Re: Christmas Cotillion 2014

Only five days until the Cotillion! My but those of us involved in getting it ready have just been tirelessly working to ensure a grand event at which the Lord Himself may show up (Jesus? You know you are always welcome in Freehold!).

It's amazing though that out of the 25 women that volunteered to assist, only seven of you have been doing anything. Seven is God's perfect number, of course, so I just keep praising His Glorious Name as I spend time soaking my tired muscles in my imported Jacuzzi with the solid gold controls. God is so good.

I sent the photographs of everyone's dress to Pastor Ezekiel for approval. He knows a great deal about fashion and hair - and amazingly so does his houseboy - the new one from Korea - now what was his name? Bok Choi? I don't recall. Pastor plans again to clean up after the event with carefully chosen crews. I offered to leave pie for them but he says men get by better with meat, so I guess he knows his preference better than I. Daisy, he is such a handful - or so I'm told. (Got that ring yet, hon?)

Well, I simply must get back to my Bible study now as I reflect on Pastor's sermon regarding the Evils of Being Anything Pastor Dislikes. What an unusual and yet timely sermon. We are so lucky!

In our beautiful Savior,

Naomi,

I'm so sorry to hear you are so busy, but the Lord blesses busy hands. "He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich." Proverbs 10:4 Let me know what else I can do to help. I can't get into Freehold, but I can sew, bake, ect. as necessary!

Much sisterly love,
Elizabeth

Sister Daisy was in charge of photography along with Sister Mary and that tin tither - I can't recall her name - the one that sits behind the pole on the bleacher seats? Surely someone will post some pictures soon. I can tell you it was a glorious evening and our Lord Jesus was honored at every moment by the True Christian(TM) way we conducted ourselves. Perhaps someday you ladies will meet His Favor but your impatience at times is displeasing to Him. Still, He loves you and is doing a great work in You!

Humbly,

Dear Sweet Naomi, Thank you for reminding me that I need to have patience and wait on the Lord, just as the following verses advise me.

Psalm 40:1
I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

Hebrews 6:15
And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

Thank you for helpful and mindful admonish Sister! I will wait patiently, as the Lord commands. James 1:4 "But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."
