Good morning to you on this great day!

This is the day which the Lord hath made; 
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24 


Maybe the sun will shine today. Maybe it will not rain. And maybe, just maybe, we can rejoice and be glad in this day that the Lord has made. 

The sun is coming out. Praise God! I knew you would bless us with that, O Lord! May it stay out all day and may You bless us with Your warmth, O God! 

I have noticed that the days are getting a little shorter every day. We are approaching fall and then winter will come. But the exciting thing about that is that after winter is the spring again. The beautiful days of spring! Oh, I look forward to that. And the fall will be be here in a few weeks. The leaves will show the drying of the air and the beauty of the colors. Hopefully with all the rain that we have had, the fall leaves will be spectacular. The glory of the Lord will shine through the colors! How awesome will that be!

God has truly given us the beauty of the earth. And I can't praise Him enough for that. I guess that is why I like to travel so much. I want to see all the beauty that God has to offer. I don't understand how people cannot believe in God when His beauty shines forth. Who else could have made it all? No one or nothing in all the earth could have created all things the way that God did. 

For in six days the LORD made the heavens 
and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, 
and rested the seventh day. Therefore the 
LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
Exodus 20:11

Then Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and 
said: "O LORD God of Israel, the One who dwells 
between the cherubim, You are God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
2 Kings 19:15

I praise God for His awesome creation. And He created us to be in His image. But the great thing is that we are not finished yet. We still have room to grow and flourish like a flower. 

So, read His Word, talk to Him, worship Him, grow in Him, and you will flourish and be more like Him every day. Praise God!

Have a fabulous day!

Choosing Jesus Every Day: Don't Be Lazy

...to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:2b-3 Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Greetings And to us all! I have not written here in 5 months. Forgive me! Life is so busy these days. My husband, Bert, and I thought retirement would be less busy and more, well retired. But that is okay! I believe we are following the path that God wants us on at this time of our lives and that He knows best. So, praise be to our God and Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, for His great guidance! My devotion this morning was very interesting. Bert and I have had this conversation many times when he was still working full time and pastoring. We discussed the fact that our house needs attention. A house will fall if it is not taken care of. And, of course, he was work

KNOW HIM

I took this picture yesterday. It was amazing!   Good morning to you on  this blessed and chilly day! May God fill you with His love and His Spirit. He is awesome! He is miraculous! He is the great I AM! He is the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last! He is our Lord of lords and King of kings. He is my Savior! Is He yours? Jesus is coming back soon. Do you know Him? I am going to share this video with you again. I shared it once before and it is amazing. We can never hear it enough. And if you don't know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, listen very carefully. That's My King Dr. S.M. Lockridge This video says it all! If you don't know Him, get to know Him. Read God's Word. Fellowship with other believers in church and out of church. Talk to Him in prayer.  Now I am not saying that believers are perfect but far from it. We are all on a journey to know Him better. Churches are not a hotel for saints, but a hospital

VICTORY

Saturday Good morning to you! The beach is waiting. I can't wait to get away. To rest. To regenerate. To be revived. And sometimes we just need to get away from our daily routine in order to do that. Get away from the phone and stuff like that. Unfortunately, with cell phones, these days we don't get away from the calls. It never fails that we go on vacation and always someone calls about my husband's work, either a person that works for him or someone wanting to get work done. But in all reality that is good. It means that the business is not dead. Praise the Lord for that! The beach does so much for me. I have the best time and the most relaxing time at the beach. I guess it is in my blood. I was born at the beach (a town at the beach). I lived near the beach for about 15 of my growing up years. My grandparents built a house in Malibu, CA overlooking the ocean when I was a kid. (When I find the picture I will post it.) So, I feel like I belong there and I
