It seems to be a "law" these days that when the doctor finds what it takes to fix one problem, another one shows up! I've never been to so many doctors in one month in all my life...not even when the boys were small. Ah, the life of the older generation! It is definitely July in Florida this week...WOW! probably because I don't really get out into the heat of the day too often these "feels like triple digits" really knock me over. Thank goodness I'm not a roofer, although, if someone is blessed to have the work, maybe they can rest more often. Our congregation isn't too large, but last evening we met to do nothing but pray for our nation to humble ourselves and repent...starting with each of us of course. Judgement starts at the house of God...we've just been so blessed in this country with the freedom to worship anywhere at anytime that we have taken it for granted I guess. Lord, give us wisdom to humble ourselves before You! I received the book "Clay in the Potter's Hand" by Dorothy Sun who has had an amazing life with Jesus. These days my concentration isn't so good, but I am looking forward to delving into this book after which it will be passed around.

Hello There World. I'm not sure I will write exactly what I have on my mind. Growing up in the southern United States we were taught to sort of guard our words in most circumstances. I guess that was a good thing, but it persists even to this time in my life. My husband was a pastor from the 60's and pastor's wives were "just so". That's especially hard for a one time "tom boy"! I seemed to always have foot in mouth trouble! Well, that's ok because I'm here writing my ideas right out loud! I'm so thankful for loving parents who took me to church and helped me learn about Jesus! In retrospect, it's possible they never understood His grace because it was a time of "don't do this" and make sure you "do this" in actions relating to "being a Christian". Thank you, Father, for teaching as we go along. I can remember as a child, believing that when God saved your soul, He would just pore all things you needed to know about Him into your head at one time..sort of like turning on the hose and holding it over your head!! Thank goodness I was completely WRONG on that! Have you asked The Holy Spirit to show you where you need to change? and then ask Him to STOP? It may be the single most humbling event of my life! PS..I just realized today would have been my 55th wedding anniversary! Seems like the other day and then again it's more like a dream...
