Quiet Time in Bible Study...

“For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
Philippians 1:21 ESV
“So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell. For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water? Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water.”
James 3:5-12 ESV
“See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.”
1 John 3:1-2 ESV
“And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.”
Daniel 2:21

Well, I didn't take my customary photo
of the clock this morning...
Maggie got me up three times barking
outside... we have a dog door
and have not been shutting it up
for the last few months...
Usually no problem at all,
but for some reason Maggie
kept going out and barking...
...the second time
I put the cover on the door
but I failed to latch it
so she figured it out and pushed it up
to get out again...
...around 4 she was out there barking
and we got up and brought her in...
I was a bit annoyed with her
and my routine was interrupted...
that is the reason I LOVE
schedules and ritual...
I am getting to the age that
off schedule creates a few problems :-)
Anyway, it was around 4 and everything else
went as planned...
Bible Study Time :-)
so Lanny and I are going to run a few errands
and then go to Steak 'n Shake for lunch :-)
They are one of the restaurants that
are going to use tallow for frying...
we definitely want to patronize those
businesses that are more concerned
with our health than with their profit!!
Time to head out to the Barnyard...
Yes, it's cold...
but it is supposed to get into the 70's today...
I will take the cold mornings!!! :-)
Good Night Sweet Friends and Family...
God Bless You All
and
Sweet Dreams!
