Luke 16:46-55

“And Mary said,

“My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for he has looked on the humble estate of his servant.

For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed;
for he who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
And his mercy is for those who fear him
from generation to generation.
He has shown strength with his arm;
he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts;
he has brought down the mighty from their thrones
and exalted those of humble estate;
he has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy,
as he spoke to our fathers,
to Abraham and to his offspring forever.”

Over Time: here we come

So today was my mother’s annual overtime day for Payroll conversions and since I have FABS overtime we both ended up working, yeah for 7 hours on a Saturday… Over all it was not too bad our project deployed with no major major issues just a few minors here and there. After work we headed home to work on my baked good for the Bridge Christmas Party and a bunch of other randomness….

Advent

We have been studding advent at church for the last few weeks (since we are a college town and everyone evacuates by the middle of December we have Christmas early.) And now that Advent truly starts tomorrow I am super excited to start this little study I found called Good New of Great Joy from Desiring God and John Piper

John 17:24

“Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.”
