The other day, there were verses from a song that all of a sudden “ popped” into my mind, and sometimes when that happens the song verses  keep coming into your thoughts all that day! The song verses were :

“In your time, in your time

You make all things beautiful

In your time 

Lord my life to you I bring

May each song I have to sing

Be to you a lovely thing

In your time” 

And at the same time, I kept thinking about pretty butterflies that are all sorts of lovely colors! Our Loving Lord’s love for us is like all the pretty colours of a butterfly! The variety of  colours reflect all the different parts and times  of life! His love endures for us through our sad times, happy  times, painful times, excited times, and one day  when there is a “New Heaven and Earth” all things will be completely beautiful! I like to imagine that  there will be lots and  lots of pretty butterflies flying around!

 Every so often we receive a newsletter email from Nestles which contains recipes to cook. Of course,  they always contain Nestle brand products! I had a little laugh to myself last Friday when we received  their newsletter at 5 p.m., just the right for families to then plan to cook the recipes over the weekend, but first go to the supermarket and buy the Nestles brand ingredients! The recipes were for  “ Rich Flourless Chocolate cake”, “ Easy ChocolarexBanana Cake” and “ Rich Caramel Mudcake”! They all look and sound very rich and chocolatey! 

        The main “ ingredient” in life is love! Love from our Loving Lord, our family and our friends  mixes through our days, and helps us  to cope with whatever the day or our life is holding. Just like a very rich chocolatey cake, our lives are filled with immense richness when we remember that we are very loved ❤️💗

 It is great that the Myers Christmas windows are still going to take place this year, even though there is the current virus situation! The display was cancelled but now they are back as there has been discussions of how to do them in a safe way! I can remember going to see  them after doing my VCE  year 12 exam at the Royal Showgrounds ! I was doing my year 12 by correspondence but had to do my exams there. Mum and I caught a train from our local rail station  to the Showgrounds so that  I could sit the exam, then we caught a tram to take us to the City to meet up with Dad who was working at the Bank in the City. We all then went home together on the train! It was fun and enjoyable to look at the Myers Christmas Windows, especially after the stress of an English Literature exam! 

         It is lovely to see and feel the warmth of sunshine coming through a window! It makes you feel encouraged and blessed inside! Our Loving Lord’s love is just like that! It is like the sun brings a big glass window from our Lord each morning and through the window comes the beautiful rays of our Lord’s deep and eternal for us! May His rays of love feel you with warmth today 

The mail delivery seems to be very “ up the pole” at the moment! When you post a letter or mail, you don’t really know how long it will take to get to the destination...or even if it will arrive at  all! ( It usually does though!) 

    In all the uncertainty that life brings where we are unsure  of what the day will hold, and what will happen next, may we be hugely grateful and richly encouraged that our Loving Lord and and our Heaven Father is watching over us, knows the present and the future, and will one day welcome us with wide open arms and is preparing a beautiful new home for us❤️
