So Much for What Thought Did!

 So Much for What Thought Did!

 

Got up this morning and let the critters out. Went into the living room and the heater in there would not come on. Go figure. Said a couple of words inside my head and decided to go over to Sutherlands to get another electric heater. Had my first cup of coffee for the day—mighty tasty. But the heater that got into my basket did not say if it was 110 or 220, so the checker asked a young man to look at it. It was for butane. Duh. He walked away saying that they had about sold out of any electric heaters. Wisdom should have called ahead, right? Lowe’s heating and cooling department would not even answer the phone. Guess they were tired of saying that they did not have anything.

 

Went on down the road to United on SW Pkwy and Kemp to get some more chickens at 77 cents per pound. They were out and would not get any more until Monday. Bought a few heads of cabbage and a box of popcorn to pop. Cheapest run to the store that has ever been made in my life!! Came inside after putting the truck away and decided to mess with that heater ONE more time. Plugged it in and it worked!! Not sure why it had sat there all night and decided not to work first thing this morning. But can just be thankful that it works now!

 

My friend Michelle Malay called last night to let me know she would be here Tuesday as she has a doctor’s appointment and a hair cut scheduled. Will be sending eggs home with her. Meanwhile, hoping that Maggie comes for eggs before the wet stuff starts. And no, I don’t deliver. Maggie said that they are hoping to get rid of all the oxygen equipment for David by Monday. Let’s face it, pneumonia is nobodies’ friend. That is what John Rhoads ended up with while his wife had covid! What a mess for them. They both serve at the pancake breakfast for the Kiwanas, but not sure they will be able to this time. Think Mary is the president of the thing this year.

 

Read more in the study of Revelation. Seems the two witnesses are two God knows very well: Enoch and Elijah were both “translated” and never saw death. They were the prophets of judgment as well. And the judgment is what comes after their time on earth is finished and they are killed and then resurrected to be seen by all of earth. Never would have thought about the fact that everyone on earth can see what is happening at one place on earth simply through the type of information transmittal that we have today in TV and live broadcasts. But these two will be slain because they are so hated by mankind, so their resurrection is going to blow away the folks who hate them so much. The damage the two witnesses can do is much like what Elijah was able to do before—withholding the rain or making the seas into blood. At least the church will already have been taken up from the earth before all this happens. This book certainly makes some things more understandable.

 

Had soup for breakfast and now soup for supper. Good thing soup is one of my favorite foods. The dogs have already been fed, so they are not even watching me eat for once! They have been busy watching the kids across the street move into Jerry’s house. Hope their water finally thawed out. Shona and Albert finally have everything working in their house. Now if my lines to the washer would just thaw!!

 

Praise God that He makes promises to us to keep us in His way. Let us rejoice that He keeps his promises!

 

Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
