Evenin'/Mornin' dutchess.
I'm dog-tired and the "how many dogs..." question will have to be answered in the light of day.
But then again, there's the rub... don't need no stinkin' light bulbs in the bright sunlight.

Good morning Dutchess.

Years ago, I came home and was greeted by my smiling Bassett Hound (ever see a dog smile?). Trouble is - he had the new TV remote in his mouth. And I could see where he had already damaged it with his teeth.

I chased him down the hall, under the bed, over the bed, in and out of every room in the house.

Then I got smart. I'll feed him a little early, and he'll drop the remote. It worked.

Next day, I came home, he had my passport in his mouth. Then it dawned on me. FOOD !! I had just taught him a new trick.

It got worse. We had overnight guests one time, and he's at the door with somebody's underwear in his mouth. I had to, of course, feed him and then figure out how to return the (used) underwear.

The Clue Of Silence

Read: Isaiah 53

The chief priests accused Him of many things, but He answered nothing. —Mark 15:3

Bible In One Year: Psalms 10-12; Acts 19:1-20

---

The story Silver Blaze by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle centers around a clue of silence. Detective Sherlock Holmes investigates the theft of a prized racehorse, which had been guarded by a watchdog. In gathering evidence, Holmes learns that the dog didn’t bark during the intrusion. The detective deduces that the dog knew the culprit, and this leads to solving the crime.

For anyone investigating the identity of Jesus, the Bible holds many clues. One of them is His silence. Centuries before Jesus lived, the prophet Isaiah wrote of Him:“As a sheep before its shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth”(53:7). The significance of this remained obscure until Jesus was brought before His accusers and“answered nothing” (Mark 15:3).

It’s a small but important piece of evidence, especially when combined with other clues: His birth in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2; Luke 2:4), His Davidic lineage (Isaiah 11:10; Luke 3:31), and the casting of lots for His clothes (Psalm 22:18; John 19:23-24). These and more than 200 other fulfilled prophecies provide overwhelming evidence of the identity of Jesus.

He is the Messiah, the Son of God, the Savior of all who put their faith in Him. —Dave Egner

THINK ABOUT IT
Are you convinced that Jesus is the promised Savior?,
Have you accepted the forgiveness and eternal life He offers?
If you have doubts, read the gospel of John.

Believing Christ died—that’s history; believing Christ died for me—that’s salvation.

Good morning dutchess. How funny and how true! I've got an Aussie Shep and she would put the light bulbs in a circle then stare them down for a while. My other dog is a German Shepherd/collie mix who is the "chickenest" dog I've seen for being so large. She would run behind me and whine and "talk" (you know how Shepherds "talk") until *I* put the light bulb in. Woosie dog!

And a big good morning to all the rest of the Finest! I'm baaack. :-)

[MeekOneGOP]

Ain't it great !? :^D

Awesome demonstration of your powers of suggestion, BIS !!
Not going to bed until 0130, when you posted that, I was still asleep.

Waking at 0830, into my mind popped the thought,
"I must ping BIS today - -"

Gladly, do I ...and hope ytou have a good day |:>))

Poodle:
I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it.
By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.
