You probably notice I don't post much over the weekend.  I just get busy with other things and don't make it a priority.  But that doesn't mean things aren't happening or we aren't learning all the time.

This weekend Ty went on a camp out with his Weeblos pack from early Saturday morning until Sunday afternoon.  It was the first time he was old enough to go without a parent and he had a BLAST!

Maddie and Wes went to help pack up food packets with Tom and the rest of the youth and they got to see some Christian bands play~including House of Thomas, the band from our River of Life Mission Trip retreat.  Wes and his friend Josh have a relationship with the drummer, Brandon~they "talk" to him frequently on Facebook, etc.  So, he got them up on stage to dance with another band and they got free T-shirts.  Wes is usually so reserved, I'd have given anything to see that.

Yesterday was usual church stuff and a Children's Council meeting in the evening.  Tom has Charge Conference on Wednesday and an all day District Meeting today that has been hosted at our church, as the District Supt. asked him to do this.  I will be so relieved on Thursday when he can relax and take a day off!

Today we did the normal work in our Comprehensive and Math Books and Test prep stuff.  It was raining early but I got a walk in with Rocky between storms and now it's sunny.  After lunch, we watched the last Universe of the season, on the future demise of the Sun.  We discussed nuclear fusion and the possibilities to harness it, solar power and how vital it is to life, and how we can see God in all things, even when others can't.  The kids just can't believe it's a coincidence that the earth just "happens" to be in the habital zone of the Solar System, with just the right minerals, pressure, atmosphere, and all the zillions of other things that make our planet able to sustain life.

You know, the Bible discusses this. It says in the first chapter of Romans God leaves his fingerprints throughout nature. Paul discusses how things we see so clearly are "foolishness" to those without the Holy Spirit because they must be spiritually discerned. 

Father, enable me to never worry about what the experts say but to totally lean on the Holy Spirit to to teach me all truth.  Like the sky after the rain, things are crystal clear only when you hold back the curtain of human confusion and flood us with your Sonlight.
