Visiting the Holocaust Traveling Memorial

Thursday, October 12

The day was a very rainy day - downpours all day long. We also had a tornado watch during the day and night.

The girls did some school in the morning. We then left at 10:45 a.m. to go pick up two side tables for our living room on FB Marketplace. I paid $45 for both tables and I feel was a great deal!

After we picked up the tables, we stopped at Goodwill but did not find anything.

Then we went to the Jacksonville Main Library. Jacksonville Public Library is one of the 50 US libraries selected to host Americans and the Holocaust, a traveling exhibition from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and the American Library Association. The girls and I went to see it.

In light of the reactions of young people in the US regarding the current events in Gaza and Israel, we need to educate our young people about the truth of history! Shame on those young people.

There are young people who are saying that these rapes, murders, kidnappings, and beheadings are not really happening. This was also said about the Holocaust! Shame, shame on these young people.

They have newspaper clippings from all 50 states from this time! So neat! These are from Nevada.

My husband wanted to replace these small side tables.

He is in San Diego at their Aspire event. Drew Brees was one of their event's guests this time.

These are the tables I got off FB Marketplace. They seem large but I think if I replace with larger lamps and some greenery, I think they will work.

Summer made chicken and biscuits for our dinner. :)

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure. 100 Days of Joy and Strength. I was struggling last night. Darkness seemed to overwhelm me. The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope." Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;" II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord." Psalm 27
