"A Christmas Season Welcome"

The thermometer on my porch shows 54 degree. It was suppose to have been much colder than that. 11-30-2018 Perryton, TX

I was amazed at the nice day we have had today. Yesterday it looked like a bad cold front was moving in, and the weather report suggested that. It has been in the fifties all day. There is some wind, but not too bad to enjoy being outside some. It was comfortable with just a sweeter on. The sun has not been hid all day. Just clear skies, and a trace of white clouds. I truly am thankful for the part of the earth I live in. Very seldom do we have threatening weather like heavy snow storms, or tornadoes. I have never heard of an earthquake happening within several hundred miles form where I live. We did have a severe grass fire about two years ago, but that was one in many years. I'm not saying we can always expect to be safe from these acts of nature, but as long as we are mostly missed of such destructive happenings, I am very thankful. I also realize that any time a major force of destruction happens any where in America we all are affected in some way. Today we are hearing of the 7.0 earthquake in Alaska. We have yet to hear how much damage or if any lives were lost, but to say the least it was a bad, natural attack to an important part of our country. This particular event was definitely caused by an act of God. No human fault can be blamed for it, except if it was punishment for human disobedience to God. That may not sound politically correct by many, but it's time to recognize the Godly correctness. I believer these things happen to make people aware of a greater power than a group of ungodly politicians. I wonder how many more disastrous events will have to happen before people wake up to the fact that God is still in control.

My joy will never be taken from me permanently, because, “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able, to do that which He's committed unto me until that day.” Yes, we must take time to grieve, and pray for the victims of unfortunate circumstances, but we must also keep the victory in our hearts. If God be with us, who can be against us? By faith we are saved, by faith we are healed, and by faith we are more than conquerors over sin. The best weapon we have to fight sin is faith. Sin is when we do things that our hearts tell us not to do, not what someone else's heart tells us what to do. When it's time to stop doing something that we are tackling, God will let us know before it gets out of hand. If only people would understand that, this world would be a much better place to live. Common sense is also a good weapon to fight sin. Let us use our faith, and common sense more, and leave other people to use their own.

God Bless

"A Change Of Thought Today"

This picture of the sun is not what I was seeing when I snapped the camera button. I saw a perfectly round-like ball of fire. Dark clouds were hanging over the sun. I sensed a big change of weather. 11-29-2018 Perryton, TX

 

I took the trash out today with only a light sweater on. The sun was shinning so bright till I had to close my eyes, and hope I had it focused in the camera lens. The picture turned out just light and dark, no color. Much of the sky was dark blue with huge black clouds closing in. The sun was the brightest I had ever seen on the other side of the globe. There is sure to be a change in weather tomorrow. I got all the strawberry plants covered with straw. They still had blooms on them. I quickly finished my work, and headed back to my comfort zone. I unloaded the pictures, and am now trying to share the results with my readers. I am unable to add the other pic that shows the dark blue sky and both white, and black clouds. My curiosity is not wanting to let go. Does it mean nothing, or does it mean a big something? Whatever, I'm set for a quit, comfortable evening. I have a new bottle of non-alcoholic juice cocktail, and a dish of peanuts. The news is ripe with repeats, and I will patiently be waiting for something I haven't heard before. I do hope I live long enough to hear the end of this episode. After two years I'm beginning to doubt. 

I can say I have had a good day. Being with my son, Chuck, has been both peaceful, and enjoyable. Each day he opens up more, and more to share his memories, and interest with me. Nothing short of a miracle has happened in his life. A long, long time of prayer has been answered. That is just to name one of the many prayers that has been answered for me recently most of which have been on my prayer list for years. I will continue to believe for many more request I have asked God for. I will never say never again, because I have been proven to be wrong too many times to say that word again. We are subject to God's will no matter what we want to think. I'm so glad to have someone controlling my life that will never let me go wrong. That someone is God, and no one else. I don't know where I will be next week, or if I will be doing something that I had said never to, but I do know I am listening to that Heavenly voice, and will follow where ever it leads, even if it leads no where but here. “Here I am Lord, send me where I need to go.”

Good night all. I am ready to start my evening of relaxation, and hopefully I will have a good night's sleep. I hope the same for you.

God Bless

"The Door Where Jesus Dwells"

It's been fun decorating for Christmas this year, I think my youth is returning, 11-28-2018 Perryton, TX

Each day I add another decoration. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and I'm beginning to feel like a child again. I just hope no one buys me a Barbie doll for Christmas. However, my son told me he was expecting a great big present this year. I told him to tell Santa and not me. I think I am going to waste $69.00 plus tax and buy him a gift I saw today. It is in a great big box with a drone-like instrument inside. It almost looks scary, and fly's by remote control power. From what I could see it would fly high, and far with wicked success. The box said for 8 years and up. My son is 50 so that's up. Please don't tell him what he might be getting. His two children are both grown and out of college. He doesn't have any grandchildren so this wicked destroyer would have to be operated by him alone. The box that this unlawful, enemy fighter comes in is about 2+4 feet. I think that could pass for a great big present. We use to always have a lot of fun at Christmas, but for the past several years it has just been a time to remember those fun times. Maybe things are going to change. A little fun, and a lot of seriousness equals permanent happiness. It's time to say good-bye to all tears.

I enjoyed getting back with friends at the Center today. The new art was hanging so nicely, and a big beautiful tree had been decorated. All the tables were showing a different kind of Christmas atmosphere, and made the heart rejoice. The next entire month will be a fun, and exciting time. Then a new year will deliver to us blessings like we've never had before. Believe it, and you will receive it. Changes will come of course, but all for the good. A lot will have to do with our own attitude. Paul, the Apostle said, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” I believe that, and I will be trying hard to prove it this new year. Our life must be hid from any praise we might have of ourselves. The bible says “hide thyself behind the cross, and lift up Jesus.” Any other praise is counterfeit. If anyone wants to become less liked than already, just continue to elevate yourself. They will be given an automatic delete. And there is no way they can deny it, because your sins will find you out.

As I shopped today in several different stores I saw many smiles as I met people. I don't know who smiled first, and it doesn't matter. Just remember “smile and the world smiles with you.” Thank God for smiles when the heart is broken with pain and grief.” These same people are hiding behind the cross. God sees them when others do not.

God Bless
