Wonderful evening at the Cove. We saw at least 23 bears and only made 1 loop! I was finally able to meet a long time Facebook friendJake Whiteside in person! So it was a great time.

As day dawns on a New Year! We start fresh this year so the Lord has impressed upon me to make this the year of INTENTION for me. To not just read my Bible but to use it intentionally to guide me in everything I do. To be intentional in sharing His word. To be intentional with my health, my diet, keeping my home and to intentionally rest when I need to. We have some new ventures helping with a Thrift store, I have two choir preformances ahead in a mass choir from our area churches. What do you see ahead for yourself? I desire to know Him and you all better!
Picture is one I took in Cades Cove in Aug 2024.

Eph 5:15-17
15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise,
16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.

Went to beautiful Bald River Falls yesterday with a group of our Seniors yesterday from our church. I loved the new viewing platform. Much safer for everyone.
