I am still figuring out this blogging apparatus, and uploading photos seems to be iffy. I’ve been able to find the magic road to uploads at times, other times I navigate to nothing. I need my webmaster, Ed, to tutor me.
If I could share a photo I took this morning, I would. The sky is deep sky blue. I always think September has the bluest skies. Perhaps it is just the contrast to the yellowing tree color. All the trees are tipped with gold now.
I said good bye to my cousin yesterday for the fourth time this summer season, and as I dropped her and her husband (this time he came too :)) at the airport a gloom filled my heart.
I am always cheered by her. She’s medicine for my spirit. She lives in Arizona, so it will be a little while now before I get to see her again. I’ll need some vitamin D and sunshine around February, so perhaps I’ll trek down to the sunshiny south for a dose of her good tonic then.
I am now planning a trip out to Pennsylvania with my friends, a possible mission opportunity for me. They are already involved. More later…
School is in full force. I even have had calls to sub this week…
Surprise! The East Asian NGO class is really a highlight of my week! Who would have thought ???
The Budget and Finance class is dry with algorithms and figures. Ugh. One must take the bitter with the sweet sometimes.
I’m finding it challenging to turn out my papers and discussion contributions each week. The reading is formidable.
With a trip and two weddings this semester, plus ongoing life changes and grief I will have my cup of challenge to swallow.
Thanks for saying a prayer for me if my name or face comes to mind. I always do that. The Lord brings to mind those I need to pray for.
Prayer is really on my mind. My new church is starting a series about praying for the lost, exactly what the Lord has been laying on my mind. I have my “snatch from the fire” list. I cry out to God for these souls every day.
You might be on it.
Truly, if you are reading this, you are probably already fire -safe.
I hope so. IF not, you must seek the Lord, and put your trust in Him. Today. Don’t wait.
Even if the Covid vaccine isn’t the mark of the beast, it heralds a beast system, with an identification plan to finger some and exclude others. Human rights are at stake. The facial recognition thing, identifying those who are vaccinated and allowing special privilege to them is disturbing. The proverbial “hour” is late. We see prophesied events churning out in the historical timeline. Time is short. Jesus is coming. Get ready!
Come quickly, Lord Jesus, eternal monarch! King of the millennium! Even so….
Pray for people. The Holy Spirit initiates the spiritual awakening. We must pray! We must trust Him to do His work in the lives of those we are concerned about.
Pray that they believe and put their trust (and hope) in Him. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
This is a message that isn’t known as well as it should be. The harvest is ripe!
Praise God.
Maranatha.
