Time Patience and Children

As I sit and prepare for a service on sunday I am struck by my lack of time and patience but an over abundence of Children .Now I love them dearly but I really need to get the balance of time and patience with them sorted out
so my verse for today and reminder to us all is Galations 5;22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

Easter Monday

This is my first attempt at blogging after being encouraged to blog by friends. So here goes ,enjoy the spelling mistakes.
Well, it being Easter and the celebration of our risen Lord its been a busy couple of days. We had a fantastic sunrise service(7 am) on the beach this year and breafasted later on bacon rolls .It was rather cold but the snow stayed away, my boys told me they couldnt feel their toes when the service finished. When my hubby and I returned home from Church ,to catch the end of the Passion on the BBC , which was pretty good .we tuned in munching on the kids easter eggs to Channel 4 ,to see the second half of Robert Beckfords documentary " The secrets of the 12 Disciples ". It was reallly interesting , we only saw from the discussionof Judas onwards ,which created a discussion in the living room on :was Judas the evil guy of the bible ? The progamme also showed that there would have probably been female apostles ,another hot potatoe ! How the early church would not have taken to Jesus equaltiy of women.
The conclusion was very encouraging to be disciples of today,possibly just enought to create an interest in finding out more about this Jesus and what he it all about.
Anyway best get off and do some reading and plod on with the Greek.
