When they ran out of wine at the wedding feast
You turned the water into wine
The wedding guests all commented that the best wine had been saved for last
Days of summer are slipping away
Days before my precious ones leave for Ghana to do Your work
Do a miracle here, Jesus
Save the best wine for last
Another birthday has come and gone
They seem to come and go faster every year
You said our latter years would be greater than our former years
Do a miracle here, Jesus
Save the best wine for last
You said children are a blessing
And children’s children are a crown
I’ve tasted and I’ve seen
You’ve done a miracle here, Jesus
The best wine is saved for last!
The children and grandchildren are all home to spend the last days of August together. Middle daughter and her family leave for Ghana this fall so this is our last time all together before they leave. The next couple of weeks I am sure that I will be a bit hit and miss here and may not be able to respond to your comments or get around to visiting. I’m sure you can understand.
Oh, and this week’s simple pleasure is a picnic at the river with my grandbabies.
Still following,
Elizabeth
