Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Tuesday, November 19th

Another Beautiful Morning!  I had a good night sleep last night. :-).

We are having another warm spell for the next couple of days! Highs in the 50's today and tomorrow our highs will be in the upper 40's. Then our days go cold...I mean back to normal for this time of year. :-)

Today, I have my hair appointment, a cut and color.  I'm not sure Nikki will give me the color.  I've been itching my head so much I have a few sores... I'll see what she says when I get there.
I also ate something I shouldn't have, now I am paying for it.  I ate lasagna and spaghetti yesterday...both have tomatoes in it.  I started flaring last night and I'm still having the neuropathy this morning... :-(

I received a call from the hospital social worker yesterday...it sounds like grandma Gloria will be in the hospital until sometime next week now... :-(  That's the plan so far...

Yesterday, I ran down to Winona to pick up my medication and a few groceries for the deer hunters...now we are ready for the second deer season hunters... :-)

Jesse and the boys are fighting the same cold/flu that's been going around here.  Hopefully they are able to get over it quicker than we have...it's no fun. :-(

I am so thankful for our family and friends...

Today's Bible Study

The Promised Holy Spirit

Read | John 14:23-26

Jesus assured His followers that it would be to their benefit if He left the earth. He could then send His Spirit, who plays an essential role in the life of each believer (John 16:7).

The indwelling Holy Spirit serves as our:

• Security. At salvation, we are placed in Christ and sealed in Him by the third person of the Trinity. The presence of God’s Spirit marks us as the Father’s children and is a pledge that we will belong to Him forever (Eph. 1:13-14).

• Helper. God the Holy Spirit provides wisdom, knowledge, and understanding (1 Cor. 2:12). Because He is divine, He knows ways to help us that no mere human could figure out. He strengthens us when we are weak and prays for us when we do not know how (Rom. 8:26).

• Guide. The Holy Spirit can direct us appropriately because He knows the truth of every situation, the hearts of people around us, and our own attitudes and motives. His guidance will always be right because He knows the Lord’s will for us (1 Cor. 2:9-11). We can trust what He says—He doesn’t speak on His own initiative but communicates only what He hears from God (John 16:13-14).

• Spiritual Power Source. The Spirit releases His power into our lives for the purpose of fruitful service and godly living (Eph. 3:16). This divine energy and authority is always available to us, as long as we are yielded to His control.

The Holy Spirit is a VIP—a very important person. Fully God, He lives within us to carry out our triune God’s divine purposes. Are you following His lead?

Another beautiful day to look forward to...
