January 15. Twenty-sixth day of winter. Temperatures about the same as yesterday, but wonderful sunshine beaming in through the south windows. Another night with little sleep. Got up around 12:30 for some warm almond milk, a ParaSmart capsule, and a few almonds, but still didn’t get to sleep until after 2:30. As I lay awake, I got to thinking about the symptoms and knew what I would have to do. Back to ParaSmart again. Most of my morning was spent in the kitchen. After breakfast, I cleaned out the blender, putting the rest of the soup into a cup and a jar for my lunch. Then I made almond flavored banana-tofu pudding. Sat down at the computer and rested my legs a while after that. Got the pictures transferred that I couldn’t transfer last night because both cameras had dead batteries. Got the pictures all edited and put into January’s folder. Then back to the kitchen to make this week’s soup—creamy veggie soup with lentils and millet. By the time that was on to cook, it was lunch time so warmed up the rest of last week’s soup and had that for lunch. Then I resized the pictures that I had put into the computer earlier. This afternoon, I sent out all the monthly e-mail updates to our supporting churches, and this evening I sent out the last four which were for individual supporters. Also got journal notes ready for Connie and sent those to her along with pictures. “….Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God am holy.” Leviticus 19:2b Likewise saith the Lord in the New Testament to all His redeemed. “15But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; 16Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.” I Peter 1:15,16 January 16. Twenty-seventh day of winter. Another sub-freezing morning. First thing this morning, I tossed a load of clothes into the washing machine, had morning drinks and started quiet time, put most of the washed clothes into the dryer and hung up a few to air dry, fixed my breakfast (a bowl of fruit and tofu pudding, and a cup of soup), filled a small bottle with water, grabbed my prayer notebook and jacket, and Daddy and I headed off for Forest City. Spent a long time looking through things at Jay’s. Spent quite a while looking everything over, but bought mostly juices and snacks. We did get a few other things too, like frozen veggies and some bacon for Connie. After Jay’s, we went over to WalMart to get raisins, water, yarn, and glue sticks. I also found a nice pair of slippers which I am putting away for the future. After that, we headed home. It was just about noon when we arrived back at the house. After putting everything away, we had lunch, and shortly thereafter, nap. This afternoon and evening, I started making some crocheted snowman necklaces for Christy and worked a bit on the John lesson for Mike. “9And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corners of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleanings of thy harvest. 10And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather every grape of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and stranger: I am the LORD your God.” Leviticus 19:9,10 Throughout the Bible, we find that God has always cared about the poor and desires that His people do the same.
