Hi Kathy! *Hugs*!

I hope you’re having a good Sunday afternoon.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hope your fire issues are improving, as well as for Chena Hot Springs Road folks.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, laplata. *hugs*

Just shortly back from taking the suburban on its weekly outing to run errands. Got everything done on my list, everything. d:o)

Hope you’ve had a good weekend. Any Independence Day special activities?

[Jet Jaguar]

No issues for us yet. But, they are starting evacuations on the Chena Hot Springs rd.

[laplata]

A slow, quiet weekend, thanks. Are you having fires near Anchorage?

CHARLESTOWN, Mass. (Jan. 14, 2008) The first major snowfall of the New Year blankets the USS Constitution. Despite the weather "Old Ironsides," remained open for free public tours. At 210 years-old, USS Constitution is the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world, manned by 67 active-duty United States Sailors and visited by nearly half a million visitors annually.

Jesus Loves Me
July 8, 2013

On cold days, our old dog moves around the yard, finding a sunny spot to stretch out on the grass to keep herself in the warmth of the sun.

This reminds me that we must “keep” ourselves in the love of God (Jude 1:21). That doesn’t mean we have to act in some special way to make God love us (although our desire is to please Him). Because we are His children we’re loved no matter what we do or fail to do. It means instead that we should think about His love and bask in its radiance and warmth all day long.

“[Nothing] shall be able to separate us from the love of God” (Rom. 8:39). He loved us before we were born, and He loves us now. This is our identity in Christ; it is who we are—God’s beloved children. That’s something to think about throughout the day.

Five times in John’s gospel he described himself as the disciple Jesus loved (13:23; 19:26; 20:2; 21:7,20). Jesus loved His other disciples too, but John reveled in the fact that Jesus loved him! We can adopt John’s theme—“I am the disciple Jesus loves!”—and repeat it to ourselves all day long. Or we can sing that familiar children’s song in our hearts, “Jesus loves me, this I know.” As we carry that truth with us throughout the day, we’ll bask in the warmth of His love!

I am so glad that our Father in heaven
Tells of His love in the Book He has given;
Wonderful things in the Bible I see—
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me. —Bliss

God loves us not because of who we are, but because of who He is.

Read: Romans 8:31-39

Keep yourselves in the love of God. —Jude 1:21

Bible in a Year:
Job 36-37; Acts 15:22-41

G'day, Janey...((HUGS))

[Kathy in Alaska]

YIKES! I was hoping they were starting to get a handle on it, at least being able to get a safety zone near Chena Hot Springs Road.

Wide angle view of the western perimeter of the Stuart Creek No. 2 fire, looking from the southwest to the northeast. Eielson AFB is in the foreground, west of the fire perimeter at 7.2 miles. 63 acres and growing.

Eielson AFB (kinda near Fairbanks) is about 350 miles north of Anchorage.
