Cheery Chats To You Today

I hope you have had a blessed and joyful week in the Lord.  Read on to see what I've been up to, to check out some blog posts and to find a few of my favorite finds.

Dear {{ subscriber.firstName | default('') }}.

I've been a grandma a lot this past week.  My daughter and son in law were gone for a few days so we had their five children for a couple nights.  

My son and his daughter are on a mission trip to Kosrae so I gave his wife a break and kept their other four children on the same day I had the other five.  Things were hopping around here that day, but it was lots of fun. And in case you don't know anything about Kosrae, it is an island in Federated States of Micronesia.  Sort of strange that he flew into tomorrow and when he returns he will fly into yesterday.  Weird huh?

My husband and I have been spending some time at a couple of the nursing homes ministering to people and sharing God's Word. At one of them we are actually holding a church service on Sunday morning.  We still have time to head to our own place of worship when it is over.  I took some of my fall blessing cards and passed them along.(Did you get yours?)  The people enjoy receiving any little things.  Many of them don't get any visitors at all.  

We're planning a trip soon to New England.  My oldest sister is now in a nursing home herself (so hard to believe!) This may be the last time I see her on earth.  So glad my family will spend eternity together.  It's so important to make sure you are ready.

Psalm 23 is a wonderful and well known chapter in the Bible.  I'm glad that Jesus is my Shepherd.  I hope He is yours too.  Read about and reflect upon this passage here.  And here is a free gift for you today.  Psalm 23 wall printable. 

 

My husband and I have been listening to this amazing story.  I love to hear testimonies of God's saving grace such as this. You can still get this free audio book (FIRE ROAD)  til the end of the month from Christian Audio.  

It's not too early to start shopping for Christmas.  Day Spring always has some nice things.

As I realize that this may be the last time on earth I see my sister, I ask myself, Is death beautiful in God's Eyes?

 

Until next time, Blessings from Ellen at Joyful Abundant Life
