What’s happening in my home……?

In my kitchen… this week it has been quiet since we’re down to just three of us.

With our marriage… getting ready for yet another reenactment. This one will be in Nashville for the Tennessee History Festival. Then we need to keep on thinking about a home Bible study. We won’t be able to start it til November though because of all the reenactments in October.

With the children… Two youngest children are in the mountains with other family. The youngest girl calls every evening to report on her day, so sweet.

Around the homestead… I got the Bougainvillas cut back and brought inside. They are little things once all that foliage is cut away. The leaves are falling like crazy from the maples in the yard and its really looking like Fall.

In my “Inner Man”….. still studying the Fruit of the Spirit and trying to appropriate the Mind of Christ in me. Bible study with other ladies is so rewarding! We meet every Sunday night.

What is your Inner Man? In 2 Corinthians 4 Paul gives us a clue about what he means when he says “the inner man”. In that scripture he says that “our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day” (4:16 KJV). So for Christians even though there is something about us that is getting old, decaying and deteriorating and dying..there is also something about us that is growing, becoming more alive, richer and stronger every day we live and follow Christ. That is what Paul calls our “inner man.”
