WORDS, WORDS, WORDS (Day 3 of 6)
(Need to start at the beginning? Day 1)
Practice day!
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Psalm 19:14 ESV
Spend the day watching your words.

Are there situations where it’s more difficult to speak graciously? Easier? Try catching your words before they come out of your mouth. If you blow it, just pause, apologize, and restate.
Practice, practice, practice.

I’d like to thank all those who donated to us in 2024 (giving statements will be out before the end of the month). We are deeply blessed that folks are willing to give to our support.
That said, we did not reach our yearly goal. Not to worry. We have some new income sources, so we will keep our lights on, have food in our fridge, and keep Tilly’s food bowl full.

What that does mean is that we are going to rethink where and how we minister. There will still be some blogging going on (fewer folks are here), but we will likely put more time into audio and video (where people are going). We’re not in any hurry, but you will see some changes in 2025. Prayers and ideas appreciated. 🙂

Thank you so much, Lori for reminding me to keep my words gracious! You are quite a lady, and I wish we could meet in person one day. I enjoy your blogs and appreciate what you do very much! As far as your comments about coming changes in the ministry, you are right. Most of the world is moving to vlogs and podcasts. I am hard of hearing, and have a hard time following videos and podcasts. I am not sure what it involves to get them, but captions are always helpful. I wonder if you have other followers in my position? God’s richest blessings to you and Paul!
Hi, Angie. Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging words. If we go podcast, we will supply a transcript. We’d do captions for YouTube, maybe transcripts.
