Wisdom of Age

"When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. ”
John 8

I came across this verse this morning in our bible study in John. It struck me that it really tied to Fred's blog yesterday about how we have changed over the years.

The commentary in my study bible says that "age and experience often tempers us". This is why the oldest accusers left first, as they knew they were not without sin. The younger accusers had a harder time giving up being "self righteous" and judgemental.

Scripture says that we begin to change when we accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, and if we grow in the Lord, he refines us and grows us through challenge and triumph; through blessings and trials; through experience and HIS consistency we become wiser to what is really important.

I am not saying we are OLD, or have ARRIVED!...I am saying that we are learning HIS way daily... and we can hardly wait for tomorrow to see what the Lord has for us to learn...

His Mercies ARE new every morning!

The "Queen Bee" Has Hives!

What the heck is this?????I woke up last Thursday with a "rash" on my knee....No big deal....but 6 days later this thing had spread like Ebola....eeeeek!!!

I have had hives before and Dr Julie has given me a prescription...but this time the cream did not work and I got worse and worse.... So by Thursday I went in to Dr. Burden my dermatologist covered from stem to stern with itchy, blotchy red spots (oooops TMI!).

She gave me two prescriptions that are helping slowly, we still do not know the cause.

I am working tomorrow, so I am praying to be delivered tonight....

That's all for now...I have to go find a wire brush....(oooops TMI again!)

As Fred always says....."If you got the itch...I've got the scratch!". ( I think he means money)

That's all for now
Love, the Queen B

Un-Retired!!!

For two years, I have been praying about getting a part time job...I have always loved hospital gift shops. My favorite is one called "Lori's" in a new hospital near our old house in Stone Oak.

Well I started Monday....long story on how I got the job....I work with three other women...and after my first week of training, I love it!...

I will work 10-15 hours per week so I can keep up with my bible studies, and my traveling schedule.

It was a little strange getting back into the work world after 6 years, but I already know that being in a hospital is a great opportunity to minister to hurting people.

Keep me and them in your prayers....
