Good morning beachy. (((HUGS))) to you.

I only see about half the pictures today. Our servers are acting up again.

I, Me, Mine
Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit. —Philippians 2:3

In 1970, the Beatles began work on a documentary intended to show how their music was made. But instead of revealing the process of musical creativity, the film pulled the curtain back on a display of self-interest and bickering. The band members were more concerned about their own songs than the advancement of the group. Shortly after the project was completed, the group dissolved in disharmony and broken friendships.

It’s an age-old problem. In the first century ad, the apostle Paul feared that the believers in the church at Philippi would fall into the trap of selfishness. He knew that when the desire for personal advancement overrides concern for one another, attitudes quickly become disruptive and divisive.

To counteract this dangerous tendency, Paul wrote, “Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others” (Phil. 2:3-4).

What would a documentary of your life reveal? Selfishness or selflessness? We must look out for one another, for selfless concern will prevent division and build unity in our church families.  — Bill Crowder

Lord, let me live from day to day In such a self-forgetful way
That even when I kneel to pray My prayer will be for others. —Meigs

A heart that is focused on others will not be consumed with self.

Egad! It seems that you know more about their weather than
I do! I didn’t realize there had been more tornadoes up there!
Guess I had better check. The good news is that I didn’t
get a call from my DIL with any bad news...so far...

Good morning, dear ((HUGS))

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

Work dragged me away from the computer as soon as others arrived at the office.

Have a great day and weekend.

((LOL))Well, enjoy your weekend. At least you got the stuff done for this week.

Severe weather has for now wrapped up. There was some severe weather around Dallas-Ft. Worth but that was about it.

Forecast to hit around 90 in the next few days.

HiYa Ma ((HUGS))

I know you are busy

And I’m heading back to work now that I’ve finished lunch.

Wanted to wish you a terrific weekend and add a p.s......

...that dog with goggles is too funny. If we could only read their minds, what a earful we’d probably get. LOL

This has been a week to forget and hope it doesn't happen again for a long time.
We are 1 short and anything that could go wrong, did. I am so glad we made it to Friday.
We made all our deadlines, but no one had time for breaks or lunch.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend as well.
