Grow in Your Christian Walk

Good morning, Dear Friends and Prayer Partners! This is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it! Did you see the slim crescent moon this morning with Venus about a foot below it? It was awesome!! It was low in the east and shining brightly, although that was the last of the moon until the new moon. There is something to be said about getting up early...:o)

Several new trees have been planted in the park in the part that has been opened recently. Arborvitae, and maple, I think, to fill in the bare spots. Of course, they will need water, but it honors Earth day. Lots of people were there, even though it was a work day, Saturday, a bridal party was there having their photos taken. It was a beautiful day for a wedding. Always something going on there.

From the book, God's Promises:

Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes,
And I shall keep it to the end.
Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law;
Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
Make me walk in the path of your commandments,
For I delight in it.
Psalm 119:33-35

Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep
His commandments. He who says, "I know Him,"
and does not keep His commandments,
is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
But whoever keeps His word, truly the love
of God is perfected in him. By this we know
that we are in Him. He who says he abides in Him
ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
1 John 2:3-6

I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!

Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
