Our Sunday School Lesson was about taking our thoughts captive. Don’t let negativity draw you away from what you know is pure and good and Godly. Jerry Ryder preached the church time message and it was The Two Sides of Peace. 1) Live in Peace WITH God 2) Live the Peace OF God. Grace is described: God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense. There’s good news, but there is bad news too – but there is a FIX for the bad, as long as you make the right response. Be thankful, not uptight – trust God for inner tranquility. Worry accomplishes nothing. Good words to live by: Give it to God, and then go to sleep! Don’t take it back. Live like the Children of Heaven that your are.
After church I had a piece of toast with a slice of tomato for lunch, then did a few quick things outside. I finished cleaning off the driveway, and since the batteries were charged I could use the blower. I mixed up the home-made weed killer and put the new sprayer together. I test-sprayed the wood lining the driveway but it was too hot to spray everywhere. I think it would have evaporated before it soaked into the roots. Waiting for a cooler day.

Once I came back in, I took the ripped pocket flaps from a pair of old shorts. Then I cut the watermelon and there was SO MUCH! I took two big bowls over to Kathy’s picnic – and still have plenty at home for me.
More than enough for me…
Kath had a ton of great food – Paul made chicken, brats, and hot dogs on the grill. We had 3 kinds of salad, cheesy potatoes, chips, and desserts. Yum. I ate too much! Edy, Hattie, and Rosie are staying with them for 4 days, and Millie spent the night. She adores her older cousins. Their other grandparents, Chris and Wayne, and their cousin Lucy were there, too. Tonia and Isaac, Sarah, Kyle, Wyatt, too. It was a fun evening. Hannah and Dan are coming up on Thursday, picking up the 3 girls, and going hiking in Maine for a week. That’s an exciting vacation. And Edy just got back from a month in Greece! Wow!
