The Harvest in Thailand

I didn't shut the car door completely - the interior light drained the battery.  I Was thankful for my power bank that jump starts the car too.  There wasn't a neighbour to be found!

Flat tyre quick repair

Chocolate Sausage

 

Made a chocolate sausage for some fellow missionaries' farewell do, So glad it was all eaten, otherwise I may have had to bring some home, and you know what that would probably mean?     Yes - I'd have to eat it up. That would be an overdose of calories I'm sure!

 

Are you still growing as a Christian?

Sometime it's a good idea to stop and think about our Christian lives.  
Are we still growing?
Are we struggling so that we feel like giving up, or giving in?
Are there steps we need to take to keep moving forward?
If you'd like a chance to think, maybe  you could do my survey  
"Are you growing as a Christian?"
 Looking forward to hearing from you

My prayer for today, that I will continue to press on, 

whatever may come my way.

Connecting water to my house

The local odd job man reconnecting the mains water

to the house water supply.  Wouldn’t you know it?

It’s not that simple he’ll have to put a new pipe into the wall.

Water fountain outside my house

Last night my neighbour backed into my water meter and broke it off.

This is what I found this morning. The water Department fixed the meter

but wouldn't reconnect to the house.

My Neighbour's Laundry

Came home from Church today, to find that my neighbour
