Beautiful dog!
My first dog looked just like that.
Gorgeous, but quite, shall we say, “dim”.
I hear you. :)
Of course, all dogs (and many people) seem dim compared to Torey the Border Collie/Jack Russell I had twenty years ago.
She figured out how to disconnect an electric fence in order to escape from the yard.
That’s a beautiful quote.

Sweet dreams to you, too! (((hugs)))
Friday greetings!
It’s warmer here, some melting going on.
No wind chill!
Sounds good! Hope you can see the ground before long. :)
Two Cats Meow Meow
Two cats look at each other
They see each other through a sliding door
The gray cat is inside looking out
The white cat is outside looking in.
One cat starts to meow
The other cat replies the same.
Both cats are meowing
Who understands language of these cats?
One cat meows again
Leaning its face on the glass.
The other cat does the same
Both cats are meowing.
These two cats enjoy their sitting
Blinking their eyes at each other
Wagging their tails randomly
They stop meowing.

Happy Caturday, Everyone!
Bible in a Year: Deuteronomy 8–10; Mark 11:19–33
You are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt. Deuteronomy 10:19 Today's Scripture & Insight:
When my friends lived in Moldova, one of the poorest countries in Europe, they were overwhelmed by the warm welcome they received there, especially from other Christians. Once they took some clothes and provisions to a couple from their church who were very poor, yet who were fostering several children. The couple treated my friends like honored guests, giving them sweet tea and, despite their protests, something to eat. As my friends left with gifts of watermelons and other fruits and vegetables, they marveled at the hospitality they experienced.
These believers embody the welcome that God commanded His people, the Israelites, to exhibit. He instructed them “to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul” (Deuteronomy 10:12). How could the Israelites live this out? The answer comes a few verses later: “You are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt” (v. 19). By welcoming strangers, they would be serving and honoring God; and in showing them love and care, they would demonstrate their trust in Him.
Our circumstances might differ from the Moldovans or the Israelites, but we too can live out our love for God through our welcome to others. Whether through opening our homes or smiling a greeting to those we meet, we can extend God’s care and hospitality in a lonely, hurting world.
When you receive the gift of hospitality, how does that affect you? When you think about welcoming someone, does a specific person come to mind?
Welcome Back, Rus
