A Winner! (and a little Spurgeon)

Happy Saturday! I got so wrapped up in the holiday weekend that I realized I forgot to tell you that good ol' random.org picked us a winner for Annie Downs book, From Head to Foot!

Congrats Andrea E! Whoo hoo! You are the WINNER!! I know you will be so blessed by Annie. Did you all go see her blog? So full of energy, belly laughs and Jesus. Love her to pieces. Thank you all for entering to win!

Next week, I look forward to settling in to blogging again. For now, I'm resting with all my people, drinking coffee at Jesus' feet. I think a tree farm may be calling our name today. Or Sam's. They have a little concrete tree farm as you walk in the front door. {grin} We'll see.

I will leave you with my Charles Spurgeon devotional for today. I love this. Be blessed today...

Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might.

We have no other time in which to live. The past is gone; the future has not arrived; we never shall have any time but time present. Then do not wait until your experience has ripened into maturity before you attempt to serve God. Endeavour now to bring forth fruit. Serve God now, but be careful as to the way in which you perform what you find to do-"do it with thy might." Do it promptly; do not fritter away your life in thinking of what you intend to do tomorrow as if that could recompense for the idleness of today. No man ever served God by doing things
tomorrow.

Whatever you do for Christ throw your whole soul into it. Do not give Christ a little slurred labour, done as a matter of course now and then; but when you do serve him, do it with heart,
and soul, and strength.

But where is the might of a Christian? It is not in himself, for he is perfect weakness. His might lieth in the Lord of Hosts. Then let us seek his help; let us proceed with prayer and faith, and when we have done what our "hand findeth to do," let us wait upon the Lord for his blessing. What we do thus will be well done, and will not fail in its effect.
