The absolute BEST part of the move, is that like Cedar City - again we found - and were invited to - attend a certain church! We took up the invitation and have been attending Eagle Christian Church, in Eagle Idaho (about 15 miles away from the house).
This Sunday past, pastor Jacob, gave a teaching on the passage in Matthew 28:11. I derived so much inspiration from it, and need to resist my compulsion, to try to retell his whole teaching, but will say in essence an important point for the two of us.
Since coming to Idaho, we have both been working on landscaping and gardening around the house; along with setting it up for potential guests. There's a certain time, when those things will either be done, or need little maintenance, and what do we do after?! To answer that, it will be only determined by the things that Jesus commissions, as He has promised his "load is easy" and His burden is light!
At the present, we spend a lot of time getting to know our neighbors, praying for them, and getting active in the local 4-H organization. While I don't have any full time jobs these days, I still find myself pressed for time, in trying to be productive in photography, graphic arts, needleworks, and calligraphy! So I struggle still, after 50 some years to do what Jesus commissions me to do!!But I don't give up, and I apologize for being so hardheaded!
Anyways, I have more ahead, and I will run to receive the prize - IN HIM!
Good days to y'all
Jesus is loving us, living with us, and coming back soon!!
