GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
4 “Show me, O Lord, my life’s end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting is my life. 5 You have made my days a mere handbreadth; the span of my years is as nothing before you. Each man’s life is but a breath." - Psalm 39:4-5(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
13 He (God) has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. - Colossians 1:13-14(New King James Version).

A QUOTE
Our life is full of brokenness-broken relationships, broken promises, broken expectations. How can we live with that brokenness without becoming bitter and resentful except by returning again and again to God's faithful presence in our lives? - Henri Noewen -

THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER

NOTES
Today was cloudy until around noon and then partly cloudy the rest of the day. High temperature today was 89 degrees and the low temperature was 73 degrees. Had lunch with Charley and Bill, then to the post office. At 1:00 p.m. Cordell's Pest Control did the annual spraying around the outside of my house for termites and bugs. My neighbor mowed my front and back lawns today. I did a little tree trimming out by a stop sign that was partially blocking the view of oncoming cars. It was just a few minutes, June, and it didn't hurt my back much. I sat outside with the cats for about an hour and read this evening. I sure do appreciate your e-mails. I will send 3 pictures tonight.
The cats are fine. At present Little Girl is outside and Rascal is in the recliner. Leo just got on the desk and meowed so I had to go show him that canned cat food was already out for him. I have seen all of the cats today including Lucy the stray. When I say I have seen all of the cats it now includes Tony who is now my cat. I told Tony's previous owner that if she ever got to a place where she could have cats then she could have Tony again.
I will see you next time.
In Christian Love, Everett.
