cold , revival, tomorrow

It is supposed to get down to 25 degrees tonight.  That is cold for the east coast.  I try to kep my heat tued down low in the house and I stay bundled up.  Our last electric bill was 225 dollars.  I do have electric heat and I know wthat uses a lot of current.  But that high of a bill is hard to pay in these hard times with everything going up in the stores and gas on the rise.  So at night I tun the thermosstat down to 55 and the daytime is 60 unless baby is here and then it is at 70.    I hang nearly all my laundry to dry and even in the winter it will dry in one day if the sun shines on them.  Dh and I are trying to combine all trips and the only thing we don't want to have to cut is our church going . 

Josie we had snow at Christmas but that has been all .  I love seeing it come down and I love seeing everything covered in snow for about a day and then I just want it all gone.

Tomorrow I go to help out at a big church near me, they do thins about once a month and I love going out to help.  This time I actually have some clothes from grandson and some from dh and some that is too big for me.  I also have about 15 religious books I want to donate.  LIke I said earlier the economy has hit us pretty bad, Ican't give a lot right now but I can give my time.  There are so many people out there that needs clothes and blankets, and socks and shoes and that is what we will be giving away tomorrow.

Today was anther eating day that left me feelin disappointed in myself.  I probably did not eat over 2000 calories BUT who loses weight on 2000 calories a day?????????Plus I want to change those habits.  I want to get out of the habit of want ing something and getting it.   GRRRRRRRRRRRR


I had to come back and edit

The revival last night was really good.  He did not get to preach, the spirit fell and people were just praying and shouting and kneeling . I love beig in services where the Holy Spirit moves in such a wonderful way.



Sleep well and
God bless

  1. i've been there, Joy, those days where i eat at or pushing 2,000 calories and feeling disappointment. but it doesn't matter how many times you've done that, it's ALL in the past!
    how did helping out at church go? i'm very glad you give your time to that. that's pure religion (James 1:27).
    love you and am praying for you, that it is God's will that he meets ALL your needs!
