Last Sunday re-Set of May

Sooo, Stupid me did a  'Wonder Woman' move by lifting a full tub of books to store in the basement...and YES, I've jacked my back up a bit. It's quite sore, but more annoying than anything. [sigh]

Psalm 84 (HCSB)
Longing for God’s House

1 How lovely is Your dwelling place,
Lord of Hosts.
2 I long and yearn
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and flesh cry out for[a] the living God.

3 Even a sparrow finds a home,
and a swallow, a nest for herself
where she places her young—
near Your altars, Lord of Hosts,
my King and my God.
4 How happy are those who reside in Your house,
who praise You continually.Selah

5 Happy are the people whose strength is in You,
whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,[b]
they make it a source of springwater;
even the autumn rain will cover it with blessings.[c]
7 They go from strength to strength;
each appears before God in Zion.

8 Lord God of Hosts, hear my prayer;
listen, God of Jacob.Selah
9 Consider our shield,[d] God;
look on the face of Your anointed one.

10 Better a day in Your courts
than a thousand anywhere else.
I would rather be at the door of the house of my God
than to live in the tents of wicked people.
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield.
The Lord gives grace and glory;
He does not withhold the good
from those who live with integrity.
12 Happy is the person who trusts in You,
Lord of Hosts!

After church we went to our normal lunch drive thru of Lee's original chicken sliders...not sure exactly ''when'' we started this tradition, but it takes the guess work out of what we're having AND it's quick & easy.

A very small Kroger shopping adventure after lunch to use specific coupons on meat & frozen veggies...🤔 thinking 🤔 I'm the only person I know already fall/winter planning !!

Rolled whatever  🠋 caused 🠋
