Guten Tag,Well, today is another beautiful day in my German neighborhood. Yesterday when I went over to get fresh brochen my dear friend gave me a couple of extra cheese pizza pretzels...just what I needed. I said, "you are sweetheart and I am certainly going to miss you when I am gone, you have certainly been a blessing to me." She smiled and I swear she had tears in her glistening eyes. Friends, I hear God whispering in my ear more and more.....be a LIGHT and love as I first loved you! This really is harder than it sounds and I am seeing it more and more. Thinking I am so full of love but it is easy to love the lovable but I know I have also been called to love the unlovable and that is the hard part but I am trying, I really, really am....more Grace dear Lord, more Grace.
The week-end is almost upon us and I do hope it does not rain all week-end but it probably will, ha! Have a couple of fun things to do IF my sinuses calm down but just plain uncomfortable at the moment. Thankfully it is JUST sinus and nothing worse...amen. Yesterday we found a dear friend was hospitalized after many many days 0f fever and flu-like symptoms now they have found out she has pneumonia. This flu seems to really like children and young adults...please, please take care of yourselves. I was reading and article about this flu and people who are older, like "moi" they believe have built up immunities, another good thing about growing older, that is protecting us! I sure hope so.
I woke up this morning found that our President had signed the "defense/hate crimes" bill now we shall see how this will REALLY affect our lives. We are told it will be good for all of us...not to good if the pastor cannot speak the Truth that the Lord has called him to speak. We live in some very, very interesting times. That is enough you all know how I feel about this, ha!
I am missing TV! I am so wanting my Survivor, Amazing Race and NCIS and Top Chef....but to no avail. Was trying to watch Dancing With the Stars on YouTube yesterday and it would not allow me...that was a first. I think Kelly Osborne is just adorable....she has a very tender heart and I sense dealing with alot of pain and shame from some of her bad choices but she seems to be on top right now and I must say I pray for her! Must admit I am doing just fine without TV...must say there is really nothing on but junk...same here in Germany. They LOVE travel shows and must have everyone of our obscene reality shows dubbed for their viewing!! It is terrible. I asked Lennie, "why does everyone want to emulate the worse of America," and He said, "I do not think it is about America it is about who most of mankind, at this moment in time, is looking to for guidance!" I think he is right! This is really a very dysfunctional world right now because we ALL lack obedience to the truth. Which in turns brings out the worse in mankind....reminds me of the times before Sodom and Gommorah were destroyed. We must NOT stop praying for this country and world!! We have been commanded to do so.
The kids are out of school this week so the neighborhood has been really quiet..i.e. my bus stop out my kitchen window. They are celebrating the Wall coming down, All Hallowed Eve and Reformation Day.....this week...so they let the kids out of school. Just for your info, German's now celebrate Halloween big time and they even trick or treat! Their favorite to dress up as is a pumpkin or a witch....and of course vampires! Next week, if it is like when we lived here before, the Christmas trees will go up in houses and decorations will start being seen. I am serious. And the day after Christmas every thing will be gone. But until the day after Christmas we are in for a big celebration with the Christmas markets, parades, etc...
Really did not say much today. I am off for a walk. It is so beautiful I think I will take a walk to the park and sit and enjoy the smell, the chill and beauty of Autumn this day. I will pick up a cup of coffee on the way and that will make it really enjoyable. God bless and love you all..........
Tschuss,
Debby
