Thanks for the ping and the song Lori, good to ‘see’ you! I’m going to include a ‘hi’ to others because I know I missed some pings today.

Wishing all a Blessed Sunday tomorrow.

How cute, Lori..I’m enjoying the song you shared..
Wish I could share today’s weather with you!

I took advantage of the warmth and hosed off the patio and washed the clear plastic bell that hangs over my bird feeder..It keeps the feeder out of reach of the squirrels.

Meanwhile I made soup...Taste tasting now to see if it needs more seasoning..( I cooked somthing that takes time..a rare event...LOL)

I'm Sorry to Hear about your Aunt, Diver Dave. (((((Hugs and Prayers)))))

I'm with you 100% on Awaiting the Warm Weather and Beauty of Spring;
I was just Thinking of the Lovely Flowering Shrubs that will Soon be in Bloom!
The Sweet Lady that Owned this Property before us Planted Several Beautiful Bushes,
And my Favorite is a Huge Spectacular Flowering Shrub that's Really Several Different Ones that Grew Together into a Glorious One.

Here's a Few Seconds of Video I Made of it, a Couple of Years Ago:

FLOWERING SHRUB

It is So Beautiful! I can't Wait for it to Bloom Again!

Savor The Flavor

February 3, 2013

In a fast-paced culture of “eat and run,” few people make time to enjoy a leisurely meal in the company of friends. Someone has even remarked that the only way to enjoy a seven-course meal today is to get it all between two pieces of bread!

After many of the Israelite exiles in Babylon returned to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple and the walls of the city, they gathered to hear Ezra read from the Book of the Law given by God through Moses (Neh. 8:1). They listened to God’s Word for hours, while teachers among them “gave the sense, and helped them to understand the reading” (v.8).

When they wept because of their shortcomings, Ezra, along with Nehemiah the governor, told them this was not a time for sorrow but a time for rejoicing. The people were told to prepare a feast and share it with those who had nothing, “for the joy of the Lord is your strength” (v.10). Then “all the people went their way to eat and drink, to send portions and rejoice greatly, because they understood the words that were declared to them” (v.12).

The spiritual banquet God has prepared for us in His Word is a cause for great joy. It is worth taking time to savor.

Lord, give us a hunger and a thirst to know You more
that can be satisfied only by time spent with You in Your
Word. Help us to savor that time and, as we do,
to grow more in love with You each day.
Christ the Living Bread satisfies our spiritual hunger through the Living Word.

Read: Nehemiah 8:1-12

All the people went their way to eat and drink . . . and rejoice greatly. —Nehemiah 8:12
Bible in a Year:
Exodus 31-33; Matthew 22:1-22

I must have hiccupped! It posted THREE times! (So I asked the kind mod to remove two of them!)

Thanks, for the kind words, ML!

I noticed that!

It’s not your fault. It happens to everyone with a ping list.

That is so beautiful, Meg. The ground looks like ours. We’ve had quite a snow and lots of cold. I slept down in the den last night for more comfort and warmth. The snow is beautiful but I hate being locked in the house for I don’t know how long. Hope it ends today. They scraped the roads but its still slick. Its thick on my driveway also. When you get to the end of my driveway, the car has a tendency to slide when you’re turning out backwards. SO I JUST STAY TUCKED INSIDE UNTIL ITS OVER!
