Well Monday started out on the chilly side but quickly warmed up to the upper 60's despite very little sunshine at all during the day. But at least it warmed up from Sunday morning that was very cold. Today was my stitch removing day and I was released to play pickle ball once again, so I'll be on the court this morning for the first time in over two weeks. The wound has basically healed with some redness and some weeping from where the stitches were but I think eventually it will heal completely.
I did my morning quiet time to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several for comfort and healing. I got word that an old dear classmate who I had taken to the prom my junior year had passed away. She and I attend church together for years and were close friends. She had been married several times and had grand children and the last time we saw her was at St.Johns when we attended church a couple years back. She had two other sisters one older and one younger who had passed away as well. I'm saddened for her only sibling a younger brother Steven who still attends church there.
I didn't do much otherwise except some transplanting of some lettuce and kale seedlings into the garden proper and then hand watered. I noticed some small green 'maters on the Celebrity plant and I still have several Roma's but they except for that one aren't turning. Its supposed to get close to 80 by weeks end so maybe that will be just what they need to start turning as its been very chilly at night and with the one night in the 30's I'm sure that slowed that progress down.
I read the afternoon away as well as watched some news feeds on the war in Israel and they are kicking butt and killing many of the terrorists. This present administration is wanting Israel to cease fire with the help of the radical left in NATO to give Iran a chance to fully equip their proxies once again in Hamas. It's unbelievable how the vile MSM is playing the war in favor of the terrorists while using the locals who support these barbarians as victims. I personally hope Israel takes over the Gaza strip completely and rules that area politically as well.
Well we had our small life group supper at Nancy and Brian's place in Largo last evening and there were 14 of us in attendance and we all brought something to add to the supper which was delicious. Afterwards we gathered around to talk about the past Sunday 's message by Pastor Derek with questions. It was a great discussion and we all are in agreement that Truth shall prevail from the pulpit which is and has been watered down from churches and denominations which is the reason this nation and the world is in such disarray from the TRUTH of GOD's word. Pastor Derek speaks it as bluntly as Paul writes about it in the book of Roman's as does Gary Hamrick and Jack Hibbs, both of whom we love as well as Derek.
Well I dropped off the Botbyl's and Lundgrens who rode with us to the meeting then I settled into some ALONE time before lights out at 10 for me, LATER
