   Remember...
Sometimes it's easy to forget, but we are here to be personally tested, to see if we will do what's right.

Genesis 6:22
Thus did Noah; according to all that God ccommanded him, so did he.

Genesis 22:18
And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

Exodus 19:5-6, 8
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
[...]
And all the people answered together, and said, All that the LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto the LORD.

Exodus 24:7, 10, 12, 15-16
And he took the book of the covenant, and bread in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.

[...]
And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.

[...]
And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.

[...]
And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.


Remember, our Father in Heaven and the Lord our God, and the Holy Ghost.

Pocket hugs for everyone!

Continuation of the animal mystery....

Xihuitl: All right, this isn't funny. If it isn't stray clones tearing up my field and my woods, it's rats tearing up my hay!

Equus: What are you talking about, Xihuitl?

Xihuitl goes to the barn and points to a large, lovely, golden haystack. At the foot of it, the hay is scattered. Equus examines some pieces. The dried grass stalks have been nibbled on, but not eaten.

Xihuitl: That is disgusting! Not to mention insulting. This is perfectly good hay.

Equus: Well, hopefully they won't come back for more, if they didn't like it.

Xihuitl: True, except the little monsters did eat the alfalfa and clover pieces.

Equus examines the hay again. In the affected area, all alfalfa and clover are gone.

Equus: Hm...you're right....

Love to y'all! Glomp!

Fact of the day: In the Middle Ages, the common people couldn't read the scriptures. Generally, they couldn't read at all. And I think the scriptures were usually (or always) in Latin. We have a great blessing today to have God's holy word available to us all to read and study and pray about and think on.

God be with you.
