They make chocolate here I think. Or maybe Collies. My sister would know which.

CABRAS CASTLE

Cabras Castle is actually a high end hotel. My daughter and I got to stay in the stables.

It’s bigger on the inside than on the outside and the owner spends time.

This was one of my favorite summer stops when I was a kid.

Morning Direction From Scripture 11-3-16

The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars;
    the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes Lebanon’s mountains skip like a calf;
    he makes Mount Hermon[b] leap like a young wild ox.
7 The voice of the Lord strikes
    with bolts of lightning.
8 The voice of the Lord makes the barren wilderness quake;
    the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the Lord twists mighty oaks[c]
    and strips the forests bare.
In his Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!” Psalm 29:5-9

Why are the people in the temple shouting “Glory”?

Evening Meditation 11-2-16

The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars;
    the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes Lebanon’s mountains skip like a calf;
    he makes Mount Hermon[b] leap like a young wild ox.
7 The voice of the Lord strikes
    with bolts of lightning.
8 The voice of the Lord makes the barren wilderness quake;
    the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the Lord twists mighty oaks[c]
    and strips the forests bare.
In his Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!” Psalm 29:5-9

If you had no idea what glory was what would you think it was just from looking at these verses?

Share Your World 2016 Week#44

I can hardly believe that there are only eight weeks left to 2016. Wow! Where did that year go? Well I know where the fall has gone. This fall has been an incredible time of outreach starting back in August with the Special Touch North East Getaway. In September we participated in the Toy Town Fall Festival. October was C.cada’s 6th annual art show. Last weekend was Trunk Or Treat and this weekend we have special guests Charlie Chivers and Frank Cacich coming to host the first North East Special Touch Disability Friendly Church Training Conference and then on Sunday Watoto African Children’s Choir is ministering at our church! We have outreached literally thousands of people with the message of Jesus this Fall!

The work of pastoring has kept me from the work of writing but as always I come back to the writing desk to help me find my center. Answering Cee’s weekly questions at SHARE YOUR WORLD is one way that I do that.

Here are Cee’s questions for this week and my answers.

What was your favorite subject in school?

English. I always dreamed of being a writer.

If you could have a servant come to your house every day for two hours, what would you have them do?

Paint and handyman jobs. I have a ton of those just waiting for me to get some time.

Where did you live when you were in the third grade of school?  Is it the same place or town you live now?

I live in the same house we moved to when I was in third grade. I have moved away and back several times now.

In your opinon, list some places that are great for shopping?

I love Kohl’s, Barnes & Noble, Target and Sears

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up? 

I am grateful that we had a very successful Trunk or Treat. Nearly 500 people came out to the event at our church and over 300 came to hear the gospel preached that night.

my boss.

Me preaching the pumpkin gospel.

I am excited that this weekend we will have the double blessing of hosting the Disability Friendly Church Training Conference and Watoto Children’s Choir.
