Sunday Wife
A genre read situated in Florida about a methodist preacher's wife. She has been married 20 years to the pastor, and was following a dull routine---might I say , "his" routine until she met a free spirit named Augusta .After that Willodean's life changed completely---she began to have different priorities, and it started with her music. She played the dulcimer more for pleasure and a little less for church socials. She met different people, other than staid Methodists. How this plays out makes for a great read. Any comments?

HE's so awesome!
Good morning to all....I am just cleaning out my inbox and my first email is the section 234 of the bible...any other subscriber to these scriptures can relate,,,and I felt His Presence pulling at my attention but I was sorely distracted while I was reading....mentally, that is...so I just scrolled to the end of the scripture and the last verse: 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new
covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: 31:32
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the
day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of
Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto
them, saith the LORD: 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will
make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I
will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts;
and will be their God, and they shall be my people., really stood out to me for I had to reflect briefly on His promise with me and the place where I am now in my life. Then I saw the link to discuss this scripture and I clicked it. Again I began to speedread by scrolling down the page and then, bam, in bold letters, James 1:12
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life......jumped out at me.....the distraction was a temptation and I thank Him for answering my prayers for Him to keep my mind on Him...Have a blessed day on this journey
