Good Things

by Everett Christian, McAlsester. OK GOOD THINGS Wednesday, May 18, 2011 GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD 9 Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds. 10 Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him. - Colossians 3:9-10(New Living Translation). GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD (Jesus said) 38 "Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.’” 39 (When he said “living water,” he was speaking of the Spirit, who would be given to everyone believing in him. But the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet entered into his glory.) - John 7:38-39(New Living Translation). A QUOTE The strength for our conquering and our victory is drawn continually from Christ. - Billy Graham - THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER Among mankind's most effective medicines is a sympathetic ear. - From Reminisce Magazine - To be a giving person, you don't need to give in, but there's much you must give up. - From Reminisce Magazine - NOTES Today has been mostly cloudy with a high temperature of 74 degrees. Low temperature last night was 57 degrees. I had lunch today at Taco Bob's with my brother Charley Christian and our friend, Bill Derichsweiler. There has been a violinist playing music the past three days at Bob's. He is from the younger generation for I asked him to play "San Antonio Rose" and he didn't know that tune. However he did play "Amazing Grace" and also "Faded Love" as well as many other beautiful tunes. I went to the post office to pick up my mail. My neighbor and his wife mowed and weed eated my yard this afternoon. I took a nap this afternoon without a cat with me. At 4:00 p.m. I went to Walmart for cat food and other items. At 5:00 p.m. I went to the back yard and sat with the cats and read until 6:10 p.m. The cat picture tonight is Itty Bitty. Tonight I would like to welcome Stephanie Brown to the Good Things. Welcome aboard, Stephanie, but maybe you should let me know that you receive this so I will know I have your e-mail address correct. My 8 cats and 1 stray are fine tonight. I have seen all of them. As usual, Little Girl is resting on the couch but she has been outside today and tonight for short periods of time. At 10:00 p.m. skies are fair with a temperature of 73 degrees. I will see you next time. In Christian Love, Everett.
