GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
8 Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9 Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are. -1 Peter 5:8-9(New Living Translation).
GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
8 Physical training is good, but training for godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come. 9 This is a trustworthy saying, and everyone should accept it. - 1 Timothy 4:8-9(New Living Translation).
A PRAYER FOR VIGILANCE
Lord, keep me alert, so that I may avoid anything that would displease You. Protect me from satan's attempts to make me falter. For "greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world" (1 John 4:4). Amen.
- From Light For My Path for Grandparents -
A QUOTE
The devil is not terribly frightened of our human efforts and credentials. But he knows his kingdom will be damaged when we begin to lift up our hearts to God. - Jim Cymbala -
THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER
Those who think they know it all really annoy those of us who do.
- From Reminisce Magazine -
There's no limit to the good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit.

NOTES
Today has been a sunny day with high temperatures in the mid eighties. I had lunch with Charley, Pastor J. T. and wife, Dianne. After lunch, Charley and I rode out to the little cemetary at Bohannon with Doug Christian, and his mother, Nell. We attended Graveside Services for our great niece, Ann Mills. She was 72 years of age. Doug Christian (our great nephew) spoke at the Service. He is a cousin to Ann. I was tired when I got home so I took my nap. Before my nap was over, Rascal and Leo were in bed with me. I sat out with the cats this evening and read until dark. The picture tonight is our three children, from left to right, Treva, June and Ron. The picture was made by Lake Shawnee in Topeka, Kansas in November, 2004.
The cats are fine. Little Girl on the couch. Rascal just came in and is resting on the desk by my computer where I can pet him. He loves to be petted.
At 10:00 p.m. skies are fair with a temperature of 60 degrees. I will see you next time.
In Christian Love, Everett.
