Convention

Our Knoxville church convention begins tomorrow. It's four days of spiritual feasting. We look forward to being there. I hope I am prepared. No, I don't mean I have my luggage packed and things like that. I hope I have a soft heart and ready to hear what God has prepared for me.

Don't expect any posts from me until next week. I doubt I will have the time.

I usually take notes at our church conventions. It seems to help me remember what I heard. Then later I go through my notes a jot down the things that were "special" to me. I have called these my convention "gems". I have my "gems" from earlier conventions listed on one of my web pages in case you are interested: Convention Gems

Joke of the Day

While attending a marriage seminar on communication, Tom and his wife Peg listened to the instructor declare, "It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other."

He addressed the men, "Can you describe your wife's favorite flower?"

Tom leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, Pillsbury All-Purpose, isn't it?"

The rest of the story is not pleasant.
