Happy Monday, Friends!
I almost posted over the weekend, and I was so busy taking down Christmas and playing around with Valentine's Day and winter vignettes that I forgot. The reason I wanted to post is because I've heard from several of y'all and several of my local friends who have COVID, the flu, and other viruses. Although Omicron doesn't seem to be as deadly as other variants, it's very contagious. I want my friends to feel better, so I've been praying Psalm 103 for everyone. God doesn't want us to be sick: he heals!
Praise the Lord, my soul;all my inmost being, praise his holy name.Praise the Lord, my soul,and forget not all his benefits—who forgives all your sinsand heals all your diseases...Psalm 103:1-3
Stay healthy, Friends, and either email me or leave a comment for any other prayer requests.
Have a great week! Enjoy your guided journaling this week: it's a tough one for me! Yikes!
Until next time...
Blessings!

Happy Friday, Friends! God has a sense of humor, doesn't he! Here we are, in the midst of Omicron, and we're talking about greeting each other with hugs and kisses! He knew that we'd be reading this guided journaling page this week, LOL! Shelley was quarantined because so many of her coworkers have it, and I know of several people who have it now.
So here is this week's writing prompt:
Do you typically greet someone with a handshake, hug, or high five? How does it feel to be greeted by others in this way?
I'm definitely a hugger, so I tend to hug people I know well when greeting them. At church, during the exchanging of the peace, I tend to shake hands unless I know someone well. Between the exchanging of the peace and holy communion, it will be months before I can go back to church in person, unfortunately! I watch it on YouTube.
What about you??? I bet you Midwesterners are big huggers.
Prayer requests? I am feeling pretty well, and I know it's because of prayer and God's goodness and mercy towards me. Thanks for praying, y'all!
Until next time...
Blessings!

I loved the photo in the new section of the book...
I had to share it here on the blog!
Happy Monday Morning, Friends!
I thought the introduction about greeting fellow believers with a "holy kiss" fascinating. I can remember when I first visited my husband in his hometown of New Orleans, I was surprised how almost everyone who met me kissed me on the cheek!
I guess we aren't getting that up close and personal during the cold and flu season, but I'm still interested to read about how greetings lead to happiness.
Have a blessed week!
Prayer requests?
Until next time...
Blessings!
