Good morning every one.

[DollyCali]

good morning everyone! Quick note to friends here & there as I will be gone for a good part of day , checking in now & then. No frost last night thankfully as I didn't move my tropicals. I have a LOT of them outdoors & for early in season find that I can move them under the evergreens when frost comes through.

Molly & ohio.. I have a couple tropicals that you may want. they are angel trumpet plants that I started this spring. I take them in each winter & get one or two blooming cycles inside.

article link HERE

these pix are from last fall. they have one major bloom (the best) right before the frost normally. THey can get big but you can successfully trim back for inside control & very easy to start new ones. The part you cut off..stick it in pot & voila! - a new plant. the ones I have for you are about 15" tall.

A Great Mystery

Read:
Luke 16:19-31

We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. —2 Corinthians 5:8

Bible In One Year: Esther 1-3

Many people love mysteries. It's exciting to put ourselves in the shoes of a detective and try to figure out "whodunit" as we turn the pages of a mystery novel. But there's a cliffhanger that we'll never resolve—until we experience it ourselves.

Those of us who have watched in sadness as someone close to us has died may wonder about their new existence. Our hearts ache to know what they are doing or where they are. If they had trusted Jesus Christ as Savior, we know they are in heaven. But, for now, a veil separates us from our loved ones and we cannot see behind it.

We do have a few clues about this mystery, though. We know that our departed loved ones are enjoying God's presence (2 Corinthians 5:8). We also know that they are recognizable and conscious of their surroundings—just like the rich man and the beggar Jesus spoke of in Luke 16:22-23. And we know that they haven't yet received the perfect body that will be theirs when Christ returns (1 Thessalonians 4:13-17).

Beyond that, we are left with this truth: God, in His matchless love and power, is planning a glorious reunion. Then, our eternal rejoicing will begin. The last page of this great mystery has a happy ending. —Dave Branon

The Lord has promised to prepare
A place in heaven above—
A home where we will always be
With Him and those we love. —Sper

God's people never say goodbye for the last time.
