Did the Romans decorate crosses with Easter Lilies?  :P


My parents are getting to where they are not safe to leave alone.  Mom said while ago that dad had a spell on her while they were at town yesterday and his sugar was extremely low when they got home and she checked it.  He doesn't historically have sugar problems.  He doesn't eat and drink like he should really I don't think sometimes.  These poor old people.  *sigh*

Yes. Good thing about the things I have to buy for the cross, I don't need money. The church funds pay for that.

I just handed dad my savings money that I had saved for the meetup. :smirk2: He has to have gas to get back and forth to town for dialysis and hyperbarics this week. They have to amputate two more of his toes as well, after his hyperbarics are finished. He has 16 more two hour sessions.

The Lord will make a way somehow
When beneath the cross I bow...

Might not be what you want though.  But here's hoping it includes being at Petit Jean.

Amen.

I'm sure dad will pay me back when he does sell the motorhome. But I'm not gonna ask. And it wasnt much, but it was what I had especially FOR the trip.


Anyway. God is good. I have wonderful friends who make me laugh and smile. And who truly love me. :)


Headed to run my errands and get to church.

Mel, I just looked up the oven-cooked bacon link you sent me to make sure I remembered right, 'cause I want to do BLTs tonight. :) So. Here goes my experiment. :) Gonna get the bacon cooked ahead of time, 'cause this evening is looking to be very busy.

Gonna head to church shortly.... Teaching tonight because the other minister was busy and pastor had a tooth pulled today.

Teaching; Worship the ultimate form of submission.

Or something along those lines.

We had midweek service last night but no cell groups this week due to MO youth convention. 

Last night the teacher taught on some awesome fulfilled prophesies of Jesus.  So I thought I'd share:

Sunday is considered the first day, though Jews call it just the first day or Day 1.  Day one is called the day of deliverance.  God created light, Noah landed the ark, Israelites crossed the Red Sea, and Jesus came into Jerusalem; all on Sundays. 

Sunday, of the "Holy Week" had the little spotless lamb brought into Jerusalem.  They petted, praised God, fanned with palm leaves, excited that the reproach of God would be taken away.  Shortly thereafter, Jesus came through, they did the same things thinking Jesus would be a political king and not realizing the "lamb" significance.

The first few days they inspect the lamb.  The first few days Jesus was interrogated.  They fastened the lamb to a wooden post, Jesus was nailed to wood.  The lamb was to be slain at 3 o'clock at which time the priest would declare that it was finished, Jesus died at 3 o'clock saying "It is finished."


Side note: traditions and paganism came up.  Easter egg hunts started as a lesson for children about seek and ye shall find and the scripture where it says even evil fathers give their children bread, not stones, eggs, not scorpions.  And that we have to not give Pagans credit for good things.  Pagans were the first ones to put perfume under their arms!  Pagans were the first one to put plants in their home.  There were some more but it was pretty funny.  I'm not going to stop wearing deoderant just cause pagans invented it... LOL

Also, at the Last Supper, where Jesus washed the disciples feet... That Jesus told Peter he'd have no part of Him if he didn't let Him wash his feet... that we cannot come before Jesus by our own righteousness but much be washed by Him to be accepted.  Another type/shadow of baptism.

Anyways.. fun stuff I learned. (:

Thank you to everyone who prayed for our friend Vincent. He's home from the hospital, doing much better. Apparently it WAS the rare migraine thing, because he started feeling better almost instantly when they gave him that particular medication. So thankful it wasn't one of the other (more severe or life-threatening) possibilities they were guessing at first. Thankful to know the Healer. :)

Mel - It worked perfect! I doubt I'll ever do bacon on the stovetop again. :D
