7P: Travel, elections, and pizza

Brazil’s presidential election is tomorrow, so there’ll be much movement in the streets as people go to their obligatory vote. Hopefully, no violence.
Kavanaugh is now on the U.S. Supreme Court. Let justice prevail.
Missus and I arrived home today. Stay tuned for a short presentation of our time in the U.S.
No food in the house, after five weeks of absence, so tonight we ordered pizza. Missus remarked that we had no pizza while in the U.S.
In record time, three suitcases have been unpacked. One to go. It takes days to readjust, but getting back in routine is comforting.
An original verse of mine: The righteous rejoice when justice on earth prevails; / They’ve faith in God when human fairness fails.
A Bible verse: “He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring olive oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him” Lk 10.34.

7P: travels

Enjoyed time with the Pinson TN congregation, singing night tonight, snacks afterwards. DD attending there with boyfriend. They’ve been gracious to her.
Also enjoyed lunch with Ron and Brenda Estes, he an elder with the West End congregation in St Charles MO, a supporter. We go there the 23rd.
They’re having an area-wide lectureship Sep 20-22, so we plan to go for that as well, as participants, not speakers.
First week here has been spent with family, so shortly things will pick up and we’ll be traveling more.
Going to NLR Sep 16 to be with Somers Ave congregation for time with them.
A verse, couplet: ‘Tis sugar that kills, and not the fat of pig, / But we prefer the sweets, and growing big.
A verse, biblical: “… our Lord’s grace was abundant, bringing faith and love in Christ Jesus” 1 Timothy 1.14.

Destination reached

Destination of a long journey reached. Needed: rest, food, bath. So have travelers in all eras required after a trek, be it on foot, by Roman cargo ship, by carriage, or by a metal tube hurtling through the skies.

The Lord answered prayer for safe travels and, above and beyond, removed a traveler from our three-seat section so that the Missus and I had some extra space.

On arrival, a beautiful study Bible awaited me, gracious gift from a good friend. Did son and family get neglected for a few minutes while said Scripture got examined with care? The debate is open.
