Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Hymn

Take My Life and Let it Be
Frances Havergal

1. Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
let them flow in endless praise.

2. Take my hands and let them move
at the impulse of thy love.
Take my feet and let them be 
swift and beautiful for thee.

3.  Take my voice and let me sing
always, only, for my King.
Take my lips and let them be
filled with messages from thee. 

4. Take my silver and my gold;
not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
every power as thou shalt choose

5. Take my will and make it thine;
it shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart it is thine own;
it shall be thy royal throne.

6.  Take my love; my Lord, I pour
at they feet its treasure store.
 Take myself, an I will be
ever, only, all for thee.

Romans 12:2 KJV
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

GrannyM - We will take the puzzle apart and save it to do again next year. 

RT - Ken has years and years to go working on his train layout. It will probably never be completely done.  There is always more details to add.  We have never lived any place long enough for him to complete layout.
