Keeping Cool

To protect themselves from the blazing sun people venture out covered from head to foot.

Not I . I carry an umbrella.That 's enough for me.

Here is a girl all cocooned and wearing gloves. Tickles me to see the whole of India

going about dressed like bandits and Bedouins (exaggeration) LOL.

Cooling off at MacDonald 's. People putting in their orders.

A group of college girls having fun.

A young family sharing food together. I couldn' t help noticing they shared small burger (maybe veg) and a few french fries and one coke between them. Eating out is not cheap and everyone likes to do it once in a while.

I asked the little girl what her name was. Her name is Pari (Purry) which means fairy.

She looked like a little fairy. She was dressed in breezy summer clothes so cute.

Milka and Abner having ice cream.

Abner and an ice lolly in the children' s park.

CONFESSION

Please don 't misunderstand me but being a single, disabled, unemployed woman I sometimes feel very weak, anaemic,insecure and vulnerable. I need to strengthen my feeble knees as the Bible says. I need to grasp the Vine (Jesus) with whatever strength I have.

I am thinking of Romans 7

18I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[c] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22For in my inner being I delight in God's law; 23but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. 24What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.

But I will go on to Romans 8 and grasp at the rays of hope and promise.

12Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation—but it is not to the sinful nature, to live according to it. 13For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, 14because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. 15For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship.[g] And by him we cry, "Abba,[h] Father." 16The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. 17Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
Future Glory 18I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. 20For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21that[i] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

Oh the joy of sweet deliverance...liberation!

I am deeply indebted to my family, friends, saints of God for your prayers and support.

Without you I would be like a bowl of runny Jello.
