Right now it is in the death flow 3:32 PM. Carol went to bed to sleep because she works tonight. Josiah and Hannah went to Grand Rapids for the weekend. I have been basically watching our birds and reading my books. I have been in a deep contemplative state today. I have forsaken the world and have found peace in the depths of the Godhead.
I have been reading this afternoon the novel, "Pinkerton's Sister" by Peter Rushforth. I also have been reading "Moral Reflections on the Book of Job" Preface and Books 1-5" by Gregory the Great off and on today. I plan to finish reading Book 5 this evening come hell or high water.
Tomorrow I once again volunteer at the Herrick District Public Library used books store from 10 AM till 1 PM. Carol works tomorrow night so she will be sleeping when I get home from the library book nook tomorrow afternoon.
Well I will close to contemplate the glory of God.
"[12] Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
[13] And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
[14] But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
[15] But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
[16] Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
[17] Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
[18] But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." 2 Corinth. 3:12-18
