Hello sisters!
A new day of His mercies is here. And I am back again too in the Lord. Hopefully you're enduring in the faith today and may He keep us all and give us what we need to stand faithful to Him in these perilous times.
I'm a bit late for my monthly picture post but I've been so busy and maybe don't have a whole lot to share. But either way I'm glad to be able to edify daily here and share what I can! I am sure all you sisters are keeping occupied in good things. It is a blessing having things to keep our hands busy.
We have been blessed with more rain and now the weather is warming up so there's a lot of growing going on in the garden.
It can be challenging finding a place to dry and store them all. I'm trying drying them under the new deck that got built on the house here. Hopefully no creatures will find them but hopefully they don't taste good to them, though we have had something nibble them before.
Most of the garlic is also ready for harvest...
Quite a few of the fruit trees seem to be having a year off but there's still some which we need to put nets on. It's lots of work growing your own food...but it is a good and important one really.
I've been appreciating the sunflowers. We haven't grown any here in so long. They are just so amazing flowers He made. This picture is full of His creations with also the birds and sun and tiny crescent moon too. So beautiful.
His mercies are also manifest in a lovely sunny day; for He sends sunshine and rain on the good and the evil.
The Lord is providing and I am sure you're also doing a lot of cooking, sisters.
More sourdough cooking going on lately. Lots to learn about it!
Give us day by day our daily bread.
Luke 11:3
Yes the Lord provides all we need and so much more. We are to be content with food and raiment but we all have so many more blessings!
There is quite a lot about leaven in the Bible too and it's good to ponder.
Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.Matthew 13:33
And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.Matthew 16:5-12
Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.1 Corinthians 5:6-8
The Lord often teaches us spiritual lessons from physical things and it does make them easier to understand too!
My pictures are kind of randomly in here but either way I'm just dropping them here anyway.
These are unique flowers with big caps that pop off when they open. So amazing creations.
The mornings and evenings of days are just extra refreshing aren't they, especially on hot days.
So that's my pictures dropped off of my month gone by. Yes time is flying and we are to redeem it in good things that please Him. Let's keep doing that and seeking to grow and do better all the time! The Lord help us. Hold fast and keep striving where you are sisters! Let us be content where the Lord has called us and be strengthened in Him and be filled with joy and peace in believing.
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men. Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.Romans 14:17-19
Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.Romans 15:13
