Lead a Quiet Life

Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders. — 1 Thessalonians 4:11

Tonight Liz will come over after work for appetizers and cake.

We'll be celebrating her birthday.

Last time she took Abby to the beach, she mentioned that she didn't have a beach chair.

Abby wished she had thought to bring chairs for them to use.

But that gave her a great idea for a birthday gift.

Sure enough, Costco has beach chairs available online.

We haven't seen them in the stores for several months.

The beach reminds me of living a quiet life, enjoying the ocean, the waves, floating on the water, and drying off in the sun.

Lord, help me to win the respect of outsiders.

Let my every act glorify You.
