HAPPY THURSDAY !
Good News ! Dad has his pacemaker now ! If all goes well he should be coming home sometime today ! He did very well with the surgery yesterday and everything looks fine. Thank the good Lord !
Also today, please join me in praying for our ‘little ray of Sunshine’ as he will be having surgery to remove enlarged tonsils and adenoids. And…
Please pray for God's protection of our troops and HIS wisdom for their commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
God Bless You !
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !

TODAY’S SMILE
Two tourists trying to pronounce the name of the Louisiana town of "Natchitoches where they had just stopped for lunch called their waitress and asked if she could help them.
"If you wouldn't mind," one of them asked."Just say the name of the place where we are -- very slowly and clearly"
"Certainly," the waitress answered. She put her elbows on the counter and her chin in her hands and told them to listen very carefully.
"It's Brrrrr Grrrrr Kiiinnnnng."

TODAY’S REFLECTION
Surely the Lord is in this place, and I was not aware of it
Genesis 28:16.
How easy it is to forget that God is in this place, right where we are, especially if we are discontented where we are. The Almighty God can be found in the most illogical places. Why not, for He is omnipresent.
When we least feel His presence, that is when He is most likely to be with us. May we practice the presence of our God who loves and cares, no matter where we are and no matter what the overwhelming circumstances are. They can never overwhelm our God.
