Elfrida, Arizona
Roses aren't out yet, it's in a cold snap now here in Arizona ... It's 49F degrees here today and it should get up to 69F by the end of the week. It's raining today, but the Weaping Willows are starting to burst out on the branches. No place is perfect to live at; this side of heaven. But for now, it's nice to not be shoveling snow... Can still have the sunshine of God's love in my heart... That's the sunshine that counts.... Prayers for all of you going through these harsh weather happenings.... spring is only 38 days away... yeah....

Here is a neat few paragraphs that encouraged me this morning: Hope it does the same for you..
"All who have chosen God's service are to rest in His care. Christ pointed to the birds flying in the heavens, to the flowers of the field, and bade His hearers consider these objects of God's creation. “Are not ye of much more value than they?” He said. Matthew 6:26, R. V. The measure of divine attention bestowed on any object is proportionate to its rank in the scale of being. The little brown sparrow is watched over by Providence. The flowers of the field, the grass that carpets the earth, share the notice and care of our heavenly Father. The great Master Artist has taken thought for the lilies, making them so beautiful that they outshine the glory of Solomon. How much more does He care for man, who is the image and glory of God. He longs to see His children reveal a character after His similitude. As the sunbeam imparts to the flowers their varied and delicate tints, so does God impart to the soul the beauty of His own character.
All who choose Christ's kingdom of love and righteousness and peace, making its interest paramount to all other, are linked to the world above, and every blessing needed for this life is theirs. In the book of God's providence, the volume of life, we are each given a page. That page contains every particular of our history; even the hairs of the head are numbered. God's children are never absent from His mind.
“Be not therefore anxious for the morrow.” Matthew 6:34, R. V. We are to follow Christ day by day. God does not bestow help for tomorrow. He does not give His children all the directions for their life journey at once, lest they should become confused. He tells them just as much as they can remember and perform. The strength and wisdom imparted are for the present emergency. “If any of you lack wisdom,”—for today,—“let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” James 1:5.
From the Book "The Desire of Ages-
Rest in God's love!! He cares for you wherever you are in this stage of your life, hugs, jan
