WE CAN DO IT




Good morning to you!
I pray that you had a blessed Thanksgiving! We sure did. It was just the two of us. It was too quiet and kind of lonely. But we cooked a 16 lb. turkey mostly for the left overs. We can eat turkey sandwiches, make soup, and turkey and dumplings. And we put some in the freezer. We do love turkey. My husband made us each a half turkey and avocado sandwich last night that was so awesome. I would never have thought of putting avocado on it but it was scrumptious!

Our wonderful neighbors did invite us when they found out we were alone on Thanksgiving but we declined because we already had our turkey ready to pop in the oven. We did go have dessert with them. And that was delicious also.

I was making a list of things going on in the next few weeks. Oh my! I woke up at 1:30 AM and couldn't go back to sleep so I finally got up and went in my daughters old room and laid on the bed and tried to make that list. The next few weeks are so busy. My dance card is full!

I am totally depending on God in this whole month. My calendar is full but my blessings runneth over! I look forward to our children and families being here for Christmas. And I do count my blessings one by one!

If my calendar is full this month then so is yours. I have some days where there is so many different things are going on in the same day. But with God's help, I can do it and I will rejoice and be glad in it. Hallelujah!

Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Have a magnificent Monday!

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...

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...

DROUGHT

  Good morning to you! Has it been raining where you are? It rained pretty good last night here. We need it. Actually we will take it all just so we aren't in the drought category. I saw on the weather yesterday that a lot of the country is in a severe drought.  Are you in a severe drought spiritually? I hope not but if you are, here are some scriptures that might help. Look to the LORD and his  strength; seek his face always. 1 Chronicles 16:11 The LORD is my strength and  my song; he has become my salvation.  He is my God, and I will praise him,  my father's God, and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:2 So do not fear, for I am with you;  do not be dismayed, for I am your  God. I will strengthen you and help you;  I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.   Isaiah 41:10 Do you not know? Have you not heard?  The LORD is the everlasting God, the  Creator of the ends of the e...
