Breakfast: Make a Joyful Noise

A Big Ball of Twine



After months of a recovery that has left many quite impatient, this week's news should prevent all of us from being silent about God's grace. Adam is making progress on his way to a full recovery. It may not be at the speed any of us would choose, but it is happening. Make a joyful noise!

Ever go on a long road trip, with the goal to reach family, friends, a vacation resort, or osther desirable destination? You could loathe the trip getting there, or you could have fun along the way. You know, make it fun to stop at Wall Drug and Mt. Rushmore. Make the journey as fun as the destination. Metaphorically speaking, this week we stopped at the world's largest twine ball.

Why do I use this analogy? I am confident that most would not schedule a stop at the worlds' largest ball of twine. However, if you happened to be passing by Darwin, Minnesota, and took the time to see the ball, you would say, "That is a big ball of twine!" Likewise, the phone lines may not be lighting up with Adam's progress this week, but if you took time to stop and think about it, you would say, "That is major progress!"

Read Amy's post, (Speech Is Just A Matter Of Time!!!!). Think about it for a few minutes. Meditate on God's healing power. Meditate on His gift of hope for Adam, and for all of us. Enjoy the journey to Adam's full recovery.

1 Kings 8:66

"On the following day he sent the people away. They blessed the king and then went home, joyful and glad in heart for all the good things the LORD had done for his servant David and his people Israel."

Let's pray together, again, at lunch time.
