March Seventh & Eighth

 

Luke 13:1-9

Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered, Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners then all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them – do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.

Then he told this parable; A man had a fig tree, planted in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it, but did not find any. So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven't found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?

Sir, the man replied, leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit next year. Fine! If not, then cut it down.

Yesterday was the longest day… Waiting all day for the District manager to come… he was due at 1pm and came on time… it’s just on visit day except getting ready for the visit we can’t start any big projects so makes the day longer… plus I’m still being pulled back and forth between electronics and hardware… I spend so much more time in electronics when there is so much more to be done in hardware… I never did see the district manager as he was in meetings with the store manager… so will find out today how we did… although it’s not really a visit as just his job to check in every week/month… everyone just panics so much more these days compared to back in the day when the district manager came to help and advise… which is still what they do today but I don’t know why everyone gets so stressed… he’ll be coming the next two Thursdays too for training sessions… I’ll be attending the second session…

Since I went in to work early, I got home early, making the evening longer… which should be a good thing, more time to get things done, but I had a headache again… a little one this time, but I am still so tired this week… so I spent too much time on the computer, ate too much before dinner, although dinner was just soup, got son3 done with his homework and in the shower, hubby picked up son2 from college and son3 and I were in bed at 6:30pm, not realizing it was only 6:30pm… we were studying his spelling words and for his geography tests… then we were watching Family Feud with Steve Harvey… hubby and son2 were watching it in the family room… and I was asleep by 9pm…

 

1 Corinthians 10:1-13

For I do not want you to be ignorant of the face, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea. They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They all ate the same spiritual food and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered over the desert.

Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did. Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in pagan revelry. We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did – and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died. We should not test the Lord, as some of them did – and were killed by snakes. And do not grumble, as some of them did – and were killed by the destroying angel.

These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come. So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

This morning I was up by 6:30am, headache gone again… got son3 up and studying for his spelling tests… He is ready for his geography test… Hubby has taken him to school… He’s excited as he gets out an hour early today to go and have his stiches taken out… Son2 is still asleep… I have barely talked to him this week, he is always on his laptop, so I’m kind of ignoring him… I have paid the bills, checked email, checked on Facebook and played My Zoo 2… Hubby is asking what I want for breakfast… I don’t know…

It has been raining… because I turned the sprinklers back on for the spring…

I want to make some cards for Easter…

I need to put some blessings in the jar, I got behind for a couple of weeks…

I have Glee to watch this morning before work or tonight after work…

I want to get off this computer this morning and do some things in the house before work…
