Murder is a most grievous sin. Once we get past the common evangelical error that all sins are equally wicked we recognize that murder will surely be one of the biggest sins. After all, we are told those who practice these things will not see the kingdom of heaven (Gal. 5:21). That said, however, we know of at least two men guilty of murder who are in heaven, David, and Paul. The list in Galatians 5 is not a list of unforgivable sins. Instead it is a list of those sins, which when they are practiced, evidence a lack of saving faith. Practicing these sins, however, is not the same thing as committing them. We practice these sins, or any sin, when we give up, when we no longer fight the temptation, when we embrace the sin as good. When, however, we fight, when we repent for falling into these sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins (1 John 1:9).

We have been keeping busy with our summer.  All the grandkids are in school now, so the week-long visits will stop for now. 
 
Someone gave us an R.V.  It is in really decent condition but the ceiling has water marks from leaking.  The first job was to fix the roof, and the old stuff has all been scraped off and it is ready to seal.  It will make a nice place for someone to stay as needed.
 
We are busy with produce.  Our season seemed really late.  But now everything is getting ripe at once.  We are blessed with lots of tomatoes, corn, lemon cucumbers, grapes and pears.  We are still eating the early apples and will have more varieties for several months.
 
Someone wanted to rent our guest cottage furnished, so I went to an estate sale and got a queen bed.  It was in their guest room and looked brand new.  I have found other furniture as well.  It is only 600 square feet, so it didn’t take much stuff to fill it up.
 
I love this time of year!
