So our evening entertainment is watching the proceedings. What’s great is that it is streamed live so we can watch it now and carry on later. It’s really bringing out the royal in me!
God bless the Queen! My weekend entertainment is arranged.
We swam this morning. Then dashed home in time for a 10am online appointment. 7 more hours of work. We also said goodbye to a guest who came for 4 nights and stayed 13. Tomorrow next guests arrived.
Hebrews 9:28
Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him.
The best is yet to come – we are only passing through.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
