What ...

 Tonight's Bible Study  offered some probing questions I want to consider ... 

For example, "What type of older person do I want to be?  Another question was this, "What type of legacy will I leave behind? 

Walking in nature gives me a perfect time to ponder questions and pray. Since God is everywhere, praying in God's creation is a great place to pray.

Monday Musings ... Election Day

 The poll that 

matters  is the one

that happens on 

Election Day."

Heather Wilson 

This time last week, I was in bed preparing to get up at 4:00 am, to be at the polls. I arrived at the precinct at 5:00 am. Thank God I was able to serve with the entire day! The training  provided by our local clerk allowed election officials to serve without incident. At each station, Democrats and Republicans served our community well.

 All day long, voters provided their identification and proceeded through the lines. What impressed me... So many first time volunteers. I congratulated them for taking their civic duty seriously. 

While the election is over, now we prepare to continue to stay engaged in local and state politics. Civic duties need to happen every day and not just on election days.

Don't worry ...

 Psalm 37 

Don't worry about the wicked

or envy those who do wrong.

For like grass, they soon fade away.

Like flowers, they soon wither.

Trust in the LORD and do good. 

Then you will live safely in the land and 

prosper.

Take delight in the LORD, 

and he will give you your heart's desires.

Commit everything you do to the LORD.

Trust him, and he will help you. 

He will make your innocence radiate like the 

dawn.

and the justice of your cause will shine 

like the noonday sun. 

Be still in the presence of the LORD. 

and wait patiently for him to act. 

Don't fret about evil people who prosper

or fret about their wicked schemes. 

Stop being angry! 

Turn from our rage!

Do not lose your temper - 

it only leads to harm.

For the wicked will be destroyed.

but those who trust in the LORD will 

possess the land. 

Verse 1 - 9 (NLT)

Hello November

  Welcome Fall! This year the fall leaves look so vibrant.  Are you looking forward to enjoying hot cider, warm donuts, cozy blankets, sweaters, flannel sheets, hot cocoa,  fire pits, scarves, walks in the park, Hallmark movies, family gatherings  or maybe you will enjoy some silence. 

Whatever you need, I pray that God will give you special time to enjoy seasonal joys. 

Make  room for joy in your life.
