My dear one,
I watched the Ken Ham/Bill Nye debate tonight. It gave me a renewed love for God's beautiful and mysterious creation and a renewed hunger for the Scriptures. The gospel was proclaimed and God received the glory. (By the way, my continued reading of Stephen Meyer's Signature in the Cell has been very thought-provoking and awe-inspiring ... the detail to which the Master Artist has shaped and molded living things is incredible!) An elderly lady who lives in my apartment building and rides to church with me came over and watched the debate with me on my computer. 'Twas nice to have the company.
Sunday evening I visited with other neighbors in my building for a "Stupor Bowl party." It was quite hilarious. The five of us sat munching our chips and chili dip in relative silence: three playing SET, the other two watching lacrosse of all things. Yes, we're pretty counter-cultural! So thankful to have like-minded friends.
Saturday morning I attended the memorial service for a dear friend. It was such a sweet time of worship and praise. I proceeded to spend that afternoon reading for the first time the book he published about a year ago - words of wisdom and counsel that provided fresh perspective on my calling as a Christian artist. I will treasure the years I spent learning from that man, and my heart overflows to think that the godly legacy he left will continue to instruct me and so many others. Sweetheart, I truly hope that you have mentors in your life who encourage you and point you in the right direction.
I must end these ramblings now, for tomorrow morning will be an early one - time for the weekly breakfast "book club" meet-up!
Sleep well, my dear one.
