October 1st

Busy but wonderful day today, Lord. It was such a wonderful blessing to preside over the wedding of a lovely older couple. Thanks for that, and for the way Lois' and Owen's families came together in love, fun and support.That made me very happy! It was a special blessing to be included in all the festivities, and then go out to yet another party, this time to celebrate a 50th birthday. Thanks, God, for these joyful celebrations and all the blessings you've provided. Help me truly rejoice with those who rejoice and to encourage people to rejoice often. Bless Lois and Owen as they begin their life together; bless me to help them and others find ways to live and rejoice.
