GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
 
3 "Oh, that we might know the Lord!
      Let us press on to know him.
   He will respond to us as surely as the arrival of dawn
      or the coming of rains in early spring.”
- Hosea 6:3(New Living Translation).
 
 
 
GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
 
13 Jesus replied, “Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. 14 But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.”  - John 4:13-14(New Living Translation).
 
 
 
A QUOTE
 
The most encouraging word - friend.
- John Van Diest -
 
 
 
A THOUGHT TO REMEMBER
 
The past is valuable as a guidepost, but not so if used as a hitching post.
- From Reminisce Magazine -
 
 
 
A PRAYER
 
Grant now your Holy Spirit to guide us to wholeness and the fulfillment of Your will in our lives. Amen.
- From Reflecting God -
 
 
 
NOTES
 
The day was sunny this morning but clouds came in this afternoon.  High temperatures today were in the low nineties.  I went to lunch with Charley and saw the McMullen's at Taco Bob's, (Stan, Sue, their daughter Pam and Pam's daughter. I am sorry but I have forgotten Pam's daughter's name). I went to the post office.  Later I went to Walgreens to pick up a prescrption.  The rest of the time I have been inside until 7:00 p.m. and then I went to the back yard.  It was cloudy and cool and even a few sprinkles fell but not enough to send me inside.  I came in a little after 8:30 p.m.  My friends, Curtis and Debra Schock and their family are going to Illinois on vacation the latter part of the week.  Debra wrote me an e-mail this evening.  I will not share her complete letter but there is one paragraph that I will share at the end of the Good Things.  I sent the Good Things to 50 people last night and asked you to reply to my e-mail.  I heard from 27 people so where are the other 23?  Let me hear from you if you are reading the Good Things. 
 
The cats are fine.  Little Girl in her favorite place.  Rascal hasn't been in lately so I will have to go check on him because he is usually around.
 
At 11:15 p.m. skies are fair with a temperature of 78 degrees.  I will see you next time.
 
In Christian Love, Everett
The paragraph from Debra's letter:
 
God's Blessings to You, Everett - may the sun shine on your face each day to show you God's goodness, the song of the birds add music to your ears, the beauty of the flowers bring a smile - to remind you of all that you knew your dear Flonnie enjoyed, your cats bring you fellowship and comfort, with the Love of your family and friends may you find contentment and much appreciation. God Is Good, All the Time and All the Time, God is Good!!
