Family Night

We have family night on the weekends for our family. Every Saturday night, we have family dinner. We have "christianized" the Jewish Sabbath dinner except we celebrate it on Saturday evenings. What I finally realized it part of the meal is a celebration of communion. We have a toast of grape juice/wine and a breaking of the bread with every meal. Every Saturday dinner when we celebrate Sabbath dinner we are celebrating communion, remembering what Jesus did for us on the cross, His sacrifice.

Tonight, we are watching a great family movie, "Dreamer." It is a movie about a horse. I haven't watched a finer family movie in some time. We rented the movie from Blockbuster. I am in the mood to buy the movie and have it as a regular movie in our family movie library. I highly recommend "Dreamer" for your family movie night.

Trust and Faith

This past month has been quite amazing. A lot has happened since the last time I wrote. This time of month always seems to be busy anyhow, it is the month of birthdays, 4 birthdays in one week, 5 birthdays in 2 weeks. And, all of thisd within one immediate family. Whew!

On top of all of this, work is getting very busy. I have put in a couple of 12 hours days now and with more on their way in a short while. Schematics are starting to pile on top of one another. The good thing for me is work has decided to give me a laptop to I can work at the store and at of course at home! Oh, boy!

But last all of is the amazing thing which has happened to me this week. Jesus has given me the same word within the same week, do you think He might be wanting to tell me something? I am trying to understand what He is wanting to tell me or learn from what He is telling me.

"I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly." John 10:10. He gave me this verse on Sunday during church and today the same exact verse from the devotional I get on the internet.

It is interesting especially what my family is going through at the time. It is a matter of trust and faith on my part in his word.
