pure heart and steadfast spirit

Writing this note from Dallas sitting with our grandson. So this note may not make any sense! Hope your week has been filled with adventures and blessings!

Another happening Saturday around the center. Visits to our friends who live outside was nice. Some drama with Robert and Brad going on, but that is nothing new! Pretty quiet at the other camps. Did get some good news, Tex from the macaroni camp has moved inside. Lots of activity with the children was happening all morning long.

Monday brought the beginning of the installation of our new floor. Wednesday they completed the flooring. It looks great. Thanks to Carl and Lisa for making it all happen.

Tuesday evening, Rickie led our discussions at our mens Bible fellowship reading from Psalm 51: 1-10. King David realizing he had strayed from his path, asked God for forgiveness. David knew where his strength came from and only God could give what he was desiring. We all can learn from David.

Our afternoon activities are going great. Lots of good help making learning fun.

Was out of town Thursday, so can't report on our evening. Others will have to do that.

Prayers for my wife this morning as she is having her surgery. Prayers for our son and our daughter-in-law as they prepare to give birth to our granddaughter this morning. Prayers for those traveling.

In  verse 10 in our discussions on Tuesday night, David asked God to create in me a pure heart and renew a steadfast spirit within me. In our humanness, our hearts are full of pride, jealousy, judgmental. On our own we can not take away those traits without God stepping in.

We must strive to allow God to take over our hearts in order that we lvoe unconditional. As we move along in our walks, real change, will only come when we allow God to take over our hearts. There will be no division between people only lvoe will abound.

The last part of the verse, David asks for a steadfast spirit within me. It is truly amazing, God lvoes us so much, he has given each one us a part of Him. He knew we were weak in our flesh, so He has provided away for us to walk a straight path. His Spirit is in our hearts ready to guide and instruct us in our ways. We just need to let go and let the Holy Spirit lead us. Something so very simple, we make it so complicated. Amen

It has taken 3 hours to write this short note, with lots of help from our grandson! Not responsible for anything that might be out or order!

Hope your week is full of joy and surprises! God is good and waiting on us to let go.
