Hello my friends! Well, today was another beautiful ordinary day for me! Tomorrow I start working for Lori again as I do every year at this time to be available for gift certificates for Massages. I 'll be doing this thread later at night then, as we only get home later. Have a blessed night and blessed Wednesday!
No one can live for himself alone for then he will have no purpose in life.
To give of self is one of life's greatest joys and blesses us with a full and rich life.
Lord, help me to be selfless and loving to those around me.
S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y
"You show me the path of life. In your presence there is fullness of
joy; in your right hand are pleasures forevermore." ~Psalm 16:11
M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y
The kingdom of heaven is within us. God can see, as no one can see, what
is within us. God can see us growing more and more like God. That is our
reason for existence, to grow more and more like God, to develop more
and more of the spirit of God within us. We can often see in others
those qualities and aspirations which we ourselves possess. So also can
God recognize God's own spirit in us. Our motives and aspirations can be
understood by those who have attained the same spiritual level as we
have.
P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y
I pray that I may not expect complete understanding from others. I pray
that I may only expect this from God, as I try to grow more like God.

Good luck with the job Gloria.
I know you do it every year so I hope it's very succesful.
Remember I was telling you about the organ we have and it is broke and we haven't been able to get it repaired.
After purchasing a Yamaha keyboard last week and finding out it is way to complicated for "75" year old me. We sent it back. So I decided to stick with organ because that's what I know.
We decided to look into a used organ and we found one on Craigslist and the young man who was selling it was very closs to us, I would not buy anything on those lists if I could not see it and try it first, we went to see it last night and it is in great shape and sounds great not a scratch on it, that could be because he got it from a church so it was taken good care of, and believe me the price was great too. This fellow buys used organs and sells them. I really think the good Lord was watching out for us in this matter, I was praying very hard for something nice to come a long, and thank you all for your prayers too.
Blessings to all.

Hi Gloria and all, Just wanted to share a blessing. Remember baby Dakota? Well she's going home this week. She's over 4 pounds, which to me still seems tiny, and they're letting her parents take her home. They were allowed to "sleep over" at the hospital with her in the room to see how it is taking care of her overnight.
There will be a visiting nurse checking on her, I don't know how often, at home too.
Please pray for these kids that their baby continues to do well. They're a little worried about her eyes, possibly the retinas, but hopefully it's nothing serious.
She was born October 23, not due till Dec 28. What a miracle! Thanks marmot

After reading your post, I wanted to tell you that I'm happy to hear baby Dakota is going home. What a wonderful blessing.
My daughter, now my 32 year old daughter, was a small preemie too and also got to come home at 4 lbs. She was due in June but decided to make an early appearance in April. I compared her weight to a can of Crisco shortening. LOL.
I will keep that little family in my prayers and that baby Dakota thrives, just as well as my baby did, so many years ago.

Good morning,
Gloria, you've been helping Lori for a few years now, I hope you sell a lot of gift certificates to bring more business.
Harlene, I didn't know you played the organ. I took piano lessons years ago but had to stop because my work schedule changed. You sure are a talented lady.
It's a beautiful day so far but rain is to move in tonight. I wish it would stay 75 year round. I'd be happy for that.
Everyone have a great day. God bless.

Hi Marmot what a nice Christmas blessing for little Dakota to be going home.
She and her parents will be staying in my prayers.

Lucy - it's the seventh year now that I'm working as a volunteer for Lori during Christmas time. It's usually quiet there, but I'm available!
