PING~A~LING Y’ALL
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
Ling-A-Ping to you too, Early Bird. Hope youre having a good week!
Good evening Tweezers ((HUGS))
Thanks for the music.
Ah, gotcha! LOL
Well...I walked and fed the dog, made breakfast, cleaned the kitchen, Did my Bible Study, Posted the Jerusalem Thread, Practiced piano, began working on a Mozart Sonata, played scales on my guitar, walked the dog again, got the mail, worked on a painting of a Golden Retriever until I ran out of Yellow Ocher paint, called my sis to encourage her, Started a Philppa Gregory novel, FReeped some more, had lunch, walked over to my other sister’s house and had dinner, played cards and backgammon, watched JEOPARDY! (and won on the final), came home, got into my jammies and now I’m FReeping again.
Other than that, not much.
Oh...and came in FIRST on the Canteen Thread! LOL!
Typical Alpha Female. That’s me.
Which Mozart sonata?
Bible in a Year:
There is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord . . . will award to me on that day.
On the night of April 3, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King gave his final speech, Ive Been to the Mountaintop. In it, he hints that he believed he might not live long. He said, Weve got some difficult days ahead. But it doesnt matter with me now. Because Ive been to the mountaintop. And Ive looked over. And Ive seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. . . . [But] Im happy tonight. Im not worried about anything. Im not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord. The next day, he was assassinated.
The apostle Paul, shortly before his death, wrote to his protégé Timothy: I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near. . . . Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day (2 Timothy 4:6, 8). Paul knew his time on earth was drawing to a close, as did Dr. King. Both men realized lives of incredible significance, yet never lost sight of the true life ahead. Both men welcomed what came next.
Like them, may we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal (2 Corinthians 4:18).
What is your understanding of this lifes temporary nature? How do you think it plays into the life that comes next?
Heavenly Father, help us to keep our eyes on You and not on the troubles and trials of this life.

Well, you’ve certainly had a much busier day than many of us.
The highlight of my day was going to pick of a few groceries. LOL
I am working on 2 of them, K545(Easy Peazy) and Rondo Ala Turca.
The rondo is the finale of K. 331. The whole K. 331 sonata is wonderful.
Yeah...I have run out of fresh veggies and am craving a salad, so it’s time for me to go to the market as well.
Good evening Mayor ((HUGS))
Thanks for keeping us in the GOOD WORD.
