Monday Coffee Talk

Morning temps in the low 60's . . . so refreshing! 

Cool weather has finally made it to my porch!  Saturday morning was wonderful as I sat in my swing, light sweater around my shoulders, sun shining, and a hot cup of coffee in my hand.

We’ve had several mornings like that, and now they’re gone.  Temps back in the 80’s this week.

With that said, cool fronts are starting to drift in, and the hot heat of the summer is gone.

I watched some great sermons from the following pastors yesterday.  They all delivered a great message.

Pastor Jack Hibbs - Calvary Chapel Chino Hills

Pastor Allen Jackson -  World Outreach Church® in Murfreesboro, Tennessee

Pastor David Jeremiah - senior pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church, a Southern Baptist megachurch located in El Cajon, California.

Pastor John Hagee – Senior pastor of Cornerstone Church, San Antonio, Texas

Pastor Jerry Harmon - Senior Pastor of Grace Bible Baptist Church, Catonsville, MD

I know it’s best to be in a home church and enjoy being part of a church family.  Sometimes health issues prevent that from happening, I am so thankful for televised church services that fill me with God’s Word.

 

I finished this small cross stitch since my last post. He was fun to do and very easy, just the way I like it. He’s on the shelf where he can see me everyday as I stay busy at my desk.

Psalm 37:4

Delight yourself also in the Lord,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

Such a wonderful word from God.

Until Next Time

Post Script:

Delighting yourself in the Lord means making God your deepest joy — not a duty, but a genuine pleasure — and letting that intimacy reshape what your heart wants.

Monday Coffee Talk

 

It was such a pretty day we decided to get out and get some things done.

First stop, the beauty shop where I got a long overdue hair cut.  Feels so good.

Then on to Walgreens, where we both got our flu shots. ouch!

And we rewarded ourselves with seafood, catfish for him and shrimp for me.

We then drove through Lomax and made our way home.

Tracey and Scott came for a visit one day last week and brought us some of their left-overs! Spaghetti and Red Lobster biscuits.  It was sooooo yummy.

I'm still working on my cross-stitch project, it will be finished soon.  I've also started a new diamond art picture; it's a pumpkin with colorful fall flowers all around. I hope to finish both of them in time for my next post, when I'll share pictures.

Today's Thought:

Be as happy as a seagull with a French fry!

Family News:

Maegan has been busy in the kitchen!

I MADE MY VERY FIRST SOURDOUGH!

And when I say made, I mean MADE.

This was not “mix some ingredients and bake it.” This was basically a multi-day relationship with flour and water, lots of sticky messes and more than one roll of paper towels. Made completely from scratch with a starter I grew myself!!!

I didn't get a piece of this batch, but I hear it was yummy.

Around Town:

Our little town has a new City Hall.  I didn't think it was necessary, but I wasn't ask my opinion! lol

They're already tearing down the old building.

Something is always changing.😐

Bible In A Year:

We are reading in the Book of Esther. Very inspiring.

Queen Esther’s essence in one breath: She is the quietly courageous Jewish queen who risked her life to save her people, stepping into danger with humility, wisdom, and the famous resolve: “If I perish, I perish.”

Her story embodies courage, faith, and purpose — a reminder that God often works through quiet, steady hearts positioned “for such a time as this.”

Until Next Time
