Quiet Weekend

Cough - cough - cough. That is all I am doing. Morning noon and night. I am so tired of coughing. I will be so glad when the allergy season is over with. I guess the next step is allergy shots. Then maybe I can leave the house without suffering afterwards.
Friday I watched Ethan and Eli. We went in the back yard for half and hour and then I suffered the rest of the weekend. But the boys sure did enjoy being outside. Ethan got out Rodgers tools and started digging. He said he was helping Rodger. He said he needed a tractor so he could help Rodger more. Eli just sat in his stroller watching his big brother and laughing. He was having his lunch. He will not eat baby food so at 10 months old he is eating adult foods. His breakfast is yogurt and cheerios. His lunch is a slice of bread and cheese with a banana. He does real good with them. He wouldn't drink his bottle so I put his formula in a sippy cup and added a little strawberry syrup and he drink that down real fast. I enjoy having the boys here and when I don't get to see them I miss them. At church Ethan comes and gives me a big squeeze and tells me he loves me. He is such a charmer and you know he has me wrapped around his finger.
Saturday I stayed indoors because of my allergies and did laundry and vacuumed.
Sunday was church. I worked the nursery during Sunday School and then went to morning services.
The Sermon was - If Jesus was on Face Book would He be your friend? May people are only a Sunday Christian. Through out the week they talk to their friends on Face Book sharing what is going on in their life and asking their advice and help on different things. They spend more time on Face book then they do with Christ. Jesus tells us time and time again that he is our friend. He knows us and loves us (John 2:25), He remains close to us (Proverbs 18:24) , He is our Advocate (1 John 2:1)and our Protector (2 Thess 3:3), He prays for us (John 17:9), and He prepares a place for (John 14:1-4). He is a true friend and He should not be just a Sunday friend. How true this is. How many times do you go to someone for advice instead of God's Word? How many times do you pour out your heart to someone instead of talking to God, and how many times do we let the things of this world take priority in our lives.

And here is how to measure it—the greatest love is shown when people lay down their lives for their friends. You are my friends if you obey me. I no longer call you servants, because a master doesn’t confide in his servants. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me.

John 15:13-15

Have a great day.
