It is now 6:26 and I have been up since about 4 am. What the Lord showed me between 4-6 am was priceless. In this moment, praying for a Texas Brother and one in Arizona. Praying for all who disagree on The Bible to approach it with Godly and healthy discourse The Lord expects us to wrestle with our faith. As we mature, we gotta get “in the ring” of truth.

My daughter adopted a sweet gray kitten and named him Anubis roughly two years ago. He was her “Noob” and they have probably a dozen nicknames for him.

Last year, they learned Anubis had kidney issues and feline leukemia. It progressively worsened. Last week, she took him to an oncologist and they as told her had maybe a month to live.

For days, we have cried and talked through various details. Ultimately, I went to her this morning and was able to hold her hand. The mobile vet, Allison, was quite possibly the answer to what I prayed on the way this morning. Thank you, Lord, for making the entire process beautiful and encouraging, despite all the tears. Thank you for redemption at the cross, through your precious son. May those tears cleanse our souls, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

I spoke truth to my daughter in words she could hear. God willing, she will learn those words come from His Word. She has seen the changes in her mama the past few years. She knows why I count it all joy.

The details may be written later, but I needed to honor what God did for us this morning.

I thank God, again, for the five plus hours I was able to comfort and serve my daughter and her boyfriend. Beyond grateful for the healthy, loving relationships I am blessed to enjoy with my children.

Grateful Sarah could come cover the store today. Thank you, Lord, for removing the obstacle for us.

The shop struggled greatly before I arrived at 2:20.

First customer was trying to get in just as I pulled up. I had called Sarah and told her I was less than five minutes away if she needed to go pick up her kiddos. He was thrilled to see me pull in the parking lot. I am forgetting his name in the moment, but God knows every hair on his head. 💜✝️💜

Almost immediately after, Miss Pat visited. Oh, how I love picturing her being the adopted granny to the second graders. She is simply sweeter than honey. And, she knows how much I love Jesus. It was the perfect visit. Her purchases doubled the sales for the entire day at that time.

Bodacious Britney shared her Christian counseling sessions and the way God is moving in her journey to motherhood. When she told me her mom and lived with them the entire five years of their marriage, my heart hurt for them. It actually gave context to some issues they were experiencing.

Then, Britney told me the other day, her mom approached her and said it was time to return to NC. I praised God for removing the obstacle and she praised with me.

Tony, his daughter and granddaughter also visited the shop. It’s always good to see people who bolster our faith and build us up.

Unless God brings someone else in that He wants me to document, I am going to spend the remainder of tonight with Jesus. I need a fill up and The Holy Spirit is hungry for scrolls💜✝️💜
