I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonderful deeds. Psalm 9:1
What does it look like when you do something with “all your heart?”

The Old Homestead
God works all things for good for those who love Him. (Romans 8:28)
I was very fortunate growing up to have had a mother and father who loved me and my sisters very much and did all that they could to prepare us for the lives we would lead. My mother’s family was strongly Catholic, while my dad was a non-practicing Protestant. In those days, the Catholic Church would not marry a Catholic with a non-Catholic in the church proper. So my parents got married in the church vestibule. In addition, they both had to agree to raise any children they might as Catholics. So, I grew up in the Catholic Church. I was an altar boy and a part of the CYC (Catholic Youth Council). I was baptized, had my First Communion, and was confirmed. I then attended Holy Cross, a Catholic college run by Jesuit…

Morning Direction From Scripture 6-8-16
Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory
in the heavens.
2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?[c]
5 You have made them[d] a little lower than the angels[e]
and crowned them[f] with glory and honor.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their[g] feet:
7 all flocks and herds,
and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky,
and the fish in the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth! Psalm 8
Why do you think this Psalm about the greatness of man begins and ends with praise to God?

Is the description in verse 6-8 a future thing or a now thing? What does that mean for now? What does that mean for the future?

Where do you think man sits in the created order of things? How does that challenge how you think about yourself?

Share Your World 2016 Week 23
Holy Cow! I posted Share Your World week 21 last night thinking that was the latest, and here I am reading posts from week 23. Am I out of the loop or what?!? Well it’s time to come out of the past and step into the present. So here for your reading pleasure is my time of sharing my answers to Cee’s week 23 questions. Maybe sometime in the future I will go back and answer questions from week 22 just for fun!
What was one of your first moneymaking jobs (other than babysitting or newspaper delivery)?
My father owned a diner in our hometown; So one of my first jobs was dish washing, but dad was big on personal responsibility and earning your own way and so I actually started delivering papers when I was nine. I had 126 daily papers. I think that job in some ways was harder than dish washing. I have to say I loved paper delivery so much I went back to it as an adult and ran two circulation offices before becoming a Pastor.
What is your favorite month of the year?
November.
What three things in nature do you find most beautiful?
I love the ocean, waterfalls and gardens.
Amanda at Torc Waterfall
The falls in the rock close
Joe at the waterfall
List at least five of your favorite spices? (excluding salt and pepper)
I am a big fan of basil. I love oregano and garlic. I also love cumin and corriander.
Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
Since I already used the vacation thing on week 21 I guess I will have to get a little more specific. I am so glad I got to read two books in the fantasy series I am currently working my way through.
This week I am looking forward to meeting with my friends from the Winchendon Enhancement Comittee and beginning to plan the Fall Fest and the programming that will go on the soon to be acquired Ingleside property which has been two years in the works.
