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! I have not seen much of the sun yet, because of fog, but we will surely have sunshine soon. The air is a little cooler than it has been, so this promises to be another beautiful day!
As I was driving the other day, I noticed an unusual cloud formation right in front of me..a row of breaking wave type clouds. I don't know what they are called, but I have seen them before on Paul Dellegatto"s FB page. Since I was driving, obviously, I could not take a pic. But the clouds lasted a long time. It pays to look up!
Well, my malfunctioning toilet was fixed in five minutes yesterday! Rick, my handyman, took a look and found that a hose was loose and spraying water up and out of the tank, so he cut the ends off, reinserted them and now it works! Yay! He also worked in the yard raking leaves and filled 16 bags. It's sort of frustrating to me to pay two different people to work on the yard, but the yard crew does not take time to rake and bag. They just mow, edge, blow and go. Sigh.
Yesterday was taco Tuesday, so I bought a couple tacos and cruised through the park on my way home from shopping. I saw a couple herons and a black turtle, and a few people hanging over the rail, maybe looking at baby gators. The tacos were still warm when I got home and I enjoyed them. God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Psalm 34:15-22
The eyes of the Lord watch over those who do right;
his ears are open to their cries for help.
For the Lord turns his face against those who do evil;
he will erase their memory from the earth;
The Lord hears his people when they call to him for help,
he rescues them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted;
he rescues those who are crushed in spirit.
The righteous face many troubles,
but the Lord rescues them from each and every one.
For the Lord protects them from harm---
not one of their bones will be broken!
Calamity will surely overtake the wicked,
and those who hate the righteous will be punished.
But the Lord will redeem those who serve him.
Everyone who trusts in him will be freely pardoned.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving,
joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
