Praise the Lord that the Holy Spirit can fix phones and computers.  I was SO discouraged yesterday as my issues went from bad to worse.  (those of you who know me well know that i have zero patience when all my electronic devices go whack-a-doodle.......my life is communicating with people)  SO - I went to the MAC store in PTC and found NO help!  YUCK!   In fact, now I laugh, but when I walked in I was the only one in store and three employees were standing around the desk.  I announced, "do I look like a woman with a problem?"   They all scattered.  Not a good sign and the one I cornered knew nothing more than I did.   YIKES!  So, I went to a party for a little while, left with tears in my eyes to go home at 8 pm and try to get SOMEONE in technical support (cbeyond, att, apple care -  somebody) who could help me.

I took my laptop and phone, sat in the chair in my office, closed the door and prayed.   After one hour - I came out of the room with both devices working, synced, and without calling technical support.  I kept playing with the settings and numbers and the Holy Spirit finally took pity on me and solved the problems.  :)   I know that sounds crazy - but it TRUE!  I considered sending Apple a bill for solving my own issues while under contract with them - but just decided to suck it up.   They really should pay the Holy Spirit - he did it.  The Holy Spirit always comes through, doesn't he?   PTL!

Anyway - down almost a whole pound - so, on the way back to home base.   I will fight for my freedom (Gal 5:1) and I will not let myself be burdened AGAIN.

Here's a tip from someone in the fam: Noble Juices at Publix are 100% juice from the apple, orange or tangerine with no additives and not made from concentrate.   Plus their bottles are sustainable.  For those who like juices I think this is a winner!!  By the way, my favorite was the Tangerine.

And, I have been eating Mott's no sugar added applesauce that is sweetened and colored with veggies and fruits.  All natural.   50 calories per cup - blueberry, strawberry, and peach.   YUM!   My phase 2 people - this works for you as well.   The only problem is that it doesn't have the crunch NOR the fiber a real apple has.   And, I just heard a commercial yesterday for apples that says eating just ONE a day, lowers the bad cholesterol 23% and heart attacks for women by 40%.   Guess what I had last night with dinner?   :)

Gotta run - going out to to the streets today to talk to people about Jesus.   Gonna ask them, "if God would grant you one wish today for JUST YOU, what would that be?"  And if they respond, I am going to ask if I can pray about that one wish for them.   This is a new approach for me and I am excited.   Appreciate your prayers - people are hurting and I want to help.  I want God to be real in their lives.

Loving you today - PK
