Hey friends, how are you today? How was your week? Our weather has been rather erratic, this week.ย ย We went from being rather chilly for June to hot and humid summer temperatures.ย ย Today we are down to comfortable; I rather like comfortable, myself.ย ย Itโs about 74ยฐ, although itโs cloudy today, the sun peeks through every break in the clouds.ย ย Itโs also rather windy, which keeps the humidity down and that, my friends, signifies a beautiful day in the making, especially because โhot flashโย continues to be a thing.ย ย Of course, the beauty in this beautiful day depends on my approach to the matters this day eventually brings my way.ย ย

If I try to make a success of this day in my own strength, then this day is already doomed.ย ย ย In my own strength, failure is inevitable because pride and selfishness are my two favorite companions, on days when my eyes are not fixed on the Lord.ย ย I love myself, I love my ways, even when I do โgoodโ for others, my motives are not above reproach (they are โsuspectโ, as my girls would say).ย BUT GODโฆ I read a verse that included these words today (Eph. 2:4).ย ย And I realized how absolutely blessed I am that these words apply to me.ย ย All I can say is thisโฆ HE makes me look very good.ย ย I owe it to those around me to make HIM look good too.ย ย May my life reflect His glory today.ย ย

These are a few photos taken with my trusty camera, but not by me (just in case you missed that) they were taken by the baby (Anna) on my birthday.














Have a fabulous day today. What are your plans for today?

Hi Brenda. Very nice photos. I loved your words about having your days reflect Gods glory, I must remember that. After work, I’ll be going to a scouts meeting, I’m secretary for our local scout group. Later this week, on Thursday, me & my husband are off to Spain to stay with my sister for few days, she moved out there with her husband last year & I’ve not been out to see her yet, we’re very excited, I can’t wait to see her precious, beautiful face. Xx

Trade ya weather! HOT here, had a big thunderstorm go through last night, knocked our power out for about 3 hours, but nothing worse. My brother next county over had his trampoline tossed up into a tree, but that was it other than a few broken branches, nothing major. Gotta love Midwest weather!!
Sing to God, sing in praise of his name, extol him who rides on the clouds; rejoice before himโhis name is the Lord. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. Psalm 68:4-5
Looks like a great way to spend your birthday, and hope it was a happy one!
