♥♥How I am feeling this morning♥♥ 

I  am always excited to get to go to prayer meeting

... and I was hopeful  for  a new person to show up

,,, but we still had our faithful 5.

 ♥♥On the breakfast plate♥♥

Coffee and fruited yogurt  and he boiled  me two eggs

 to  see me off to prayer meeting!

♥♥On my reading pile♥♥ 

Bible- reading  Doing more research in preparation 

for prayer.   One of my spiritual teachers and mentors, 

Marlene Ferreira,  has written  a wonderful book, The 

Great  I am and I .  My journey into and from the Heart

 of God in the Midst of Apartheid/ Segragtion in South

 Africa. I remember so well her retelling her story of 

 pastoring a Dutch Reformed Church in South Africa ..

 very  thrilling  story  as she was fulfilling GOd's pur-

poses there.  Her book is a real page turner!

  Lynn and I went through the seasonal  tubs in the storage 

room in the basement. I purged  a ton of stuff either to the

 trash or the donate box. Then we organized the tubs on the

 shelves.  I pray I can  keep it like this now. It looks so much 

better and we actually  now have  about 3 empty tubs for other

 purposes!    

 ♥♥Looking around the house♥♥

All of my house energy was spent on the basement and  purging

stuff we just do not use anymore. We have seeeral boxes and bags

 of items to take to donate today!

♥♥What am I listening to♥♥

The local news and weather on the radio!

♥♥Something I want to share♥♥ 

Gardening  with Creekside    ..  a wonderful   youtube 

channel about everything  you need to know about 

 gardening.

Her latest offering...
Now  this young lady owns Creekside Nursery so

 she has access to the machinery and  the mulch, 

etc..    but  man, what a garden!

♥♥Devotional, inspirational, prayer list or Bible verse♥♥

I have been going to Intercessors for America now 

for  about 10 years... feeling all the time that America needed

  so much prayer and we  prayed so, for  deliver-

ance for our  nation,  for its culture,   for the decline in so 

many areas,  now  against racism,  criticalrace theory in

 our schools, abortion, just everything. We worship and pray

 every week, but lately the Spirit is leading us  to be more quiet. 

To listen to the small, voice of God.  Oh, how we have been praying

 for discernment to hear correctly, and pray in His will.We are all 

convinced that God has this, even though,

it doesn look  right in our  natural eyes,but He is  mightily at work

 bringing  everything into alignment.  Now here is  the thing.   

It is very likely that what He is bringing into existence will not be 

exactly what we had been praying for the last 10 years.

But  it is  what he is  doing in this time  on His calendar. So 

we are praying for us, His children,  to  eat more of His Word,  

understand His ways more, even though they a re much higher

 than our ways  and prepareour hearts for what  He is  doing..

Soak in the first chapter of James.Build  ourselves up in His  

truth and  be strong in His Word! Pray for the church... to wake 

up and truly desire  more of God. The days of playing 

church are behind us... We are entering into a  spiritual battle

 and a shaking....Christians and those who call themselves 

Christians, but are not  lit by the  Spirit of God  will be  set apart.. 

This could be a final wake up call for those whoare not fully awake...
