“Bless the Lord, Oh my soul, and all that is within me, bless His Holy Name.”<\/p>\n

I’m just sitting here, with thankful thoughts to the Lord, for how He gives us opportunities to serve Him right where we are. I have prayed that God would give me opportunities to minister to others and share Him and His love. I’ve wondered how He would work it out, and even begged Him to bring them to my door. I’m so thankful He does that over and over again. Whether it’s to take a meal to someone who really needs a blessing, or drop a flower off on a grieving friend’s doorstep, or an encouraging note in someone’s mailbox, online or off, or encourage and pray for someone who needs to spill their heart, every little opportunity is such a blessing from the Lord! An extra special blessing last month was to have a very dear friend right here in our home for a week during her recovery from a motorcycle accident. We surely do miss her … if you’re reading this, Grace, I love you and miss you so much. I pray God’s blessings on your life today. Please take care of yourself, and may you find healing in every way. You are precious in God’s eyes, and mine, too!!<\/p>\n
