The city is covered in a gorgeous blanket of white. A reminder of the purity that God promised he would bring us through the washing of his son (Is 1:18). The problem is, now church is cancelled. So what is next?
Well, we sleep late, to rest from the shoveling -this is, after all, a day of rest! But then after breakfast, we will all join together and pick three songs to worship to (I am flexible, if we get into it, we could spend the morning in worshiping thru song).
Next, prayer. We will go around the family and ask what we want to give thanks for, like exams over, God's kindness that we have electricity and heat, love and each other. We will also pray about the things we are concerned about and ask for God's intervention.
Finally, i will use the blessings of the internet and choose one of the wonderful messages that are on the world-wide-web and listen as a family. There are TONS that I have already downloaded and listen to. I will pick one that is of general interest/benefit to the family.
Wow, this is going to be hard. Here are some of my options:
Ken Sande, the Worst of Sinners makes the Best of Peacemakers
Bob Kauflin, Praying against Temptation
Mark Mullery, In My Place - For Your Joy
Jerry Brudges - Humility in Action
Craig Cabiness - Overcoming the Fear of Man
Mike Bullmore - Cultivating a Fruitful Life in the Word
(okay, this is getting ridiculous. I'm like a kid in the candy shop. HOW DO I PICK JUST ONE?!?!)
Then I will carve out time later in the week to discuss how God spoke to each member of the family in the message and ask for application follow-ups. All I need is one.
Then - LUNCH!!!
