Good Things

by Everett Christian, McAlester, OK

GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
19 Better to be lowly in spirit along with the oppressed than to share plunder with the proud. - Proverbs 16:19(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time. - 1 Timothy 2:5-6(New International Version).

A QUOTE
Letters are expectation packaged in an envelope. - Shana Alexander -

THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER
A good word is as soon said as a bad one. - From Proverbs For Daily Living -
Some people find life an empty dream because they put nothing into it. - From Don't Wait for Your Ship to Come In. . . Swim Out to Meet It! -

NOTES
Well, I'm Back in The Saddle Again as Gene Autry used to sing. I really had a rough night after I did the Good Things Christmas night. I didn't get much sleep that night and couldn't eat anything Wednesday except that afternoon I managed to eat a small can of tomato soup. I drank a lot of Gatorade so I would not dehydrate. Thursday morning I was able to resume my regular eating but I did not make it to Taco Bob's for lunch. Last night I was much better but just didn't feel up to doing the Good Things. Today I went to Taco Bob's for lunch with Charley and Bill. My brother, Charley, had the same thing I had. We must have caught it from Charley's daughter-in-law and grandson who were both in bed sick when I was over there for Christmas Dinner on Monday. Anyway I seem to be in good shape now until I have another bout of sickness sometime. I do have to take three pain pills every day for my back but that is a chronic thing. I really want to thank everyone who sent me an e-mail. I received too many to list but I do appreciate every one of them. I came by the post office after lunch today and then took my nap with Tony. It has been cold the past three days so I have been staying inside most of the time. The cats also stay in a lot but have to go out occasionally to check things out. I put their treats outside today at 4:30 p.m. but didn't linger with them.
The cats are fine and as I mentioned they have been staying in a lot. Lucy the stray comes in to eat but she just won't stay inside very long. Rascal is now asleep in the recliner. I have seen all of the cats today.
Have a pleasant Saturday!
I will see you next time, In Christian Love, Everett.
