Quiet Time in Bible Study...

“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.”

Ephesians 6:10-13 ESV

“if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

2 Chronicles 7:14 ESV

“For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out.”

Romans 7:18 ESV

“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.”

Romans 8:1-2, 6 ESV

“I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.”

Psalm 18:1-3 ESV

“But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.”

James 3:17-18 ESV

We gathered eggs after I posted last night...

this is the first egg from one

of our Littles... 

We think we know which one...

the first is often on the small side,

but they will get bigger...

...this is SO precious...

It was pouring the rain

and the Littles were huddled at the gate...

I'll have to quit calling them Littles

when they start laying eggs :-)

They are nearly identical

and will be hard to name...

Hello Tuesday!

Not a lot,

but we did get some rain...

Max is waiting for his Daddy...

it was so misty and cloudy this morning

that I couldn't see the moon or Venus...

Cuddles...

Bible Study and Pack Time...

Holding hands :-)

Baby Bunny in the yard...

the dogs didn't see him :-)

Waiting for me...

as usual...

Out to the Barnyard...

Removing more of the Water Lettuce...

it is definitely helping the

Duck Pond... and the Ducks

seem to love playing in it...

Went out to chat with Dandy...

and give him a carrot or two,

as well as a Horse cookie :-)

He was excited that

Paula was making his

morning Grain...

Admiring the baby fish...

I looked out and didn't see the Goats...

it isn't raining,

but they must have decided

it was too wet out there

and the House is nicer...

Making brine for more pickles...

These are a Clausen Copy Cat...

I made some last week and they

are really good, so I made more today...

they will sit on the counter for

three days and then go

in the Fridge...

Pumpkin Bread...

Starting to work on my Christmas Calendars...

the sooner I start the less

I stress about it in the fall...

Gave Dandy another treat...

Heading down to the Mexican

Restaurant in Clinton...
