“Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.”

Colossians 4:2 ESV


“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.”

1 Peter 1:3-4, 8-9 ESV


“Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law. Make me understand the way of your precepts, and I will meditate on your wondrous works. Put false ways far from me and graciously teach me your law! I will run in the way of your commandments when you enlarge my heart!”

Psalm 119:18, 27, 29, 32 ESV


“but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”

John 20:31 ESV

Hello Saturday...

the temps are almost like spring...

if it weren't for the bare trees and

for the leaves everywhere

you might think it was...



Cute...



Bible Study Time...



I am thankful for Memories...
both the sweet and the bitter...
Thank you Lord
for all the things you
have allowed me to be a part of,
all the things that have given me
cherished memories...


Fur Kid Breakfast...



Murphy walked away...


I coaxed a bit 
and he finally ate :-)
It is a Dog Game
we play most every day...


Out to the Barnyard...






Pup Pile Patrol...


Fiona wanted her grain inside...
was still too wet for her...


Baby is OK with 
a little wet...




On our way to the Gym...




Came home and made
some Breakfast...


Avocado and Duck Egg...


We are moving
the Brookstone Flat Top
back to the porch off the kitchen...
well, Lanny is moving it :-)
So he is cleaning a bit...


Been wanting it back here
for a long time...


Sparkly Berries...




Fiona wasn't that interested,
Baby LOVES 'EM,
and the Chickies got some too...


Max was out hunting, I guess,
so only these two had
Fur Kid Dinner...


I grilled some Pork Loin Chops
on the flattop...
YUM!


Mashed Potatoes and Steamed Broccoli...


We took care of the Goats
and the Chickies
(those little FREELOADERS!!!)
and the Ducks,
which ARE laying an egg per day! :-)

Ready to get our 
Evening Attire on
and sit on the couch with 
the Fur Kids...
Tonight we will watch
"Star Trek:
The Wrath of Khan"...

My Sentiments, exactly :-)

Friday on the Mountain... November 21

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

☔️


“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.”

Isaiah 43:2 ESV


“Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise.”

James 5:7-8, 13 ESV


“How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word. I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways. I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.”

Psalm 119:9, 11, 15-16 ESV


“The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.”

John 1:9 ESV


“It has been testified somewhere, “What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him? You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor,”

Hebrews 2:6-7 ESV


“I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.”

Psalm 121:1-3, 8 ESV


“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

Romans 12:1-2 ESV

It's Friiiiiiidaaaaaay!!!
Hello Weekend!



Finding his sweet spot...


For Bible Study Time...


This morning I am thankful
for electricity...
that is another thing that
much of the world does not have in abundance...
we can flip a switch for lights,
for heat, for our coffee...
Wow!
We do tend to take it for granted
until the power goes off :-)


We had 1.8" rain last night...
Paula's gauge usually shows more
but this is good :-)


Fur Kid Breakfast...


And Sparkly Day...


Out to the Barnyard...









Pup Pile Patrol...


On our way to the Gym
we passed over 30 turkeys
coming down off our hill...
Our property
ends at the ridge along Granite Road...
These are our turkeys :-)
They are opportunists 
and enjoy this neighbors pasture...





Came home and had Breakfast...
I had Avocado
and Lanny warmed up his left over
Country Fried Chicken and Mashed Potatoes...
yes, for Breakfast :-)


It was sprinkling rain
so the goats AND chickens
were in the Goat House...


Interesting...


Coming for his Cookies...


The fish were on top
enjoying the warmer weather...


Made some Sourdough Pita Bread...


*****

After I fed the pups their
dinner Lanny took me to
Hobby Lobby for a few items
for Christmas projects...


Another interesting poster...


We also went to the 
Co-Op for Goat Feed
and Sunflower Seed...
 then to our favorite restaurant :-)
The Git-N-Go...


Yum...
we brought one home for Paula as well...


The Critters are all in for the evening
and just in time before the rain
came back...

We will start with the
old Star Trek movies tonight...
This first one was such a
exciting movie when it came out...
we looked so forward to it...
it is a bit dated now
but we still like to watch it...

Goodnight, Sleep Tight...

God Bless and Sweet Dreams!
