I enjoy playing with html. It is a challenge to express a thought or make a picture using just the symbols on the keyboard.

Oh, Amy - I miss you all, too!!

I love your yorkie graphic. I would adopt that little furry kid in a heartbeat!

My lil “Popcorn” is almost three years old, and is still “POPPIN’”!

She doesn’t take my shoes, anymore, but she just LOVES it when I drop a pen or pencil - and I can’t catch her!

She was pretty sick for a couple months early this year - but between ‘mom’ and the vet - she got through it, and is gaining weight like a middle aged lady geezer. LOL!

Thank you so much for your birthday greetings. I’ve been busy around the clock since the dreaded birthday hit.

Today a reflexologist worked on the nerve endings for almost two hours. I am almost floating!!

(BTW - I continue to pray for many of my friends here, every night!)

I don’t know how I missed this darling birthday greeting! Thanks, Trish! I spent it with my kids for the first time in soooo long! It was good! :)

Who Are You?

March 29, 2015

When [Jesus] had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, “Who is this?” —Matthew 21:10

From time to time, we read of people who are offended at not being treated with what they consider due respect and deference. “Do you know who I am?” they shout indignantly. And we are reminded of the statement, “If you have to tell people who you are, you probably really aren’t who you think you are.” The polar opposite of this arrogance and self-importance is seen in Jesus, even as His life on earth was nearing its end.

Jesus entered Jerusalem to shouts of praise from the people (Matt. 21:7-9). When others throughout the city asked, “Who is this?” the crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee” (vv.10-11). He didn’t come claiming special privileges, but in humility He came to give His life in obedience to His Father’s will.

The words Jesus said and the things He did commanded respect. Unlike insecure rulers, He never demanded that others respect Him. His greatest hours of suffering appeared to be His lowest point of weakness and failure. Yet, the strength of His identity and mission carried Jesus through the darkest hours as He died for our sins so that we might live in His love.

He is worthy of our lives and our devotion today. Do we recognize who He is?

Lord, I am in awe of Your humility, strength, and love. And I am embarrassed by my desires for self-importance. May knowing You change every self-centered motive in my heart into a longing to live as You did in this world.

When once you have seen Jesus, you can never be the same. —Oswald Chambers

INSIGHT: The disciple of Christ should be preoccupied with exalting Him instead of self. The words “My utmost for His highest,” taken from Oswald Chambers’ classic devotional, express the goal of the follower of Christ.

Oh, thank you, Kitty Mittens! It was a lovely birthday that lasted nearly two days!

Have a lovely Lord’s Day!

~Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place~

The Triumphal Entry
12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the Feast heard
that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem.
13 They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting,
Hosanna!
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
Blessed is the King of Israel!
14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat upon it, as it is written,
-John 12:12-14 (NIV)

So good to see you. Wish you could drop more more often.

((((( Yorkie )))))

[potlatch]

Yorkie I was so happy to see you post and I'm sorry I missed your birthday. As you know - I am not very good at writing anymore.

My little Piper is 11yrs old already! I think back through all the years we have talked of our loved little pets and the trials we've been through. Time speeds by.

Just know that I think of you and keep you in my prayers.

[potlatch]

Thank you always dear Kitty.

[MEG33]

Lovely, (((potlatch))). Thank you for the blessings and wonderful graphic.
