Hello my friends! It was a very nice day today, thanks be to God! Nice weather, and we got to spend time with Lori at her place, first supper, she made salmon on the grill and corn on cob, and we canned pickled beets. She got her dehydrator out, never used it before,, and I washed it, and we are using it to dehydrate onions. In the morning we'll go there and he'll pick up the pickled beets and the onions which we'll share. Onions and Corn on cob come from his brothers' farm.

~THIS IS JUST A RESTING PLACE ~

Sometimes the road of life seems long

as we travel through the years,

And with hearts that are broken

and eyes brimful of tears,

We falter in our weariness

and sink beside the way

But God leans down and whispers,

"Child, there'll be another day."

And the road will grow much smoother

and much easier to face,

So do not be disheartened -

this is just a resting place.

MOTHER'S PRAYER TO THE GUARDIAN ANGEL OF HER CHILDREN

I humbly salute you, O you faithful, heavenly Friends of my children! I give you heartfelt thanks for all the love and goodness you show them. At some future day I shall, with thanks more worthy than I can now give, repay your care for them, and before the whole heavenly court acknowledge their indebtedness to your guidance and protection. Continue to watch over them. Provide for all their needs of body and soul. Pray, likewise, for me, for my husband, and my whole family, that we may all one day rejoice in your blessed company. Amen.

DEVELOP THE RIGHT (SELF) ATTITUDE

Author Unknown

Here are 10 suggestions to help you develop and maintain a healthy

self-image. Read them slowly. Meditate on them regularly.

1. Hate your sin, but never hate yourself.

2. Be quick to repent.

3. When God gives you light, walk in it.

4. Stop saying negative things about yourself. God loves you and it's

wrong to hate what He loves. He has great plans for you, so you're in

conflict with Him when you speak negatively concerning your future.

5. Never be afraid to admit that you've made a mistake and don't

always assume that when things go wrong, it must be 'my fault'.

6. Don't meditate excessively on what you've done, right or wrong;

both of these activities keep your mind on you! Center your thoughts

on Christ.

7. Take good care of yourself physically. Make the best of what God

gave you to work with, but don't be obsessed with your appearance.

8. Never stop learning but don't allow your education to become a

point of pride. God doesn't use you because of what's in your head: He

uses you because of what's in your heart.

9. Realize that your talents are a gift, not something you have

manufactured yourself; never look down on people who can't do what you

do.

10. Don't despise your weaknesses they keep you dependent on God.
