ONE MORE DAY

Jerry is coming home today after 11:00.  Mette is picking him up, and taking with her one of Mitch's jackets as Jerry had no jacket on the ambulance.  This is above and beyond helpful as Mette is a very busy lady. I feel  very sheepish, not picking him up myself.......The last time I drove was bringing him home from the hospital last year.  I honestly hope we do not have to make a yearly trek, but will do if necessary.  I think my job is to get myself used to driving as soon as the roads clear up a bit.  No more procrastinating!  I can...I must do!


My plan for bogging is to blog the lives of interesting Bible people and how God used each one of them. It isn't overly ambitious, and I hope it will be informative.  Some day, God willing, it may be read by someone who has wanted to learn about God and His people.  And in the meantime it gives  me a way to show God that I cherish Him in my life.


Today is the memorial service for Ray Boehlke, a pastor of the Lakeland Methodist Church when we lived in Afton.  We had planned to attend, but will not, although it would have been possible, but just barely, time-wise.  I think we will celebrate our own life today, and be grateful for all those who had been part of it.  Nevertheless, we remember Ray as being instrumental in the days we lived in Afton.


Max will be very glad to  see Jerry.  He was quite disturbed last night, and kept looking at the door waiting for him to come in.  I let him listen to the phone as Jerry spoke to him, and he seemed satisfied.  Aren't dogs intuitive?


This is my blog for today.  No story.  Nothing to learn. Just two people very much in love still, who had to grasp an idea that may some day be truth....one of us will  be left behind....and alone.  I am so grateful that God promises that even after that day, or those days, we will someday, once again, be together enjoying the Lord Jesus in the heavenly places.  There is no down side when you love the Lord, is there?


Thank You, Mette and Mitch,


Jo INMN
