I should have walked outside this morning but chose instead to do the treadmill. I didn’t realize how warm it was. Beautiful day! I worked until about 12:30, then came home and caught up on my daily journal. Obviously if I had been doing it DAILY I wouldn’t have to catch up! I got behind a few days. Feels like I track most of my days on the Word Garden and it’s like I’m doing it twice. I do not – mostly – share my FEELINGS on the Word Garden – which I do in my journal.
I picked up Autmn after lunch, and since everyone was out and about we brought her little sister Josie with us, too. We all three worked together to make Oreo Ice Cream dessert for Autmn’s dinner on Thursday. Josie licked the bowl, of course! Then Chris and her friend Hope skate-boarded over to visit for a bit. So I had all four girls here for a little while. Autmn made Josie mac/cheese and they are watching a movie on Netflix. I’ll take them home when it’s over.
And the skateboards!
I will share Paul’s message from River Hill today. The new series will lead up to Easter. This week, A FEARLESS SAVIOR. Jesus didn’t NEED righteousness; he WAS righteousness. When we was baptized, it symbolized that a sacrifice could not be offered until it was washed. We was baptized to fulfill all righteousness. Jesus would be the sacrifice for all mankind. Then, Jesus spent 40 days in the wilderness being tempted and tested – He was DRIVEN there; he didn’t just WANDER there. He prayed and fasted and resisted Satan and the wild beasts (which were NOT lions and tigers…). The angels ministered to and comforted him. Jesus did not cower; he was fearless. Satan tired to: 1) destroy the savior. God would determine Christ’s destiny, not Satan. 2) destroy our faith. FEAR is not part of our ‘God Image’ – fear is a product of our sin. God uses fear to build his kingdom. Put your trust in Jesus always.
On this day in 1864 Ulysses S Grant was appointed commander of the Union army, and in 1964 the first Ford Mustang was produced. In 2020 Italy locked down the whole country due to COVID-19 outbreak. Amerigo Vespucci was born in 1454. I never really understand how our country was named after him…. Bobby Fisher – world champion chess player – was born in 1943, George Burns died in 1996 at age 100, and in 1796 Napoleon Bonaparte married Josephine. And my friend Tom is having a birthday today – Tom is a fellow writer and a retired nurse. He likes to portray Colonel Sanders and does a great job! So happy birthday Colonel Tom Beck. Have a great day!
TOMORROW March 10 is:
- National Blueberry Popover Day
- National Mario Day
- National Pack Your Lunch Day
- National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
- National Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day
As I don’t have to go anywhere tomorrow, I won’t be packing my lunch. I’ll just think of something fun to have for lunch right in my own kitchen! It will be cleaning day for me – oh, fun! But I like to clean, so no problem! God bless…
