Sit it out Saturday

Well, I did a little shopping, not nearly enough, and visited my baby boy bird to see his tree. He is so proud of his little two room apartment and with good reason. It is really sweet.

On a writing note, I have done none. I am totally ashamed.

12 days left until the book comes out. Time is going way slow!

Rejoice

Psalm 31:7

I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;

The word rejoice is defined as to feel joy or great delight. The psalmist tells God that he rejoices or feels joy and great delight in the mercy of God. The Psalmist knows that God owes him nothing but yet God still provides. God still considers his soul in times of trouble. God still will help the psalmist… Continue
