Friday five


Time for a quick version of Friday five! 

1.  A lakeside lunch with two cousins, last Saturday.  So much fun to have reconnected now, after all these years!

2.  Seeing God give wisdom every day as we look to Him.  Watching Him give guidance and direction for every day if we will only pay attention.

3.  My favorite lamp being repaired!  It stands by my favorite chair and I rely on it to see my Bible in early morning quiet times, or  occasionally to see needlework of an evening.  Recently it stopped working altogether, but my wonderful hubby was able to find what he needed at Walmart and fixed it in minutes!

4.  Wonderful fellowship yesterday with friends visiting our state all the way from Nevada.  Their first time seeing New England fall foliage, and they loved it!

5.  And the reason this must be quick: Mr. T and I have the opportunity to head out to a couples' retreat this afternoon!

Happy Friday, everyone!

    1. I am so happy also to have that lamp fixed. Now I'm having to remember that I needn't jiggle the switch to get it to turn on.

  7. Regarding your #2: We need to take the effort to recognize at day's end all the ways our Father has led us through the waking hours. It really is amazing all He has done and how much we take His goodness for granted. Enjoy your weekend away!

    1. That is so true, Barbara. It truly is amazing and so awe-inspiring when we pay attention and recognize His hand in our lives every day.

      We did have a wonderful weekend. Refreshing and relaxing, but very challenging too. We attend this retreat every fall and it is a great reset for our marriage and walk with God.
