” ... We don’t know when God will call us home, but we do know this: Each day is an opportunity to leave a testimony worthy of our faith.

Oh, may all who come behind us find us faithful;
May the fire of our devotion light their way;
May the footprints that we leave lead them to believe,
And the lives we live inspire them to obey. —Mohr
Each day we add to our legacy—good or bad.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is more than a opportunity, it is an assignment from God the Father and Jesus ... ‘go and tell your brethren’.

We seem to fail in this, mainly counting on those around us simply being infused by our presence. MO

Forgive us Father, we know not what we do. Help us we pray, in Jesus name, amen.

I am able to love others. Please spread the sweet

fragrance of Your love through me to everyone

I interact with today. Amen.”

A godly life is a fragrance that draws others to Christ.

Thanks for your Friday wearing red posts.
I am still in shock and have the overall dread and doom thing that won’t go away yet. I feel bad about that since I am to trust in The Lord completely. I will admit it is a difficult thing to take and move on with cheerfulness. We are only human, and God gave us emotions, so I hope He will forgive me for being crushed when I expected joy but got the opposite.

I had to look up when the next prez election will be. I did that yesterday. I will try to keep the countdown current in my tagline, for the next 1459 days!!! That’s a long time!

I will be as soon as I get dressed to go eat. (I’m off today and am being lazy. Unfortunately, the sweats I put on last night were green. LOL)

LOL.

You’re welcome, CP

Grief after a loss is normal..and I had had some optimism.
The first few hours I was in shock..up all night.
I decided to start cleaning messes up I had left..a bit at a time to cheer me up..I have mountains of paper work to tend to..I’ve just pulled out some need to do NOW stuff..cleaned my bath and done 4 loads of laundy...the last couple of days//3 more loads to go..
I have been puny and so I am far behind..and the election has consumed me lately..
The sun comes up as always...so I am trying to ignore the “autopsies” being performed here and on TV..and work on what I can change.
Anorher 4 years of switching channels if Zero comes on..It is somehow is easier to read about the latest outrage he’s inflicted than hear him.
I’d better get up and start another load of laundry or I’ll dive into gloom!
I cannot change what happened Tuesday but I just must work on changing my gloomy outlook.
God is still right here with us...leading us out of our dark valley to the still waters.

(((HUGS)))

What a wonderful thought to start my day... Truth is today is a late starter.

Hugs back.

I am doing the same. Cleaning etc. Even cleaned my gutters today.

About 3 weeks ago I took up piano playing again after 30 years. Got it tuned last week too.

I was missing hearing hymns between Sunday services. So I got some piano books of hymns and started to teach myself to play again.

I am sure there is devine intervention in this, since I am playing better than I ever did!

I went and got some “greatest songs ever” type books, and one is American themed with the Star Spangled Banner etc. I found the happy “Peanuts” theme music as a one song sheet music offering. That one is difficult but I will keep trying.

The music is theraputic, like the house cleaning, and the praying,lots of that, and immersion into the Scriptures and inspirational readings from Patsy Clairmont with all her wonderful Christian based humor.

I have my last new member class at church next week, and the pastor says we will be welcomed into the congregation officially in early December.

See there are good things happening...but my heart is sad for America.
