GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
 
 6 We are merely moving shadows,
      and all our busy rushing ends in nothing.
   We heap up wealth,
      not knowing who will spend it.
 7 And so, Lord, where do I put my hope?
      My only hope is in you.
- Psalm 39:6-7(New Living Translation).
 
 
 
GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
 
 1 The Lord is my shepherd;
      I have all that I need.
 2 He lets me rest in green meadows;
      he leads me beside peaceful streams.
    3 He renews my strength.
   He guides me along right paths,
      bringing honor to his name.
- Psalm 23:1-3(New Living Translation).

NOTES
 
The day started with cloudy skies but skies cleared by afternoon.  High temperature today was 72 degrees, low temperature last night was 43 degrees.  I had lunch with Charley.  I went to the post office and then to the cemetery.  The flowers that I placed out at the cemetery for Christmas are still very beautiful.  I took a nap this afternoon.  I would like to write a little about vultures.  They are the big black birds that eat carrion and people call them buzzards.  Almost every day I see one or two of those big birds gliding around high in the air and only occasionally flapping their wings.  Even though I live in town I usually see one or two of those big birds sailing around over town.  I never see them go to the ground in town but in the country I sometimes see them on the ground.  Just thought I would mention that so you can look for them sailing around when you are out and about.
 
The cats are fine.  They are all accounted for.
 
At 10:20 p.m. skies are fair with a temperature of 62 degrees.  I will see you next time.
 
In Christian Love, Everett.
