Okay, Curtis. Do you enjoy orange juice? How about bread? Grab some extra loaves when your favorite bread is on a really good sale.

I know 78 is extreme for most people, but it was to offer a paradigm shift. My challenge was to move the thermostat by 1 degree. Surely you boys can manage that. My husband is a mini furnace and he's acclimated to the change which we did gradually. You can do it.

It's in the new covenant as well. Jesus said, "Woe to you teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices - mint, dill and cummin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law - justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former." - Matthew 23:23 Jesus said do BOTH, tithe along with justice, mercy and faithfulness.

Thanks for sharing. It's a great message that I must remind myself often.
