GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
14 He (Jesus) redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. - Galatians 3:14(New International Version).

NOTES
Today has been partly cloudy with a high temperature of 74 degrees and a low temperature of 48 degrees. I had lunch with Charley and Bill. I came by the post office and then home. Before my nap I sat out for a little while and called Rascal home from under a neighbors storage house one house over from mine. It is a large storage house and it must be nice and cool under it. The cats go down the alley to get to it. I took my nap with Emmy and Beau. At about 3:15 p.m. I made my weekly visit to Walmart to buy my weekly supply of dry cat food and grocery items. At 5:30 I went outside and sat with the cats and read for about an hour or more. A few years before my dear Flonnie went to Heaven I ordered a set of books from Guideposts. I have five books with 30 or more true stories in each book. The set of books is called "Comfort From Beyond". They tell about the tender ways God eases our grief after someone we love dies. I have been reading from these books the past few weeks as I sit outside. When I ordered the books I had no idea who would go first, Flonnie or me. Right after she passed away if you remember I had that bad back problem with pain for about a month. After I felt like reading again I have read from these books off and on for the past four years. I think I am about through with my second reading of them. I was sitting in the back yard reading two years ago when I saw Flonnie walking down the street and she waved to me. I have written you about that before. This evening some of my cats stayed out with me until I came inside.
The cats are fine. Little Girl and Rascal are in their usual place. I talk to my cats just like I do humans and ask them questions. They look at me like they understand.
I will see you next time,
With Christian Love to Everyone, Everett.
