On...

I feel I want to let you know here on Life with Lynnie (LwL) about what I've done.  And, what I didn't do.

Last Thursday, I was feeling so worn out.  I had done everything physically that I thought I could do.  Only, it was worse on me, than I thought it would be.

In the late afternoon, I went to my Chiropractor's office, and had my chiropractic care/treatment.  For this, I was truly happy.  Thank you, Dr. Gemel!  Thank You, Lord!

Feeling that I truly needed to rest, I drove home.  Then, I relaxed for the evening.  And, slept well.

However, in the morning, when I awoke, I realized that I had missed the meeting with Injured Workers group.  :'( 

Sigh... 

I must admit, I felt badly.

Knowing that on Friday, I still wasn't feeling great, I did what I felt I needed to do.  But, then in the evening, I met with some fellow Christians.

We met at McDonald's in downtown Windsor, Ontario, Canada.  The city where we live.

The reason for meeting there, was because we were all going to go out and give hats, gloves, socks, food, etc. to those who were homeless.

However, just as before, I didn't feel well.  No, it's not that I'm sick.  I was still hurting badly, physically.

So, instead of going with those fellow Christians, I gave them the items I brought with me.  They took them, and gave a lot to those who they found who were homeless.  There was still some left over, that will be given out another time, shortly.

For this, I was truly thankful!

On SONday, I did the same thing.  I brought with me, items that I had packaged up, and brought them to the worship service I mentioned yesterday.

I praise God that some people who were homeless, attended that worship service.  Plus, some people who were not well off, were there.  Including some people who were being supported by the local mission.

There were enough things, that just as with my fellow Christians from Friday evening, there was still enough items to be given out, in the near future.

I've focused mostly upon my Lord, who helps me, always.  Every day, He helps me even as I am greatly hurting, physically.

Again, all I can say is that for this, I am truly thankful.

After all, I haven't been focusing much about things happening to me, here on earth.  I've been focusing on the need of others.

Thinking of this, made me think of Colossians 3:2, "Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth."

Amen!  We need to set our affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 

We need to focus on things God would want us to do.

Just as I've found myself doing lately.  Even though I am feeling physically, worse.

Knowing that He's helped me, I'm thankful.  And, always will be.

Thank You, Lord!


Until next time...
