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! The temp is not out of the sixties yet, and will be dropping steadily all day, because of the cold air leaking down from the north. Boo! The sun was shining dimly a few minutes ago, but now clouds are moving in, so looks like I won't be able to see Jupiter next to the moon tonight. Guess I'll have to wait until 2021! Ha.
Well, the birthday celebration continued yesterday, with a "surprise" lunch, with balloons and a big bag of gifts from Mari and Kris. The original plan had been to have it outside at Parkshore Grille, but due to the parade. Beach Drive was closed, so the Hangar made do nicely. We ate outside, because the day was comfortable, although every now and then, the breeze made it a bit cooler than we would have liked. It was fun watching the planes take off and land, and the Safari chopper make several trips. The clouds rolled in while we were there and being on the second floor, it was a good place to see the different formations. It was a fun time and very thoughtful of my friends. God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
1 John 1:5-10
This is the message he has given us to announce to you.
God is light and there is no darkness in him at all.
So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God
but go on living in spiritual darkness. We are not living
in the truth. But if we are living in the light of God's
presence, just as Christ is, then we have fellowship
with each other, and the blood of Jesus His Son, cleanses
us from every sin.
If we say we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves
and refusing to accept the truth. But if we confess our sins
to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us
from every wrong. If we claim we have not sinned, we are
calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place
in our hearts.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis

Let God Guide the Way
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! Lots of sunshine today and what a beautiful day it promises to be! A little cool, but nice. Yesterday was nice and warmed up so that I only needed a light jacket for cool buildings.
I had a wonderful birthday celebration day, with lots of hugs from people at church and Facebook was full of greetings from all over the US. God has blessed me with many friends! Brian took me to the Olive Garden at my request and I had a slice of cake served with singing greetings and a candle! Cute and embarrassing. Then I got a call from David in the afternoon and drove over to his house to take him his long delayed birthday card, while he gave me mine. It was good to have chat time with him.
After that I watched football games and topped it off with a baked apple to celebrate the Ravens win! God is good!
From the little devotional book; Knowing God:
Let God Guide the Way;
The true children of God are those who let God's spirit lead them.
Romans 8:14 NCV
The Bible promises that God will guide you if you let Him.
Your job is to let Him. But sometimes , you will be tempted to
do otherwise. Sometimes you'll be tempted to go along with
the crowd; other times, you'll be tempted to do things your
way. When you feel these temptations, resist them.
God has promised that when we ask for His help, He will not
withhold it, so ask. Ask Him to meet the needs of your day.
Ask Him to lead you, to protect you, and to correct you. And
trust the answers He gives.
God stands at the door and waits. When you knock, He opens.
When you ask, He answers. Your task, of course to seek His
guidance prayerfully, confidently, and often.
Today' Prayer-
Dear Lord, thank you for your constant presence and your constant love.
I draw near to You this day with the confidence that you are ready to
guide me. Help me walk closely with You, Father, and help me share
Your Good News with all who cross my path.
Amen
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis

Greetings from Peter
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! Wow! What a change in the weather! Yesterday it was 70 at this time and today it has climbed up to 50! When I arose, it was 48! From A/C to heat in just a couple of days! I put the heavy blanket on the bed yesterday and was glad of it last night. But my fingers are cold as I type this.
Well, at least it is not ice and it is not snow and the sun will probably come out soon, so I am not complaining. (Much)
Since it was rainy and gloomy most of the day yesterday, I just decided to stay in and read. I made a nice hot cup of tea in the afternoon and was just lazy. Felt good! God is good! ( I just received a beautiful vase of yellow tulips from my sons and grandson! What a spirit lifter for my upcoming birthday!)
From the Promise Bible NLT:
2 Peter 3:3-11
Growing in the Knowledge of God
As we know Jesus better, His divine power gives us
everything we need for living a Godly life. He has
called us to receive His own glory and goodness.
And by that same mighty power, he has given us all
of his rich and wonderful promises. He has promised
That you will escape the decadence all around you
caused by evil desires and that you will share in his
divine nature.
So make every effort to apply the benefits of these
promises to your life. Then your faith will produce
a life of moral excellence. A life of moral excellence
leads to knowing God better. Knowing God leads
to self control . Self-control leads to patient endurance,
and patient endurance leads to godliness. Godliness
leads to love for other Christians, and finally you
will grow to have genuine love for everyone. The
more you grow like this, the more you will become
productive and useful in your knowledge of our Lord
Jesus Christ.
But those who fail to develop these virtues are blind
or at least very shortsighted. They have already forgotten
that God has cleansed them from their old life of sin.
So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove
that you really are among those God has called and
chosen.Doing this, you will never stumble or fall away
And God will open wide the gates of heaven for you
to enter into the Eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,

Praise Him!
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! An unusual sight greets me when I look out the window this morning...rain dripping off the roof! The cold front we have been expecting has gone through and brought some much needed showers.
Jason, my yard man, was already here and mowed and mulched the fallen leaves and cleaned out the overflowing rain gutters...all this before the rain started. When he cleaned out the gutters, he just dropped the muddy stuff on the porch, instead of putting it in the dumpster, so the porch got muddy, which did not get blown off. However, I am hoping the rain will wash it clean, so when it dries, I can sweep the dirt off. But, at least the rain should flow freely down the gutter!
My cleaning ladies came yesterday, an hour late, but they had just done a house three times larger than mine, that had two dogs, so it took an extra long time to do it, because it had not been cleaned for a month! They wore out their vacuum on the house, so it quit to rest for awhile, so they had to use mine while cleaning my house. They are good at what they do, and I always enjoy them.
When I was in the park Tuesday, I saw such an unusual sight I forgot to mention. A family of Amish/Mennonite were walking around the entrance lakes and the canal, just enjoying looking at the water, Nothing unusual, except maybe turtles sunning on the banks, but what delighted me, was that the girls had on long, nightgown like dresses of a light, airy fabric, and the boys were both wearing long dark pants and light blue long sleeved shirts. No dark hats, but they still looked like miniature adults. The ladies were wearing longish dresses, but there were no men in the group. It reminded me of how they look and dress in Indiana around Amish country. Such a peaceful, calm way of life. Part of my heritage! God is good!
(BTW, my computer was down all day, and did not get fixed until about 6 last night, after I had called my repair man. It was a problem he had not seen before, but he figured it out!)
From the little devotional book Knowing God:
Psalm 138:1 I will praise you with my whole heart.If you're like most folks on the planet, you're busy. Your life
if probably hectic, demanding, and complicated. And when the
demands of life leave you rushing from place to place with
scarcely a moment to spare, you may not take time to
praise your Creator. Big mistake.
'The Bible makes it clear ; it pays to praise God.
Worship and praise should be a part of everything
you do. Otherwise, you quickly lose perspective as you
fall prey to the demands of everyday life.
Do you sincerely desire to know God in a more meaningful
way? Then praise Him for who He is and for what He has
done for you. And please don't wait until Sunday morning-
praise Him all day long, every day, for as long as you live...
and then for all eternity.
Great Thoughts-
Maintaining a focus on God will take our praise to heights that
nothing else can.

Psoaring thru Psalm 146
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! We will finally be getting into winter in the next day or two! Although it will be just a few degrees cooler, still, maybe the winter clothes are not ready to be put away. It was definitely cooler this morning, but now the sun is shining and that is always warm. I bought a faux leather jacket last year and have only worn it once, and that was on a bike ride. Felt good, too!
Yesterday, I got a lot accomplished, but I still do not understand why I can write a list to take to the supermarket, and still manage to come out without something I had written down. Grrr! Maybe it would help if I would read the list and not rely on memory.... The first trip I made was to Walmart to gas up the van. I had heard on the news that gas prices are going up, and I was needing it, so off I went and was glad to see it was lower there than other gas stations I passed . Of course, I get 5 cents off the listed price with my Walmart credit card. Every little bit helps!
I finished up my running around by going to the park and saw turtles sunning on the bank of the weir, and a tightly knit group of ibis on one of the hills around the canal. There were quite a few people there, enjoying the outdoors. Then, coming home around Lynch Lake, I saw a group of wood storks huddled together, napping. I have never seen that many together before. God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Psalm 146
Praise the Lord, I tell myself.
I will praise the Lord as long as I live.
I will sing praises to my God even with my dying breath.
Don't put your confidence in powerful people;
there is no help for you there.
When their breathing stops they return
to the earth, and in a moment all their plans come to an end.
But happy are those who have the God
of Israel as their helper,
whose hope is in the Lord their God.
He is the one who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them.
He is the one who keeps every promise forever,
who gives justice to the oppressed
and food to the hungry.
The Lord frees the prisoners.
The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts the burdens of those
bent beneath their loads,
The Lord loves the righteous.
The Lord protects the foreigners among us.
He cares for the orphans and widows,
but he frustrates the plans of the wicked.
The Lord will reign forever.
O Jerusalem, your God is King in
every generation!
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!

Psoaring thru Psalm 147:1-6
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! The sun is shining, and the wind is blowing and the leaves are falling! Ah, another day in paradise! People around here are wondering where winter went, because of the wonderful, warm temps. Once again, we are supposed to be in the eighties, although it is quite a bit cooler than that right now.
I swept about three bushels of leaves off the porch Saturday, and, as I sit typing this, they are falling like rain just outside my window. There are plenty more left on the oaks, so it's not over yet! I had a pleasant weekend. After leaving the hair salon, I traveled down 1st Ave. So. and saw the new C1 bank signs on the Times building, where my son works. Pretty outstanding, with the Green Devil green and white colors! Good old SPHS!
Beach Drive was full of cars and people as usual.It is good to see such a lively, thriving city!
Then, later, I visited the park and that was busy, too. I saw the gopher tortoise just going into his hole with only his backside showing. I also enjoyed the sight of an egret posed with curvy neck looking for a tasty fish for lunch! People and dogs, ibis and squirrels,; the usual sights at the park. God is good!
From the Promise Bible NLT:
Psalm 147:1-6
How good it is to sing praises to our God!
How delightful and how right!
The Lord is rebuilding Jerusalem
and bringing the exiles back to Israel.
He heals the brokenhearted
binding up their wounds.
He counts the stars and calls them all by name.
How great is our Lord! His power is absolute!
His understanding is beyond comprehension!
The Lord supports the humble,
but he brings the wicked down into the dust.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis

He Keeps Us Singing
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! Another is our series of summer in January days is here! Yesterday, I gave up and turned on the A/C. I had been out running errands and visiting my podiatrist, and it was hot! I chatted with the doctor about helicopters, restaurants and news while he worked on my toes and toe nails. He is a dyed in the wool New Yorker with accent to match! Apparently, a lot of people have trouble with their feet, because he is always busy!
As I was traveling here and there, I happened to see a large bird soaring up and realized it was a hawk! His wingspan was very large and I wished that I had not been driving, so I could just watch him glide! Majestic! Then I drove to the park and saw the full canal which is mostly cleaned of all the lilies and, while it was rippling a little, still the trees and egrets were reflected in the mirror-like waters. A dare-devil squirrel raced right across in front of me, as they usually do, and I saw a flock of ibis, ignoring the people walking and hiking. God is good!
From the devotional book Quiet Moments with God:
He put a new song in my mouth. A song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord.
Psalm 40:3 NRSV
Evangelist and singer N. B. Vandall sat quietly in his living room reading his paper when one of his sons rushed into the house crying, "Paul is hurt! A car hit him and dragged him down the street! He was bleeding all over,and somebody came and took him away!"
Vandall found his son at a nearby hospital with serious head injuries, a concussion, and multiple broken bones. The surgeon did not know if he would live. All the distraught father could do was pray as the doctor cleaned and stitched Paul's head wounds and set his broken bones. The rest was up to God.
After coming home to give his family the report, Vandall returned to the living room and fell on his knees with a heartfelt cry of, "Oh, God!" Almost immediately, Vandall could hear God's voice inside him, telling him that no matter what happened in the here and now, all tears will be dried and sorrows will cease in the hereafter. Vandall went to the piano and in minutes wrote a hymn titled "After."
After the toil and the heat of the day,
After my troubles are past,
After the sorrows are taken away,
I shall see Jesus at last.
He will be waiting for me----
Jesus so kind and true;
On his beautiful throne,
He will welcome me home--
After the day is through.
Paul had a near perfect recovery from his injuries, and his father's faith in God
remained strong and steady, his gratitude boundless.
God wants to be with you in the midst of your tribulations, too, putting a song of praise in your mouth. When you turn your focus from your struggles to Him, His awesome power can overcome whatever you are facing.
FAITH MAKES THE UPLOOK
GOOD, THE OUTLOOK BRIGHT,
THE INLOOK FAVORABLE AND
THE FUTURE GLORIOUS.
