Theological Term of the Week: Suspended Until Later

 

 

I’m going to be busy with some projects other than blogging for next few weeks, so I’ve decided to put the weekly theological term posts on hold until shortly after Christmas.  I’ve finished (I think!) all the terms dealing with scripture that I planned to define. (If you can think of one that I obviously missed, please let me know.) When I start things up again in January, I’m moving to the subject of God. I have a couple of terms suggested to me that fit that category and I’m open to lots more suggestions.

A Thankful November: Books

I love it when a package with a book arrives in the mail, like one did today.

 

What would I do without books? I keep one handy in my purse for passing time while I wait for service, like this morning when I had my winter tires put on the car. I keep several around the house for passing time during the commercial and the boring spots while I’m watching television.

 

Once in a while, I even read one when I’m not just passing time. They’re good for that, too.

 

Other thankful folk

• Ann is thankful for acts of kindness.
  
• Kim is thankful for assurance and meetings that go well.
• Carla is thankful for the critters.
• Connie is thankful that organizations like Desiring God are getting involved in adoption related ministries.
• Kim is thankful that her brother is going to be okay and that she can usually take some things (like thumbs) for granted.
• Tulipgirl is thankful “that the Lord has given me peace to just be in each day, loving my family, not speculating about the future.”  I say amen to that one: When circumstances are tough, peace to cherish each day is one of the great gifts from the Lord.
