GOD SPEAKS TO US THROUGH HIS HOLY WORD
16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. - Hebrews 4:16(New International Version).

GOD'S PROMISE TO US FROM HIS HOLY WORD
(Jesus said) 5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." - Matthew 6:5-6(New International Version).

NOTES
I had lunch with Charley and came by the post office. I took my nap this afternoon with Smokey. I put out fresh water and food for the outside animals about 6:20 p.m. and sat out for about 20 minutes. Not much news tonight. The picture tonight is a close up of Little Girl in the Catalpa tree. The cats are fine. Little Girl is on the tv tray tonight. Rascal has been in tonight as well as Tony, the neighbor cat from across the street. Today has been mostly cloudy with a high temperature of 96 degrees. Low temperature this morning was 80 degrees. At 9:30 p.m. skies are mostly clear with a temperature of 88 degrees. I will see you next time.
In Christian Love, Everett.
