God is supreme and God is sovereign. I am pondering what this means. I know after thinking about it for years, it has brought me peace. Peace because I know that I am not in control. Peace because I realize that salvation is not in my hands. Not that this stops me from evangelizing, but gives me peace in it.
It's too late for me to be thinking so deep. Today I made homemade oatmeal chocolate chip cookies from a really neat cookbook called
The Great Country Inns of America Cookbook. As random as it is, I think my next project is to make some lentil soup.
Anyway, I decided to make the cookies to give to my neighbors. I want to
literally be a good neighbor, but I don't think I have been. So the plan is to write sweet notes with my name and cell # on it in case they ever need any thing--with cookies attached. Someone recently did that to my grandma, and her being a single widow, was really blessed by that. I hope it blesses my neighbors, even more so, I hope I actually complete this project and deliver it to them. If I run out of cookies I can always make some chocolate covered pretzels which is really easy. I think I like to cook at heart.
Well, I think I have about 45 minutes of work for Campus Harvest Missions to do, plus dishes, before I go to sleep. I am afraid I will sleep in tomorrow. I can't, and I really hope I don't. I don't have good sleep patters, but I really enjoy staying up late doing things. That can prove to be unfortunate, especially when I accidentally sleep in.
Lindsay got in town tonight! Wahoo! I'm really excited to spend some time with her. She is such a great friend. I think she just
gets me which is so refreshing. She not only
gets me, but she loves me and even more so she loves Jesus.
There is someone I know who can give the most sincere compliments and when they give them to me I am so blessed by them. They are usually complimenting me on being compassionate and feminine. I like that. Thank you for that person, Lord. Please encourage and bless them.
Okay. I think I could get used to this blogging thing. I know it's not to interesting to the reader, but it is pretty therapeutic. Anyways, if you see this, pray for me.
Love*
