well, its over

My vacation week has sadly at an end, so back to work I go tonight. I enjoyed my days off, it gave me some time to rest and relax. Not too much though, Dad and I managed to paint the old house. That was my Father's Day gift to him, helping him with that and some other home improvement projects. In a way, I am looking forward to getting back to my job. I like my coworkers, and we work well together to get things done. So, it gives me a sense of accomplishment and pride when, even though we are understaffed, we all put our shoulders to the wheel and " Git-r-Done"

We all have a cross to bear, if we are to follow Christ...

Mat 19:16 Just then someone came up and asked Him, "Teacher, what good must I do to have eternal life?"
Mat 19:17 "Why do you ask Me about what is good?" He said to him. "There is only One who is good. If you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."
Mat 19:18 "Which ones?" he asked Him. Jesus answered, Do not murder; do not commit adultery; do not steal; do not bear false witness;
Mat 19:19 honor your father and your mother; and love your neighbor as yourself.
Mat 19:20 "I have kept all these," the young man told Him. "What do I still lack?"
Mat 19:21 "If you want to be perfect," Jesus said to him, "go, sell your belongings and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me."
Mat 19:22 When the young man heard that command, he went away grieving, because he had many possessions.
Mat 19:23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, "I assure you: It will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven!
Mat 19:24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God."
Mat 19:25 When the disciples heard this, they were utterly astonished and asked, "Then who can be saved?"
Mat 19:26 But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
