Navigating a life for Christ

I stumble ALOT.



My life verse is Psalms 37:23-24 "If the Lord delights in a man's way, He makes his steps firm. Though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.



It helps to know God can use fools like me.

Snow and List

We woke up this morning to about 2-3 inches of snow. It is very pretty. Surprisingly, it does not snow very much in England; about as much as it snows in Alabama. And people react to it about like people in Alabama. Everything stops. School is out. Nice. It does snow quite frequently in Scotland. Northern Scotland is about like living in Minnesota - lots of white stuff from November to May. But now the sun is out, the roads are clear and we are going to church.

Everyone seems to put lists on their blogs. My brain seldom works in a list mode. But I was thinking of what makes me laugh here - that is what I would be thinking of.........
So here is my partial list, partial, because many things make me laugh - and it is not English exclusive:
  1. My favorite most recent movie: King of California
  2. My favorite English comedian at this time : Bill Bailey (check out his "love song" on youtube.)
  3. My favorite American comedian at this time : Jim Gaffegan (sp?)
  4. My favorite kiddie joke punch line : "thunderwear!"
  5. I laugh every time Christopher does his lizard impression.
  6. My Scottish friend, Lisa, says "Pantaloon's!!" every time she is annoyed.
  7. I silently laugh when the English rant and rave about finding dog poo on the sidewalk or street, but say nothing when horses leave huge poos in the same places.
  8. I think our postman is funny.
  9. Nathan (our young office Brit) really thinks he is Jack Bauer from "24."
  10. My husband still makes me laugh at really silly things.

This list makes me long to visit with a certain someone whose sense of humor always made me laugh -- you.
