Good Things

GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD:

23 "Am I only a God nearby" declares the Lord, "and not a God far away? 24 Can anyone hide in secret places so that I cannot see him?" declares the Lord "Do not I fill heaven and earth?" declares the Lord. - Jeremiah 23:23-24(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD:

3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. - Proverbs 16:3(New International Version).

NOTES:

Today has been partly cloudy with a high temperature of 91 degrees. I had lunch with Charley. Taylor was our waitress today. I saw Bill. He arrived earlier and ate with his wife today. I went by Country Mart for a couple of items, then I stopped at a place to get air put in my tire, then on to City Hall to pay my water bill and finally to the post office. I had a nap this afternoon. Smokey and Tony slept on the bed with me during the entire time of my nap. Smokey got up with me but Tony stayed in bed quite a while longer. I put food out for the cats around 6:05 p.m. and sat with them for a while. I missed doing the Good Things last night and I heard from a few people telling me they were missed. Thanks for your emails and thanks for reading the Good Things.

I heard this afternoon about the passing of another good friend, Jo Cox. She lost her husband, Paul, some time ago. Jo was living in Tulsa near her daughter. She and Paul were former good active members of our church.

The cats are fine. Smokey has been with me but he just left. He has been staying close to me a lot lately. Rascal and Tony have also been here since I started the Good Things. Emmy and Leo are in front lying on the hood of the van. Leo jumped onto the van again tonight from the top of the house. I have seen every one of my cats this evening. Lucy was also here a short time ago.

Have a nice Tuesday. Everett
