Hello there! Was at work again today, missed being on FR.

The flowers in that picture look like California Poppies. I’d guess Oriental Poppies but the flowers are too small.

A handsome pair of doggos too, very nice!

Do California poppies have the same effect as Oriental poppies?

If so, are they illegal? Just curious.

I don’t know if those 2 poppies are the same that way.
Not illegal, as we grow Oriental poppies for over 50 years.
Never grew the CA poppies, but seeds are commonly sold.

Refreshed at Simon’s House
Read: 1 Corinthians 16:15–18

They refreshed my spirit and yours also. 1 Corinthians 16:18

My trip to Simon’s house was unforgettable. Under the cover of a starlit sky in Nyahururu, Kenya, we made our way to his modest home for dinner. The dirt floor and the lantern light reflected Simon’s limited means. What was on the menu, I don’t recall. What I can’t forget was Simon’s joy that we were his guests. His gracious hospitality was Jesus like—selfless, life-touching, and refreshing.

In 1 Corinthians 16:15–18, Paul mentioned a family—the household of Stephanas (v. 15)—who had a reputation for their caregiving. They’d “devoted themselves to the service of the Lord’s people” (v. 15). While their service likely included tangible things (v. 17), the impact was such that Paul wrote, “they refreshed my spirit and yours also” (v. 18).

When we have opportunities to share with others, we rightly give attention to matters of food, setting, and other things that are fitting for such occasions. But we sometimes forget that although “the what” and “the where” matter, they’re not the most important things. Memorable meals are great and pleasant settings have their place, but food is limited in its capacity to fully nourish and encourage. True refreshment flows from God and is a matter of the heart; it reaches the hearts of others, and it continues to nourish long after the meal is over.Arthur Jackson

What occasions stand out where you were memorably refreshed by the hospitality or welcome of others? How can you change the way you serve others to make such occasions more spiritually meaningful?

Father, forgive me for the times I’ve made welcoming others more about me than those I seek to serve. Help me to extend myself in ways that truly refresh others.

Bible in a year: 1 Chronicles 10–12; John 6:45–71

I didn’t go to work today or yesterday because I had an awful cold.

Not covid, but miserable enough.

I’ll be better by Monday’s Lessons, but I’ll lay low for the weekend. Don’t want anyone to catch this.

Coulda been a lot worse.
