What did you thank God
for this morning when you
woke up. I thanked him for
my eyes that I could see the
sun shine then for no pain in
this old back of mine then
for no bad news and a cup
of coffee to get the day work
started.
As I check the report on
the farmers it shows the cot-
ton made much better than
thought for that takes us back
to the old saying man plant
and God give the increase
have you heard that too.
The Galilee Church fam-
ily was happy to have Bro. &
Sis Wiley home and Staffeny
too. Lets keep Staffeny on
the special prayer list, as
you check the church bulle-
tin, visit your neighbors and
friend to see if they are well.
As I check my sick list
I have Jimmie Lang, Ann
Hays, Betty Peirce, Martha
Morriel and Staffeny Wiley.
Our sympathy is extend-
ed to all breaved families.
If you were a special
guest I’m sure you were
bless. I was a special guest at
Mt. Pleasant Church in Lo-
renzo, Tx, it was good to see
old friends, but there were
lots of faces missing.
Katherine Lawson and I
went to check on Martha, we
found her feeling better. Lets
check on the sick by phone,
card or a short visit.
These are our Birthday
people Dink Edinburgh, Jeff
Kock, Kandace Adams Ar-
rott, Kelsey Wimmer Corn-
wall, Caden Cargile 2-5-17;
Jimmie Lang Sr., Edward
Lang 2-6-17; Joe Hargrove,
Triny Rodriguez 2-7-17;
McKenzie Arrott, Traci Ham
Fowler 2-9-17; Koby Hous-
ton, Lincoln Luna 2-11-17.
Bill & Bettye Odom will cel-
ebrate their anniversary of
marriage 2-8-17. These days
are special days to celebrate
so count your many bless-
ings and see what God has
done in your life.
I’m reading health mag-
azines, you read all kind
of stuff like you can clean
out your artries by chang-
ing toilet paper. Our body
absorbs chemical known as
bisphemol by using every-
day things like paper tow-
els, napkins, credit cards re-
ceipts, toilet paper. It seems
like everything we eat or
use is harmful in some way
wouldn’t you say.
Blumper or Blurper
was staying up late reading
a book my great grandson
Baby J. ask to read so we
can discuss the faith of the
young girl who wrote the
story. I have all ready been
convinced that is you believe
and trust in God for what you
need it will come to pass.
We thank you Lord for
peace when the day is done
because each day come bear-
ing it’s own gifts.
Don’t forget to get some
one a Valentine.
Happy Valentine!
