    This is the day. (And a Sabbath Scripture…)

    We’re snuggled together again on couches on a Sunday morning.  Five families and a crazy number of beautiful, energetic children.  Our bibles are open to the book of Acts and we’re reading together: “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands.  And He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything because He Himself gives all men life and breath and everything else.  From one man He made every nation of men that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined the times set for them and the…
