“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

I had to go over to Paula's

snake on her porch :-)

Personally, I think he is adorable :-)

“Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.”

Mark 13:33 NKJV

“For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, 

Blessed is the man who trusts in You!”

Psalms 84:11-12 NKJV

“A righteous man hates lying, But a wicked man is loathsome and comes to shame. Righteousness guards him whose way is blameless, 

But wickedness overthrows the sinner.”

Proverbs 13:5-6 NKJV

“Wisdom is in the sight of him who has understanding, 

But the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.”

Proverbs 17:24 NKJV

“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, 

the Lord Jesus Christ,”

Philippians 3:20 NKJV

“But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.”

Isaiah 40:31 NKJV

“And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, 

for He dwells with you and will be in you.”

John 14:16-17 NKJV

Good Morning Wednesday!!!

Max races to the Big Bay Doors

and waits for me to open them...

Then he is off to check out his domain...

this morning he came back into the barn

and got on the roof... he must have

found something because it sounded

like quite a ruckus up there...

Lanny had to go out and call him in!

Bible Study Time...

It wasn't even 6 o'clock yet!

She is impatient for Breakfast this morning :-)

Sparkly Day...

Out to the Barnyard...

cool, but I still don't need a jacket!

We cleaned the filter day before yesterday

and the pond is SO clear...

I was a little late doing it this year!

Ethel...

Lanny didn't put the board

back up across the top of the lattice

so she has no place to land

and use as a runway over the fence :-)

Sneaky!

Actually, since we retired

our taxes have been 5 minutes quick...

no extra stuff, no deductions,

certainly no refund :-)

Easy peasy...

I can remember in years past

however, when the angriest I would ever get

was during tax season when I had to fill

out the forms manually...

I went to Tax Act online years ago and didn't

even care if we ended up paying a bit more

as long as I didn't have to do them!!!

Begging for Breakfast nibbles...

Dad is doing bills

and Max is supervising...

Heading down the hill

for Sister Shopping Day...

Even tho Daddy is right there,

they still pout in the front room

when I leave...

And Max was in our room...

We had to go by Cheyenne

for Paula's routine CT Scan...

say a prayer for her

that everything is still good :-)

We went to Aldi's first,

then to Kroger's for the groceries

we needed,

then headed over to Freddy's...

Got home in time to

feed the Fur Kids their Dinner...

Lanny had to work on

a TORO blade...

he got it fixed tho,

and finished his mowing :-)

Out to the Barnyard...

All is well...

all the chores are done...

time for Jammies and Couch Time...

*****

Tonight we will finish the

X-Men series with

"Logan"...

made in 2017, it's pretty

dark and quite sad...

we will stop there 

because Rob and James tell us

that the Deadpool stuff is not for us :-)

They protect us that way 💗

Good Night Everyone!
