Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Day!
I went to get a shorter hair cut yesterday.  A style that won't look like hat hair when I take off my hat. :-( I found some different hair covering at the cancer center but I haven't decided whether to buy them yet.  The prices run from $13.00 to $28.00 a piece. ??? Still trying to decide if I should spend the money on them or not...I'll probably regret it if I don't pick a couple up...

I went to bed at 9:00pm, woke up at 4:00am and went out to the living room.  Fell back to sleep and woke up again at around 6:30am...this seems to be the routine. 

Today, they are having storage shed actions...thought about going to see what the are like.  My dad used to go to them.
There are in 5 different locations.  Starting at one, then moving to the next.  Sounds like it would be interesting.  We watch the storage wars on TV. :-)

So thankful for all I can do...

Today's Bible Study

Seeking the Lord
Read | Hosea 10:12

We all spend some time seeking the Lord, but to be truly successful at it, we must learn to adjust our focus. The reason focus is important is that what we behold, we become. If we fix our attention on the sensual and materialistic, it won’t be long before we ourselves start leaning in that direction. I challenge you not to sit in front of the television, or partake of other forms of entertainment that allow unhealthy ideas into your mind night after night. While you might think it has no influence, it actually has a subtle but terrible gripping effect on you.

If, on the other hand, you focus your love and attention on Jesus, you will become like Him. As believers, we can focus on Him when we pray, when we study the Scriptures, and when we meditate on God’s truths. But we must go deeper, to the point that we are listening and sharing our hearts with Him. If we are open and transparent before Him, He will speak and pour Himself into us, like a spiritual version of osmosis.

When we learn to do this, we will find that our hunger and thirst for everything else begins to diminish. It’s not that our desires will disappear; they instead become redirected. You will discover you have a growing hunger for God and a longing to know Him in a deep, personal way. And you will notice your joy bubbling up and overflowing so that it cannot be stopped or stifled. Why? Because once you have begun to seek the Lord, you will recognize Him as your all in all.

Looking forward to another great day...
