"The Sun Never Sleeps Amen"

What you are looking at is the sun leaving us for the day. Welcome back tomorrow. 7-31-2020 Perryton, TX 
 

The sun is turning out the lights. I'm never ready to go to bed, but my body won't let me stay up 24 hours a day. No matter how early I go to bed I never go to sleep till after 1 a.m. My built-in alarm goes off a little after 6 a.m. My average sleep time is 4 to 5 hours. I fall to sleep wishing it would hurry up and be time to get up. I will not take any kind of drugs except my blood pressure, and cholesterol. I do take one aspirin a day, and a B-50. As the doctor ordered. I would rather stay awake than go to sleep from a drug. I have energy plus, but mostly like to recline, and watch Fox News. I can't believe I'm saying all of this on my blog, but probable because I have been busy today, and didn't have anything else to write. When I glanced outside and saw this bright sun about to leave for the day, I just had to take a picture, and write something. I have been crocheting on a rag rug almost all day, and I am very tired, but not ready for bed. If it were possible I would crochet all night. I am anxious to finish it.


While I work on the rug I can watch Fox News, and crochet at the same time. I was extremely interested in several heated Congressional Hearings today, or at least one, and all the comments that followed. My mind works 19 hours a day (given I sleep 5 hours,) just trying to figure out if all this mess we are in as a country, is going to continue to get worse. My faith says victory is ahead, but I believer it is quite away out yet. The worse is yet to come. What we are facing will have a domino effect. I do believe God wants the Christians to prove their trust in him. The only way that can happen for us is to spend a lot of time on our knees every day, not just some days. We must leave no space for Satan to move in our minds, and srart telling us lies. He won't bother us if we keep our minds locked against him. Prayer is the key that locks our minds against evil thoughts. It's not evil to listen to what is happening to God's people. It is evil when we join that wicked group, and try to do our own thing. I listen to a lot of voices, and can name a lot of them by memory. I feel so sure that I can name most of the evil ones who are powerful in our government. I'm thankful that God promised to give us a spirit of decernment if we dedicate our lives to Him. We need to know these evil politician's so we will never vote for them, even though some of them may be of our own political choice. Beware.

"I Am Not A Rasists"

         Representative John Robert Lewis, funeral service today. 7-30-2020 Perryton, TX
 

I watched most of the funeral service for U.S. State Representative, John Lewis, today. I was pleased with everything that was spoken about him, and the singing was beautiful. I have to say the music notes had been changed from what I had known the songs by for many years, but I could make out the words enough to recognize the song. It took me a few moments to decide for sure that the song I dearly love was really what I thought. “If I Can But Help Someone Then My Living Would Not Have Been In Vain.” The singer put so much emotion into it till it was hard to catch all the words. Then another beautiful singer did about the same thing. The song, Take My Hand Precious Lord Lead Me On, again the song was sung with so much emotion I barley could follow her.


The camera gave us several pictures of the funeral attenders, and I was so surprised to see the seemingly small church, had so many empty pews. However, it was a long service, and I was impressed until time for the Eulogy. Ex- President Obama gave what was suppose to be the Eulogy, but turned out to be one of the most disgusting campaign speeches I had ever heard. I believe he spoke longer than the minister.


I had made my dislike for Representative Lewis when he voted to impeach President Trump. Among other things I could not say I had high respect for him. I know he was a Civil Rights Icon, and came into power the hard way, but many, many others have done the same thing, and I believe God is a just God, and everyone has a chance to make their lives what they want. Representative John Lewis will have to answer to God just like everyone else. I do not honor him as a hero, although I do appreciate his work in Congress. I'm sure he made many good choices, and I honor him for those things. He will be rewarded for his good deeds only by his creator, and not by man. As far as I am concerned, the ex-president, Obama, soured the entire funeral. I have been reading on face book where several others feel exactly like I do. We can not let funerals take our minds off the crisis that some of the liberal left have done to us. Sorry to say, but I believe Representative Lewis was a part of that group. No one has to tell me I already know my opinion is just that, but I do believe it's important that we all use our voices to fight for our God given country, and bring Jesus Christ back to our land. Fear will not save us, for God has told us in His Word we have a covenant with Him, and He expect us to keep it.

"Nothing Sharper Than A Bird's Eye"

    A friendly visitor is all I needed. A little bird goes a long ways. 7-29-2020 Perryton, TX


  This is the first bird that landed right above my lawn chair when I went out for a breath of fresh air this afternoon. There is no doubt that this bird came to welcome me. It always makes me feel good if even a little bird shows me friendliness. I do not want dogs, nor cats, so the birds are company to me. Sometimes I see some very beautiful, colorful birds, but they usually don't stay put long enough for me to take their picture. They probably don't feel comfortable in the company of the more common, and more numerous birds. At least that is the way I judge them. Just comparing them to myself.


No matter how welcome, or how nice people with more to boast about than I, I still prefer to be with my own tribe. That is not to say I do not appreciate well educated, and people with high positions. I can feel right in their circle for awhile, then I want to go home to my own circle to rest. I can make all the mistakes I want, and not be embarrassed. It's because we all are equally created, and we choose to be the laid-back type. The one thing I have always loved about myself is my gifted desire to be original with my dress. Although I have made many of my dress outfits by a pattern, I most likely have changed something about it. Sometimes I take two or three patterns to create my own outfit. But the finished dress style is not complete until I have found the right pair of shoes, and purse. I used to always ware a hat to church back in earlier days, and I still like to ware a hat from time to time. When I was in school as a young girl I made some of my clothes by my own pattern, on my mothers treadle sewing machine. In high school I took home make and learned to cut out material with a pattern. I have always been a thrifty shopper. That is my second favorite thing to do. I like to brag about my bargain, shopping finds. If it cost a lot of money I wouldn't have it, even if someone gave it to me. I do have to make one exception. I was with a friend one day doing some shopping. She never bought anything cheap, so I was just following her in the dress shop. I could not pass up this purse without pricing it. I fell in love with it, but when I looked at the tag it read $340.00. I didn't notice that my friend was watching me. We went all through the store. She picked up a few things and started back to the cashier in the front of the store. The purse was at the very front, so she walked over and picked it up. I thought she likes it too. When she paid the bill she handed me the purse and said, Happy Birthday. I almost lost it. That purse was a real python skin, and a large bag type. I still love that purse, but I don't like snakes. That happened about five years ago, and I only carry that bag when I really have some place special to go. It sits on the top shelf of my closet, and it still looks new. I left the price tag in it so I could prove it's worth. I have several other purses that I like almost as well that I paid less than twenty dollars for. I need lots of purses, and shoes to match my dress attire, but I never have much money tied up in clothing. It's just my natural gift from God.
