With seven items on my Now page for July I’ve overcomitted myself. One is more an approach then task. Better that than not have any goals set, right?
I did the list also in Portuguese, wrote it in my little notebook, and will also record it in my agenda/journal. Plenty of exposure so as not to forget.
Made big progress today on the magazine, and wrote a good bit on the first book (1).
¶ Baked donuts are not real donuts. Even if they have chocolate. Just to set the record straight.
¶ Rereading L.G. Thomas’s little book on prayer. Quite a good little work. See quote below from it. Also started Don Ruhl’s book, Thinking About God.
¶ A quote: “The heart that was meant for a temple may become a thoroughfare for the traffic of business. That is the real meaning of ‘profane.’ … It may take time and patience to shut the world out, to become quiet enough to hold communion with God” (p. 42).
¶ News of Don Ruhl’s death was disturbing. We hadn’t communicated in a while, so it was quite a shock.
¶ An original verse:
Of all the foods that one could eat, it’s bacon
That has them beat by a mile ─ there’s no mistakin’!
¶ A Bible verse, as the Last Word: “If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he will also deny us” 2Timothy 2.12 NETB.
