GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride. 9 Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools. - Ecclesiastes 7:8-9(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
10 Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. - Romans 13:10(New King James Version).

A QUOTE
Our Lord does not care so much for the importance of our works as for the love with which they are done. - Teresa of Avila -

THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER
The "Spirit of holiness" is the Spirit of Jesus: a spirit of humble service and sacrificial love. - From Reflecting God -
Those who would be young when they are old, must act old when they are young. - From Proverbs for Daily Living -

NOTES
We had thunderstorms last night but today has been partly cloudy. High temperature today was 88 degrees and low temperature was 63 degrees. June, Charley and I had lunch together today. June and I went by the post office and then by Braum's Ice Cream and Dairy Store. We sat outside for a few minutes before I took my nap. Little Girl took a nap with me today. While I napped, June went to Country Mart Store for some items. We watched the Billy Graham Classic Crusade at 6:00 p.m. Today's program was from Charlotte, North Carolina in 1958 so it was in black and white. Billy Graham was 39 years of age at that time. We sat out side with the cats after 7:00 p.m. We are supposed to have more thunderstorms later in the night. I appreciate your e-mails even though I haven't answered them except through the Good Things. You can rest assured that I read your e-mails as soon as I get on the computer. My back has been hurting some the past few days so I made an appointment for another injection in my back on next Wednesday, May 6.
The cats are fine. Rascal is lying on the desk by my computer where I can pet him occasionally. Little Girl is outside at present. I have seen all of the cats this evening. The family across the street are moving out so I have inherited Tony until further notice. You can rest assured that June and I will take care of him. He still spends a lot of time across the street at the empty house but he also spends a lot of time at our house.
I will see you next time.
In Christian Love, Everett.
