Colossians 1

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! Happy first day of summer! Ha. We have been having
summer weather for several weeks now, and my A/C has been running since May. Well,
now it is official!

Looks like our rain will come in the afternoon, now, because we have another sunny day with our usual puffy clouds. Last night I stepped outside to see an egg shaped moon, and a pretty sunset. The moon will be full in a couple days and I think it will be a super moon, so I will have to remember to go out to see it!

Jason, my yard man just left. Yesterday he called me from outside the house during the downpour. He had finished with  a house down the street, and too late came to do mine, so
he put that off until today. Two people on this street have asked me for references, so I get a discount for two and one man recommended the man across the street, so that is three Jason has picked up on the same street. Saves him money in gas to have four customers on the same street!

I finally put down a book I was reading and got my ironing done yesterday. Then I paid a visit to the park and saw a freshly mown park, (in fact, I followed a mower down the street and into the park). The grass was fresh and green from all the rain. Several ibis were pecking around and people were everywhere! A good hot day, so I stopped in at McD's to get a smoothie, which was pretty refreshing, God is good!

From the Promise Bible NLT:

Colossians 1:11
We also pray that you will be strengthened with
his glorious power so that you will have all the
patience and endurance you need. May you be
filled with joy, always thanking the Father who
has enabled you to share the inheritance that belongs
to God's holy people, who live in the light. For he
has rescued us from the one who rules in the kingdom
of darkness, and he has brought us into the kingdom
of his dear Son. God has purchased our freedom with
his blood and has forgiven all our sins.


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

Love and hugs,
 Amaryllis
