Back in town for the wedding week

Back from the Childlight Conference and this is the wedding  week. You think all is taken care of but it is the week  suitcases get packed, lists are checked , and errands still are being run. We are going up to the NC mountains for this wedding.

It was surreal to be with Makoto Fujimura.
Yes, with him, my husband and my daughter.
( no verb in that sentence!! ) More on that but it is the week of a son's wedding !!!

Today's WORD A DAY is REDOUND. I meditated on  this verse last week and again this week :  James Moffatt's version of Eph 1: 8- 13:

So richly has God lavished upon us his grace, ...................to make us redound to the praise of his glory by being the first to put our hope in Christ. 

 ( Can you believe this is TODAY'S WORD!)
A.Word.A.Day

with Anu Garg

redound

MEANING:

verb intr.:
1. To contribute to (someone's credit, honor, etc.).
2. To come back upon

ETYMOLOGY:

From Old French redonder (to overflow), from Latin redundare (to overflow), from red-/re- (back) + undare (to surge). Ultimately from the Indo-European root wed- (water, wet), which also gave us water, winter, hydrant, redundant, otter, and vodka. Earliest documented use: before 1382. 

I am redounding!
