Our Daily Bread

Yesterday I was fortunate enough to join in with an online service courtesy of my friend Pen Wilcock and her Methodist community.  The reading from scripture was the Israelites wandering in the desert and God providing Manna for them to eat.  There was a condition attached and that was they should only take enough for each day.  Naturally some folk decided to flout the rules and they learned a valuable lesson, the  stuff they attempted to hoard was crawling with all sorts of creepy crawlies!!  It is a big lesson in recognising and appreciating that He gives us grace just for the day in hand.  The Bible tells us not to worry about tomorrow for today has enough cares of its own, sage advice in these uncertain times.  In between praying for those on the front line and friends who are so very poorly at the moment I've been trying to focus on the job list, the home school lessons and keeping us sane!  Here are some pictures from the weekend:

I spent all day Saturday cutting and arranging the squares for the first of the memory quilts.  I used a plain blue and a checked shirt with an assortment of colours courtesy of mum and from my fabric pile.  The check shirt forms a cross shape on the quilt with one exception, a cross made of cute mopeds as a nod to Dad's motorbike days :-)  Hoping to start the sewing tomorrow.
