That's Grace

It took my friends Donnie and Donna several trips with arms loaded to bring all the booty into my house yesterday. On behalf of The Vine Church and themselves, they brought cases of water, cookies, lovely vases and silk florals, not to mention a colorful profusion of fresh fowers... all of it wrapped abundantly in love.

As Donna stylishly arranged the florals, we had a great visit, from my perspective, anyway. They are very special friends and I probably talked their ears off. As I often do, I wandered from one rabbit trail to another and never quite kept track of what we were talking about but had a great time, anyway.

I was feeling a lot better by the time they arrived and have improved steadily since. I am hoping to be well enough to attend a meeting Wednesday night at church. I miss my church family and I miss being in God's house.

Richard painted at the other house today. We discovered God saved us from a burnout. On my last visit, I had lit several big scented candles... and forgot about them when I left. The candles were just setting on a dresser without holders. A neighbor saw the flickering lights and called one of the park officers at four in the morning afraid the house was on fire. I am so very thankful there was no fire! So thankful for caring neighbors with insomnia!!

Yes, I have been undeservedly blessed... that's GRACE!
