To: JustAmy
Hi, Amy - please stay safe out there, Sorry I have been so scarce lately - we're facing frequent urgent and changing deadlines at work - I never know when I receive a task whether I'll still be working on it at the end of the day. We have depositions coming up next week and the client is in full panic mode. But I can't complain - it's paying the bills and keeping the wolf from the door. I hope to be here more in the near future.
Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

We missed you, but I DO understand. Sometimes life gets in the way.
We seldom get a tornado but when we do, it is not on the ground very long. We have had some strange storms this spring.
Thanks for coming by when you find time.

Awake With His Word
April 12, 2012
My eyes fluttered open, but the room was still dark. It was too early to get up. I sighed, adjusted my pillow, and hoped for sleep. Unfortunately, a lengthy to-do list bombarded my brain. I needed to buy groceries, deliver a meal to a friend, answer e-mail, schedule a doctors appointment . . . .
If youve ever been overwhelmed and worried, you know how it feels to stare at the ceiling when you should be sleeping. The writer of Psalm 119 was no stranger to this experience. He wrote, I rise before the dawning of the morning, and cry for help; I hope in Your Word (v.147).
Gods Word delivered special comfort during the psalmists sleepless nights. Although he couldnt make his problems disappear, he said, My eyes are awake through the night watches, that I may meditate on Your Word (v.148). At night he reviewed Gods Word over and over in his mind. He concentrated on Scripture rather than his concerns. This practice allowed him to proclaim, Oh, how I love Your law! (v.97).
When worry wakes you up, remember, The Word of God is living and powerful (Heb. 4:12). Select a passage and mull it over. Our cares cannot compete with Gods Word!
If your soul is parched and thirsty
And you feel weighed down by care,
Go to Gods Word for refreshment
Youll find strength and comfort there. Sper
Only God can still our hearts and quiet our minds.
Read: Psalm 119:145-152

Still raining in California's San Joaquin Valley.
So far, no thunderclouds in sight.
It is suppose to rain thru tomorrow.
There has not been a hail damage estimate yet but we had enough hail to damage several crops

he isn't likely to be thankful for what he's going to get.

Prayers for the valley farmers.
It's cold, windy but the rain has stopped for now and trying very hard to allow Mr. Sun to appear (don't think it's going to happen). So far we haven't had any hail or thunder but we all know how quickly that can change!
In spite of the weather, I hope your Thursday is going well!

HAPPY THURSDAY TO AMYS PLACE!
I Am Of Ireland
I am of Ireland, And the Holy Land of Ireland, And time runs on, cried she. Come out of charity, Come dance with me in Ireland.
One man, one man alone In that outlandish gear, One solitary man Of all that rambled there Had turned his stately head. That is a long way off, And time runs on, he said, And the night grows rough.
I am of Ireland, And the Holy Land of Ireland, And time runs on, cried she. Come out of charity And dance with me in Ireland.
The fiddlers are all thumbs, Or the fiddle-string accursed, The drums and the kettledrums And the trumpets all are burst, And the trombone, cried he, The trumpet and trombone, And cocked a malicious eye, But time runs on, runs on.
I am of Ireland, And the Holy Land of Ireland, And time runs on, cried she. Come out of charity And dance with me in Ireland.
William Butler Yeats |
