And I’d like every one to keep me in their prayers this morning....needle biopsy for the 3 hard painful pea sized knots I found. Course I won’t know results for days.

This is the cutest little baby skunk. It looked like he went
right to sleep when she was finished petting him. Such a
sweet baby. They are darling little animals. I needed a smile after Gail’s song
I listened to this morning. I’m back and forth on this thread.
(now I need some breakfast.)

Didn’t finish my bookwork yesterday so I plan to finish that awful job today. Don’t know why I dislike that job
so much but its boring and takes up my time. Now I have
a lot of medical bills to go through and that is very
depressing....LOL!

It’s Okay To Ask

July 10, 2012

It’s perfectly natural for fear and doubt to creep into our minds at times. “What if heaven isn’t real after all?” “Is Jesus the only way to God?” “Will it matter in the end how I lived my life?” Questions like these should not be given quick or trite responses.

John the Baptist, whom Jesus called the greatest of the prophets (Luke 7:28), had questions shortly before his execution (v.19). He wanted to know for sure that Jesus was the Messiah and that his own ministry had therefore been valid.

Jesus’ response is a comforting model for us to use. Instead of discounting the doubt or criticizing John, Jesus pointed to the miracles He was doing. As eyewitnesses, John’s disciples could return with vivid assurances for their mentor. But He did more—He used words and phrases (v.22) drawn from Isaiah’s prophecies of the coming Messiah (Isa. 35:4-6; 61:1), which were certain to be familiar to John.

Then, turning to the crowd, Jesus praised John (Luke 7:24-28), removing any doubt that He was offended by John’s need for reassurance after all he had seen (Matt. 3:13-17).

Questioning and doubting, both understandable human responses, are opportunities to remind, reassure, and comfort those who are shaken by uncertainty.

When my poor soul in doubt is cast
And darkness hides the Savior’s face,
His love and truth still hold me fast
For He will keep me by His grace. —D. De Haan
Reassurance comes as we doubt our doubts and believe our beliefs.

Read: Luke 7:18-28

Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, . . . the poor have the gospel preached to them. —Luke 7:22

Psalms 145-147

We use only the Kind of Traps that don't Harm Animals.

I sorta figured you wouldn't kill them but always glad to hear! I always think that everything is on this earth for a reason but they are here for us to enjoy maybe! I don't want to hurt any animal.

One of my sons is a hunter and kills deer and my other son used to feed them when he was in his other home. Where he lives now, he sees deer up in the woods and all sorts of critters and loves them all. And of course, I love both sons the same. Mothers are that way, of course. Wishing you a joyful day, Kitty.

I’m grateful it is 20 degrees cooler this Tuesday, than it was last Tuesday!

: )

But I’d also like to gripe that it has not rained in 2 months.
