Hi there!

I just read that your Governor will lift the mask mandate on March 10th. Our derp gov seems to believe we in WI will comply forever.

I went to a Walmart maskless today, a store that I’d never been to, but my brother said that the town and that store were cool about mask freedom.

There were only 2 other thinking Americans there without masks.
Employees were nice, no one said a word about masks. Thus, I will be going to that store from now on, rather than the Walmart I went to since it was built.

Freedom 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Aw! Was a bit windy here, even though it was sunny, I skipped seeing the horse until Thursday. Too cold. Still, windy and 40 is pretty good compared to zero. 😊

low teens here and wind gusts up to 80mph.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Not getting on that Harley tonight!

[luvie]

Yes! Freedom means freedom of choice, too! You did good!

[TheConservativeParty]

I hide in a basement for 80 mph wind. 🥺
Haven’t had to do that for quite a few years, tornado warning situations.

16 years in Florida, including the HORRIBLE Hurricane Seasons of 2004-2005, have inured me somewhat to 80mph winds.

That’s only ONE little flag.

Preserved

Bible in a Year:

• Numbers 28–30
• Mark 8:22–38

The Lord himself goes before you.

Deuteronomy 31:8

While I was clearing out the garden in preparation for spring planting, I pulled up a large clump of winter weeds . . . and leapt into the air! A venomous copperhead snake lay hidden in the undergrowth just below my hand—an inch lower and I would have grabbed it by mistake. I saw its colorful markings as soon as I lifted the clump; the rest of it was coiled in the weeds between my feet.

When my feet hit the ground a few feet away, I thanked God I hadn’t been bitten. And I wondered how many other times He had kept me from dangers I never knew were there.

God watches over His people. Moses told the Israelites as they prepared to enter the promised land, “The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged” (Deuteronomy 31:8). They couldn’t see God, but He was with them nonetheless.

Sometimes difficult things happen that we may not understand, but we can also reflect on the number of times God has preserved us without our ever being aware!

Scripture reminds us that His perfect, providential care remains over His people every day. He’s always with us (Matthew 28:20).

Reflect & Pray

How does the biblical truth that God watches over His people comfort you? Who can you tell about His faithfulness today?

Faithful Father, thank You for watching over me every day. Please give me grace to walk closely with You in everything I do today.
