Long overdue...

Several days ago, this beautiful bouquet of flowers was stuck in my door handle on my big door at my studio the day after Sister Grace sang at the Presbyterian church in Athens.  I was so excited to find them!  They came from none other than sweet Kay Burlingame--thank you, Kay!  Sister Grace really enjoyed singing there with such a warm and friendly congregation.  Jaina Anderson did a fabulous job speaking about hospitality.  Something she said made me stop and think about it over and over again.  She said something close to this: "Hospitality is the cause and the consequence of receiving God's blessing."  I loved that!  Meaning that when you are hospitable to someone it is because you are extending God's blessing, then you AND the recipient receive God's blessing.  Think about that.  How many circumstances in life are both the cause and consequence of something? (Did I say that right? ) Makes me want to be more giving!  Thank you, Kay for extending your hospitality beyond Sunday and making our day on Monday!
