I have been doing a lot of praying and been so concerned over a beloved rascal kitty of my daughter’s this week..He was my best buddy when I was staying at my daughter’s home..

I read that Marissa has picked a new kitty and it gave me a lift..

Trubble has improved enough to come home and I am grateful to God..Of course seeing if his kidneys function or reblock has me concerned but I am so grateful he is home and getting lots of love. I dearly love that cat.

I am so thrilled Marissa will have a new kitty!

Remember Me
Remember me when You come into Your kingdom. —Luke 23:42

Matthew Henshaw got his name into the Guinness Book of World Records in an unusual way. After swallowing a 15.9-inch sword, Henshaw attached a 40-pound sack of potatoes to the handle of the sword and held it for 5 seconds. (This is not recommended.)

Henshaw and others like him have gone to extraordinary lengths to have their names memorialized in the world’s most famous record book. The longing for immortality compels people to do many things—some remarkable, and some bizarre.

The immortality Jesus offers has nothing to do with anything we do. In fact, after giving His disciples the authority to do truly remarkable things (Luke 10:17-19), Jesus said, “Do not rejoice . . . that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven” (v.20).

At Golgotha, an unnamed thief believed that message just in time (Luke 23:40-42). He understood that eternal life had nothing to do with what he had done—good or bad. It had to do with what Jesus was doing—giving His own life so that even the undeserving could be welcomed into heaven by God. The important thing is being remembered not by others, but by God.

Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood—
Sealed my pardon with His blood:
Hallelujah, what a Savior!  —Bliss

Our lives matter because God loves us.

Bible in One Year: Deuteronomy 19–21; Proverbs 28:15-28

Thank you for this post, Meg.

We will be praying for Trubble. A CD that the shelter gave us to review said male cats need to drink LOTS of water. Is there something they can give him to prevent the stones or whatever is causing the blockage.

“Kiity Mittens” was not ready yesterday so we should be able to get him today. We were going to take a drive to the foothills to view Spring in action and then have dinner at a small Inn. We are talking about putting it off until tomorrow so Marissa can get her cat. She is so anxious and was so disappointed yesterday.

Prayers will continue for Trubble.

Re: Trubble - I too will remember him in prayer. It is so hard when our beloved pets are sick and in distress. I truly hope he will be back to good health soon.
