Hello to you. I am just home from spending some time with my Aunt and Uncle. It’s really hazy out! Lots of fires around us. It feels like the whole world is in flames right now. My prayers go out to everyone dealing with the fires right now.
Today began with church we were in Psalm 13 a voice of lament:

Lament is turning to God with the unfiltered truth of what hurts. A prayer of lament begins by voicing an honest complaint.
After dinner we watched a couple episodes of Star Trek Strange New Worlds:

Core Premise & Creative Style
The series follows the crew of the Enterprise as they embark on a five-year mission to explore unknown sectors of space, seek out new life, and confront unique cosmic phenomena. Unlike many contemporary serialized dramas, it blends campy science-fiction fun, deep ethical dilemmas, character-driven comedy, and intense action.
Parts of it were kind of cheesy but overall it was fun to watch! I can remember watching the original Star Trek in my younger days.
Spin of the World Prayer Wheel:
This is the beginning of a new day.
I can waste it or use it for good.
What I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.
When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever,
leaving in its place something I have traded for it.
I want it to be a gain, not a loss;
good, not evil;
success, not failure —
in order that I shall not regret the price I paid for it today.
