We are enjoying the final days of summer here in Central Kentucky. Football has started and we attended the newly renovated Commonwealth Football Stadium on Saturday and watched the Wildcats defeat the ragin' cajuns. It was a lot closer than we would have liked, but a win is a win, and we're gonna keep rooting for Coach Stoops and his troops.
I can hardly believe that my little grandson, MJ, is almost eight months old, he's the center of my universe right now, as I try to muddle through my life, doing what God has planned in advance for me to do. I believe watching MJ three days a week is exactly one of those things. I don't know what I'd be doing if it wasn't watching him on Monday, Wednesday and Thursdays.
Right now, my family is making it through something of a health crisis with my mom, who was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in her colon last month. After successful surgery to remove it, "Thank you, God", she has had something of a setback after her incision beccame infected. Right now she is back in the hospital, after being home a week, so they can get her back on the right track. I know that God is watching over us all, so I can feel at peace that He is in control.
I continue with my volunteer positions at church, the Amen House and Homemakers. Actually, homemakers was on hiatus for the summer and we picked up where we left off just this past Thursday. Our club struggles with age and health issues. MJ enjoys being at the meetings and I think they all enjoy seeing him there as well. We are also at the Amen House on Mondays, though I don't get a lot accomplished, except when my friend, Pat, holds him because she loves babies. Then I can sort clothes or whatever needs done and her spirits are lifted some.
My Sunday school class continues our journey through the Beth Moore study on Daniel, which has surprisingly for me, also taken us to Revelation. As Beth often says, our heads can be spinning with all of the information about the prophecies in these books. And, coincidentally, the BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) that we are beginning next week is on, what else, Revelation. If you know me, I pay attention when God presents me with coincidences.
Everything else in my life is stable. I am so blessed with all the opportunities that God places before me through the people and events in my life. I'm going to enjoy this beautiful, yet hot, summer day and continue to count my many blessings. Now that Fall is almost here, and it's a time of new beginnings for school and activities that have been on the back burner all summer, I am going to make every effort to remain faithful with my blog, whether anyone reads it or not. If I can encourage one of my friends in some way to strengthen their relationship with God through the things they read, the music they listen to or the things that they experience, I'll feel that I have fulfilled some of my purpose.
I hope you have a great day! Stay safe. luv, Susan
