Going Grey?


Well we have just returned from being with our friends in Falkirk all day. We had a lovely time with them. We took the kids to a brand new play area and had lunch and then went back to their house and sat outside for the rest of the day. We had a nice Korma for tea!!! I think I must have left the camera there so it is an old photo you have just now.
The couple we met up with were in Bible college with us. We normally reminisce about those days evry time we meet up and today was no different as one of their kids brought out a photo of Jonathan and Hazel's year. I wish you could see it. Jonathan is so skinny with spiky hair, he looks like fido dido from the 7up ads. Google him if you are too young to remember!
Boy are we ageing! We talked quite a bit today about grey hair being your wisdom, that's how we are trying to console ourselves anyhow. Experience really is something that can't be bought or just taught in a class it has to be lived in real life. Whatever you go through is training you to somehow someday talk to someone who thinks that no one understands. 1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
Hebrews 2:18 For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.
Well I'm making soup right now as tomorrow, after the coffee morning I am off to visit a lady who is housebound. I'm taking the soup, Kay is taking the rolls and Jessie is taking the cakes, now that's teamwork!
Speak tomorrow! Love Elizabeth xx
