GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
6 He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them— he remains faithful forever. 7 He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets prisoners free, 8 the LORD gives sight to the blind, the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down, the LORD loves the righteous. - Psalm 146:6-8(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
14 For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance. - Psalm 94 :14(New International Version).

A QUOTE
When some great sorrow, like a mighty river, flows through your life with peace-destroying power . . . say to your heart each trying hour; "This, too, shall pass away". - Lanta Wilson Smith -

THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER
I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life: I was given life that I might enjoy all things . . . I got nothing that I asked for - but everything that I had hoped for. - Author Unknown -
It's easy to see both sides of an issue that you're not interested in. - From Reminisce Magazine -

NOTES
Today has been a sunny day with a high temperature of 70 degrees and a low temperature of 33 degrees. My housecleaning lady came at 11:15 a.m. and cleaned my house while I went to lunch. I had lunch with Charley and our friend, Bill. I went to the post office and then to the cemetery. I took a nap this afternoon and would you believe that Little Girl came and napped with me again? I sat outside with the cats around 5:00 p.m. There were many birds flying south again this evening like they were the other day. There are a few people that I haven't heard from about staying with Good Things but I am going to send them a personal e-mail and make sure they want to be dropped in the new year. I may not do Good Things tomorrow night as it is church night and after church I have to get my garbage ready and out on the street for pick up on Monday morning. So don't be concerned if you don't get Good Things tomorrow night.
The cats are fine. Little Girl is on the back of the sofa and Rascal has been here but has now gone elsewhere. I have seen Lucy a couple of times today. She came in the house once.
I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A HAPPY, WONDERFUL, PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!

I will see you next time,
In Christian Love, Everett.
