Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...are you and Blue still able to get around? Good hiking weather for Penny?
It has decided to warm up just a bit and have some rain every day til next Friday; then maybe some snow. Thankfully the nights are cooperating and staying just above freezing most nights.
Good evening, Pro...did you ever jump out of a perfectly good airplane?
All rested and ready for your long day?
Snow and cold here again. No accumulation. I need some new indoor activities. I guess I could look at people jump out of airplanes or run or something.
No jumping out of airplanes, we did a lot of mountain rappelling though, a real adrenaline rush!
Resting now for my long Thursday.
Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...keep enjoying your time off.
Today was so lovely I went to work on my motorcycle! :-)
But now, it’s a wee bit chilly!
Bible in a Year:
Then he placed his right hand on me and said, Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. Revelation 1:17
It was just a touch, but it made all the difference to Colin. As his small team was preparing to do charitable work in a region known for hostility to believers in Jesus, his stress level began to rise. When he shared his worries with a teammate, his friend stopped, placed his hand on his shoulder, and shared a few encouraging words with him. Colin now looks back on that brief touch as a turning point, a powerful reminder of the simple truth that God was with him.
John, the close friend and disciple of Jesus, had been banished to the desolate island of Patmos for preaching the gospel, when he heard a loud voice like a trumpet (Revelation 1:10). That startling event was followed by a vision of the Lord Himself, and John fell at his feet as though dead. But in that frightening moment, he received comfort and courage. John wrote, He placed his right hand on me and said, Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last (v. 17).
God takes us out of our comfort zone to show us new things, to stretch us, to help us grow. But He also brings the courage and comfort to go through every situation. He wont leave us alone in our trials. He has everything under control. He has us in His hands.
How is God taking you out of your comfort zone? What friends has He given you for support and comfort?
Jesus, help me recognize Your presence and Your touch in the midst of things that frighten me.
Gave away an FAA air safety flag today to a gentleman whos son in in the Civil Air Patrol.
He was stoked.
Glad he liked it, he will use it to teach kids.

BRRR! Good evening, mountainlion. Indoor activities seem a good choice. Stay warm!
We are back to rain...probably for more than a week. I think we’ve made up for the drought.
