Earthquake Provides Memories of Long Forgotten Falls

Body
On the 6 of January 2021 I was kicking back in my recliner, thinking what would be really good to eat for supper. I was running thru my mind all the places in Holdenville to eat at and was thinking maybe pizza, then it shook me. Lou Jean said was that an earthquake? I thought it was an earth shaking thought I had or a message sent from above to get up and get pizza. Wow! I said that was close. Moved to the computer and this web site I follow. Yes, it was close, it was reported near Keokuk falls. Never heard of Keokuk Falls in my life but it must be close by. Where is there a Falls close to Holdenville; I knew of no such Keokuk Falls.

Good morning to you. Hope you have had a good week. I can’t believe that January is almost gone. My dad used to say the older you get, the faster the time goes. I thought he was just being an old timer and didn’t know what he was talking about. Turns out that my dad was pretty smart! I was thinking about all the blessings the LORD lets us enjoy everyday. When the LORD created the universe, HE built into it billions of blessings – all the star that twinkle, winds that blow, flowers that bloom, friends who care, verses that strengthen, music that plays, medicine that heals, tasks to do, books to read, dogs to pet, trips to take, clothes to wear, hymns to sing, prayers to offer, and plans to anticipate. Each one is a separate blessing from GOD. They can never be used up, and their supply endures forever.
