Friday on the Mountain... April 17

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

🌹♥️


“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.”

I Peter 5:8-9 NKJV


“The light of the righteous rejoices, But the lamp of the wicked will be put out. By pride comes nothing but strife, But with the well-advised is wisdom.”

Proverbs 13:9-10 NKJV


“Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.””

Genesis 28:15 NKJV


“And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,”

Ephesians 5:18-20 NKJV

It's Friday!

Up and At 'Em!



Ready for Rubs and Cuddles...


Bible Study Time...



Out to the Barnyard...


The pond is clearing up nicely...
and the Fin Kids seem VERY happy!


Waiting at the gate...


...some of the hens run in as
soon as I open the Goat gate...
they know there will be
some feed on the ledge
left over from last night :-)




Sparkly Day...



Lanny drove me over to Erin's Meadow...


I bought a few 
perennial plants 
for the herb garden...


I have to read up on 
each one to be sure
it isn't toxic to goats...
even tho it isn't in
the Barnyard,
they could nibble thru the fence...

I found some Lavender
and Bee Balm that shouldn't 
be an issue...
and another clump
of Chives...
mine had fizzled out from years
gone by...



Put this Meadow Sage
on this side away from 
the Barnyard fence
by the Culinary Sage...
it was questionable...


After supper I went over to 
the Grand Meadow with Lanny
to pick up his Golf Balls...




The boys are trying to get
this wrecked truck running
so they can use it as a
Farm Truck...
it's 4 wheel and
should be perfect for
traipsing around in the woods...



Heading out to the Barnyard...


All the Blue Bird Babies have hatched...


One of the Chickadee Babies is hatched...
they were a few days behind
the Blue Bird...


Six Eggs today...


All the Chores are done,
I am ready to clean up
and get into my Jammies...

Thursday on the Mountain... April 16

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

🍃🐸


“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, 

that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”

II Corinthians 5:21 NKJV


“Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land. Truth shall spring out of the earth, And righteousness shall look down from heaven. Yes, the Lord will give what is good; And our land will yield its increase. Righteousness will go before Him, And shall make His footsteps our pathway.”

Psalms 85:9, 11-13 NKJV


“The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles, 

And they go down into the inmost body.”

Proverbs 18:8 NKJV


“I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. 

And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.”

Revelation 1:18 NKJV


“that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, 

to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man,”

Ephesians 3:16 NKJV


“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!””

Luke 11:13 NKJV


“And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” 

And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.””

Revelation 21:4-5 NKJV
