Proverbs 16:9
In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps.
Patmos Island, Edward was remembering going there in 1980. He said the cave was very nice and the view was astonishing. Like being on top of the world to see the endless sea and sky touching. Much as it looked when John was climbing the mountain the first time.

† John 13:34
A New Commandment I Give You:
Love one another.
As I have loved you,
Abba,
We give our cares to You.
When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.
Because of Jesus. And he said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy.
Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence
Thank You God, for Your Goodness.
Teaching us to observe all that You have commanded us.
And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age
Jesus is with us
We know this and clearly with expectation - Lift up our cares, our lives. And the ones we love. The People our Father God puts in our lives to last and have harmony. For the healing of Elliott and Dee.
For His Goodness. For the Nation and all the believers.
To bring more Heaven to earth.
Jesus Amen.
♔ Lord Jesus Saves! †
