Daily Thoughts To Think About

Finally, brothers, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellance, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. - Philippians 4:8

God Has A Plan

Good Morning!

Ellen sent me a slew of “Post It Notes” from the Nubia Group. One of them says: When you reach your wit’s end, you will find God there.” Jamie Gant, my six year old granddaughter, after comforting Aunt Heather the other night, picked up that “God has a plan”. And doesn’t He, though.

Next week I will be in VBS. I haven’t had any golf time this week as I have been busy sewing Jeremiah Jellyfish, Flora Flying Fish, Paul the Porpoise with a Purpose, and Eelizabeth Eel – all characters created to talk about missions on the islands of Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, and Fiji. We still have a lot to do but thus far we have (1) created the script; (2) built an adjustable puppet blind; and put together most of the puppets. I still need a reader for Friday … but am convinced that God has a plan … and will provide.

I talked with Heather this morning. She has temporary housing for two weeks but needs to find an inexpensive apartment or duplex in the Cleveland area. Augie is entering his senior year at White County High school and really, really wants to finish school there. So pray hard … and realize that God has a plan.

Miss N began receiving shots for the lingering effects of her carcinoid tumor yesterday. She wasn’t feeling very well when I got home. So she needs your prayers. God has a plan for her.

Finally, we have reached the weeks end. Although we have had some drama this week, God has shown us His power and might in protecting and providing for our every need. You don’t have to go to church to praise Him … but there might just be somebody there who needs to hear about your blessings. I know several churches that would welcome you with open arms … like Victory Baptist Church in Douglasville GA and 1st Baptist Riverdale GA and many others close to you. We are a family – related through the blood of Jesus Christ, our Lord. And every family member needs a hug once in a while.

As my mother-in-law used to say “God is good all the time – and all the time God is good”. Have a great weekend. And remember … God has a plan!

Agape’


Mr. Jim


Prayer Need:
Barbara and Billie Jenkins especially need our prayers. These two saints of God have had health issues for several years and a life change is becoming necessary. Pray for our brother and sister at this time in their lives.

Shared Praises:
Thank you, Father, for the witness of so many who have endured the trials of life and who can testify of Your goodness and mercy.
