Affection

Affection is a word that is hard to pin down.  A good example is our house cat  or any animal.  They like to be petted.  But I guess people are alot like that too.  We need affection because if we don't get it things just don't go right.  But what does affection do?  And without it how does it affect us and why.  Can we lose affection and jwhy.  Does anybody have the answers.

The hot weather has arrived.  Went to church in the little town of Fairview.  There were about 30 or so people there.  The visiting preacher was from Corning New York.  His wife was there also and he said a neat thing about her.  He said she was his best friend and you could tell he really meant it.  Who is a best friend?  We have probably had best friends all of our lives but is it your spouse.  I think that is very special.  We can probably think of married couples who are not friends with each other.  How can we call Jesus out friend and not  be friendly with our spouse.  Of course how can you be friends with some one you don't like.  We have found out recently that politics makes strange bed fellows but that is politics.  Just get out and vote.

I was told today that I haven't blogged lately.  Well I broke my hand and it hurts.  I listened to a radio perogre this morning on God's promises.  You know that all his promises have come true.  Boy I sure can't say that about my promises.  You know it would be better if we never made any promises.  But we couldn't do that. 

Today I got 100 feet of 4 inch drain hose for my  back yard project.  I can't install it until my hand gets better.  It 's part of the same project that broke my hand.

Today we went to a church in a small rural town in rural western Pennsylvania.  We drove 30 miles and did not encounter another vehicle.  Flowers, newly plowed farm land, and cows were pleantiful and inspiring.  It is good to attend small country churches.  Some times we find ourselves in situations where others think you are not handling the situation as you should, but you know differently.  In times like that you can experence lonelyness that is hard to handle.  Then we are comferted by the Lord.  He can and will give us the hug when we need it.  We can always count on his promises.  Don't see how people who don't know the Lord survive.  It is good to visit a small country church where people welcome you without knowing you.
