This, the third day of being home after a Thanksgiving vacation, is still giving me pleasant thoughts from all the excitement that occurred during my visit with my youngest son, and family. Also my daughter, and son-in-law, added to the laughter that left us with sore tummies. A new game was introduced to us by my college granddaughter, and we couldn’t laugh normally because of a mouth-piece placed in our mouths. It was the most hilarious invention that’s ever been created. I can see why the inventor cashed in on over a million dollars on the bright idea. Our facial expressions didn’t change because we were muzzled, but we all but rolled on the floor with funny gestures. Our funny bones had to be free to keep us from dying with laughter, that we couldn’t make. It was a “once-in-a-lifetime” evening of fun, and body exercise. Leave it to the new generation to make the older ones live longer. God bless them.
I still need a few days to get back in the groove of being alone, and nothing at home seems interesting. However, I would not be anywhere else, except but for a few days at a time. I do normally enjoy my home, and the space it gives me. It certainly is my comfort zone. No one, nor nobody can interfere with my visits with Jesus each night before I go to bed. Although He already knows everything I’ve done that day, I still tell Him again what He already knows. I think He expects that from us. It’s called “closeness,” and we need to stay close to our Heavenly Father, who gives us our daily bread, and protects us from all harm. It is times like these when we kneel beside our bed, and unload all our joys, and concerns, that God refills us with faith, and peace to face a new day. I am thinking of going to the Citizen’s Center next Wednesday. I haven’t been in any hurry to go anywhere since I’ve been back home, but have started to think about it. Once I make that move, I believe I will even enjoy my time with friends more than ever before. I just can’t explain the uplifting I brought home with me. I’m spending a lot of time now in concentration on what I want to change in my future, or might I say, do I want to change anything? I truly believe the change will come automatically if I will be patient, and let God have His way in my life. Until then I will be content to do the things I’ve been doing for the past five years since I became a widow. I didn’t want for any good comments while I was gone. I am so thankful for true friends, and family. Surly I am pleasing God, or I would have a different feeling than I have now. I pray I can continue to do so. May God bless all my readers.
God Bless
