Aloha, Hawaii...((HUGS))...another sunny day, but some rain is supposed to be coming. It will be most welcome, as the street sweepers are hard at work sweeping 6 months of dirt and gravel off the streets....DUST EVERYWHERE!
Has your sun made a full day appearance lately?
Last night and this the Canteen sure has been slow.
*hugs*
You Are Thoughtful
More than anything else, you want to live a life of reflection and meaning.
You spend a lot of time thinking, mostly about yourself. You have a strong inward focus.
You are naturally verbally expressive. You are a more of a good writer than a good talker.
You are a seeker and a lifelong student. You aren’t sure where your quest for knowledge will take you, but you’re ready for anything.
I had hoped I might win a teak picnic table.
The redwood table finally faded into the great compost heap in the sky.
“You spend a lot of time thinking, mostly about yourself.”
So, that makes me a racist, I suppose?
It sure has, Sandy. I was wondering if there was a major
sports series on or something.
How are you doin’? (((hugs))) Still liking the job?
Doing good and liking the job. ((hugs))

Good deal! It makes all the difference, huh!
That’s for sure.
Yup! Woohoo!
Evening Kathy, Hugs.
Thumping at work.
Now a tornado warning headed towards both houses.
Howdy, Taz! (((hugs)))
Tornado?? Not a good thing. Stay safe and hope your area is spared!
I hate to post and run, but I need to get rest. Don’t work TOO hard!
Thanks Luvvy, Hugs.
Night and rest well.
A young man facing the future and unsure of what the next year would bring, concluded, Nobody knows what Gods will is. Is he right? Does a lack of certainty about the future translate into not knowing Gods will?
The concept of knowing Gods will is often limited to discerning what specific situation we will be in at some future time. Although seeking Gods specific leading is part of it, another aspect that is just as vital is to follow the clearly defined elements of Gods will each and every day.
For instance, it is Gods will for us to be good citizens as a challenge to those opposed to Christ (1 Peter 2:15), to give God thanks no matter what (1 Thess. 5:18), to be sanctified sexually, avoiding immorality (1 Thess. 4:3), to live under the Holy Spirits control (Eph. 5:18), to sing to Him (v.19), and to submit to other believers (v.21).
As we submit to God in these and other areas, we are more likely to live in what Romans 12:2 calls Gods good and acceptable and perfect will. Living with Gods smile of approval leads to His guidance for the future.
As we seek to know Gods will for the future, we must also act on what we already know now.
Read: Ephesians 5:17-21
Canteeners Rock!!
Good morning, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.
Good morning, Taz...((HUGS))...I sure hear you about thumping at work. We are one short this week, and the boss is working on the new system, and overloaded. So today was even more thumping than yesterday. Lots of homework tonight...just finished!!
Prayers that the tornado passes by both houses.
