Autumn Leaves

I love Fall! Finally, those long, hot West Texas days are more bearable! Fall is my favorite season and here's why: cool mornings, cool evenings, beautiful West Texas sunsets, leaves, pumpkins, Indian corn, candy corn, delicious soup and stews, baking breads and pies, my birthday, football, ACU band playing at noon out my back door, sweaters and the mere fact that Summer is over! Actually, I typically really enjoy every season and am usually ready for the next to come along. But, there is something about Fall that just embraces me! Perhaps, I live in the wrong part of the country though. Maybe someday, I can take in a New England Fall and the leaves changing colors! It's a LONG drive though. I better get started!

Doing Good

I cannot ever remember doing anything out of meanness. I guess I've just never been turned that way. That does not mean that I have always done everything right though. It's just that my intention has never been one to do harm. And yet, I seem to keep doing things that seem wrong to those that I love and respect the most. So, am I suppose to not do what I think is right because it might be wrong? I'm praying for God's wisdom and for Him to give me discernment in handling situations. I know that is the right thing to do.

Romans 7:21 "When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law: but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God-through Jesus Christ our Lord!
