Lot's to do!

This was a fun-filled weekend. My husband's family reunion was Saturday. We had a good time even though, I hate to admit this, I really didn't want to go. But, after we got there, we really did enjoy it. The food was wonderful and the place where they have the reunion is beautiful. They always have the reunion back in the hills of Southwest Virginia in an old school that has been refurbished. We have to travel - but the scenery is breathtaking. So, I'm glad that we went.

Then, Sunday was Frank's birthday. The congregation sang "Happy Birthday" to him at church (don't know who might have let that slip out - hmmmm)LOL
After church, Alex and Amanda came for lunch - so all three of Frank's kids were with us. It's always such a nice feeling to have all the kids at the table with us. And, my Mom and Dad joined us to celebrate Frank's birthday and Grandparent's Day. Did ya'll know it was Grandparent's Day yesterday??
So, we've had a busy weekend and the week looks pretty full too.

This afternoon, I am going to Alex and Amanda's mother's house to plan Amanda's Bridal shower. Oh, did I mention that Amanda is getting married in October? It's going to be a lovely wedding. So, Robin and I decided to give her a shower. We are going to get our guest list together, decide what to serve, etc. We need to get it done this week because this wedding is coming quickly.

Now, with all this going on, I am still praising God for all His blessings regarding my financial situation. Although I'm not working today - I have some dates marked for future days. He is in control and I'm not going to worry. I would much rather praise Him and spend my days in worship.
Ever notice that "worry" and "worship" start out the same - "wor" but the ending is different making them totally different words. It's kind of that way with us - we can start out in the "wor" part. We can choose to make it "worship" or we can choose to make it "worry" - it all depends on our attitudes. We can have an attitude of worship or we can have an attitude of worry.
Just a little food for thought on a Monday morning.

Blessings for a worship-filled week.

Oh! I loved your thoughts on the 'wor' for worship and worry. I trust Him to provide for you sweet woman!
