Once again my neighbor Al bailed me out – he walked across the street with his trusty snow blower and cleared off my driveway and my neighbor Karen’s driveway. I do so appreciate his help! The roads were clear as I drove over to Di’s and picked up things she had for me and my family. I got groceries at Aldi’s, then worked at the Greensburg store, then on to Jeannette. By the time I got home it was almost 3pm, so I grabbed a quick egg sandwich. I cleaned all the fresh veggies I bought and tomorrow I will roast them – according to Joanna Gaines’ recipe that was on her website a few years ago. They are so yummy! I spent about 45 minutes looking for a small rug for my entrance way to match the other rugs in my family room. I ordered it and I’ll see if it actually shows up!
I will share Micah’s message from Old Mahoning – Love Does. If you love, you take ACTION. It’s a command, and love is the greatest motivator. Three points of love: 1) Love puts meaning into service – your speaking ability, spiritual gifts, and sacrificial actions. 2) Love puts maturity into your character – I Cor 13:8 Love never fails; never is in past tense; demands a response. Authenticates your discipleship; love will flow out of your life. 3) Love puts motivation into life – Better choice in your priorities. SHARE love, finish well. Depend on God and let him lead you. He will direct your paths, and you will hear ‘well done’! You will understand – let love mature and direct you.
