A last minute look outside before closing up for the night, I saw this lovely red streak as the sun was going underground. I took a picture and wanted to share it. I was almost closed off from this interesting sight since two garages were blocking my view. I had to get the picture going through the little space between them. Then houses were behind the garages so I couldn’t get close to the ground. I did get a little of the beauty before it quickly went away. I am so thankful for the sun, the moon, and the stars. They always give me encouragement when I see them. Mainly because I see God in them. Today has been a busy one so I needed this sunset to cheer me up from all the hassle of trying to do things right. I finished a portrait today of Donald Trump and will post it tomorrow. I was anxious to finish it before he gets nominated for the GOP candidacy for president. I didn’t work on it very long and I’m sure that will be noticed. I did get it partly right. No doubt he will hate it if possibly he ever sees it, but I can handle that.
Tomorrow will be another busy day for me. I will be meeting a friend for lunch at the Center. I’m sure I won’t get much done at home, but we need to take care of our social life as well as our work life. This friend means a lot to me, and I’m proud to be having lunch with her tomorrow. There is nothing more important than having friends who are friends indeed. I am thankful to have several of just such ones. I can never repay my friends, but I am sure going to try with God’s help.
My son, Rick, is home from the hospital, but his leg with the blood clot is still very sore. He is recovering slowly. I miss all the things he did for me, but I know he will be o k soon. His company is worth a lot to me. I never feel lonely anymore. He does excellent at trying to please me, and that’s saying a lot for him. I am just as concerned about making him happy. I thank God every day for my children and grandchildren.
I just have to mention the Pope coming to America today. That’s about all that’s been on TV. I find it hard to believe that so many people actually look to a man on this earth to give almighty praise and honor to. So many people won’t believe in anything unless they can see it. Jesus is the only one worthy of our praise, and I don’t have to see Him, I can feel Him near me every minute of the day and night. I don’t judge the Catholics or any other religion, but I don’t want them to judge mine either. I have accepted Jesus as my savior, and am living by His grace, not by any old testament law. That’s all I know to say.
God Bless
