It has been while since I have been able to do that. We had a nice restful day.
I was thinking about all the things I have to do! Oh, and then I thought I am going to just do them slowly! I sorted through the piles of clothes that were given to us. They gave us all sorts of name brand clothing. Some were summer and some were winter clothes. I sorted them out and put them away as well as did laundry, cleaned the house a bit, baked brownies and 2 big loaves of zucchini bread and one small one.
I finished my skirt that I was working on! It is tan with flowers on it and then I put ribbon around the waist for a waistband. I would like to sew a bit more, but I am not sure when I will be able to.
The boys are a bit wild and they need to go to sleep so away I go to get them to bed!
But before I go, I was thinking about forgiveness. Sometimes when I think about some of the hurts that I have suffered through it is so hard, but I think of Jesus and His great love for us and how much forgiveness He grants us.
Maybe I will start writing down some of my fun experiences I had in MN so I can remember them instead of some of the more unhappy ones! I did have a thought today that I remembered I took cold showers, to prepare me to be a missionary in Africa. It really was preparing me for MN and living without any running water! Not quite as lofty of mission work, but it was still an experience!
I enjoyed reading your blog. It sounds like you had a wonderful day. I know what you mean about forgiveness. Sometimes it is so hard to do and sometimes I think I've forgiven but something comes up to bring it back to mind and I realize that the unforgiveness is still there. It's an area I need to work on.
God bless,
Tammy
