My Hope is in Him

Salvation Army Day

Okay, here I am again.  Today our church serves lunch at the Salvation Army in town.  It is something I really enjoy doing.  I always bring the boys along.  I figure service counts for school too!  I get great satisfaction from preparing a homemade meal from scratch for people not as blessed materially as me.  It is quite timely too, as our pastor has been preaching on contentment.  There's nothing like a sermon on contentment to bring thoughts of discontentment to your mind!  Why does it work that way???  I don't know.  And I'm guessing it is no coincidence that this series of sermons has come right before Tax Day.  Tax Day is not a happy day in our home.  Since we are self-employed, we almost always have to pay.  Something.  It can be painful.  For some reason it really hacks me to have to send to much money to the IRS when I could do so much better with it!  Oh well, that's how it goes, I guess.  Anyway, we are going to be a blessing to others this morning, I pray.

 

Until next time,

I kept getting a blank page until today.
I can add you to my friends' list now. Did you get my message on how to do that?
What else had you asked me? oh, the trackbacks... I haven't had much luck with them. I usually copy the links into my post.
If you highlight them and type without spaces, it will rename them.

Anyway, take care!

Many Blessings and Teachable Moments to You!!
