Recently our Church replaced the hymnals in the sanctuary. I was quick to get one of the older ones before they were all shipped off to another church. The words to the hymns are soothing to the soul. Read or sing the words and ones spirit is uplifted. Most all the congregational readings are not in the new hymnals. A loss. MO.

" __________________________________________________________ Isaiah 55
“1.Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

2.Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

3.Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

4.Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

5.Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

6.Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

7.Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

8.For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

9.For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

10.For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

11.So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

12.For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

13.Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”

Hi Polly, Glad you liked the photo! Hope you all had a wonderful Easter. What’s up with a that rocking and rolling? Was it scary or are you used to them? Can’t believe it was felt in Phoenix!
Hope you have a good week, as well!

Thank you for your wonderful Easter posts.
Every one of them was truly beautiful.
I enjoyed seeing the celebration of renewal here. Our Lord has risen!

I had hoped to get here yesterday but I really needed to take a rest after a big Easter dinner.
I cooked both ham and turkey with all the trimmings.
Ane I ate too much.
Had more than my share of chocolate. :)

Hope everyone is recuperating and enjoying a lovely spring Monday.

THX THX.

The rush was waking up too close to the apt time.

First adjustment session for the upper dentures after the surgery Friday morning.

The plastic palate is difficult for me to get used to.

And, there’s some sharper points that needed to be ground off.

Mostly we’re waiting until a week from today after the swelling etc. has healed more.

All in all, still better by far than the bottom experience. Wheeee.

YOUR PRAYERS AND CARING HAVE BEEN A BIG HELP.

I think the prayer support for the uppers was somehow much greater and had a huge impact. There were dangers there with broken teeth and long roots near the sinus cavaties that were of concern. Thanks to all your caring prayers, there were no problems. PRAISE GOD AND THANK YOU!

I have some left-over PEEPS from yesterday.
This morning, as I walked by the Easter basket,
I heard this little squeak!

I looked down into the basket,
And the PEEPS were all jumping up and down!

So, I put my ear close to them, and guess what they were saying?

"TELL QUIX
WE HOPE HE'S FEELING BETTER,
REAL SOON!!!"

Am pondering choosing a book for each of you . . . we have a used book table at church or maybe even some new ones. What nonfiction topics are of interest?

Happy Easter Monday, Tiapam.
I was on my feet for far too many hours yesterday but everyone enjoyed dinner.
I think it was too much after the prior weekend in Nevada.
I really felt old!

Marissa goes back to school tomorrow.
She will be happy ..... And so will I! :^ )

Have a delightful day.

I’m going to heat left-overs for lunch.

I need to feed Marissa before she eats any more Easter candy.

I will be back .....

A Happy Monday Wish to you.
