Above are flowers from the monastery this past weekend.
A lovely Romanian man was given them from
where they adorned the large icon
of the Dormition of the Theotokos.
I sold about 65 of my books today.
It was a new experience to let go of books
that had with me for
some years.
*
I just had to keep reminding myself
that though I have given away the books that remind me
of how God has worked in my life
and that He is bringing me deeper in
where He seeks to lead me.
*
The books were merely part of that journey
and that God is here with me now
and has given me a new chapter in my life,
where and what I need to go towards.
*
Am reading more of The Jesus Prayer
and am really appreciating this book.
*
I can't recommend this book enough...
I was at a small lake with family tonight.
*
Had tea and lunch at an Aunt's house.
**
I treasure these days and feel strongly that they are fleeting.
***
We must pray for those we love and for God's mercy
and salvation.
*
How much we are in need of God's mercy.
