#100happydays Days 62-65
I am not sure how I got ahead of my friend Nicole at Just Live It, but somehow I am about 20 days up on her!
Maybe I just got going so fast in life I managed to cram a couple of days at a time into 24 hour periods.
Anyway today I am making up for lost time and am showing all my happiness for the last four days.
I am happy for the relaxed contented attitude the Lord has been helping me to maintain this summer.
I am happy for all the good work The Winchendon Enhancement Committee has been able to accomplish this summer from this building.
I am happy to live in a picturesque community.
And I am happy that moving my daughter to Medford MA went off without a hitch giving me some time to sit and take these pictures from her back porch.
Remember happiness and contentment are found on the inside not the outside. All clouds have silver-linings and gold stands out best on a black background

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Earth/ Harvest
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Earth or the Harvest Season
I love Cee’s Foto Challenge this week. The harvest season has very special meaning in Christendom. It speaks to revival, gathering in, hope and salvation from coming darkness. Harvest season is a time of great and fruitful labor. Jesus asked,
Don’t you have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. 36 Even now the one who reaps draws a wage and harvests a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together. 37Thus the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true. 38 I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor.” John 4:35-38 NIV
He also said,
“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. “Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.” – MA 9:37,38
Now of course when He spoke those things Jesus was not talking about wheat or pumpkins. He was speaking of a harvest of souls. People are the harvest of the church. People are the harvest of Christ. He didn’t die for riches or for fame. He didn’t rise again to prove a philosophical point. He came to rescue people broken by the world. We are each a part of his harvest if we want to be!
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
Are you a part of the harvest?

#100happydays Day 61
Each day holds a surprise. But only if we expect it can we see, hear, or feel it when it comes to us. Let’s not be afraid to receive each day’s surprise, whether it comes to us as sorrow or as joy It will open a new place in our hearts, a place where we can welcome new friends and celebrate more fully our shared humanity.
