_My Thoughts _ ALERT__ALERT___ALERT___

On this first day of November we have only 60 more days in 2026.

I was  blessed to step outside this morning into the fresh air and sunshine.

This is my WORLD, living in western Pennsylvania where I make art, write books, and take care of my precious cats. This weekend, my son, R. Andrew Lambert (Author and Educator) popped in for a surprise visit yesterday. I love being a mom, grandma, and great grandma and I love the precious moments that make my days..

Each morning I take fresh food and water outside for  Miss Miranda.

She is a black feral cat who prefers to be outside, where she can go  hunting in the woods and around the property.  She lived in our home for the first five years after we captured her and brought her inside to be with the other cats.  But, she was never happy in the house and when she saw her opportunity to get back outside, she escaped.  That was a year ago!  Since that time, she has refused to come back inside.

We have a couple of  outdoor shelters and put them at each end of the porch, so she can go in and out of them as she likes, and she can be beneath the deep and long wrap-around porch as much as she likes, too. After five years of being in the house, she decided to sit on my lap one day!  Since that time, she will come to me every time I am outside, and she will sit on my lap on the porch every day as  we are still having mild weather.  I also open the garage door for her to come and go as she pleases.

This week, a song kept coming to my mind, and I would begin to sing it out loud.  I just stop what I am doing, and I listen to the song playing in my spirit, and I begin to sing along. “This is my Father’s World.”

I woke up this morning, greeted  Jesus, our Father, God, and the Holy Spirit.

This is intentional. I  begin singing praises  to God, and worship Him as I open my eyes to each  new day. I begin my day with Jesus, He guides  my day and reminds me that this truly is “my Father’s world, and He is with me. I  hope that you have also found Jesus and asked Him to be with you today, too. Simply ask him into your heart, confess your sins, and ask Him to cleanse you from them today.   This truly is Our Father’s WORLD,  and life changes forever when we turn, to follow Him.

Perhaps you can  sing this song today, too, as you stop to praise the Living Lamb of God.

This is my Father’s world,

And to my listening ears

All nature sings, and round me rings

The music of the spheres.

This is my Father’s world:

I rest me in the thought

Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas–

His hand the wonders wrought.

2 This is my Father’s world:

The birds their carols raise,

The morning light, the lily white,

Declare their Maker’s praise.

This is my Father’s world:

He shines in all that’s fair;

In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,

He speaks to me everywhere.

3 This is my Father’s world:

O let me ne’er forget

That though the wrong seems oft so strong,

God is the Ruler yet.

This is my Father’s world:

Why should my heart be sad?

The Lord is King: let the heavens ring!

God reigns; let earth be glad!

_

This song was written by a remarkable man,

Maltbie Davenport  Babcock, 1901

_Second Thought

If you are new to my blog,  check out some recent articles of interest.

Check out last week’s BLESSING_ Merry – Go – Round Click Here!

I have 5 published books available on Amazon and at all retail booksellers.

__Scripture

Psalm #1:  in the Christian Bible.

You can begin Here.

_Daily Action Plan

1_Read Psalms 1 every day this week. It’s very short, and you can read it over and over again, each day this week.  Expect something miraculous  to begin as you seek out God’s voice in this Psalm.

2_As you read this psalm, listen to discern  the voice of God. In this age that we are living in, we must seek to have discernment so that we understand what is happening here and now, all around us, every day.  Seek God, as you read Psalms 1, this week. /be open to DISCERN, in your spirit.

3_God always SPEAKS to us as we read the BIBLE.  Pay attention, be still, and listen.  What are you beginning to DISCERN this week?

4_Choose one verse to memorize this week.  It is important to put God’s WORD into our spirit and our memory.  You will be surprised how this verse you memorized will speak to you in the future.  What have you discerned this week as you meditate on Psalms 1?

 

I chose to memorize Psalm 1:6

For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
    but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.

It is always a wonderful surprise when a very thoughtful person reads one of my books, and then sends me a review that warms my heart and gives me credit for creating a book he found to be so inspiring.  I deeply appreciate such a professional and thoughtful gift. 

Stellar reviews of our books are always a blessing. If you have purchased any of my books, I thank you!

Lynda says,

My passions in academia are poetry and fine art.  I author books and I create fine art in several mediums – Painting  and  Fiber Art.

I Found INSPIRATION in Unexpected changes:

I discovered a new life after sudden sight loss in the fall of 2007.

. For the next two years, I learned to see the world and my place in it in an entirely new way.  I completed training for Personal Adjustment to Blindness, It took two years of training and lots of challenging work to learn to read and write using adaptive technologies for the blind.  Ad the months went by, God was showing me that my creative life would continue,, but in some new ways.

I began to write Divinely inspired life lessons

New experiences and God-directed Opportunities

New DISCOVERIES  to  share with the world

A NEW SEASON on the Narrow Path with Jesus.

At this time, I have six published books!

I am working on my 7th book currently and it will be an anthology of poetry that will be a collection of my poems from 1985 to the present.  The book  will be titled:
