Happy New Years 2022 Thoughts

Sunrise from our back patio 
Wishing all my friends a safe, healthy, and blessed New Years 2022 !

Use and practice these words more often in 2022: love, joy, peace, encouragement, gentleness, patience, kindness.

Pray often.

Worship wherever you are.

Read God's word.

Be a friend.

Enjoy family.

Encourage, support, and love your children.

Take care of the temple that God has given you.

Tell your spouse, children, and family that you love them. Directly as in 'I love you and thank God for you being in my life'.

Set attainable and realistic goals for yourself.

2021 Highlights.

We moved into our new house in March and can't thank God enough for blessing us with this opportunity.

We enjoyed spending a lot of time with Ellie (and her parents) this year and look forward to much more in 2022 !

We said goodbye to our four legged daughter Diogy in May and miss her greatly.

We enjoyed hosting Christmas Eve brunch at our house and had a excellent time with Val's family.

I can't thank God enough for my Valerie. Day in and day out her love for me blows me away. God tells me the way I can thank Him is to be a blessing to her everyday - on the good days when it's easy and especially on the bad days when it's not so easy. Val tells me that 'we make a good team'. So very true ! We truly compliment one another. Can't wait to celebrate our fourth wedding anniversary!

I leave you with these scriptures for 2022. Pray they will help you praise God, give you God's peace, and be a blessing to you !

“ ‘ “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.” ’ (Numbers 6:24-26 NIV)

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. (Philippians 4:8 NIV)

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.(1st Corinthians 13:13)
