Miscellaneous tidbits today. Nothing seemed to come together, so that's what you'll be getting: a "bara-bara" report.
Last week's beach picnic at the was rained out. But one happy result was that one of the toddlers that visited church stayed for the games that were scheduled at the church afterwards since we couldn't go out, and she ended up getting very attached to the pastor's wife! Maybe she'll come back again and keep coming until she's old enough to understand and accept the Gospel for herself!
My sister invited me to watch women's volleyball on her TV. Leaving the apartment yesterday evening to go down to Joyce's, I'd said to my husband, "Tonight's game is with Poland (one of its players is 6'8"!). Expect me to come home crying; I'm pretty sure we're going to lose." Surprise, surprise: we won 3 sets to 1!
I had a mini sketchbook I always carry with me plus a tiny eraser. Joyce let me use her pencil to get a drawing of one of the players.
(Didn't I just recently write about expecting a blessing?) I was expecting to lose?!
After tonight's volleyball game (we lost), I was shown a 30-min. documentary about orangutans. I was really glad for these, because I thought my timed drawing of a primate turned out pretty good until I realized I'd done only the head; and needed to do the rest of the body too!
Someone I know very well thinks she's doing a good job thinking about Christ the Head. While this may be indispensable, she needs to remember it is definitely incomplete without the Body, the Church...
