The weather:::

Very thankful for the milder , more seasonal temps! And we do need that coming rain... just hope it is not a deluge! 

On my breakfast plate:

I am meeting  a friend at IHOP!

As I look outside my window...

A stroll through the yard revealed some flourishing going on!

My new rose garden is taking root and looking very nice!

This older rose bush needs a bit of loving care!!!

I'll be happy when these stumps are gone! But the hydrangea is really making up for a lack-luster season last year!

On my bedside table..

 An organization of my bedside drawers has made a positive impact on my table top... I am feeling really good about some order there beside me! hehehe

Prayers 

Continuing prayers for our nation:

Pray protection over The President and his family. Scatter the network of evil schemes that thwart 

the Constitutional flow of government

Pray that many who serve in our government will experience a God encounter that will bring them to their knees in humility and repentance, that they would be saved and have a gigantic shift in their political stance.

For the God's will to work its way through our Congress to promote a healing and a functioning environment.

Pray against delusion and lies of the enemy, protect the hearts and minds of the young, bring them into the Great Shepherd's Fold that they might truly understand Truth and the right.

Pray that pastors across the nation are renewed and re edified to preach the gospel using the whole counsel of God.

Please, God, take back our institutions of higher learning

Pray for the sick that they might be healed

Pray for the peace and harmony of Jerusalem ...also pray God's favor over Bibi Netanyahu ..I have some friends flying there for a tour of the Holy land today.. keep them safe, Lord!

Pray for our service men and women overseas who put their life on the line everyday to protect our freedoms. 

Pray for the lost who are bewildered and lost... they are hopeless in need of a loving savior
