Most of Saturday was spent outside doing yard clean-up. The weather was perfect! John and I got much accomplished but still have lots to do.We have two Eastern Redbud trees in the front yard in bloom. 

Our helper overseeing our progress, who barked whenever we moved out of his sight! He was happy as long as he could see one of us 🙂

We fix our eyes

By Lorraine

For we walk by faith, not by sight
2 Corinthians 5:7

For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
1 Corinthians 13:12

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Hebrews 11:1

For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have?
Romans 8:24

Before the Throne

By Lorraine

Before the Throne of God Above
words: Charitie L. Bancroft, 1863
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me
My name is graven on His hands
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end to all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me
Behold Him there the risen Lamb
My perfect spotless righteousness
The great unchangeable I am
The King of glory and of grace
One with Himself I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God! 
One with Himself I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God!

the skies proclaim the work of his hands

By Lorraine

This past Friday evening, after the earlier downpours, a front came through and the sky was ablaze with color.  John took Raider out to walk around the house and called to me to see how amazing the sky looked. These photos were taken in a five minute time span and the colors were not altered or enhanced .

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Psalm 19:1

Jesus Loves Me

By Lorraine

I couldn’t resist a photo of this unassuming lovey-bear, with his contented smile, carefully propped on a pillow when our granddaughters made their bed
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
John 3:16
