Good morning, LTOS.
Going to be another nice warm day here ... in the 70's again.
I'm loving it but we need some rain and some colder weather.
Wishing you a delightful Friday.

To Whom It Is Due
November 16, 2013
My husband and I live in a rural area surrounded by farms where this slogan is popular: If you ate a meal today, thank a farmer. Farmers definitely deserve our gratitude. They do the hot, hard work of tilling soil, planting seeds, and harvesting the food that keeps us from starving to death.
But every time I thank a farmer, I also try to remember to offer praise to God, for He is the One responsible for producing the food we eat. He gives light, sends rain, and creates the energy within the seed that gives it the strength to push through the soil and produce fruit.
Although the earth and everything in it belong to God (Ps. 24:1), He has chosen humans to be its caretakers. We are responsible to use the earths resources as He would use themto do His work in the world (115:16). And just as we are stewards of Gods physical creation, we also are stewards of His design for society. We do this by respecting those He has placed in authority, by paying taxes, by giving honor to those who have earned it, and by continuing to pay our debt of love (Rom. 13:7-8). But one thing we reserve for God: All praise and glory belong to Him, for He is the One who makes everything possible (Ps. 96:8).
Sing praise to God who reigns above,
The God of all creation,
The God of power, the God of love,
The God of our salvation. Schütz
Gods unsearchable ways deserve our unbounded praise.

Kittens are born with their eyes shut. They open them in about six days, take a look around,
then close them again for the better part of their lives.

I had been told that the training procedure with cats was difficult.
It's not. Mine had me trained in two days.
~Bill Dana
No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat,
and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch.
~Leo Dworken
It doesn't do to be sentimental about cats;
the best ones don't respect you for it.

Dear FRiends
My brother went home to God Thursday..I attended his funeral in my hometown church yesterday. It was comforting to know he is now free from pain and is resting with the Lord.
I am exhausted and may be off the computer much of today.
May Your Sunday Be Blessed

Hero Over Sin
November 17, 2013
Not long ago, someone asked me a very tough question: What is the longest you have gone without sinning? A week, a day, an hour? How can we answer a question like that? If were truthful, we might say, I cant live a day without sinning. Or if we look back over the past week, we might see that we havent confessed to God even one sin. But we would be fooling ourselves if we said we hadnt sinned in our thoughts or actions for a week.
God knows our hearts and whether were sensitive to the convicting power of the Holy Spirit. If we really know ourselves, we take 1 John 1:8 to heart, If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. We certainly dont want verse 10 to be true of us, If we say that we have not sinned, . . . His word is not in us.
A more encouraging question to ask might be: What is Gods response to our admission of sin and need for forgiveness? The answer: If we confess . . . , He is faithful and just to forgive us (v.9). Jesus has taken our sin problem upon Himself by dying in our place and rising again. Thats why He can create in us a clean heart (Ps. 51:10). My young friend Jaydon is right when he says, Jesus is the hero over our sins.
No one can say he doesnt need
Forgiveness for his sin,
For all must come to Christ by faith
To have new life within. Branon
Christs forgiveness is the door to a new beginning.

Thinking of you with love and sympathy. If he was suffering a lot, he is now at peace in the loving arms of our Saviour. God be with you and your family during this sad time.
Please get some rest today and don’t worry about the computer...it will be here when its convenient for you. Much love and sympathy to you!
