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! More warm temps and slight breezes continue, which makes it feel more like spring than almost Christmas! We are blessed to have such beautiful weather right now!
Well, I got more decorating done yesterday, but not the outside lights, yet. I still have a lot more to do, but a little day by day gets things done. I was called in to the doctor's office yesterday to take a breathing test. Fortunately, I still am, and passed with good grades! After that, I zipped over to Krispy Kreme and bought three donuts to take home to my cleaning ladies who were hard at work while I was gone. I had a cruller, and they had a chocolate cream filled and glazed chocolate. Yum! They stopped work immediately so they could have a snack and really appreciated it! I also heard more about their train trip from Hollywood to Tampa and how much they enjoyed it. Only $39 one way and a four hour trip without worries about the traffic! Sounds like the way to go!
Later, I drove to the Park, and saw an unusual sight...a roseate spoonbill very close to an anhinga on the weir. Looked like beauty and the beast! As I drove on in, I pulled in and watched the very large, gopher tortoise at the entrance to his new tunnel. Apparently, he got tired before he slid in and just put his head down for a little nap.
Also, speaking of wildlife, as I opened the sidedoor in the garage, a pretty black snake slithered off against the house. He was either snacking on ants, or looking for water, as it is still very dry around here. But God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Praise the Lord from the heavens!
Praise him from the skies!
Praise him, all his angels!
Praise him all the armies of heaven!
Praise him, sun and moon!
Praise him all you twinkling stars!
Praise him, skies above!
Praise him, vapors high above the clouds!
Let every created thing give praise to the Lord,
for he issued his command and they came into being.
He established them forever and forever.
His orders will never be revoked.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving,
joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
