Ok, I just had a weird convo with W. This is her first real weekend all by herself, with d18 away at an out-of-state school, and s14 with me. I'm sure most of us on this Board know what happens on those long weekends alone when our spouses are free. I wouldn't let my mind think about such things.

W's call came out of the blue on a Saturday night. She asked me to consider doing something for her. W asked me to take s14 to his football games and practices on Tuesday nights for the next couple of months. The reason for this change - W wants to attend a Bible Study on Tuesday nights.

Color me shocked. W is not a "book person", and in the last 5 years I never saw her with her Bible. I asked her 10+ years ago to attend with me a study of Romans by one of the big international Bible study groups, and she fought with her Bible leader the whole year. It was not a good experience for her.

I paused for a moment as W talked, and then I agreed to take s14 on his Tuesday night football stuff. Something new for W in a positive way, so I am all in. Faith comes from hearing God's Word. I hope this meets W's spiritual needs. My prayers for her growing faith in the process of being answered?
