Macy (8) has a diary. She brought it to church last night and took notes. Here are a few lines:

Dad is preaching to the people. Dad said it is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of every man. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings . . .

Those are God's words that Dad just presented to me. They will be treasured forever.

Looks like the version she keeps to show you. Better look for the secret version.

That is so wonderful!

I should mention that the verse transcription she got from the passages on the screens.
Macy's an incredible writer for 8 years old, but the word "insofar" is not in her vocabulary. :-)

Well, I guess it is now!
