glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Come to Calvary's holy mountain It is 2:23 PM Friday afternoon HERE in West Michigan. It is 47 degrees and sunny this afternoon. Someone said today it feels like the first day of Spring. It is Good Friday and it is a day to remember the blood shed on Calvary. I got up this morning around 7:07 AM. When I came upstairs I found my wife reading her ESV Bible. I took my morning pills, at a banana and then made a pot of oatmeal for breakfast. After breakfast Carol read 'The Valley of Vision' and then we had a season of prayer before the Cross of Christ. Carol left to help fold church bulletins around 9:15 AM and I left to volunteer at the Book Nook around 9:40 AM. Today the Book Nook was not busy so I mainly wandered the store and read from a novel titled, 'The Hive' by Camilo Jose Cela Translated By James Womack. At the Book Nook today I bought one used paperback for my library titled, 'Reporting Vietnam: American Journalism 1959-1975' Introduction by Ward Just Foreword by Milton J. Bates [Library of America]. When I got home from the Book I ate lunch and then wrote in my paper diary. I am tired as usual. Last night I read late into the night from a book titled, 'The Letters Of William Gaddis' Edited By Steven Moore Afterword By Sarah Gaddis. I will close to drift. It will soon be time to kiss it all good-bye. Come to Calvary’s holy mountain, Come in poverty and meanness, Come in sorrow and contrition, He that drinks shall live forever; 2:40 p.m. - 2023-04-07 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
