Thankful Thoughts

orchidee



Tune: Ravenshaw

('Lord thy word abideth')

Luke 17 v.11-19

********

Here return a small praise

Or be great anthems raise

To you Lord, King of Kings

To you creation sings

 

May we not ungrateful

Be, but trusting, faithful

As healed leper returned

To give thanks [he] was concerned

 

But Jesus did say where

Other nine, they who did share?

In the healing, restored

To glorify the Lord

 

In our pleas for mercy

Look on us Lord, us see

And may we return, give

Praise to you who e'er live

        ANGELA HERE - Good afternoon Uncle Steve - Just havin a cup of LADY GREY at the end of a busy day. I look like *Zorro* in my Blue Mask & Blue Gloves - gives my clients a laff but on cant be too careful !

        LORD they word abideth & our footsteps guideth !

        That*s all we need to know to keep us afloat in a Stormy Sea. We have PRAYER to sustain us & Gods Word to guide us - AMEN. Love the acount of the LEPERS. Typical of Human Response to Gods Provision. We all get the Suns Energy - Oxygen - Water - Fertile soil etc & The Flora & Fauna all for FREE in the UK and only 1 in 20 bother to visit Gods House to sing his Praises on the Lords Day - AMEN ! The FOOL has said in his Heart - There is no GOD !

        Please put our Wedding on your PRAYER LIST - Everything is OK at the Moment and nothing is under threat from Aunty Carona. We have 10 Guests coming from SPAIN (Wednesday 8 April) and we are going to SPAIN (Sevilla) for our Honeymoon on Monday 13 April ! Wedding is Saturday 11 April so everything should be OK. We get the keys for our first House on Saturday 21st March ~ Alles ist in Ordnung ~ AMEN.

        Blessings & Joy to You & Fearless Fido !
        Love in the Spirit Angela & Brian ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™
