Hello everyone...
Hope you are having a lovely weekend..
It is a long one here in Canada..
We call it Victoria Day weekend and Monday is a holiday..
We ended up staying home today instead of going to the farm..
I was kind of glad as there was a lot to do to catch up here at home..
Terry wanted to do all the lawns as they have grown so fast and such..
It is a beautiful sunny day again ..
I hung some clothes out and froze 20 bags of fiddle heads..
Some of you were wondering about fiddle heads..They are ferns that grow along the rivers and streams here in Eastern Canada..
They taste sort of like spinach and asparagus.. Only better..
We eat them as a vegetable with lemon butter or
in a wonderful fiddle head cream soup..
They are organic and if you pick them yourself they are free..
smile..
Our grandsons picked us a huge bag of them..
Now they are all ready for next Winter..
Last night when we were coming into the house I noticed that some of my favorite flowers were blooming..
So this afternoon I went out to pick some and to wonder around the yard.. Such a beautiful day..
I took a few pics for you ..
A little window box on my kitchen window..
A few chives..
Terry wanted to give the deck another coat of stain..
The old apple trees are all in bloom..
They bloomed so quickly this year..
And as for the flowers that I went out to pick..
Lilly of the Valley...
White Violets...
White Forget Me Not..
Aren't they simply beautiful?
I so love flowers.. And these three are my all time favorites..
Here my dears...
I put them in a little pitcher for you...
They smell gorgeous, too..
Tomorrow is the Lord's Day...
Today while I was working I listened to a wonderful preaching tape...
The preacher spoke about everything that can be shaken will be shaken in the last days..
And how we need to know what we believe and why..
How we need to stand firm on the word of God...
Sometimes we question ...
What is going on?
Things that we thought were important are in jeopardy of being tossed aside...
This age has different values and morals..
Even in churches the things that used to be right can now be
disregarded as old fashioned and not necessary..
I find myself wondering what is this world coming to?
And then I realize..
It is coming to an end...
I am so glad that I have found somewhere to stand..
on the Rock which is Christ Jesus..
He never changes...
He never gives up on me...
He is faithful....
The things that were important when I was only ten years old are still just as important to Him today..
He is still genuine...
When my soul is perplexed and I don't know what is going on then I need only to trust...
in Him...
He will see me through..
His presence today in my kitchen was as real as it was the night He saved my soul and filled me with his Spirit...
Yesterday while following behind Terry in the truck I was singing this old chorus..
Where would I be without Jesus...
Tell me where would I spend eternity?
Oh, I am so thankful for the Grace of God.. smile..
He is so available to whosoever will..
And He is as close as the whisper of His Name..
Take care dear hearts...
Thanks for dropping by and leaving your sweet notes..
Have a blessed weekend..
Love to you all...
