If Jesus Came to Your House

If Jesus came to your house to spend a day or two,
If He came unexpectedly, I wonder what you’d do.
Oh, I know you’d give your nicest room to such an honored guest.
And all the food you’d serve would be the very best,
And you would keep assuring Him you’re glad to have him there….
But…. When you saw Him coming, would you meet Him at the door
With arms outstretched in welcome to our heav’nly visitor?
Of would you maybe change your clothes before you let Him in,
Or hide some magazines and put the Bible where they’d been?
Would you turn off the radio and hope He hadn’t heard,
And wish you hadn’t uttered that last, loud and hasty word?
Would you hide your worldly music and pout some hymnbooks out?
Could you let Jesus walk right in, or would you rush about?
And I wonder… if the Savior spent a day or two with you,
Would you go right on doing the things you always do?
Would you go right on sayings the things you always say?
Would life for you continue as it does from day to day?
Would your family conversation keep up its usual pace?
And would you find it hard each meal to say a table grace?
Would you sing the songs you always sing and read the books you read?
And let Him know the things on which you mind and spirit feed?
Would you take Jesus with you everywhere you’d planned to go,
Or would you, maybe, change your plans for just a day or so?
Would you be glad to have Him meet your very closest friends,
Or would you hope they’d stay away until His visit ends?
Would you be glad to have Him stay forever on and on,
Or would you sigh with great relief when He at last was gone?
If might be interesting to know that things that you would do,
If Jesus came in person to spend some time with you.

Happy Tired

Today is my birthday so I decided to take a little time and do something that I want to do. (like update my blog LOL)

This year was the BEST Thanksgiving that I think I have ever had. We had a lot of food and sweets! My mom, sister and ALL of my nieces were here. My wonderful husband built us a table for the living room so that we ALL could sit around the table together. It was great! People just kept coming, by the end of the day we had almost 25 people.
The guys and kids played WII and us girls looked at sales papers. The day was perfect.

The next day me, my mom, my sister, six teenagers and one 11yr old got up at 2:30am and went shopping. It is a tradition for me, my mom and sister to go but this year the kids wanted to go. I was worried about all the kids going but they took their own car and everything went smoothly. I got all of my big items purchased and came home with $4 to spare. No credit cards only cash. Now that is called budgeting. LOL Another perfect day.

Saturday one of my nieces had a wedding to go to, so she came over so I could do her hair. Before I knew it EVERYONE was back at my house. (I had just finished cleaning LOL) I LOVED IT!!!!!! Her hair turned out really pretty. Another perfect day.

After all that I am very very very tired but it is a happy, content and oh so blessed tired.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I have two more posts but I will save some for later. lol
