Good evening Dear friends and Prayer Partners!
Because of an early appointment tomorrow, I thought I would send a blessing tonight...
Today I stopped by the Park after haircuts, and just HAPPENED, (God's timing) to see the two Marks and Terry outside Terry's office fastening a suggestion, comment box to the wall. Mark G. said he had tested the Thompson waterseal on the tower and it was dry and he wanted to open it up. Well, I was excited, and he said I could be first to walk out there.
Since there were already people out that way, I didn't expect to be first, but I was among the first dozen to enjoy the beauty and climbed to the second level to admire the view. The construction company did a beautiful job!
I asked one of the Marks to take my picture with the tower in the background, so Mark W. obliged with my last shot. God is good!
Numbers 6:24-26
May the Lord bless you
and protect you.
May the Lord smile on you
and be gracious to you.
May the Lord show you is favor
and give you his peace.
I always thank God for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,

Wisdom
Good morning, Dear Friends and Prayer Partners! This is another cool day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it!
The moon was casting shadows this morning as it glowed in a cloudless sky and the stars were twinkling still...God made a beautiful world!
I see Mama duck and her nearly grown kids just nestling under the hedges on the property next door - seems like they don't do nearly the running up and down the street as they did when they were tiny!
We saw two shiny, black gators sunning at the park yesterday. It was a gorgeous day with warm sun and cool breezes! God is good!
From the Promise Bible:
What are the benefits of wisdom?
Proverbs 9:10 "Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." Knowledge of the Holy One results in understanding. Psalm 111:10 "Reverence for the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom. The rewards of wisdom come to all who obey him. Praise His name forever!"
Wisdom is not simply knowing facts and figures; it is understanding that an all-powerful, all-knowing God has designed a moral universe with consequences for our good and evil choices. Wisdom begins with understanding our accountability to and our full dependence on our Creator. It's not what we know, but who we know.
Proverbs 3:21-26 "My child, don't lose sight of good planning and insight. Hang on to them, for they fill you with life and bring you honor and respect. They keep you safe on your way and keep your feet from stumbling. You can lie down without fear and enjoy pleasant dreams. You need not be afraid of disaster or the destruction that comes upon the wicked, for the Lord is your security. He will keep your foot from being caught in a trap. "
Wisdom produces honor in our lives and protects us from trouble. Wise people know the difference between right and wrong and choose to do what's right. More than that, wisdom is choosing to apply God's truth and principles to our daily relationships and situations.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
