Thoughts on Sunday Night.

Joining in at Spiritual Sunday, do visit for Charlotte and Ginger and the participants.

Eventually I am getting around to posting some photos from last weekend, though I have posted more pics on 50+ and Loving Life.  This is a spot we arrived at in the late afternoon and stayed for $8 per night. There was only one other RV there, a woman living permanently, with her dog, in her Winnebago. Actually this is in the area that Russell Crowe has his rural property, Glenreagh NSW.
There were kookaburras and magpies, and a shy kangaroo that hopped away as I approached

It was such a wonderful time, which I am slowly getting around to relating, and a very blessed week back home as well, with Care & Share on Tuesday, Bible Study Wednesday, Church Ladies meeting, Thursday, World Day of Prayer Friday (I did a bible reading), Flower Show Saturday morning, and a new musical group we have joined on Saturday afternoon, and a trip to join the church camp today, then friends calling in, lovely people to be with and talk to all through the week, as well as our time with each other.

A LEGACY OF LOVE.... BJ Hoff
We have been given all things from above,
a legacy gained from a treasury of love,
endowed by a King
who owns heaven and earth,
yet sees us as precious, of infinite worth.
The Father has qualified you to
share in the inheritance of the
saints in the kingdom of light
Corinthians 1:12

We finished our service today with an old favourite, beautiful scenery on the clip:


With love and Blessings for a joyous and contented week.

I'm glad you had a wonderful trip and are joining us today. Loved the song and poem. Just a closer walk with Thee is such a beautiful hymn.

Sounds like a great trip. Love this song
and as always the poetry. I need to go
check out your other blog. How did I
miss it?
As you end your day I begin mine. Hope
your tomorrow is lovely.
Love,
Sandy

It is always in the outdoors that I feel closest to God. It sounds like you had a wonderful trip. How lucky to have the campground practically to yourselves!
Happy Spiritual Sunday :)

Only $8 a night - that's a great price! So glad you had a great time. Love that song and when it echoes in my heart! Legacy of Love is a sweet poem!! Enjoyed it. Have a week full of the abundant life in Christ!

I love the older praise and worship hymn songs as well as the newer music. And this was a lovely rendition of this sweet hymn. Thank you for a sweet musical Spiritual Sunday. :)
