Quiet Time in Bible Study...

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.”

2 Corinthians 5:17-19 ESV

“And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there.”

Revelation 21:22-25 ESV

“For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.”

1 Peter 2:15-17 ESV

“For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins.”

2 Peter 1:5-9 ESV

“Let your heart therefore be wholly true to the Lord our God, walking in his statutes and keeping his commandments, as at this day.””

1 Kings 8:61 ESV

“Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.”

Revelation 20:14-15 ESV

“Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from the heavens; praise him in the heights! Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his hosts! Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, all you shining stars! Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens!”

Psalm 148:1-4 ESV

“Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. God, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places. To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments.”

Habakkuk 3:17-19 ESV

“And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.””

Luke 12:15 ESV

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.”

Jeremiah 29:11-13 ESV

I'll share this one picture here today...

but I will make a video of our

Gathering last night and link it later...

We had a wonderful time...

we were missing Kyra and

Isaac and Sky and the Great Grands 

(I was so looking forward to seeing the babies)

but things happen and I am

SO blessed to have been able to

be with most of my Family...

♬ ♫ 🎶 "Monday, Monday...

So good to me..." 🎶 ♫  ♬

Here for the Cuddles...

Bible Study Time...

Fur Baby Breakfast Time...

And then out to the Barnyard...

a VERY different scenario than yesterday...

it is getting cold out there

and it is VERY windy!!!

They say that we are in store

for some winter weather!!!

Temp went down 10 degrees

since we got up...

Ethel was in the flock...

so whether she sleeps in the tree

or inside our Barnyard,

she knows where she is 

supposed to be at mealtime :-)

Gave the Critters

the leftover Popcorn from last night...

they ALL love Popcorn...

Putting away the Christmas and

bringing out the Sunflowers...

Sadie made this for me a couple

years ago...

I love it...

And iHeart's Sunny Radio

displays a LOT of Sunflowers :-)

All three together...

Maggie is actually

touching Max!!!

I hate to put away the tree

so I just decorated it with

Sunflowers...

I may change out the lights

for clear later...

but who knows :-)

Maggie wasn't sure

where she wanted to be

when I sat down...

I needed a little rest...

My back is aching...

I think from being on my feet

all day yesterday 

and probably lifting and moving

more stuff than I should have :-)

Rob made Chili yesterday

for his kids...

and he saved us some...

He is a GREAT cook...

he got that from me :-)

Sparkly Day...

The Goats are in for the night...

the Barnyard is secure

and ready for a cold night...

the temp has been

dropping all day

and I guess Winter is back!

Tonight we are gonna start

our Denzel Washington collection:

"Book of Eli"...

it is pretty brutal

but it is a

good movie...

He is one of my favorite actors

and he isn't afraid to stand up

for his faith in God...

💛

As promised,

here is a video of

last evenings Gathering...

It was a marvelous evening!!

Christmas on the Mountain 2025

Good Night Everyone...

God Bless You All with Sweet Dreams!!
