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! This is another perfect day as was yesterday, A little chilly for me because I am sitting and not getting my blood warmed up, but outside the sun is shining and the temp has warmed up to the low seventies. Very invigorating!
I have a lot to do today, including shopping, but first I have laundry to do. Brian came over to help me get more decorations out, and he also put the recycle bin at the curb. It was full this time.
Last night I was in the living room reading the paper, when I heard a loud "beep, beep.." it sounded like it was coming from the bedroom, so I got up and checked and all was quiet. I had had a happening with the computer a couple nights ago when it had the same loud beep and a full screen warning came on telling me to call an 888 number for tech help. I thought it was the same problem, but then I heard the same thing while having breakfast this morning. It turns out that it was the car across the street and the noise came from the alarm! Maybe a child is playing with the keys...
I was on the road a lot for me yesterday, with stops at the library, the cleaners...dropping off my summer Amish quilt for its annual cleaning, and then back to the library to choose a few more books. As I was coming out a woman with two elementary children with her complimented me on my pink and black top. Unexpected things like that are day brighteners!
After leaving the library, I drove to the Park and saw lots of activity with the middle sized gopher escaping into the underbrush and an anhinga on his favorite perch drying out the wings. On the way home, I passed Lynch Lake where a large flock of ibis was resting and ducks were taking a siesta. God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Psalm 138:6-8
Though the Lord is great, he cares for the humble,
but he keeps his distance from the proud.
Though I am surrounded by troubles,
you will preserve me against the anger of my
enemies.
You will clench your fist against my angry enemies!
Your power will save me.
The Lord will work out his plans for my life---
for your faithful love , O Lord, endures forever.
Don't abandon me, for you made me.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving,
joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
