Sermon Directed At Me

I told our preacher that his sermon was directed straight at me today.  It was about how you shouldn't dwell on the bad stuff in your life, but rather on the good times.  That is exactly what I'm trying to do.  I won't be able to forget this past year, but I am concentrating on remembering things that happened in happier times.   His sermon just added to my belief that this is the best thing for me to do.
I am formulating in my head some things to write about that MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME,  both good and bad.  I will post about these things soon...........
By the way, I am very sad because this was the last Sunday that this preacher will be at our church.  He's moving to Florida.  He was an interim for us, and his contract has run out.  We haven't found a new pastor, yet, so we will have pulpit supplies for a while.  That's okay, though.  I'd rather the Pastor Nominating Committee, which my husband is on, will take their time finding just the right person to fill this position.  Our church is struggling, just as so many others are right now.
