TGIF; Not Really:

Happy Friday to all of you as I believe that you will be saying "TGIF" but for me, its only the 3rd day of my work week, seeing that I am off on Monday and Tuesday's. 

I took a picture yesterday from the main doors of our church entitled, "Is It Spring Yet." 

As you can see, even the driveway where folks are dropped off is snow covered again. The latest forecast says that another foot of snow is likely between tomorrow (Saturday-Tuesday). Just about a week ago, there were those saying that we were having a mild winter. But; this is New England and the weather can change in a very, very short time. 

We will just have to hunker down and deal with it; 

We have a home visitation planned for tomorrow, (Saturday) and of course, Sunday Service, so I hope that the weather will cooperate, without too many issues. 

Heading out this morning to do a weekly visit to a nursing home in the local area, then off to have prayer with a woman's sister who is on Hospice. Praying that the Lord will give her a healing touch. 

So many people have been sidelined with sickness this winter, but we believe that the Lord is still the "Great Physician," and will touch each and everyone of them. 

I will try to send out a blog update over the weekend, but if that does not happen; stay safe and keep off the roads, if you can, this weekend and into early next week. 

Blessings to all:

The Day After

"The Day After"

Well; its Monday morning, and it's the day after two events that cover both sides of my blog. You may ask, what do you mean by both sides of your blog. Well; this blog of mine covers me first as a Pastor; and secondly, as a family man. 

I will start with the Pastor side of things: I am on the schedule to preach on the first Sunday of the month; it has been that way for quite a few month, so we rotate with the other two pastors, and we basically know when we are scheduled to preach. Works out pretty good that way. 

My message yesterday was titled "The Cross; The Grave; The Victory." I thought that it went well, and a couple of folks stated that they enjoyed it. It may have even challenged some folks. I will leave that up to the Holy Spirit to speak to their hearts.  

On the family man side of things; I will admit that I do not follow sports at all; don't get me wrong, I love to see or hear about the home (Boston Teams) teams winning, but usually don't watch the games on TV. However; last night I confess, I watch the entire Patriots/Seahawks game, but I will tell you; my nerves could not take that kind of nail biting game watching all the time. 

Bottom line.....Congratulations to the New England Patriots:

On another note: Friday night my daughter and youngest granddaughter stopped by the apartment, and I could not let the opportunity go by without having some cuddle time with my granddaughter. These are precious times. Selfies are not as clear.

And last, but not least; here in New England we are getting another 8-12" of snow, just about a week after receiving 2.5' of snow. At this rate, it should be gone by April. LOL. 

Well; that's it for today, barring the unexpected. Catch up with all of you later.
