contemplativeI had a normal day thus far. I left for the library book nook around 9:45 AM and got home around 1:15 PM. When I got home from the book nook I ate lunch and wrote in my paper diary.
I spent the afternoon hours today reading my new book titled, “The Love of God: A Canonical Model” by John C. Peckham. Not much else happened today.
This evening I will wander my cell and go to bed early. Tomorrow starts a new week and we will be in the middle of the month.
I should mentioned our second son Josiah called this evening to wish his Dad a Happy Birthday. We love our three children/their mates/our three grandchildren. It is a blessing to have family members that all love one another. It is a blessing knowing and experiencing the love of God the Lord Jesus Christ. I remember these words from the Epistle of Romans, “And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” Romans 5:5.
I suppose I will close.
I forgot to mention that Beth, Andy, and Louisa sent me a Amazon gift card as a birthday gift. I bought with this birthday gift card these items from Amazon.
