Ruth 1:16-17
And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:
Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me.

Joshua 24
14 Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.
15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
16 And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods;
17 For the LORD our God, he it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and which did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the people through whom we passed:
18 And the LORD drave out from before us all the people, even the Amorites which dwelt in the land: therefore will we also serve the LORD; for he is our God.

Heavenly Father's love be with you always, and Jesus Christ's. We can be true and faithful, obedient and virtuous like Ruth, loyal like Joshua, meek like Moses. God be with you, and Their Holy Spirit. Stay strong in the faith of our Lord. In my Lord Jesus Christ's holy name, amen.

Equus: Hi, everyone! Two important items of business. One, my friend Starflower has finally joined MyOtaku! Her name is DarkLynx9701, and Starflower is one of her...um...multiple personalities. It's kind of a long story as to why I call her Starflower and now she's DarkLynx9701, so--

Xihuitl: So we're not going to worry about it right now. But welcome! Two, Equus's family now has a puppy. ^.^ He's a cute little 11-week-old. Jingles is cute as anything and has a very thoughtful expression. He finds Equus a little unnerving still, but he's not used to her.

Haru-clone: (laughs as Jingles licks his fingers) Can we take the dogs out?

Equus: Of course. Let's all go for a walk. Come on, Mudpie, Blue, Cloud! (grabs Sano's arm) Walkies!

All three dogs run to the door, and Haru-clone carefully puts on the puppy's leash, since he's still, well, just a puppy.

Xihuitl: Love and hugs, friends. We'll talk to you soon. God be with you, and Jesus Christ and Their Holy Spirit.

Equus: By the way, CTRNikkiM, the bishie you love is worth it. (squeezes Sano) Kurama-kun must love you to hang around.

Xihuitl: (whispers) And if you're like Equus, it may be more of a spontaneous thing--whether or not it's a good thing. ^.~ Love and hugs, all!

Fact of the day: Rhubarb stalks are edible (and yummy with strawberries in pie or with sugar). The leaves, however, are toxic. Burdocks, I believe, are edible when young. So be careful what you eat!

Take care, and may you feel Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ's ever-present love for you and Their loving guidance.

John 3: 16-17
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
