Sunday School

Laura and I walked early leaving at 4:30.  She is dedicated.  I bought us head lamps to help out in dark spots.  Erin shared her Sunday school lesson with me.  If one has a good teacher, S S is better than church.  

Erin shared 10 lessons for living from Ecclesiaste authored by  the wisest man who ever lived..  Every human achievement disappears like our breath.  Only God’s work is lasting.  So do His work.  We can find meaning in life only through our faith in our Lord.  All other things are dead ends.  They finally dwindle out and we tire of them.  Use our time to do good as time is God’s gift.  It can be snuffed out in an instant.  Keep our promises to God and others.  Don’t be wishy washy, but obey.  Trust in the Lord and pray for His will to be done in all things.  Be humble.  He forgives our sin.  We should forgive others.  Life is short.  Don’t wait to do God’s work.  Labor for Him today.   Enjoy today and count your blessings, one by one.  Fear God.  He’s sees all we do.  He knows our mind.  Don’t just wash your hands, wash all those thoughts that aren’t Godly from your brain.  We are held accountable for our actions.  He forgives our sin but the consequences remain.  Wow, I can’t do all this, but I’m trying.

I’ve had my blessing for today.  This morning it was really hot for our early walk, but at 8:30 I went to get chicken feed and was surprised by coolness to the air.  My Red Maple is bursting with vibrant colors framed by blue skies and pillowy clouds.   God is good all the time.

And Erin showed me that God keeps his promises.  He’s the best friend to have in times of trouble.  My biggest wish is for His loving protection to cover Greta and Ada.  They are too young to get the vaccine.
