Waiting for shish kebab's to cook on the grill. Some of my family at my son's house. 6-22-2019 Perryton, TX
The following evening
after myself, my daughter, my son-in-law, and one of my grandsons
arrived at Kent, and Angela's house shish kebabs was grilling while
the family sat around the pool visiting. It was a lovely evening, and
the dinner was scrumptious. We had traveled several hundred miles to
be there so we were treated with the best of everything. We all had
had breakfast that morning at a nice restaurant. To say it truthfully
I ate more than I should while there, and I gained five pounds. But I
would do it all over again if I could. I had lots of fun, and the
time I spent with family was priceless. I came home ready to get
going again. Before I made this trip I had almost stopped going out
anywhere, It was definitely time to get away for awhile. I got home
yesterday, and already I went out tonight with the Widowed Group for
dinner at our nice Lake Restaurant. It was an evening of relaxing
with some very wonderful people. Tomorrow morning is church, and the
next morning is Senior Citizen's lunch at the Center. Yes, I think I
have recuperated from my addition of political news, and now I am
free to go and do the things I've always enjoyed doing. I don't mean
that I have withdrawn from all the important world news, but it will
be second on my priority list. My painting will be first, then a
little news, with dress up time for going out next.
My bedtime prayers will
continue for out President as he fights to keep our country safe.
That is about all I can do for him, but that will be enough. God is
the answer to all our problems, and it doesn't take long to ask Him
to help us. What I can't do, God has someone else who can. That's the
way He works. We all are his helpers, and He uses us all in some way.
Hallelujah, to His name. We should all be shouting instead of
worrying. Someway, somehow, I plan to stop worrying, and start
claiming His blessings even though I may be blind to them now. We
live by faith, and not by sight. That is to say I will be humble, not
foolish. I will be patient, not overzealous. I will be content, not
wish-washy. At least that will be my goal. I do feel like we
sometimes mistake our blessing for something someone did for us that
we were not expecting, and thought it just to be out of one's love
for us. We thank the person instead of God. We should thank them
both. I usually do, but still remember the person's gift longer than
God's gift. How can God bless us lest it come from earthly means?
Even healing comes through the hands of doctors. Of course I know
there has been healing without doctors, but remember Jesus was a
Physician while here on earth. I still believe He is the great
Physician over all others. Trust Him now, and always. Amen.
God Bless
