but we do believe.

Grace is like a divine influence on our lives that changes us.

God wants to help us please Him.

There's an unlimited quantity of grace available to us. We have access to it by faith.

Only a live fish can swim against the current.

One of the greatest tests in life is to have the right spirit.

The book of Philemon can really be summarized in three words: forgiveness, reconciliation, intercession.

We're glad that God is able to work with such imperfect material as we are.

What's that again?

On our way home after our walk, we drove by a church sporting the name of:

The Greater Macedonia Fire Baptized Holiness Church of God of the Americas

Saturday evening

One of our afternoon activities was to take a walk in a park near downtown Wilmington. The trail took us around a lake with continual posted signs to be on the lookout for alligators. We decided they must be hibernating. What we did see was beautiful in a January sort of way.
