"Take Matters Into Your Own Hands If It Really Matters"

Just west of the bright moon at 8:00 p.m. the sky was a glowing red. How interesting it is to view all the beauty in the sky. 3-31-2015 Perryton, Texas.
                   It is still daylight and the moon is this bright. 8:00 p.m. 3-31-2015 Perryton, Texas.


After buzzing through a busy day I took my normal last look for the day toward the sky. I saw beauty that I just couldn’t pass up from taking pictures there of. It is at times like these that I feel so close to God. I treasure these pictures, and the feelings that they give me. I can go to bed and rest in peace.

I made a trip to Liberal, Kansas today to get some frame work done for some of my paintings. I made the usual trip to Walmart’s and shopped for several items there. When I returned home it was almost time to go to the Center for “breakfast at night.” I was a little tired, but did enjoy the food and fellowship a lot. It has been a good day and hopefully I will fall asleep quickly tonight.

Each day before I retire for the night I recall all the things that I have met with during the day. Whether in be physical, mental, or imaginary. It is during this thought process that I decide if I am crazy or just plain impossible. This quite, and devoted time, is spiritual food for my soul. I finish my day with a prayer, and the reading of a whole chapter in the bible. Many of you will never know how often your name is mentioned by me when I am praying my nightly prayer. I believe God lays every soul on someone’s heart so that no one is left out of His merciful, tender loving care. Someone, somewhere, is praying even for the evil one’s who cut off the heads of innocent people. We might say, “not me,” but someone is. That’s why I ask myself sometimes if I am crazy or just impossible. I cannot dwell on that thought or I would become un-level  headed and be headed for a home for the blanks. My prayers are always for those who are responsible for keeping the better part’s of the world safe and risking their own lives to do so. This does not mean just soldiers in uniforms, but men and women making quick, and dreadful decisions sometimes. Leaders so to speak, Missionaries and the lists goes on. Let us always remember to pray for them. Pray is what keeps the world going. When prayer is gone the world is gone, and I wonder just how much further we have to go. I don’t like the change I’ve seen this world make in just the past very few years. Whether you want to admit it or not, this world is full of evil and getting worse by the day. Some of us has the advantage with our age, but how I hurt for the younger ones who cannot escape that horrible and notable day. It’s time for those who have been pitying themselves for less important things to stop and take notice of what you are doing. Everyone knows their heart and I hope they reconsider some of the pity they have been plagued with.

God Bless
