Though the fig tree does not bud
and there are no grapes on the vies,
though the olive crop fails
and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
and no cattle in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.

God is exalted in His power.
Who is a teacher like Him?
Who has prescribed His ways for Him,
or said to Him,
'You have done wrong'?
Remember to extol His work,
which men have praised in song.
All mankind has seen it;
men gaze on it from afar.
How great is God-beyond our understanding!
the number of His years is past finding out.
Job 36:22-26

some amazing cloud
formations yesterday
afternoon.


These are the next 3 requested sweater
patterns and yarn!
The yarn will be so much fun to work with.
Lots of color and texture.
The patterns are all mostly the same type of
stitch pattern, but worked in such different
styles and each is constructed so differently
that I can't wait to get started!


He spreads out the northern skies over empty space;
He suspends the earth over nothing.
He wraps up the waters in His clouds,
yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
He covers the face of the full moon,
spreading His clouds over it.
He marks out the horizon on the face of the waters
for a boundary between light and darkness.
And these are but the outer fringe of His works;
how faint the whisper we hear of Him!
Who then can understand the thunder of His power?

Job 26:7-10 & 14

The man who fears is not made perfect in love.

The hummingbirds slowed down from
playing just long enough for a quick photo shoot!


Ask the animals, and they will teach you,
or the birds of the air, and they will tell you;
or speak to the earth, and it will teach you,
or let the fish of the sea inform you.
Which of all these does not know that the hand Lord has done this?
In His hand is the life of every creature
and the breath of all mankind.

Job 12:7-10

won't be long until everything is just bare again.

Can papyrus grow tall where is no marsh?
Can reeds thrive without water?
While still growing and uncut,
they wither more quickly than grass.
Such is the destiny of all who forget God;
so perishes the hope of the godless.
