Zephaniah

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! The neighbor is out mowing his yard with a very noisy mower and a lot of birds were singing in the front yard, which I could hear until the mower started!

We have an overcast day, but no rain for a couple days.However, the gutter still has water in it and the yard is still muddy looking down front, so we're good for awhile.

I had a really good time celebrating my sister's birthday, with her two daughters yesterday! Kim flew up from south Florida, and came to my house, and Dena and her mom came from Palm Harbor. We started at the Dali Museum and toured the whole gallery and then went across to The Hangar. Wednesday is $5 burger day, and the place was packed. We had to wait about 15 minutes for a table, and then about forty minutes for our food, but meantime, we caught up a lot on each other's lives. It's too bad we live in the same state and spend so little time in personal contact that does not include texting or emailing!

I am a people watcher, and directly in my line of vision, across the room, I noticed a handsome young man sitting alone at a table, waiting for someone. After a short wait, a young woman joined him and they engaged in conversation, with him hardly taking his eyes off her. When their food finally came, after a wait as long as ours, he asked the blessing on their food. A sweet moment!

About five minutes after I came home , my cleaning ladies came, so I was busy catching up with
them for another hour. It was a busy day, but God is good!

From the Promise Bible NLT:

Zephaniah 3:17

The Lord your God has arrived to live
among you. He is a mighty savior. He
will rejoice over you with great gladness.
With his love, he will calm all your fears.
He will exalt over you by singing a happy song.


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

Love and hugs,
 Amaryllis
