I am sitting here in my happy spot. George has gone to take the kids to church and then on to go to do the shopping for the week.
Grateful - that George sees my need for a little quiet. He is a dear one.
I now have about 1 1/2 hours until I get ready for church that starts at 11:00 a.m.
Grateful - for some time to sit and reflect and journal (here) and pray
Sunday school will be our 9th lesson on Peacemaking for the excellent Ken Sande DVD series.
Grateful - that I go to a church that places a premium value on peacemaking by teaching its members how to make peace in a Godly way. This was one of our top ten things we were looking for in a church.
After that, I will have a long distance conversation with Katrina about "time."
Grateful - for wonderful online friends who love God!
I will also go and study the gospel of Mark with Norieh
Grateful -that God has heard my cries for this neighborhood and has brought Nourieh in my life to study Scripture.
Well, I am off to have a long prayer time before I "beautify" for church.
Grateful - for the gift of prayer and life in YOU Lord.

I'm happy for you that you had your short time of quiet this morning. I know how much I need those. I know you had to need it after the recent days you've had.
Sometime I'd love to hear more about the peacemaking. Sounds good.
Yeah for quiet spots in our days!!
