Another Beautiful Morning!
The ulcer on my right hand is healing....:-)
Yesterday, I was helping set up outside for a company picnic. By the time I left I had already swelled up. I also woke up several times overnight swollen and sore...
Today, I am taking it easy, meeting my sister, Brenda, at 3pm to get my nails done.
I am so thankful for all I can do...

God’s Perfect Love
By Charles Stanley
Read | 1 John 4:7-9
We were created to be members of God’s family and recipients of His perfect love. In fact, through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus, He demonstrated just how much He loves us.
When we receive Christ as our Savior, we become children of God and experience His unconditional love. Divine affection for us does not vary in quality or quantity. It will never end or even diminish. No circumstance can cause the Lord to stop loving us. Several stories in the New Testament exemplify this:
•Consider the Roman centurion who asked Jesus to heal his servant. Was the soldier’s request ignored because he wasn't one of God’s chosen people—the Jews? No. Seeing the man’s genuine faith, the Lord granted his request out of love for him (Luke 7:2-10).
•Jesus extended forgiveness to the thief on the cross, who placed his faith in Christ (23:39-43).
• Before his conversion, Saul of Tarsus was convinced that Jesus was not the promised Messiah and His followers must be stopped. To that end, the future apostle Paul persecuted the Christian Jews and uttered murderous threats against the church. God’s love did not even skip over one so violently opposed to His children. On the road to Damascus, the Lord appeared to him with an offer of salvation and gave him a great work to do—evangelizing the Gentile world (Acts 9:15).
The human mind cannot fully comprehend divine love. In Christ, thieves, persecutors, and those who may look like outsiders are all equally loved.
Looking forward to another great day...
