God's love is with a man when...

Good October morning, Dear Friends and Prayer Partners! Brr! Almost chilly this morning! But this is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it! When I stepped outside this morning, the stars were shining more brightly than they had been, because the humidity is low. Well, at least that is my theory. Not scientific, I know. But it looks like it will be a beautiful day!

It was a nice day for a visit to the Park yesterday...cool air and bright, warm sunshine. My nose is much better, but I will still have to be careful in the sun, because it is very tender. I saw a beautiful, white egret looking for fish in the water by the canal, and the anhinga was drying its wings, as usual. A turtle was sunning on a log and also, one was on the bags by the weir. All of God's creatures were enjoying the fall weather! God is good!

From the little book God's Promises:

God's love is with a man when...
He Brings His Problems to God

If you would prepare your heart,
and stretch out your hands toward Him;
If iniquity were in your hand, and you put it far away,
And would not let wickedness dwell in your tents;
Then surely you could lift up your face
without spot;
Yes, you could be steadfast, and not fear;
because you would forget your misery,
And remember it as waters that have passed away,
And your life would be brighter than noonday.
Though you were dark, you would be like the morning.
And you would be secure, because there is hope;
Yes, you would dig around you, and take your rest in safety.
Job 11:13-18

But Jesus looked at them and said to them,
"With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
Matthew 19:16

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

Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
