Hey!

My night is free...my dance card is empty...and I've got my drink in front of me! (Diet caffeine free Pepsi...pretty much just colored water! lol) Like a WILD CHILD, I like living on the edge! :)

I only ask one thing....PLEASE! Check the guys at the door for Polo cologne...lol. Allergies are killin' me and that stuff (if they even make it anymore) makes my head pound!

It seems something happens to women when they get in the grocery store. If grocery prices keep rising, I'm gonna have to stay away from the stores. I can run to the Dollar Store and get coffee (the same kind I use) and when I do that I don't go spending too much money.

They also carry the milk I drink, so I usually always get it there. Its just about 6 blocks. I can get in and out and back home in 10-15 minutes. If I run in the big food stores, I always buy too much and sometimes I'm too tired to carry them in and put away but I have to anyway.

I will finish cleaning up the kitchen in the morning as I am worn out today. I may go to bed a little early tonight. Its 10:30 here now.

I don't have the luxuries of a big town/city.

Closest dollar store is 30 miles! But, when I go up the hill I most certainly do hit that store!

I have 3 different $ Stores fairly close-by and I like a lot of things about them. Their cleaning stuff is good. They carry name brands and cheaper brands. They have a cleaner that I love for a dollar. Its called Awesome Orange and is in a bottle sorta like Windex. Its good in the bathrooms and the kitchen. These stores are good if you need paper towels or toilet tissue quickly and don’t wanna go to the store, also Kleenex and off brands.

I’m turning in, dear ones. Have funzies...see ya tomorrow!

The Stones
March 20, 2011

Not long ago, our friends had a gathering at their house and invited a group of people who were all music lovers. Kevin and Ilse, who are both gifted musicians, requested that each person or couple bring a rock for a fire pit that was often the site for their evening musical jams. But they didn’t want just plain ol’ rocks. They asked that each one be marked with a name or date or event that indicated how or when everyone had become friends.

God felt that the Israelites needed a reminder of an amazing event in their lives. Although the Jordan River had been at flood stage, the Israelites had been able to cross over on dry ground because God had stopped the water from flowing (Josh. 3:13-17). Something similar had happened years before in an escape from Egypt (see Ex. 14:21-31). On this occasion, however, God instructed His people to build a memorial of stones so that in the future when children would ask about the stones, parents could remind them of the mighty hand of God (Josh. 4:23-24).

As God continually cared for the Israelites, He continues to provide for us today. What “stones of remembrance” will you use to remind your children, grandchildren—and even yourself—of the evidence of God’s might?

God’s faithfulness we’ve known throughout the years,
His oneness with us in our joys and tears;
So many times the Lord has helped us through,
Has answered prayer and given strength anew. —F. Hess

Remembering God’s goodness is a good cure for doubt.

Read: Joshua 4

When your children ask . . . “What are these stones?” then you shall let [them] know, saying, “Israel crossed over this Jordan on dry land.” —Joshua 4:21-22
Bible in a year:
Joshua 4-6; Luke 1:1-20

Good Sunday Morning


"God’s faithfulness we’ve known throughout the years,
His oneness with us in our joys and tears;
So many times the Lord has helped us through,
Has answered prayer and given strength anew. —F. Hess"

Thank you, Rus, for this lovely devotion,
Wishing you a blessed Lord's Day
