Good Things

GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD:

(Jesus said) 20 "You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.'" - Luke 18:20(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD:

1 My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you, 2 turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding, 3 and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, 4 and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, 5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. - Proverbs 2:1-5(New International Version).

NOTES:

Today has been mostly sunny with a high temperature of 88 degrees. I attended Memorial Services at 11:00 a.m. for Jim Rose, a good friend and former boss. He was 80 years of age. I saw some friends that I had worked with at H&R Block. Jim was my boss for 16 years. I have been retired from H&R Block for 16 years. I had lunch with Charley. I went to the post office and then to Walgreen's to pick up a prescription. I took my nap this afternoon with Smokey. I put treats out for the cats around 6:10 p.m. and sat with them for about 45 minutes. Thanks for your emails and thanks for reading the Good Things. Let me know if you would like to be dropped. They are going into 56 different homes at this time.

The cats are fine. Tony came to the back this evening as I was sitting out. He usually does not come to the back with the rest of the cats. I have seen all of my cats this evening. Why do I tell you that every night? Because some people who read the Good Things want to know if all of my cats are fine.

Have a nice Thursday. Everett
