I may have already written before, but hey, it's the wonderful thing about yesterday as well! I have always loved the hymn, "Sweet Is the Work", the first verse of which says:
Sweet is the work, my God, my King,That's what we did with Andrea, our student in the Missionary Prep Class (we also have "Angelo"/Chen Wei, who is currently in China). We talked of his truths at night, and rejoiced together. The sweet, joyful spirit that accompanies such discussions cannot be duplicated, and engenders a bond that cannot be broken.
To praise thy name, give thanks and sing,
To show thy love by morning light,
And talk of all thy truths at night.
fun thing:
Well, I'm writing this because yesterday I took it down; but the "heart attack" the sister missionaries attached to our door on Valentines Day has brought us joy ever since. Red foil hearts in all sizes adorned the door, plus a big valentine with all sorts of cute sayings on it. Blaine is fond of saying "buona roba", which translates into "good stuff". He found out a few weeks ago that the phrase "buona roba" has come to imply a drug reference! It was one of the phrases on the valentine, we thought that was a hoot.
