Proverbs 10:22

These are my baby guinea hens (keets). They represent our first little plunge into country life. So far they are doing good. So fast and hard to get pictures of. They are supposed to fend for themselves and need very little feed, and they eat ticks (so I love them). I read one place that you can just let them rooste in your trees, and when there gets to be too many of them you shoot them out of the trees and eat them. So that pretty much makes it the perfect bird for The Man, lol. We'll see how it goes.

photo shoot

These are some images from a photo shoot I did a couple of weeks ago. Some of them turned out so good I wanted to share. You can see me in the eyes of the middle shot :) The little sister in the last picture has an amazing life story. She's from Siberia. I'm afraid I don't remember all the details clearly, so you'll have to forgive me if I don't get it quite right. This is how I remember the story anyway. She was found on the streets before the age of two trying to get food from a dog. She's deaf, at least in part due to that experience. If she had not been adopted by five years old they system there would have marked her as un-adoptable because of her disability and she would have lived out the rest of her days in an institution. Instead God brought her into a large American family, all of whom sign and a few others are also deaf. She has implants now and is beginning to hear. A sweeter more lively friendly little think you never saw. It was all The Man could do to keep from bringing her home, lol, he would LOVE to have some little daughters. There's lots of news here at the home front. I'll try and post an update soon. Blessings!c

Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.
The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.
He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

Welcome Spring!

Psalm 33:1-9

Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous!
For praise from the upright is beautiful.
Praise the LORD with the harp;
Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings.
Sing to Him a new song;
Play skillfully with a shout of joy.
For the word of the LORD is right,
And all His work is done in truth.
He loves righteousness and justice;
The earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
By the word of the LORD the heavens were made,
And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap;
He lays up the deep in storehouses.
Let all the earth fear the LORD;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
For He spoke, and it was done...

Isaiah 61:1-4 What a comforting verse this is when I think of what it means for me....
