GOOD

MORNING! 
Dear God, send Your Holy Spirit
upon us to be our helper and our
guide. Give us the spirit of
wisdom and understanding, the
spirit of right judgement and
courage, the spirit of knowledge
and reverence. Fill us with the
spirit of wonder and awe in your
presence. We pray to the Lord.
Amen.

An old woman is overweight. Her doctor told her to decrease
35 kilos. If she loss 11 kilos in the 1st week, 9 kilos in the
2nd week and 7 kilos on the 3rd week. If she continues losing
at this rate, how long will it take her to lose 35 kilos?
