Rus, what cities in Tennessee will you be visiting? Good Luck with your venture! Tennessee had better treat you right and I’m positive they will!

This was so cute in answer to my ‘morning graphic’. The frame is so pretty and looks like leather. You had a lot of pretty graphics yesterday and there’s no way I could comment on all of them.

Lori, I hated to hear Chachi was sick again. Has she been on that strict diet the doctor ordered? (I was glad to hear that she was doing a bit better.)

I’m doing okay...just always lots to do and wish I had a bit more energy! It comes and goes. I get so much on my mind at Christmas, I feel fuzzy headed! I hope others know this feeling. LOL!

Sounds like a perfect deal, Billie. And I’m sure you all enjoy some fun while decorating!

I have some good friends now, but my very best friend is no longer with me and I still miss her today and she’s been gone 8 years. She and i could have done that for each other. She was one of those people that if she heard one of us was in the hospital, she would get there before we did....LOL!

Great! A lot of us really enjoy that voice! She is gifted with a smooth, perfect voice. And I do think she looks wonderful now, without going overboard!

What You Can Do
[I pray that] He would grant you . . . to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man. —Ephesians 3:16

Are you getting what you want out of life? Or do you feel that the economy, your government, your circumstances, or other outside factors are robbing you of value and joy?

Recently, a polling agency asked 1,000 people what they most desired in their lives. One fascinating result was that 90 percent of Bible-believing Christians said that they wanted these outcomes: a close relationship with God, a clear purpose in life, a high degree of integrity, and a deep commitment to the faith.

Notice that these heartfelt desires are all things we as individuals can do something about without outside human help. No government program will assist here, and tough economic times cannot steal these ideals. These life goals are achieved as we allow God’s Word to rule in our hearts and as we receive the Spirit’s strength to build up “the inner man” (Eph. 3:16), resulting in true joy.

In our complicated world, it’s tempting to put our quest for what we desire into the hands of others—to expect an outside entity to fulfill our desires. While we sometimes need help, and we cannot live in isolation, it’s not outside sources that provide true happiness. That comes from within—from letting Christ be at home in our hearts (v.17).

Holy Spirit, all divine,
Dwell within this heart of mine;
Cast down every idol throne,
Reign supreme and reign alone. —Reed

If a troubled world gets you down, look up to Jesus.


Bible in One Year: Ezekiel 47-48; 1 John 3

I hate to say but I’m not familiar with Louden or Charlotte areas. I live in Sullivan County and am close to Washington county. I’ll have to get my map out! Have a great day! (10 days)!!

My map shows Louden is close to or around the Knoxville area and also Charlotte is closer to Nashville. I have a nephew in Nashville. Would this be approximately the vicinity you are visiting?
