Great day today! Bible study was awesome. We listened to a message by R. C. Sproul on the holiness of God. It was from Isaiah 6 and we were reminded how far we have come from truly revering and respecting the holiness of God. We must refresh ourselves on this aspect of God and give Him the reverence due Him. I am trying to learn all I can about God’s holiness because it has been so easy to be lax in giving Him glory. It is sad to see the condition of this world and how they view our Holy God. His precious name has been reduced to a curse word by many. Why do we never hear the name of Mohammed or Buddha or Confucius used in that manner? Could it be because Satan doesn’t care about those other false gods, he wants only to get people to degrade the real God.
     Today was Benjamin’s actual 18th birthday so after the Bible study Benjamin, Donna, Dorean, Amanda, McKenzie and I went to Chili’s to celebrate with him. He is such a great guy. It isn’t often you can find a   teenage boy who will be comfortable with a bunch of women. He’s just wonderful!
     I spent the rest of the afternoon marking promises in the Bible. I’m not even half way through. This process is going to take awhile, but it is fun.
     The weather is cool here. This is my favorite time of year. It gets cool then warms up a little and cools down again. You never know what the weather will be when you step outside each day. That’s Florida for you.
     Looking forward to tomorrow, Sunday is always a wonderful day. Our church folks are the best in the world. We are like a big happy family.
     This is all for today. Think about the holiness of God and what you can do to make His holiness more real in your life.
