His delight is not in the strength of the horse,

nor His delight in the legs of a man;

the Lord delights in those who fear Him,

who put their trust in His unfailing love.

Ps. 147:10-11

 

cloudy and chilly days....!

You, my brothers, were called to be free.

But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature;

rather, serve one another in love.

than the wealth of many wicked;

for the power of the wicked will be broken, 

but the Lord upholds the righteous.

Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders You have done.

The things You planned for us no one can recount to You;

were I to speak and tell of them,

they would be too many to declare.

they think they are going to be getting treats!

cold and heat,

summer and winter,

day and night,

will never cease."

Gen. 8:22

 

Refreshing treats on a chilly day.

Thank you, Miss Chris for the snacks!

 

 God said,

 "Let there be an expanse between the waters 

to separate water from water."

So God made the expanse 

and separated the water under the expanse 

from the water above it. 

And it was so.

 God called the expanse "sky." 

And there was evening,

 and there was morning-the second day. 

Gen. 1:6-8

 

taking snow pics already....!

 

PURE GOLD!

love the way the sun and clouds

highlight the golden corn stubble.

It does not, therefore,

depend on man's effort,

but on God's mercy. 

Ro. 9:16

 

The weather change:

rain, cold, gray...

 

Time to use the houseplants for photo ops!

nor will people say,

'Here it is,' or 'There it is,'

because the kingdom of God is within you."

"I have no need of a bull from your stall

or of goats from your pens,

for every animal of the forest is Mine,

and the cattle on a thousand hills.

I know every bird in the mountains,

and the creatures of the field are Mine." 

Ps. 50:9-11 

 

Thank you, Sherry!

the perfect gifts make the perfect photo ops!

From one man He made

every nation of men,

 that they should inhabit the whole earth;

and e determined the times set for them 

and the exact places where they should live.

Acts 17:26

 

 

For who makes you different from anyone else?

What do you have that you did not receive?

And if you did receive it,

why do boast as though you did not?
1 Cor. 4:7

 

looking forward to some special family time! 

 

we are trying something 'new-to-us'

You, therefore, have no excuse,

 you who pass judgement on someone else, 

for at whatever point you judge the other, 

you are condemning yourself,

 because you who pass judgement do the same things.

Ro. 2:1

 

playing with the moon!!

For since the creation of the world

God's invisible qualities-

His eternal power and divine nature-

have been clearly seen, 

being understood from what has been made,

so that men are without excuse.

Ro. 1:20

 

We are finally going to give in to the changing of the seasons

today and take out the screens. 

On the plus side: it will make for much

better photo ops from the house.

 

 

Top-down raglan sweater.

I found 4 skeins of 'stray' yarn.

I love the way they all played well together 

for this!

The Lord your God is with you,

He is mighty to save.

He will take great delight in you,

He will quiet you with His love,

He will rejoice over you with singing.

Spent some time over the weekend

playing games with DGD! 

Your laws endure to this day,

for all things serve You.

Ps. 119:91

 

playing games with DGD!!

still blooming

after a hard frost!

 

A few years ago I made up a bunch of things

for a craft show. Due to circumstances beyond my control

the craft show did not happen. 

Before I tear these apart to re-purpose

the fiber, I offering these shoulder 

bags for purchase to anyone who is 

interested. 

Though the fig tree does not bud

and there are no grapes on the vines,

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. 

Hab. 3:17-18
