It's grand being in God's service!!!! Julie had the lesson at JDC this past Thursday. We all read through John 6:25-51 together.....having whomever wanted to read - read. This passage is about "the Bread of Life". Then we broke into 3 groups (each of us had about 4 to 5 kids) and Julie had questions for us from this passage. The kids were great.....Gary said his group of girls just "dove into the questions"....searching !!! for the answers. I had a group of boys and when it came to the question "How has Jesus described himself" (in this lesson and past lessons).....the boys exceeded the asked for 1-4 answers and mentioned 7 ways that Jesus describes himself. ....... Good Shepherd, Living Water, Son of God, Bread of Life, Creator, Messiah, and Saviour. YES!!!
A lot of the kids that we have right now have been with us for quite a while and it is so wonderful to know that they are remembering the lessons that we have given in the past. Once again -- we went home "joyful"!!!!
Keep praying for these kids!!!!......God is at work!!!!
Today started out foggy but now at 2:30 it is just gorgeous out. We had a little bit of snow - maybe another inch --- there was ice in the trees and that is now shining in the sun. The cattle are basking in the sun too.
Gary had a successful day --- found a leak in the gas line (well sort of the gas line - he could explain it better).....anyway - that problem is now gone and the welder / generator will be delivered to Dwight and Rob for their farm repairs.
I've been reading a devotional (given to me by a dear friend) --- JESUS CALLING -- Enjoying Peace in His Presence by Sarah Young. I am really enjoying it!! They are short devotions with Bible passages to firm up the thought given by Sarah. To know and think and ponder on the fact that Jesus is so alive in our lives and so present in all of our circumstances....it's wonderful to think on.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!
