November 7. Charlotte day today. Left here around 9:40, arriving at our destination around 10:40. It seemed like a short trip to me as I could not stay awake in the car and dozed off for a while. Made a quick stop at Neighborhood Walmart to pick up a couple needed items. Then Connie and I walked over to the chiropractic office while Daddy checked out. Dr. Schulman was busy today as were the two stores we went to. From the chiropractor’s office, we went to Earth Fare to get some bulk grains -- buckwheat groats, oat groats, amaranth, and quinoa. Then to TJ’s for our regular shopping - double this time, however, since we won’t be able to go next month as Daddy won’t be here and it is hard for Christy to take a day off after just recently starting her job. Arrived home around 2:45. Christy was already her taking her nap. After we got the car unloaded and groceries put away, we had our nap. That was about a half hour later. Enjoyed a refreshing hour-long nap. Did some proofreading of discipleship book number two before having supper and then doing dishes. Christy had to go out this evening for a work meeting. “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” I Corinthians 1:9 Praise God for His faithfulness! He is completely trustworthy. His word is always true. We can count on Him to do all that He has promised. With Him there is no variableness neither shadow of turning. Great is His faithfulness! November 8. Daddy and I both slept in this morning so the day started a bit late. We were all tired after yesterday’s outing, I guess. Voting day for the many who did not vote early. How will it end? Where will our country end up? May God’s will be done, and may God have mercy on the USA. Didn’t go anywhere to day. I was thankful to stay at home. Cooked kamut and fish for breakfast. The kamut took forever to cook, even after soaking it overnight, according to instructions. It was on the stove simmering for about two hours and was still quite chewy. Finished the plant hanger I had been working on to give to our back yard neighbors along with the pretty purple campanula plant we bought yesterday at TJ’s. Wrote a thank you note and a couple e-mails. Got last week’s journal notes ready to send to Connie. Looked up the difference between stock and broth since a lady in Aldi asked me that question a couple weeks ago and I didn’t know the answer. Daddy had his nap early this afternoon and then went out to get the car inspected and pay the registration fee. I had my nap a little later. This afternoon, I sent Connie the journal notes, swept and washed our bathroom floor, and swept the bedroom floor. “18For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God…. 21For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe…. 23But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.” I Corinthians 1:18,21,23,24 The preaching of the cross has power to save. It is by preaching the Gospel that men believe and God saves them. We must preach the Gospel in order for men to be saved. It is the Gospel that has power to save, not man’s wisdom, not man’s reasoning, not man’s writings, nothing else but the preaching of the Gospel.
