Saturday on the Mountain... November 29

Quiet Time in Bible Study...

💨 Brrrr


“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the Lord God is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.” With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation. And you will say in that day: “Give thanks to the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the peoples, proclaim that his name is exalted.”

Isaiah 12:2-4 ESV


“But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.”

2 Peter 3:13-14, 18 ESV


“But you are near, O Lord, and all your commandments are true. Long have I known from your testimonies that you have founded them forever.”

Psalm 119:151-152 ESV


“For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.”

2 Corinthians 4:17-18 NLT


““Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

Matthew 6:19-21 ESV

It's Saturday...

for some reason my

usual wake up photo didn't

come out...

but I promise that I

was up at my usual time...

and it was 25 degrees outside!!!

Brrrr...

This bunch waited

for me to open the 

Big Bay Doors,

get the hot water boiling

for our morning drinks

and then come sit down

for our Pack Time...



My pillow cover 
for the next month or so...


Cuddle Bugs...
they aren't cold in
their snug little Goat House...


Contemplating his next move...


Yep...
then he stands there for
many seconds...
who knows what is going
on in his little cat brain...


...until he finally settles in...


This was Maggie's chosen spot
this morning... close to me
and using my
"table" for a pillow :-_)


Bible Study Time...


I have mentioned it already
but I am SO often reminded

of how thankful I am for

the comfort of our home...

not just the physical comforts...

and they are many!

but for the comfort of

my family...

for the joy my Husband gives me,

the joy of having my Sister so

close by, for my Sons and their 

sweet wives,

and even for these sweet little

fur kids that both annoy

and entertain us :-)

God has given me such a

wonderful life

and I am SO very thankful!!!

Friday on the Mountain... November 28

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

☀️


“and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”

John 8:32, 34, 36 ESV


“Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread, but he who follows worthless pursuits will have plenty of poverty.”

Proverbs 28:19 ESV


“We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,”

2 Corinthians 10:5 ESV


“Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith— that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.”

Philippians 3:8-11 ESV


“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.”

Romans 8:28-30 ESV

It's Friday!

And boy, is it COLD!!!



These two don't seem to mind...
they just snuggle together...
they have put on their winter coats
and are ready for it!


Max is getting his initial
morning rub and ready to settle
into his Cuddle Spot...


...for Bible Study Time...


On a morning like this
I am very thankful for Heat!!
Whether it is gas, electric or wood,
it is a MOST welcome commodity!

That look!
It's Breakfast Time
for the Fur Kids...


He did eat...
he is just the last one 
to finish!


Out to the Barnyard...
Brrrrrrrr!




Maggie nearly flew
out the gate...
her "treats" are all frozen
so she wasn't as thrilled about
the outing...







They all came back in
to warm up...


Our Breakfast...


Lanny worked on 
Firewood this morning...


While I was putting out
the Christmas Deco...


I don't do a lot anymore...
I used to decorate nearly
every room...





But it's enough for us...
I love Red and Green
and the lights...




Changed the Screensaver
and the Christmas Music
is playing!!!

🎄 🎶 ♬ 🎶 
"It's the Most Wonderful
Time of the Year..." 
🎶 ♬ 🎶 🎄


Now they are cuddling up
in the Christmas Blankets!


Out the Kitchen Window...



We ordered a
Rotisserie Chicken using InstaCart
from Costco
along with a few other items
I needed...
Lanny is cutting it up...


Then, for our Supper
we had the Chicken,
Red Potatoes and Broccoli...


Yum!


Goats are in for the night...
all the other chores are done...
We are in our Jammies
and ready to watch the next
"Back to the Future"...

Oh, and just so you know...
we do NOT do Black Friday!!!
I went out one year to Walmart on
the Friday after Thanksgiving
(forgetting it was that day)
and I turned myself around
and headed straight home...
vowing NEVER to go out 
on Black Friday ever again!!!
🤣

Good Night, God Bless, Sweet Dreams!!
