Friday, June 14th
Woke up to another beautiful morning. Sunny and 60 degree this morning. Rain is expected for this afternoon through tomorrow.
I've been having trouble with my phone so I wasn't getting calls, internet service or email. Not sure what was wrong. What had we done with out our cell phones. :-)
We rely on them so much.
Well I'm during pretty good...just alittle sore this morning. I can take Advil or Tylenol if I have problems with my arm.
Kaylee stayed over last night and is still sleeping. I will see how I do this morning and if I'm up to it Kaylee and I will run over to Faribault to visit Grandmas. . :-)

A God You Can Count On
Read | Ephesians 2:4-10
On the basis of God’s character, what assurances can we depend upon every single day?
1. God will extend His loving kindness to us. Sending His Son to die in our place proves the Father’s love for us, and His unchanging nature confirms that He will love us forever (Ps. 100:5; (1 John 4:10).
2. The Lord will help us do what He requires of us. He provides not only the spiritual wisdom to carry out our tasks but also the inner strength to complete them. We will receive from Him everything that we need. (Heb. 13:21).
3. God will limit the temptations and pressures He allows in our life. Like a master craftsman, He knows what force can be applied to shape us into Jesus’ image without breaking us (2 Cor. 4:8).
4. God will strengthen and protect us so we do not have to compromise or yield. Though we are weak, He understands how strong we can be when His divine power is working in us. And the Holy Spirit gives us the spiritual strength to say no to temptation (1 Cor. 10:13).
5. Our Father will forgive our sins. He stands ready to receive our confession, forgive us, and bring us back into fellowship with Him—every time (1 John 1:9).
In addition to these blessings for our days on earth, we also have assurances about the future. We can trust that life does not end when our earthly body dies (2 Cor. 5:8), that we will live in heaven forever, and that Jesus Christ will return someday to set all things right.
Life certainly has trials (John 16:33). But when challenges press in, think about all the reasons we can depend upon God.
Another great day!
