and terribly dirty floors...
But, I was excited to learn that paint is on sale at Agri Center. Buy one get one free! Gotta love sales fair!
Texture goes on today!
I got to go out on a date with Dave last night. All the way to Madison! We picked up a waffle cone iron for Dave's. And then we went out to eat. Of all of the choices in Madison guess what we picked? Pizza! I know, that is crazy. We ate at The Roman Candle. The food was good, and I liked the atmosphere. The waiter was awkwardly funny. It was a nice time. Seems like we've spent lots of time together on trips like that in the last 12 months.
So yesterday I was reading Luke chapter 10. At the end of the chapter Jesus is at Martha's house. Martha seems to be doing what all of us women do when we have company... get busy serving. You know how that looks. Her sister Mary on the other hand just sit's at Jesus' feet and listens to him. So Martha starts complaining to Jesus about how she is doing all of the work by herself and here is how the chapter ends: "Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed-or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her."
Wow. Did that speak to my heart. It might as well say "Carrie, Carrie..."
I know many friends suffer from this, and when there is much to be done it feels like there is no time to sit and read God's word and pray. No time just to be in the presence of Jesus and not distracted by all of the stuff going on in life.
But we need it, and we are better for it.
