Busy days!

Yesterday I had planned to go to the noon Lion's Club meeting and be installed as a new member, but with the funeral preparations, going to get acquainted with the funeral home and all the other things that needed to be done, I called my sponsor and asked that we postpone for a few weeks since I am going to be in Arkansas most of next week.
When I stepped outside this morning it was raining again. It was not a great surprise after watching the weather report last night. This pesky low pressure system has been circulating over Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma since last Thursday, drawing moisture up from the Gulf of Mexico and dumping it throughout the area. The weather reporter I watched last night said some meteorologists are calling this type of system a "landphoon" because it is similar to a typhoon.
Today will be another busy one with the funeral this morning, work in the office this afternoon and then this evening I will be going with a group from church to a dinner for Eastern European Missions up in Dallas.
We all have busy lives these days, don't we? That just seems to be part of what it means to be a member of American society. No matter what is happening in your life or how busy you get, always remember Who comes first.

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. (Colossians 3:1-4)
