The Oxford Movement

It is 2:56 PM Wednesday afternoon here in West Michigan. It has been raining off and on all day. It is 64 degrees and feels like Spring heat. I am sure this warm rain will cause plants to bud.

I got up this morning around 7:15 AM. I got up and found Carol dressed and ready to go. She had gotten up around 5:30 AM. Carol cooked breakfast and we ate. After breakfast we had morning devotions and prayed. After prayer I wrote in my paper diary and read from these two books for devotions-

'Gregory the Great-Moral Reflections on the Book of Job' Volume 6 Books 28-35

'The Life of Jesus Christ' Part Two Volume 1, Chapters 1-57 by Ludolph of Saxony

Carol left this morning to do errands. When she got home I suggest we go out for lunch, get hamburgers. So we went to Carver's and then after lunch we visited local thrift stores to search for used books. I found these used books this morning at Salvation Army thrift store and Northside Bible's For Mexico Thrift Store-
