Phillipians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Well, it is Monday morning again. Time to start getting up early again. I usually sleep in an hour on weekends. Which is nice. Not only is it Monday morning it is also pouring rain. So far not a good start to the day. I prefer sunny days. :) I do praise God though for all the rain he has been giving us because we usually still are having trouble with our well going dry this time of year but this year we got our water flowing and keeping the well full since the end of September which is definitely a Praise God!!
Yesterday I rested and it felt so good, the Lord sure knew what he was doing when he said on the seventh day to rest from your work. Everyone needs to rest and rejuvenate. I did trim the goat's hooves with my daughter. I should have done that on Saturday so that I would not have to do it Sunday but I was running around town with my mom on Saturday. I am working on not doing any work on Sunday's but it is a slow process and believe it or not it is difficult.
I will end with a story that the Pastor told us in church on Sunday.
There was this young lady who was going on a flight and for some reason her flight was not going to be leaving for awhile so she went to one of the shop's and got a magazine and a package of cookies. She took her cookies and magazine to the vip lounge and sat down at a table to enjoy them. There was this gentlemen sitting at the table who also was reading a magazine. She reached down and got a cookie and noticed that this gentleman also reached down and got a cookie. The young lady was furious but decided not to say anything but she was fuming on the inside. Well, time went on and she ate a cookie and then he ate a cookie and they got down to the last cookie and she thought to herself, "I just know he is going to take the last cookie". And he reached down took the last cookie, broke it in half and gave it to the lady. Well, she was fuming inside still but still did not say anything. Later, she got onto her plane and sat down and opened her purse to get her glasses out so she could read her magazine and when she looked down into her purse there was her package of cookies that she bought. Little did she know that whole time she was furious at that man for eating her cookies she was actually eating his!
Have a blessed day everyone and remember to share your cookies!
April
