His Poiema

little of this, little of that

So how is everyone doing on their bible reading these days??  I've fallen behind, need to reorder my priorities and get up earlier!  (and go to bed earlier..) I just finished Joshua today, now on to Judges! 

Last night we had the funeral service for my father in law, it was really nice.  Mike managed to get through the whole service and did a great job.  My brother in law provided for some comic relief with a light hearted story about my father in law and my mother in law did a great job of holding it all together.  We had a reception afterward at the home of one of our church friends who lives nearby, lots of people and food.  The kids got to play with their cousins and stay up way too late.  Today was not so pretty in the Nevarr household.  Yesterday we went to the library, so Lukas and Eden spent most of the day reading after I gave up trying to get some school done in the morning. I should have known better! My mom is still here, so she took the kids to the park across the street (if you can call 3 swings and a slide a park!) and kept them busy and entertained.   Mike took the older 3 to my mother in laws so they could spend a little more time with their cousins before they go back to W.V, so it will be another late night for them since it's 9:30 and they're still not home.  My brother is finally able to be here at the house, it's nice to have him here and he's doing really well. He shares his cookies with me that people bake him as get well gifts   My brother, who isn't very heavy to begin with, lost weight while he was in the hospital so now we're all trying to fatten him up again. Of course, it would help if he didn't have so much help eating those cookies!  People have been so very incredibly kind and supportive and helpful these past few weeks.  It makes me appreciate even more how the body of Christ is supposed to work, when I see it being worked out on such a personal level. And i so apprecite those of you who are praying for my family, I know that the Lord is working through those prayers.

Just as a side note, the font has been small the past few posts b/c I was using a mac which doesn't let me change the font size for some reason.  Mike got me this beautiful new computer  - the mac, which I really like, but I still use my trusty laptop to do most of my "work"  All my files are saved on this computer, and I've not figured out how to switch them over yet.

So! That's all for now.

"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them" Ephesians 2:10 Poiema is the Greek word for workmanship =) This is me, walking.... sometimes missing the signs but the Lord is always kind to make them larger the next time around.
