Wednesday

Mornin' Ladies! Hope you are all off to a wonderful Wednesday! I feel pretty joyful this morning, I'll have to admit! I did go to Wal-Mart yesterday, and I picked up some plates, napkins and cups for the New Year's Eve bash. If anyone knows of anything else that we need, please let me know. I'd love to sign up to bring some food, but I've kinda left my husband alone for now. So, everyone, ask Donnie if he's going to the New Year's Eve bash tonight!! Ha! We'll get him one way or another! Just kiddin! You don't have to.

I'm doing another Elizabeth George Bible Study. It's in 1 Peter and it's titled "Putting on a Gentle and Quiet Spirit". Yeah! That's what I thought! I sure do need that! Hey, anyhoo, today it was on 1 Peter 3:18-22. It said that many have considered these verses to be some of the most difficult in the New Testament. So, I was wondering. What do you make of this? Let's have a little discussion about it.

1 Peter 3:18-22 (New International Version)

18For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, 19through whom[a] also he went and preached to the spirits in prison 20who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water, 21and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge[b] of a good conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 22who has gone into heaven and is at God's right hand—with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.

Tell me what you think, then I'll tell you what I think, then we can ask Brother Joe if we need to!!
