Snail-mail, Scriptures & Orchids

I know, I know - I should be studying but here's just a few quick thoughts from my day so far...

I got a letter from my Granny today. (I love getting mail that doesn't require a cheque in return!) She wrote and told me about reading issues of the War Cry, how her orchids were doing (my grandparents always had beautiful flowers in their garden) and scriptures she'd be reading of late that she thought I would appreciate. I just had to share...

...it's nice to know that the Lord knows the way that we take,
like the old chorus says:
Follow, I will follow thee, my Lord
Follow every passing day
My tomorrows are all know to thee,
Thou wilt lead me all the way...


...
the Holy Spirit is intent on changing us more and more into the likeness of Christ, with God as the Potter shaping us into the exact likeness that He wants us to be.
Do you like this Bible verse?
'As He is, so are we in this world...'

...
it will soon be Christmas once more. A couple of my orchid plants have come into flower - one is pink and the other is yellow and they look very nice. Must finish off for now...
Love and prayers from Granny
I just loved it! You really can't beat a letter from home can you? And it's kind of precious don't you think...
