Monday Coffee Talk

Bible Trivia:

William Tyndale produced first printed edited of the New Testament in English. He was later burned at the stake for his efforts.

***

Adam’s name is from the Hebrew word 

'a da ma', which means “the ground.”

Today's Poem:

Did God Speak To You?

The man whispered "God, speak to me"

And a meadowlark sang.

But the man did not hear.

So the man yelled "God speak to me!"

And the thunder rolled across the sky.

But the man did not listen.

The man looked around and said "God let me see you"

And a star shone brightly.

But the man did not notice.

And the man shouted "God show me a miracle"

And a life was born.

But the man did not know.

So, the man cried out in despair.

"Touch me God and let me know that you are here!"

Whereupon God reached down and touched the man.

But the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.

Moral:

Don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way you expect.

Around Town:

A year or so ago a new restaurant opened in our little town.  It was a big hit because they serve what I call 'plate lunches.'  It was just what we needed because we mostly have fast food or Mexican food, a Barbecue place and a couple of seafood restaurants.  Unfortunately, they weren't open long before it caught fire and burned. Good news, after many months of rebuilding they are now open again.  Mr D and I went Saturday and enjoyed a good meal.  I had the fried mushroom appetizer, and they were delicious.

On The Porch:

I thought I had lost this plant, it was so big and pretty last year, maybe 4ft tall.  There was also one on the front porch the same size.  That one didn't make it through the winter, now the porch looks naked.  {{sigh}} But this one on the back porch is sprouting new growth and that makes me happy.

Closing Thought

Until Next Time
