A Hunting we will go! Love this picture of our grandson gearing up for his first hunting trip.
The new template is a bit much. I will work on toning that day later this week.

She Fought the Good Fight

February 27 Bible Gateway's verse yesterday was: This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him . 1 John 4:9 A fitting verse for the day my everyday friend, soul sister, monster of the faith and mischievous partner in crime, Kaye, left this world behind and headed to her heavenly home. My husband was able to be by her bedside and said he knew she heard the words of our faith that he shared. Her sweet daughter held the phone up to her ear so I could say good-bye and the brightest single star you have ever seen shown through my bedroom window as she exited this earth! Yesterday, my heart literally ached so badly that I told the Lord, "Take me too!" Wouldn't she have been surprised if I had snuck up on her in heaven and said, "Thought you were going somewhere without me, did ya." When we received the call she was ready to go, I called out to the Lord for comfort and He led me to the Bible Gat...

Toe Sucking

June 13 If I keep my eyes on God, I won't trip over my own feet. Psalm 25:12 …or allow them to be sucked off by carp!  For as long as I've been on this lake (49 years) we've gone to feed the carp at various marinas.   I have a bag of old bread waiting to be tossed to the carp tomorrow by our grandchildren!   There's a new adventure at a couple of the marinas.  Toe sucking!   For 25 cents you can buy a small scoop of peanut butter to go on your toes. Then the carp suck it off!   I just got a pedicure, so I have an excuse not to participate! What we do need to participate in is keeping our feet on the paths the Lord sets before us. Give careful though to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Proverbs 4:26

The birthday son on a scout campout with his 12 year old son in Minnesota. It was the birthday of one of our sons. As I was writing a prayer for him related to his character, I googled traits of a godly man. I sent him the one below. Next my mind wandered to so many godly men who are a blessing to my life and particularly an encouragement to my husband who is a full time pastor. I decided to take the time to send the article to them and pray for them. I prayed: I'm stopping to pray right now for the Lord to fill you with wisdom, grace, a faith that strengthens everyday, and Holy Spirit directed prayers that reveal the authority we have in Christ our Lord, in whose name I pray. When Googling scripture verses for godly men, these came up.  May the Lord stir your hearts today to encourage some men of faith. Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. 1 Corinthians 16:13 Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-contr...
