– For all those who ran in the Music City Marathon – way to go!   It was wet.  It was long.  You did it.

–  The NFL Draft is lots of fun.  I didn’t get to watch much of the draft, but I loved seeing all the highlight reels when I could.

–  I love the worshipping Jesus with my church family!  I’m so proud of all Beth Allison has given to our worship experience.  She is a gift to our church.

– I had lunch on Sunday with a young couple who is going to Romania to work among the gypsies of Romania.  I’m always amazed the variety of calls God gives to His servants.

– So glad to have my Mom move back to Hendersonville from Texas!

– I am enjoying a rare Sunday evening without plans, but I’m excited about a new 2:42 season that starts on Sunday, May 5th.

– Rain has never concerned me, until the 2010 flood in Nashville.  With a heavy rain like we had this weekend, I hold my breath for our area, and trust God.

–  As I have encountered several deaths and terminal situations, I have been considering this question:  How could anyone face the death of a loved one without believing in the promise of heaven?
 But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died. – 1 Corinthians 15:20 (NLT)
