GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
13 Keep your tongue from evil, And your lips from speaking deceit. 14 Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it. - Psalm 34:13-14(New King James Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
(Jesus said) 38 "And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. 39 He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it." - Matthew 10:38-39(New King James Version).

A QUOTE
In comparison with this big world, the human heart is only a small thing. Though the world is so large, it is utterly unable to satisfy this tiny heart. Our ever-growing soul and its capacities can be satisfied only in the infinite God. - Sadhu Sundar Singh -

A THOUGHT TO REMEMBER
I had walked life's path with an easy tread, had followed where comfort and pleasure led; and then one day in a quiet place I met the Master face-to-face. - From It's A Beautiful Life -

NOTES
Today has been a sunny day with a high temperature of 70 degrees and a low temperature of 45 degrees. I had lunch with Charley and Bill. I went to the post office and then came home. I sat outside in the back yard for a few minutes before I took my nap. I lay down for my nap around 1:30 p.m. Beau and Smokey napped with me today. My neighbor mowed my front lawn this afternoon. I watched "Trains and Locomotives" at 5:00 p.m. I went outside to the back yard and sat with the cats at 6:00 p.m. I read and watched cats and birds for about an hour. A Mocking Bird was diving at Friendly and touching his back. That Mocking Bird had better be careful. He might find a cat with quick reflexes but seldom does a cat catch a Mocking Bird. I have had several e-mails the past few days which I certainly appreciate. I had several comments on Ella's picture. As you noticed I sent the picture side ways but that is the way I received it. I clicked on "view image" and when the picture came up I rotated it to the proper position. I appreciate the comments on Ella's picture. I also appreciate everyone who takes the time to read the Good Things. I talked with my daughter June last evening before I went to bed and things were fine with she and Keith. I called my daughter Treva this morning at 8:30 a.m. and left a message. She is on the job at that time and sometimes doesn't have time to answer or is in a meeting. She works at a hospital.
The cats are fine. Little Girl and Rascal are in the den with me. Leo was here a little while ago. I have seen them all this evening.
I will see you next time,
With Christian Love, Everett.
