Yo, Early Bird. Hope youve had a good week. I think were all just hangin in there right bow! LOL!
Yo Beachie, hope all is well with you!
All is as well as it can be, for now.
Hope you are doing well, too.
Doesn't matter, our gun range reopens next week and son and I will be heading out there to do some father/son bonding and shooting all types of fun stuff, LOL.
Hai Beachie! (((HUGS))) ... Keeping safe??
Have you been reading about the dumba$$ Michigan governor? She’s like the wicked witch. Hubby’s family is in Michigan and keeping him updated on her crazy restrictions.
Good evening Janey ((HUGS))
Keeping as safe as I can.
How about you? Are you grounded?

Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
Bible in a Year:
Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into Gods love and keep you strong.
As I shared with my counselor my roller-coaster of emotions after a stress-filled week, she listened thoughtfully. Then she invited me to look out the window at the trees, lush with autumnal oranges and golds, the branches swaying in the wind.
Pointing out that the trunks werent moving at all in the wind, my counselor explained, Were a bit like that. When life is blowing at us from every direction, of course our emotions will go up and down and all around. But sometimes we live as if we only have branches. Our goal is to help you find your own trunk. That way, even when life is pulling from all sides, you wont be living in your branches. Youll still be secure and stable.
Its an image thats stuck with me, and its similar to the image Paul offered new believers in Ephesians. Reminding them of Gods incredible gifta new life of tremendous purpose and value (Ephesians 2:610), Paul shared his longing that theyd become deeply rooted and established in Christs love (3:17), no longer blown here and there by every wind of teaching (4:14).
On our own, its easy to feel insecure and fragile, pummeled by our fears and insecurities. But as we grow in our true identity in Christ (vv. 2224), we can experience deep peace with God and each other (v. 3), nourished and sustained by Christs power and beauty (vv. 1516).
When do you feel most blown here and there by lifes challenges? How might remembering your identity in Jesus encourage and strengthen you?
Jesus, thank You for the overwhelmingly good news that the strength needed to withstand lifes challenges isnt our own. Help us to grow ever-deeper roots in Your love and our place in Your family.
Good evening, Janey ((HUGS))...are you finished testing? Ready to head out to pick up a plane?
