Martha (Thank You, Jesus) |
Have I ever introduced myself? Well, I will now. I'm a grandmother of two, the mother of three adult children, and the wife of a long suffering husband, whom I think of as my "Martha." By "Martha," I am referring to the parable of Martha and Mary. (Luke 10:41-42) Martha does all the work, which makes it easier for Mary to spend her time with Jesus. Hubby used to cook supper while I taught religious education. He baby sat while I went to Lay Dominican Chapter meetings. All in all he puts up with a lot, and I thank God for him, every day. As to why I blog, well since I belong to a family of preachers (Dominicans), blogging is how I preach. My aim is to show how a simple grandmother gives witness. Hopefully, others will be brought a little closer to God.
So what prompted this disclosure? R'Ann from This And That And The Other Thing blog did. Every Sunday, a group of us bloggers link together and discuss something like "Who are you?" (see first paragraph) and we tell about what we posted the past week. If you're interested, click on over to This And That And The Other Thing blog, and read what my fellow bloggers have been up to.
