Today was a good day just to sleep in and relax. Sundays really do have a new meaning for us.
We had a number of things to do such as laundry and cleaning bikes. In addition I also had to get my bike fixed. George VanderKur could not fix it so I had to go into Park City to have a bike shop look at it. It ended up that I needed a whole new shifter for my back gears as my cable had broken and the mechanism inside was jammed with some frayed cable. This cost me $306 as shifters come with the front and back. Even though I only need the back I still had to buy the pair. I was just glad I could get it fixed as one bike shop did not have the part and I had to go to another.
Hank and Marti cleaned all our bikes after we returned from town and I did the laundry for Marti, George, Hank and I.
I had trouble with the internet all day and only got Saturday posted late Sunday night. Frustrations.
Just before supper, we had lots of wind come and some rain drops. In the distance we could see major rain coming down in the valley and anticipated having a major storm over supper and the service. Just before supper, the wind changed and the dark clouds moved south of us and we saw double rainbow. We felt God telling us he is present and reminding us of his care for us. Everyone was pretty moved by the rainbow and how the storm clouds avoid our camp. God is good and gracious and omnipresent. Not one of us doubted God’s presence and care for us on Sunday night.
We had a potluck supper and celebration service put on by the area CRC churches. It was a blessed time. The minister preached on Ezekiel 47 and the river of God flowing out of the altar. He reminded us of the river we are fully immersed in the river and to observe how God is present all around us and to open our eyes to what he is doing through us.
It was a good day and we finally went to bed at 1020.
