And the countdown begins!
Here comes the heat and humidity and I am now counting the days until November. It's usually November before we see the first cool front. I am not a summer person anymore, there was a day when I looked forward to summer fun, but not so much anymore.
With all that said, I will still enjoy being on the porch, with my coffee and talking with the Lord. It's my happy place, among the flowers and watching the birds feasting at their feeder.
My heart is heavy because of all the riots happening through out our country. It's hard to understand why some people think they have to do that to make a point, it's just hate, plain and simple. Satan in full form. He knows his time is short and he's doing all he can to wreck havoc on earth.
We have a powerful weapon, PRAYER . . .
2 Chronicles 7:14
. . . if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

I'm looking forward to next Saturday. The GLOW ladies are going to meet again . . WooHoo! There is a Mexican restaurant close by that has an outdoor patio where we can sit and enjoy being together. We feel being outside gives us an edge of protection against the dreaded virus. I don't know if everyone will attend, some are not ready to get out, and I respect that.
Here's an old GLOW picture of Sandy and I celebrating our birthday. Our birthdays are one day apart and one year apart, we've celebrated together many, many times!
Precious Memories.
We've had some heavy storms come through our area lately, high wind gusts and heavy rain.
This in just a short time, the storm clouds made it so dark the street lights came on!
A small note:
I thought I had finished this blog and had it saved for today, it written yesterday. I just came from facebook where our dear friend Pamela Mursch Steiner from Closed Doors, Open Windows https://pamelasopenwindow.blogspot.com/
had posted something that caused an Amen and Amen from me. I immediately remember a sermon I heard a few days ago about saying, "Amen and Amen." It rolls from me when I feel deeply about a message from God's Word or a message about God's Word.
When Jesus said, "Verily, Verily," what was he saying?
"Verily, verily"or "Truly, truly," "Most assuredly," or "Amen, amen," depends on the translation. All of His "Verily, verily" statements appear in the book of John, and they are used by Christ only when He is about to teach on a profound matter. The doubled "verily" denotes that what follows is of especially weighty and solemn significance, so we are to pay special attention.
And another note:
I have used the 'new blogger' for this post. Why or why did they go and change things? It's not near as user friendly as the old blogger. It will take me a while to find everything and remember where I found it. You'll notice the font from a copy and paste I used is not my default for this blog, I couldn't find a default print anywhere. Yep, this is going to give me problems.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Until Next Time
