Another really hot day! After my early morning walk, I watered the gardens, then cut the back yard. The rest really didn’t need it. Well, maybe one spot which I easily handed;

Cutting the ‘grass’ in the front yard.

then I pulled a few stray weeds. Laundry, ironing, little house projects, then I went to pick Autmn up at a friend’s house in Scottdale. I thought I was lost, but I actually just didn’t realize that I wasn’t. We went shopping for a birthday present for my great niece, then I worked outside for about half an hour. As happened the other day, the wind kicked up and it POURED down rain. We need it! Hoping it cools things off.

I listened to a guest speaker from Vanderbilt church. I didn’t get his name. His message was DON’T LOOK BACK. A new start sounds good. Don’t believe the lies of your old life. Forget what is behind you and press on to your goal. God’s plans for you are good; don’t let memory be the enemy. When we look back we lock God out. We end up acting out our thoughts from the past until what we think about becomes reality. We think there is security in the past because it’s familiar, but looking back limits the future because we can’t be in 2 places at once. God is a God of 2nd chances (or 3rd or 4th…). Just keep getting up when you fall. You only fail when you give up! Follow the blueprint for your lives: God’s word! He’ll lead you forward to the future that he wants you to live! Don’t look back!
