“Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life. Put away from you crooked speech, and put devious talk far from you. Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you. Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure. Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away from evil.”

Proverbs 4:23-27 ESV

“Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord, that he may come and rain righteousness upon you.”

Hosea 10:12 ESV

“Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them.”

Hosea 14:9 ESV

“Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.”

Jude 1:24-25 ESV

“And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor be weary when reproved by him. For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.””

Hebrews 12:5-6 ESV

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”

Ephesians 6:12 ESV

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

⛪️

“May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.”

Romans 15:5, 13 ESV

“Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.”

3 John 1:11 ESV

“Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy! He who goes out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.”

Psalm 126:5-6 ESV

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Hebrews 12:1-2 ESV

“And Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone.’” And Jesus answered him, “It is written, “‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.’” And Jesus answered him, “It is said, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’””

Luke 4:4, 8, 12 ESV

Good Morning...

Brrrrr...

Bible Study Time...

Hi Dad...

Snuggle Bugs...

She was dreaming...

Breakfast Time...

even Murph was ready today...

And it is definitely time

for a fire...

Easiest way to start a fire :-)

Max loves it!

Maggie needed some too...

Out to the Barnyard...

Waiting...

The fire has been going for about 

thirty minutes or so...

It raises the temperature

in here pretty quick...

The Stove temp gets hot really fast...

he always gets it

real hot early on

and then it stays in

the optimum nearly all day...

the real hot burns off

any creosote in the chimney...

at least that is what

"they" say :-)

Had half an Avocado

for First Breakfast...

Then we had some of my

Homemade Sourdough Waffles

for Second Breakfast :-)

The Pups were interested 

in both...

We were both a bit lazy today...

we sat on the couch 

most of the afternoon...

reading and YouTubing...

I am still trying to

learn about all the grains

and especially

ancient grains...

they are so much

healthier than todays grains...

Fur Kid Dinner...

They all ate...

Murph usually eats

his dinner alright...

he isn't a 

"morning" dog :-)

Rob and Molly had some other

family events today so it

was just me and Lanny.

I made some

Home Made Pizza for our Supper...

I did take Paula a couple slices :-)

They were interested in that

as well...

They are interested in

anything we are eating...

Took care of the Outside chores

and all the Critters...

The kitchen is clean

and we are ready to 

clean up ourselves

and watch the next

"Die Hard:

A Good Day to Die Hard"

Good Night Dear Family and Friends...

God Bless You 

and

Sweet Dreams!
