Today is another story

Okay, Today is Tuesday. Ladies Bible Class. That is how I describe my day. Well, needless to say all I wanted to get done yesterday did not happen. However, today is another story. The water guy came and got it all set up. He hasn't put my new faucet in yet, that should be tomorrow. And I got the kids rooms and playroom all organized now.
My next project is to paint Elizabeth's new bed (Thomas' old convertible bed) and Thomas' new bed (Elizabeth's old bed - it looks more masculine) and put them in their new places. Then my next project.....paint...every room in the house.
Next week I get my new dinning room table and chairs. I am very excited about that.
Eventually, I am going to make this house my home instead of the house we live in with it's old owners style.
We had a good lesson in class today. We are discussing how to tell others about Jesus. I had a revelation a couple of years back that I am going to share. I wonder have you thought why are we here....God create us to fellowship with. He created us for the same reason we have children. Now the problem is because of sin and us being set apart from God our spirits yearn for that fellowship (the reason we were created) so people look to fill that void with other things...drugs, alcholol, sex, other gods. Did you ever think about that. That is why those who don't know Christ are not happy...they haven't found out why they are here. There was also another point made as to how to approach someone who absolutely feels that their sins are far too great for God to forgive. First, that is pride! Are they bigger than God? Is what they have done more impactful than what Jesus did? Ask them those questions and let them think on that..then tell them what Jesus did do, what it means, and how great it is.
Okay, sermon over....love ya!!

Sometimes we feel that we are worse than anyone else, but you are right, God is big enough to handle anything!

Hope you get your painting done. let me know if you need help with kiddos while you do that.

I wish I could get any of that across to my family, other than my parents. They really have no desire to even care and have no regrets of their past and that is just the tip of the ice berg. I will get back to you about the paint questions. I have been unbelieveable tired this afternoon and just out of it.

Hey there. Your blog seems nice. But I gotta say: I don't believe in Jesus and I'm happy. I don't drink, I don't do drugs, I'm just happy without Jesus. I'm a Jew.

And it would be awesome if you didn't try to convince me or other non-christians that we are going to burn in hell because we believe something different than you do.

I don't mean to be offensive -- I just really want you to think about another possiblity before you go out to sermon.

Cheers, K
