New Year

 

Today's Bible verse often varies by source, but popular choices for January 16, 2026, include Zephaniah 3:17 (God's joy and quiet love) or verses from the daily readings like Mark 2:1-12 (Jesus' authority to forgive sins) or 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (Love's patient nature). Many translations emphasize themes of God's presence, love, and strength, like "Fear thou not; for I am with thee" (Isaiah 41:10). 

Where has time gone? How can it already be 1/2 thru January?  

In November I met with my new cardiologist, I really like him,  heis very thorough, and seems to care what is going on.

Dr ordered EEG and cardiac MRI went thru this test, praise the Lord my heart looks fantastic.   Further testing including today a cardiac nuclear stress test. I just received the test results ....

The most wonderful news ever!!  Praise the LORD my heart is healthy and no sign of  any blockages or abnormalities, regular or under stress.  I had a heart attack back in 2019, and was told I had CHF Congestive heart Failure, this Dr, has not found any indication.

Thank you Jesus for the healing power that you have given to me and the miracle that has happened.

• Jeremiah 33:3: "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know". This verse emphasizes that God is available and wants to communicate with you.

This is one of my favorite verses:   I call it GODS telephone line

Today, I am thankful not to have to be outside it is 37 feels like 20 burr.    I am also thankful that I finished my thankful month, yes I got behind but I got it done.

What are you thankful for today?

How is the weather where you are?

Saturday 112925

 

• Titus 2:14: Jesus "gave Himself for us"—not only to redeem us, but to form us into a "people zealous for good works".

Today I am thankful for HEAT, this morning it was 57 by time I went to town to get propane and groceries the temp had dropped 15* in an hour and half.  The heat sure felt nice, first time this year of having to turn it on.
