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! Our cold front came through, but the temp did not drop as I had expected. It was cool enough last night that I had put the heavy blanket on before climbing into bed, and I was glad I did! Up and down is the way the weather goes these days!
I watched part of the Packers game yesterday and the players and spectators were so wrapped up the weather must have been below freezing! I don't know how those guys can play in short sleeves and barehanded. They sure had heavy coats put on them when they got off the field! That is why I stay in Florida! No place like home!
We had a Thanksgiving service yesterday, which reminded me of all I have to be thankful for, and moved one long time old friend to come up to me and show his appreciation for our longtime friendship.
I went to the park a couple times and was kind of surprised to see people out even in the overcast weather. Ibis, turtles and egrets were also visible, and there must have been a gator near the bridge, because a small crowd was looking over at the water. God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Psalm 103
Praise the Lord, I tell myself:
with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name.
Praise the Lord, I tell myself,
and never forget the good things he does for me.
He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases.
He ransoms me from death
and surrounds me with love and tender mercies.
He fills my life with good things.
My youth is renewed like the eagle's.
The Lord gives righteousness and
justice to all who are treated unfairly...( to be con't)
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving,
joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
