Being a musician, I am accosted at times with random song lyrics.
This morning the temps are in the 60’s, and it really feels COLD OUTSIDE!
I guess Christmas is coming.
What a summer for me! All sorts of things sorted.
School starts in just three weeks, and I look forward to being a substitute teacher again. This summer I actually received a sweet note from one of the principals, a thank you note, for being a faithful substitute. It’s nice being appreciated.
Other things sorted were life decisions, relationships, memories, and goals.
Looking back at the past years I realized the power of grief and loss, how they affect us profoundly, coloring the whole world.
Each of us grieves in different ways, but for me it was a “shut down.”
I still functioned, for the most part, but it was barely. I was always processing.
That process continues. I’m pretty sure it will never stop, until we meet the Lord in the air.
Anyway, things march along here at Corgi Hollows.
Today our African daughter moves back to college. Next week I will attempt to organize books again. I want to have a book sale in the fall, during Corgi Hollows History Day, October 14.
I have literally thousands of books to sell. I home-schooled, so I am ready to part with many of my books.
It has been hard for me to be ruthless about purging things that I don’t need anymore.
My goal of 2023 was to simplify. I just couldn’t handle a lot of anything—–so SIMPLIFY!
That means paring down materially, too.
How much time do we actually have on this old earth? Not much. It is time to get ready for the Great Departure, the Snatching, a.k.a. The Rapture.
Because I raised a family of five children, all home-schooled, there was a great deal of Material involved; paper, books, supplies for all kinds of projects.
Most of this stuff is still useful despite the internet! It’s a challenge to pare it all down now, not just dispose of it, redeem its value, and pass it along to those who’d appreciate it.
The story of a life lived in our great country of vast wealth. We all have so much.
I’ve watched a bit of what is happening on Maui. I actually know people there. They’ve lost everything.
I am so grateful to God for His protection and care in my current situation. He has been good to me. He has provided for my needs, helped me to take care of pressures and demands.
He is my helper and my guide.
I look forward to a face-to-face with my Lord soon.
There is something about 2023 that is causing a swirl in the unseen world. What do they know, what are they hinting at?
It’s a significant time.
WE are in the season of change.
Are you ready?
I’m going to put on a sweater.
MARANATHA!
