March 19. Dreary and foggy early in the morning, but the Lord sent us wind and warm sunshine later to dry the clothes, warm our bodies, and give us vitamin D. No rain until this evening. Finished up a half hexagon after breakfast. Did a little Bible study. Then proofread the next Revelation lesson to get it ready for printing. Printed teacher’s copy this evening. Continued work on the Ready lessons off and on throughout the day and finished getting words highlighted and italicized. Now I’ll transfer a copy to Daddy’s computer so he can look over the lessons and see what changes or additions might need to be made. March 20. Foggy this morning with a huge front running all across the northern sky. However, it wasn’t long before the clouds had faded away and the sun shone brightly. Before nap was over, the thunder began to roar and roll, and the air cooled down considerably. The Lord has been giving us rain this evening. Woke up in the middle of the night with wind blowing in my face and my throat hurting so have been trying to fight sore throat and earaches today. Daddy is still battling a bad cold and has been running a fever. This morning, I made another afghan hexagon so have just one to go. Then there will be dozens of ends to tuck in. Also put blanks for the answers to the questions in the next Revelation lesson and then made some banana muffins. This afternoon, I made up another Bible story card for giving out to people who come to the door. This evening, I printed out copies of the card and also the students’ copies of the next Revelation lesson. Got a booklet set up for the book of Romans and the Romans outline, and transferred some of the outline to the booklet. “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28) March 21. The morning was foggy and damp, and it looked like it might be a long time before the fog should disappear; but the Lord surprised us and cleared the fog away quickly and brought us welcome sunshine. After making pancake breakfast and getting the kitchen cleaned up, I sat and relaxed a while and prayed and crocheted. Then we took advantage of the sunshine and went outside for a stretch before the meeting on the hill. Most of the rest of the day, I worked on the Romans outline-plus-text booklet and finished through chapter 3. This evening, the Lord surprised us with unusual weather again — a tropical storm with powerful, chilly winds, pretty much like cyclone or typhoon winds; torrential rains that pounded with such force upon the tin roof that the deafening din literally gave me a headache; continuous lightning and thunder. It probably lasted a half hour or so, but it seemed like a long time, it was so fierce. Nuanda was here when the storm started, trying to get his computer to work. He was afraid one of the trees down at his place might fall on his house. He had to wait until the storm ended before he could go home. And I waited until the storm ended before I took my bath. Later in the evening, we listened to a message by Tom Farrell called “Let’s Be a Barney.” Then we sang a couple hymns together and prayed.
