Sometimes nations go mad. Japan and Germany went mad in the 1930’s. I wish Japan and the United States never became enemies but fascism and emperor worship made the Japanese insane at the time.
Remember yes. But it’s great that Japan has been a good ally since then.

Howdy, Kathy.
What was your final total on snowfall? You were just shy of a foot last I saw last night and it was still coming down.

Fast-Food Encouragement
May you be richly rewarded by the Lord . . . under whose wings you have come to take refuge. Ruth 2:12
Maria carried her fast-food lunch to an empty table. As she bit into her burger, her eyes locked on those of a young man seated several tables away. His clothes were soiled, his hair hung limply, and he clutched at an empty paper cup. Clearly, he was hungry. How could she help? A gift of cash seemed unwise. If she bought a meal and presented it to him, might he be embarrassed?
Just then Maria remembered the story of Ruth where Boaz, a wealthy landowner, invited the impoverished immigrant widow to glean from his fields. He ordered his men: “Let her gather among the sheaves and don’t reprimand her. Even pull out some stalks for her from the bundles and leave them for her to pick up, and don’t rebuke her” (Ruth 2:15–16). In a culture where women were utterly dependent on their connection to men for survival, Boaz demonstrated God’s loving provision. Eventually, Boaz married Ruth, redeeming her from her serious need (4:9–10).
As Maria rose to leave, she placed her untouched packet of fries on a nearby table, meeting the man’s eyes as she did so. If he was hungry, he might glean from her “fast-food field.” God’s heart is revealed in the stories of Scripture as they illustrate creative solutions to encourage. — Elisa Morgan
Is there someone around you today that you might invite to “glean” from the abundance in your life? Ask God to reveal the needs around you that you might respond with His heart.
Dear Father, show me who needs me to extend Your love to them today.

Good evening, radu...how’s the rain doing? Enough for your water table to rise?
More than 20” of snow here...been snowing all night and all day. It has finally stopped. I hope my plow guy comes before morning. If he does not, there is no getting out of my driveway...it is more than knee deep.
