glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Christ is the source of grace It is in the ongoing death flow 9:23 AM Tuesday morning here in southwest Michigan. Outside it is snowing and gray. On the ground is a layer of ice and snow today. I was thinking of doing some more raking today, but now that seems an idle dream. This morning I got up around 6 o'clock AM. I expected Carol to be home by 6:30 AM because this morning she has to drive her sister-in-law Gail to Grand Rapids, but she got home around 7:05 AM. She plans to get up at 11 o'clock AM and drive over to Freedom Village to pick Gail. Today Caro's brother Dave and his wife Gail find out from their doctor how advance the cancer has spread in Dave's body. Dave was suppose to go with Gail and Carol but he is now to weak to travel. They had rented a special van to take Dave, but now it is not in the plan. I have been having one of those morning where I am constantly finding to keep my eyes open. I just want to fall into a dream state. What I should do is go for a brisk walk around the neighborhood. But what I do is go sit in the living room and doze like an old man. Sad to watch my slide into old age. I am a old fat bald man becoming stiff and out of focus. This morning I made myself oatmeal for breakfast. After I ate my mush I wrote in my paper diary and read from these books for morning devotions- 'John 1-12' New Testament IV Reformation Commentary On Scripture Edited By Craig S. Farmer 'Reformed Preaching: Proclaiming God's Word from the Heart of the Preacher to the Heart of His People' by Joel R. Beeke I will quote from 'John 1-12' Reformation Commentary on Scripture as an example of Reformed preaching- It is now 9:53 AM Tuesday morning. I will close to get a fresh cup of coffee and try to not asleep on this cold snowy day. 9:55 a.m. - 2018-11-20 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
