Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...did you get to walk today?

Did Penny get a doggie biscuit at the bank?

No snow yesterday, as predicted, but more predicted in the next few hours.

Spent the whole morning in church playing piano, and when I got home, Penny and I went for a little walk. In the meantime, I’m learning a lot of new music, so Penny is getting a lot of couch time. :-) (((Not that she minds a bit!)))

Howdy, Kathy.

It looks like y’all lucked up again and missed out on snow. Even had a little sunshine this afternoon.

We had sunshine today, too, though it didn’t make it all that warm. Clouds are moving back in as the next storm systems marches towards us.

Lift Up Your Eyes

Bible in a Year:

My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Psalm 121:2 The clouds hung low, blocking the horizon and limiting visibility to only a few hundred yards. The minutes dragged on. The effect on my mood was noticeable. But then, as afternoon approached, the clouds began to break, and I saw it: beautiful Pikes Peak, the most recognizable landmark of my city, flanked on each side by the mountain range. A smile broke over my face. I considered that even our physical perspective—our literal line of sight—can affect our spiritual vision. And I was reminded of the psalmist singing, “I lift up my eyes to the mountains” (Psalm 121:1). Sometimes we simply need to lift our eyes a bit higher!

The psalmist pondered where his help came from, maybe because the hilltops around Israel were dotted with altars to pagan gods and often contained robbers. Or it could have been because the psalmist looked up beyond the hills to Mount Zion where the temple stood and remembered that the Maker of heaven and earth was his covenant God (v. 2). Either way, to worship we must look up. We have to lift our eyes higher than our circumstances, higher than our troubles and trials, higher than the empty promises of the false gods of our day. Then we can see the Creator and Redeemer, the One who calls us by name. He’s the One who will “watch over your coming and going” today and forevermore (v. 8).

Reflect & Pray

How can you “look up” today—beyond your circumstances—to see God? What would it look like to call upon Him for the help you really need?

Dear Father, thank You that You’re the Creator and Keeper—the One who made the heavens and the earth and watches over me. Help me to lift my eyes higher to see You and to put my trust in You.

Howdy, PRO.

Did your daughter have an uneventful trip? No dicey roads due to snow through the mountains, I hope.

Hi radu, daughter made it here fine, no big travel problems. I went to visit her today at Robin's and will bring lunch over for her and son tomorrow before she ventures back to Seattle.

That's all I got, howz things your way?

Good evening, radu...still cold? Rain?

We have a small possibility for snow. It would be nice to have flocked trees again.

Very good. I know you’ve had snow out that way and wasn’t sure what shape the roads through the mountains are in. As I recall, she isn’t overly fond of driving on icky roads.

Still cold here but we had sunshine for a change. A decent day to run a few errands before the snow we expect tomorrow.

Hey there, Kathy.

No rain today. Sunshine instead, though it’s still cold. Snow’s on its way though.

The system up your way doesn’t seem to have enough “oomph” to shove the snow over the mountains. It’s been snowing on the east side of them for a couple of days.

I agree. Flocked trees again would be pretty. It’s a little blah without it.
