Good morning, Father! THANK YOU for the AMAZING amount of progress yesterday! THANK YOU for helping me climb right up and over some pretty major setbacks — like finding out that I can NOT create my newsletter in any of the Adobe applications and upload it to Mailchimp — without having to pay an extra $30/month that I can NOT afford! Thank you for not letting that get me down, as I barely even missed a beat after designing for an hour or two in first Photoshop then InDesign — THEN finding out I cannot use either version of my own designs but HAVE TO use Mailchimp‘s highly inferior program to create the actual newsletter itself. I don’t REALLY even feel disappointed or discouraged, and I don’t really even consider it a loss, as I have been able to use wording from my Photoshop design and some fun graphics I created in the InDesign version. AND now I have the template (the “skeleton”) for the newsletter all ready to use in Mailchimp… AND I went way far above and beyond JUST getting the template ready yesterday, as I also designed a whole new system for Patreon, even allowing new MEMBER Patrons to pay $10/month toward Lifetime Membership AND get a $10/month voucher in the Printables Shop AND get exclusive customizables each month! WOOT! I am excited about these awesome, amazing changes and all the fun CUBBYHOLES I have created for myself to happily fill, each month to come! Lord, I thank you for leading me so faithfully and speedily forward yesterday, I thank you for the renewed HOPE you have given me, and I ask you to help me be faithful to you and to your people THIS day, in my work and in my interactions with other people and with your creation. THANK YOU for all the birds that visit my little area outside my window each day, too — and the two squirrels yesterday morning! :D
Hooray! First newsletter is ready to go! :D
Matthew 7:21-29 ERV
“Not everyone who calls me Lord will enter God’s kingdom. The only people who will enter are those who do what my Father in heaven wants.  On that last Day many will call me Lord. They will say, ‘Lord, Lord, by the power of your name we spoke for God. And by your name we forced out demons and did many miracles.’  Then I will tell those people clearly, ‘Get away from me, you people who do wrong. I never knew you.’  “Whoever hears these teachings of mine and obeys them is like a wise man who built his house on rock.  It rained hard, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house. But it did not fall because it was built on rock.  “Whoever hears these teachings of mine and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.  It rained hard, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house. And it fell with a loud crash.”  When Jesus finished speaking, the people were amazed at his teaching.  He did not teach like their teachers of the law. He taught like someone who has authority. 
Lord, I would be a great fool if I honestly believed that it is ME who has been able to create good things. Instead, it is an absolute delight to me to create WITH YOU — the Creator whom I have known and loved since I was a small three-and-four-year-old child, singing songs to “He who OWNS all this” while I recovered from the day’s abuse by sitting outside on the ground, surrounded by bird song, wind, and sooooo many plants and insects! That is why I have proudly named my Patreon account “creating with the Creator“. It may not be “politically correct” or even “professional” but it is ME, and I am proud to serve you as faithfully and as openly as I possibly can, Lord Jesus. I ask you to bless my efforts and let them bear fruit. Help me to eventually climb up out of poverty and at least make enough that I can get a set of wheels for myself and my Mate, and stop depending on our friends and their trucks that my Mate keeps fixing, over and over as new things break down. I truly and happily am grateful for our friends and their mercy upon us, allowing us to accompany them into town when they go so that we can get our water and groceries. I thank you for my dear friend who is the FIRST woman whom I have felt absolutely comfortable with (besides my daughter and ONE of my sisters). Please help me as I leave this little prayer blog and my verbal rambling behind, and stride forward in another day of creating with the Creator. Lead on, faithful Shepherd! :D

I have used this little pic to represent my prayer blog since February 2017.  It’s a good mix of things that are ME: nature, worship, surrendering self… plus a solid dose of modernity and technology, as I believe this little box-human is one of the Amazon-style graphics that were popular at the time that I found it.  Not sure who created this pic, but I do believe I found it on Pixabay, where NO attribution or credit is needed.  However, I am quite willing to be corrected if I am mistaken.  😉  🙂  😄 :O>
