Summing up April...

Seven days left in the month of April-- Like the McDonald's jingle sings~ "I'm lovin' it!"  Here's why:
The weather has been diverse and inviting.  We've had rain, cool breezes, sneak previews of 100 degree summer days, and everything in between.  Lots of events happening this month-- ranging from a vintage car show in downtown La Verne, Easter sunrise service and family get together, a spring brunch, capturing of a long time foe-- "Tom Cat", well-spent time with out-of-state family members, and birthday celebrations for family members and friends.

Also in spring, "Spring Cleaning" mode continues.  This upcoming Saturday, we're having a yard sale.  Coincidentally, our pastor is teaching in the book of Revelation-- It's been challenging to hear exhortations alluding to our present state with the Lord.  Just like the words to the church of Ephesus, I need to ask myself, have I left my First Love~ Jesus?  And, if so, what do I need to do to get back to that place where I was excited and enthusiastic?  It's not enough to serve and obey-- but to love and enjoy God in my life.
