Joy in Jesus – Bryce Canyon Puzzles

\"B\"Believing in God doesn\’t give us tools to protect ourselves or our loved ones from evil, or pain or sorrow, but we can know that in all the things that happen to us God is beside us, before us, behind us, within us.\”

This quote is from the book I am reading that I was telling you about yesterday.  The Baby Promise by Carolyne Aarsen.

Just for interest sake I thought you might like to see the laundromat where I work. It\’s certainly not anything fancy just your typical laundromat. I was thinking to myself on the way to work this morning if I owned a laundromat I would make it more fun!

I would include a play area for kids and a little side place with a few round tables for sitting with a friend or doing one\’s homework. Definitely include Wi-Fi! Maybe a lending library.

And here is the funny thing.

I was thinking if I had a laundromat I would include one free washing machine and dryer for low-income folks to use. Because the owner was telling me about some of the street people who would come into do their laundry and I thought, \”Oh my gosh! It costs at least five dollars to wash and dry a load of laundry. How could street people afford to do that very often??

Then I read Kathy\’s comment yesterday about the Laundry Project.  We were both on the same wave length.

I suppose places like shelters and stuff have free laundry facilities. I don\’t know. Seems like they should if they don\’t!

  1. The Laundromat is nice and good to see where you are going to work. Looking at the time, I suppose you just came back from closing up. Great ideas for a Laundromat with amenities. I could certainly read while waiting for the wash. And the young ones would have their own little play area away from the customers.
    WIFI and books are very useful. People would stay after their clothes were done. Something for the homeless to have free service could work out somehow. Thank you for the puzzles. Bake some chocolate chip cookies this weekend. God bless!

  2. When I saw the photo of the laundromat I thought it will nice if you own it and maybe that is what God has in mind, you have beautiful dreams for it, may the Good Lord may those dreams come true, don’t know how but He is the King of Kings, the owner of the universe, and we are His precious children, God bless you abound.

    1. Hi Betty,

      Well that might be fun. One never knows. I don’t think it’s on the horizon anytime soon! 🙂

      Thank you so much for the encouragement though! God can do anything that is for sure.

  3. Very nice laundry mat. Nice ideas you have for the laundry. Hope you have a great day Patricia, weather is nice here, I am enjoying it.
    I do not know how the poor or homeless do what they do on the little they have, everything is so expensive. Thank goodness for Dollar Stores. The days of the affordable laundromat are over.
    God bless you Patricia.

    1. Hi Cathy, Yep, the days of affordable anything is almost over.

      I do agree with you on the dollar store – and thank goodness for places like St. Vincent’s and Goodwill and other places like that. They help as well.

      Well, I bought myself a bag of dark chocolates – and my power for self restraint is not very! Yum de dum, dum!

  4. What great ideas you have Patty !! Maybe you could give the owner your suggestions. And maybe he’d listen. And just maybe he’d get more business because of your ideas!! God does work in mysterious ways. Every action has a reaction. It’s a possibility the reactions would turn out well !! Have you have a wonderful weekend

  5. Well, think I’m too new in the job to give suggestions. He is pretty kind and open to the poor though so I expect he is helping in some ways just by keeping the place open and available for everyone. I do like working there the little I do though.

  6. So happy to find you again and glad to see that you are doing well and still working for the King and His Kingdom. And loove the games! Will certainly visit more often.
