“As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.”
Psalm 103:13 ESV
Happy Father’s Day to everyone. It was another rainy week, but some clearing allowed the waxing gibbous moon to make an appearance. I’m not suggesting there is an image of a circus animal beneath the moon, but remembering the comments from last week, and how those imaginations were running wild…maybe there is one? READ MORE
“The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.”
Psalm 9:9-10 ESV
I was able to catch a bit of sun, and felt only a light breeze on Thursday, so I took the drone up with the intention of flying around the fields and maybe to the river. The wind was actually much stronger than anticipated so a short flight over part of the garden was a better choice. We are a few days away from plants like zinnias, limelight hydrangeas, and marigolds springing to life with their colors, so things look a little drab to me from overhead. I would say the sunflowers are more than a few days away from showing their yellow faces! READ MORE
“The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.”

We received more than twice the average rainfall for the month of May! Rain is essential and a blessing, but sunshine makes me happy!READ MORE
