Greetings sisters in the Lord, 

"But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. 

Use hospitality one to another without grudging. 

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."

1 Peter 4:7-11

Let us glorify God in all things. 

As I've mentioned I've been looking after little ones (my niece and nephew) for a couple weeks. It was my last day today and I was able to take my niece on a walk around the property here looking at things. It was another beautiful morning and a blessing to just be in God's creation together. 

Country peace...

Lots of kangaroos... 

And we visited the chickens....

Water droplets never cease to amaze me. Water is a wonderful and important creation from the Father and it's fascinating how it forms little balls and clings to things like that. 

Praise Him for that truth! 

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 

Not of works, lest any man should boast. 

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 

Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 

That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 

But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 

Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 

And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 

And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 

For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 

Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit."

Ephesians 2:8-22

Let us rejoice that we can come to the Father through His Son. 

And I know I've shared probably too many kangaroo pics but this one is a bit cute (even though it's not good quality). 

Well it's a mother and a baby one on opposite sides of the fence (it's hard to see though). Well not a really small baby but still smaller. The baby one can't seem to get out of or jump over that fence so he's stuck where he is. So the mummy one has to stay behind and not join in with the main lot of kangaroos. Those two have been there in the same spot a couple days and the baby hops up and down the fence line trying to get out. I don't know how he got there in the first place but anyway. But it reminds me of how we could be with those who might be in our lives who may need help or we may just need to be there for someone and support them. 

"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ."

Galatians 6:2

 

I sat down next to my 1 and a half year old niece today with my lunch and she started putting her half-chewed veggies into my soup...so I ate them too. And later on she gave me some of her banana and pear. That's kind of her and I'm grateful for food and don't want to waste it...even if it's a bit hard to eat such things. Lol:-)

And since this is a women's blog, you mothers will know about such things:-)

And I thought of this. And yes I know it isn't really related but still.

"And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house. And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:"

Luke 10:7-8

And I saw this too... 

"For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake."

1 Corinthians 10:26-27

And a pic of tea I cooked tonight in the slow cooker...spaghetti bolognese.

Well Lord willing I shall be back at my earthly home tomorrow. And back here to write some more edification to my sisters. Stand strong...in the Lord! 

So I leave you with a scripture picture from a sister in Christ.

Amen. Praise God for His mercy and faithfulness. 

Love in Christ,
