I'm going to try this diligence thing once again.  We'll see how it goes :)

Today was a fun filled day starting with a great church service from Matthew 7.  A continuation of last weeks sermon about not trying to take the speck of sawdust out of your eye until we've taken the log out of our own eye, along with this came the advice about knowing when and how to correct. We talked about wounded hearts and trust this morning as well..hmm...sound familiar?

After church some friends came over and we chit chatted for awhile and I threw together a yummy meal of scalloped potatoes, steamed pumpkin and meatloaf.  I love having the time to cook and enjoy the cooler weather brought on by the rain and clouds of the day. 

Crystal and I watched a few episodes of HOUSE and are now setteling in to read email, chat with family, check up on fb and eventually get back to schoolwork.

I continue to ponder my blessings and think of all the things I'm thankful for and that I take for granted.  I am thankful that I still have parents and grandparents and all my siblings, thankful that I have clean drinking water, a Bible in my mother tongue, an education, a great church and the list goes on.
God is good all the time and I think it is important to reflect upon the many blessings he has given us.  All too often it is easy to find something to fuss about.  What are you grateful for today?
