~ Rainy Rainy Day ~          |
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
Rebecca and Russell’s doctors told them they couldn’t have children. But God had other ideas—and ten years later Rebecca conceived. The pregnancy was a healthy one; and when the contractions started, the couple excitedly rushed to the hospital. Yet the hours of labor grew long and more intense, and Rebecca’s body still wasn’t progressing enough for delivery. Finally, the doctor decided she needed to perform an emergency C-section. Fearful, Rebecca sobbed for her baby and herself. The doctor calmly assured her, saying, “I will do my best, but we’re going to pray to God because He can do more.” She prayed with Rebecca, and fifteen minutes later, Bruce, a healthy baby boy, was born.
That doctor understood her dependence on God and His power. She recognized that although she had the training and skill to do the surgery, she still needed God’s wisdom, strength, and help to guide her hands (Psalm 121:1–2).
It’s encouraging to hear about highly skilled people, or of anyone, who recognize they need Him—because, honestly, we all do. He’s God; we’re not. He alone “is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine” (Ephesians 3:20). Let’s have a humble heart to learn from Him and to trust Him in prayer “because He can do more” than we ever could.
Reflect & Pray
How have you gained an understanding of your own need for God and His power? How is this dependence seen in your daily life?
I need You and Your wisdom and power, God, for decisions, skill, work, relationships—all of my life.
Good evening, radu...so true, President Reagan, so true!!
Toasty day here...LOTS of ducks. The 7 were here, but the 6 are now 5. 25+ crabby adults.
Are you getting any pleasant weather yet?
Hi! And Happy Flag Day! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE USA ARMY!
Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...are you just relaxing this time home, or are you flying the jumpers?
hi Everybody!
(((HUGS))))
Howdy, Kathy.
Yes, so very true!
It looks like you’ve had a really nice day up there. A bit windy but lots of sunshine.
It was way too hot here and very muggy. They SAY we’re supposed to have slightly cooler temps and lower humidity later this week and we’re ready for that!
Sorry to hear the missing duckling didn’t reappear. It’s sad when a little one doesn’t make it. Sad enough when one of the adults gets snagged by an owl or hawk.
Maybe this will be the only loss and the other 12 will grow up to bring THEIR babies next year.
Howdy, PRO.
Have you had a relaxing weekend or have you been put back to work on projects? :-)
How was your weekend, any museum time? Kittehs doing OK?
Thanks for all you do, Kathy! Best wishes to you and yours.

Some yardwork sounds much easier than tearing down and rebuilding fence. You got lucky this time. LOL
Yes, I was at the museum Friday and yesterday. Not super busy either day but it was fun.
Went to a surprise birthday party for a friend this afternoon, then a little housework afterwards. Hubby just poked his head in to tell me he’s getting ready to torch the huge pile of tree debris in the field behind the house so I’m heading out. LOVES me some big fires.
I hope no one calls the fire department to report a barn fire like the last time we burned a huge pile back there. LOL! The field is next to the barn and from the road people can’t tell that it isn’t the barn burning.
Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.
Are you all rested up and ready to take on the new week?
