I was once walking my dog in the morning, and because of circumstances in my life at the time, was feeling very blue.
Suddenly, I was surrounded by a swarm of monarch butterflies, and as I lifted my eyes to follow their flight, saw a perfect double rainbow in the sky.
Of course, even if I had been carrying a camera at the time, the effect was so instant and stunning that I would have missed the shot!

The Monarch is dining on the flower of a Lantana plant.
I used to grow those. They smell like Fruit Loops to me. LOL.

Born To Rescue
Sept 11, 2014
Read: Mark 10:35-45
After the terrorist attack and the collapse of the Twin Towers in New York City on September 11, 2001, Cynthia Otto took care of the search-and-rescue dogs. Years later she established a Working Dog Center where young pups are put through specialized training to prepare them to help victims of disaster.
Otto made this comment about these rescue animals: There are so many jobs now that dogs are being used for . . . and they can save lives. Otto said that these puppies will one day give vital aid to people in life-threatening circumstances. They are born to rescue others.
The Bible tells us of the Messiah who was born to rescue humanity from the penalty of sin. What He did rises above all earthly comparison. Two thousand years ago, God Himself became human in order to do for us what we could not do for ourselves. When Jesus became a man, He understood and proclaimed that He was born to rescue (John 12:27). For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many (Mark 10:45).
Let us praise our wonderful SaviorJesus Christwho was born to save all who will accept His offer of salvation.
Use us, Lord, and make us humble,
Rescue us from foolish pride;
And when we begin to stumble,
Turn our thoughts to Christ who died. Sper
Christ came to seek and to save the lost.
James and Johns request to be allowed to sit on Jesus right and left hand in the kingdom, followed by their audacious claim that they could indeed drink the cup that awaited Jesus (Mark 10:38), reveals that they failed to fully understand the gravity of what that cup entailedChrists upcoming crucifixion.
