I visited with Clarene this week and she looks beautiful - today is her due date. If she has a girl, she will name her Emma Evelyn and if she has a boy, his name will be Nolan Matthew.
Above is a picture of Clarene and I during our visit this week - doesn't she look beautiful? It's amazing how much pregnancy seems to suit some people.
Also above is a picture of Clarene's other baby - Lola. Lola is finally able to sit in one place for longer than a second - literally!!
So, what have I been reading? I'm still working on "Total Truth" but I finished up some other books - "Pilgrim's Progress" and "Hind's Feet in High Places." I've now got "God is the Gospel" to work through - and I look forward to it because it's a gift from a friend who I respect.
This weekend, I go to a seminar at our church and the speaker is supposed to be quite good. I look forward to using my brain after not having to use it too much this week! One thing I've learned while at Sheridan is the amount of people who simply do not know how to organize or complete a task. Most people I've met here should not hold the positions they do because they are not competent in the least. It's sad really when you think about it because how smoothly, how efficiently, how effectively might a corporation work if the people working in it were great at their jobs and did them honestly and thoroughly? That thought could be translated to the body of Christ. How much more effective and efficient we would be if we only cared about working well and working honestly for God's kingdom. And, it is work. We're here on earth to work and hopefully that work glorifies God.
Well, I'm going to begin to make this posting a regular thing now that summer has commenced. Happy long-weekend!
