You're welcome, of course, Meg! I don't have many pictures this year - I'm way behind the power curve.

Hi Amy! I thought I'd reply on the June thread.

‘Seeing’ you reminds me of hearing about your trips home with Winston in tow. :) We shared some fun times

Haha! Yes, those were good times. I did a lot of business-related travelling this past year, but only had books on CD accompanying me in the car. When I'm at home, I try to spend as much free time with my son, who just turned 1 in May.

I hope all is well with you!

[Kitty Mittens]

Thank you for the Ping, Dear Meg!

Sweet Jaycee, I'm Sorry to Hear this,
And will Pray with All my Heart!

Getting It Right On The Inside
June 4, 2012

I love the story of Jonah! It’s full of drama and important life lessons. After stubbornly refusing to do God’s will, Jonah finally preached a revival service in Nineveh that would have made him one of the most successful missionaries of his time. When the people repented and turned from their wicked ways—and when God relented and turned from His anger against them—you would have expected Jonah to rejoice. Instead, he was angry that God was merciful. Why? Although he was finally obeying God by doing the right thing in the right place, he was deeply flawed on the inside.

Like Jonah, if we are not careful, we can be spiritually “looking good” on the outside, but far from God in our hearts. He is most interested in what we are like on the inside. His Word is “sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit” (Heb. 4:12). With it, He performs divine surgery to remove the greed, dishonesty, hatred, pride, and selfishness that live in the deep shadows of our hearts.

So the next time the Holy Spirit convicts you and asks you about your bad attitude (see Jonah 4:4)—listen carefully. Surrender and let Him change you from the inside out.

I confess, heavenly Father, that I know what it’s like
to be more concerned about my outward obedience
than my inner rebellion. I want to look good to others.
Forgive me. Change me and make me pure within.

If God controls you on the inside, you’ll be genuine on the outside.

Read: Jonah 4

Then the Lord said, “Is it right for you to be angry?” —Jonah 4:4

Bible in a Year:
Psalms 31-33

Amazing how careless most of us are. speaking before thinking, and passing on what may be, for all we know an untruth or bit of gossip. To no purpose really. It may do harm. Certainly not good. We have become so self centered and isolated we seem to believe those we meet on Face Book or Twitter are real friends, and maybe it is true. Likely not. Many are those looking for an advantage. Young people especially are fooled easily. Forgive us Father for sitting in isolation and failing to go out and tell about Jesus, in His name and for His Praise, we thank thee LORD. Amen.

Habits ... We make our habits

And then

Our habits “make us”... do or not do, say or not say, etc. ___________ it is much more difficult to break a habit than it was to create one. Ask any smoker, drinker, or any addiction , food, drugs,shopping, Free Republic, ...

Father God, we give to thee our needs, knowing thou can do anything, so we wait, and bless thee and pray for release of those things thou would not have us not to do, We praise thee, we turn to thee and thy grace daily, and trust thee in Jesus name, amen.
