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! After the deluge yesterday, the sun is shining weakly today, but although it is hot and humid, more showers are predicted for later on. The TV news was full of pix of flooded streets,and stranded cars, whose drivers foolishly drove into flooded streets, not knowing how deep the water was. Just makes extra work for tow trucks and first responders who checked out every car. This was on Bayshore Blvd. in Tampa. The bridge to Davis Island was closed and that means those residents were stranded, which is where Derek Jeter's house (mansion) is.
The weather was threatening when I drove to my doctor's appointment, but it rained when I was being examined, and had stopped long enough for me to get in the car, and start home when it started a light sprinkle again. Then after I pulled into the garage, it really came down!
The girls were here cleaning, and Kim told me about some prowlers, her husband had surprised early a couple mornings ago. Seems there were four of them on bicycles, and they were walking up every driveway just testing doors and cars. He leaves for work at 4:30 AM, and was face to face when he opened his door. The bad guys took off right away, and I think he should have called 911 to report the prowlers, but he chose not to do that. Well, I am always locked up, but will check everything just to make sure from now on.
Well, I did not see the gecko in my bathroom last night or this morning, so maybe he has moved on or expired. He was really skinny yesterday morning, and is not finding anything to eat in the shower, where he has been lurking. I feel sorry for him, but not sorry enough to try to capture him. Oh, well, God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Psalm 37:26,27
It is better to be godly and have little
than to be evil and possess much.
For the strength of the wicked will be shattered,
but the Lord takes care of the godly.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love.
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
