Raining AGAIN!

"Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants."
Deuteronomy 32:2


It is raining again here! I am enjoying the sound of the rain on the roof, and the thunder. I am so thankful for a warm house to live in, and for all my blessings! Micah asked if I would water his new garden on Saturday morning for him. I love to watch a garden grow, and hope that The results of the teaching God is giving to me will please him as much as I am pleased with watching our garden grow. I feel so often lately that I am not blooming like I should. This rain tonight reminds me that I need to grow with each day, with each new lesson in my life. Lord, let me soak into my soul, the lessons you send my way.

Scattered thoughts this night:
Terry is thinking about going back on a sleeper; a route to Albuquerque He will find out tomorrow if he gets the bid. If h e does, he will not get to be home again on Sundays. I need to buy him a new Bible, and need to go to A Christian book store for one. The one I got him for his birthday said LARGE PRINT on the label, and I did not check it out, was just happy to get him a little bible, easy to carry with large print. Well the print is too small for him to read, and so I need to go to a Christian supply store to shop for the perfect little bible with large print. Anyone want to go with me????

Kristi, Carolyn, and Ken will be getting back to St Louis on Saturday afternoon. I am very much looking forward to seeing my Beautiful Baby again! I cannot wait to hear about the mission trip. I missed seeing things in emails this year. That was so nice last year, to get to see pictures often.

Housing:

We have pretty much decided on a berm home. I think it is going to resemble a castle in the front. Right now we are staying a a trailer park, and think we might finish Micah and Nicole's basement and move in there until our house is done. Nicole said we have 5 years until they move their kids to the basement. We have a really cool idea in the oven for our house, and it will be practically free to build the outside structure. It will be very economical on heating and cooling, and a very spacious house for all our kids and their kids on holidays. It will even be big enough for all the dil's (Daughter-In-Laws) parents and siblings to join us too!




PRAYER TIME:I pray for all of you, and am praying right now for Kristi and Ken and Carolyn and Joe in Liberia, Africa. Praying God does a mighty work through them, and that they return home safely on Saturday.
