To be honest, I don't think 'wine' and 'wisdom' are related.
But I drink Pinot Grigio every night. It's the only thing I drink.
I'm not so wise, but I am smart.
My IQ was always about 155.
I do well on on-line tests.
But I am afraid of the next 4 years under Trump.
So afraid.
And not to wise.
More wine than usual, I suspect, to get to 2029--if I live that long.
Shalom. Have a glass of wine....
At Bible Study today, it bothered some that when Mary told Jesus the wedding in Cana was out of wine, that he called her "woman".
My Bible foot note said it was, in the first century, a term of 'affection and respect".
That gave me the idea for my sermon Sunday.
We will see.
We will see....
There has been a full moon the last few nights.
I can see it out the window where I'm sitting.
And it will begin to wane now.
Waxing and waning are interesting words.
But it is 10 degrees outside.
Very cold.
I love a full moon and hate the cold.
That's just me.
I had to go to Big-Y at 10 because the afternoon was busy.
I'm making coconut cod and lobster rolls with salad and potato tots for dinner.
At 2:30 we took Brigit to the Vet.
She's very well. Plus the Vet is a pretty woman.
Then at 3:30 we took Bern's truck to English Auto for a check-up in the morning.
Whew! That's a lot for me on a Monday....
Bern's talking to our youngest grand-daughter on zoom right now and I'm writing this.
Soon, I'll go make dinner.
Then, at 7, my favorite TV show.
Long day for me....
Things went well at church today.
We did Eucharistic Prayer C--which is my favorite.
Four ladies who used to go to another church did a great coffee hour.
As always, the music from Michael Ford was great.
My sermon was well received and quoted in today's newsletter.
All was well.
All was well.
All was well....
I couldn't get my printer to work to print out my sermon.
We had a new router installed and I didn't know what to do.
I wrote out my sermon by hand--which I could barely read!
But Bern figured it out and printed out my sermon.
Now I can read it....
Thank God for Bern.
For many reasons...so many...so many....
Sunday is the Baptism of Christ.
I'll be talking about baptism.
I have a lot to say.
I will let you know what I say.
Ponder your baptism.
OK?
