While browsing a great blog (www.jordancooper.com), I found this link to an article that highlights ten beautiful church buildings from around the world.  If you like spectacular buildings, take a LOOK.

If you haven’t already, this little game is worth a play.  Who can resist Lego?

As I got into bed, I found myself voicing gratefulness for a lot of simple things today…

Thanks for thunder and lightning on a Sunday morning.

Thanks for a great lunch with great people (Murray, Scott & Mano)

Thanks for the reminder in Job that You are big enough to hear our doubts and complaints, and bold enough to blow us away when we need it.

Thanks for the band stand in Wascana Park–what a perfect reading place!

Thanks for the chat with the Arby’s girl–a reminder that You actually DO hear my prayers for opportunites and that You DO answer them.

Thanks for the skies in this place; they truly are “living”.

Thanks for a Rider win last night and the fun of sharing it with Blair.

Thanks for Your constant presence, closer than I could dream.

Thanks for new strength that I’ve found lately; possibility-dreaming feels more natural than usual right now.

Thanks for every part of Shannon’s weekend in Calgary.

Thanks for my just-the-right-hardness bed.

Blogging seemed to make more sense when we were back in China living “blog-worthy lives”. What’s there to write about in the midst of “normal life” back in Canada? Surprisingly, a LOT of small things… all of which I can’t remember at the moment. All the more reason to put off putting off the creation of a new blog. You definitely qualify for some type of scholarship if you made it through that last sentence without crossing your eyes.

For any who missed the China portion of our lives or simply find it more interesting than what shows up here, go HERE.
