Golfing

I've been out golfing! (Well, sort of...)

Sturdi-Bilt recently purchased a golf cart for the purpose of driving interested parties around the premises to view our buildings. Although I am not a salesman, I thought it looked like jolly good fun to take a ride and was watching for an opportunity! The other day it came! I was showing the new girl how to do fire extinguisher checks. The fire extinguishers are scattered far and wide across the grounds so we took the opportunity to take the golf cart for a spin. 

Wow! It's amazing what a small thing can do to lift your spirits and brighten your day! You're never too old to learn something new! 

What new thing will you try this week?

P.S. BTW, for you locals, I have it firsthand that there is a new mini-golf course going in, in Hutch! Anyone up for a game??

Seasons

Last week I got a letter from my sister. She wrote what her, almost 8-year-old said about her favorite seasons. I will sum it up here. 

Her favorite seasons are winter, spring and summer. When asked why, this is what she replied. I like skating, sledding and making snowballs in the winter. In summer I like to swim and in spring I like the flowers. Then she added that she likes fall, too, because she likes jumping in the leaves. 

She found something good in every season! I felt rebuked! How often all I can see are the hard, difficult things, the things I don't like. 

Seasons come and seasons go, not only in the natural, but in the journey of our lives. Some are filled with sunshine and flowers, others feel dark and lonely and we wish they would pass quickly. But in every one there is something to be learned and He is with us always. 

Whatever the season you are in, may it be seasoned with Him!
