Jack’s Winning Words 7/9/21

“To not have any hope is where things start to get really bleak.  Things are possible.  The impossible can be possible.”  (Sarah Paulson)  In Sunday School we’d sing…”Only believe; only believe.  All things are possible.  Only believe.”  Upon becoming an adult, I’ve learned that some things are impossible (like the NYT Sunday Crossword Puzzle).  Seriously, we’ve all probably faced “impossible” life situations: medical, relationship, addiction.  Sunday Schools songs may not cure the impossible, but they can lead us to trust God and to pray resolutely: “Thy will de done…on earth!”  ;-)  Jack 


FROM BLAZING OAKS:  I repeat Eleanor Roosevelt:" Hope is the most important word in the English language."  Agreed!  Hope just seems to be within us, even in the seemingly hopeless times, doesn't i t?  I HOPE I weather this long car trip, starting tomorrow to Yellowstone Park, Mt. Rushmore, and on to Lake Tahoe, CA in stable health!!! A prayer wouldn't wouldn't hurt, if you have time, dear friend! :-)  These were excellent winning words, today!!===JACK:  I always have time to offer a prayer....and God doesn't seem to get tired of listening to me.
