Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Good morning Patience and Ma 💖💖. Raining cats and dogs here. Cup of tea in hand, beautiful Christmas choral music, and meeting friends in this beautiful church of ours. Can it get any better? I think not.😘
Good morning, Betsy💖.
For a second it almost smelled like fresh-cut grass, “💦🙀😺& 🐶🐶”.
A lovely sunny and not too cold morning here with java outside at the Tree..
Garrison selections (ahhhh)
-Yes, life is good❣️
🫖
It’s the small and often taken for granted pleasures which become more important, more essential these days which make life good. So grateful for them all.🙏😘
Isn’t that the truth!!!
Those are what matter and what is kept; in mind and spirit. Stuff to grow on💕
Absolutely! Yes, ma’am🤗
Here are some favorites . . .

Well, that one more sure paints a picture! 😂
Yeah, it’s a hoot. Robert Earl Keen and Lyle Lovette were roommates at Texas A&M. Their front porch was a gathering place for pickers and singers. 🙂
Such a resource of info are you!
Happy Cursday, Treepers! 🙂
Thank you, Garrison. I always enjoy your puppy videos.
🙂
“I am thankful for…
Paw prints on my floor,
Slobbery kisses on my face,
Nose prints on my windows,
Dog hair on my clothes,
No room on my bed….
For there will come a day when these things will be missed.”
Thinking of Cat ✝️
Got it, Patience . . . 🙂
And a tiny kitty curled up on top of my head on cold nights . . . 🙂
My heart💖💖💖!!
🙂 Little ‘Tink is workin’ her way up. The first really cold night and we’ll see if she gives herself permission. Probably, she’ll first find a warm spot under the covers.
I’m sure she’ll bag it before you do. 😂 Don’t roll over on her…😘
Oh yes……….
I knew you’d appreciate it, Aggiegirl. Waiting anxiously to hear about your precious new 4-legged family member!!💕
Thank you for the beautiful puppy video. Ah…you triggered a long forgotten memory……
In 1981. I was pulling out of our subdivision off of Rt. 61 in West Ashley… and saw a movement in the wooded area on the other side of the road..I pulled over when i realized it was a box of puppies hidden back a bit in the wooded area….two fluffy ones and one ‘houndish’…you know they did not get there by themselves……
Covered in fleas…all of them…
I took them to the SPCA in Charleston, shelters and rescues were not around then…they took them in…then, already having two dogs at home, mind you…I asked the girl “Which one is least likely to be adopted?”.
She pointed to the “houndish” one and said “that one”…. and I reached in and grabbed it…and said, “Ok, she is mine now”.
I named her Katie Scarlett, Katie for short…
She was the sweetest dog! Lovely memories of Katie….
I seem to be on the perpetual edge of tears lately. Maybe it’s just the season of thankfulness and expectation. So now I need to go get another tissue. What an insightful question, Aggiegirl. So of course your Katie Scarlett would be as you described her.
Similarly, when we were ready for a dog in Wales, we saw a litter of Jack Russells was available. In my American ignorance, I’d never even heard of the breed. I was working, so my husband, a lover of all dogs, went to the house in a village not far from us to check them out. He told himself the first one that made a fuss of him would be the one.
The only one to do so was the tiniest and weakest and was struggling to get out of the basket. But her little tail was wagging so hard as she eventually fell out.
He chose her immediately, as she chose him. We named her Penny because she had little copper penny seized marks above her eyes. She was the most wonderful dog…exuberant as Jack Russells are, but oh so sweet and gentle….and as with your missing Katie, there isn’t a day that goes by that we don’t miss her…
…and now I will stop. I need to get another tissue💔
Great movie . . .
Oops, IT’s CATERDAY Treepers!!!
Good morning, Garrison. A holiday week always throws my calendar off. No matter…this will be a bonus Saturday with a little of each. I’m not complainin’😁💕
My cognitive map is a cartoon. . . 🙂
I’ll match your cognitive map against mine….and raise you😂
I am lacking in cognitive……..

If I had been asked to play something like this, I might have stuck with the piano longer than I did.

Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing. – 2 Timothy 4:8
Movie makers and television producers seek to win an Oscar or Emmy. Football teams play to win the Superbowl and baseball players vie for the World Series and the trophies that come with victory. Students of all ages strive for academic, musical, or athletic awards. However, the rewards of this world mean nothing in the grand scheme of things.
The apostle Paul was nearing death. He had spent months in the Mamertine Prison in Rome – a dark dungeon with a hole in the roof through which food was dropped and water lowered to him. Only Luke had stayed to minister to him as he was able. It was in this discouraging environment that Paul looked with great anticipation to the crown of righteousness that awaited him, not necessarily for the work he had done, but for his faithfulness to the Gospel and countering false teachers and those who sought speakers who would tell them what they wanted to hear rather than the truth of God (2 Timothy 4:1-4).
The crown of righteousness awaits for believers who love the Lord, seek to do His will, and look with anticipation to His appearing. William Borden, burdened as a high school graduate to witness to Muslims in China, attended college and seminary. He was on his way to Asia when he contracted meningitis and died within a month, never accomplishing what he set out to do. In his Bible were these words, “No reserves… No retreat… No regrets.” He was faithful, which is what the Lord desires of you!
In these turbulent times, pray that people in positions of authority will seek and be faithful to God’s direction.

Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of mine hands: thy walls are continually before me. Isa. 49:15, 16
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Psa. 37:23

The sorrow of the world worketh death. II Cor. 7:10
When Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his ass, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died. II Sam. 17:23
A wounded spirit who can bear? Prov. 18:14
Is there no balm in Gilead? is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered? Jer. 8:22
The LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek: he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to comfort all that mourn; to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. Isa. 61:1-3
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Matt. 11:28-30
Philip preached unto him Jesus. Acts 8:35
He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. Psa. 147:3

Good morning all.
News on the climate change front that you won’t see on the weather channel or “news”.
If you run the numbers this experiment demonstrates the Green House Gas effect of CO2 is only about 25% effective as the models predicting catastrophic climate change claim.
Study Finds The CO2 Greenhouse Effect Is Real…But Dangerous Global Warming From Rising CO2 Is Not (notrickszone.com)
The number of Pacific Typhoons has been generally declining for the last 70 years according to the JMA.
Pacific Typhoons Continue Downward Trend, Contradicting Alarmist Claims Of More Storms (notrickszone.com)
China says screw the west, we are smarter than that:
China To Double Coal-Fired Power Plant Capacity…Aims To Avoid European, US Blunders (notrickszone.com)
Can you imagine watching all of this from the point of view of the Chi-coms?
They are exempt from climate change rules. Because they are a “developing” nation………with the second largest economy IN THE WORLD!
They can do whatever they want, and they are doing just that!
They have to think we, and other nations, are collectively stupid…….and ripe for the picking.
If it’s GLOBAL WARMING (climate change) then why do they not have to stop using fossil fuels?
It’s a scam.
Rah, I appreciate your posts that reveal the truth about the climate and weather.
The hyupocrisy of western leaders is visible for all to see. They want to “virtue signal” by eliminating fossil fuels in their own nations, while at the same time allowing, in fact encouraging China to build more coal fired power stations so that China can manufacture all of the “goodies” that western nations want and desire. They act as though that pollution in China does not affect the earth or her atmosphere in the same way it would if it happened here. It’s ALL a sick game… much of it simply a designed transfer or wealth under the guise of “Global Warming” and then changed to “Climate Change” when the warming ceased
November 26 Oswald Chambers
The Focal Point of Spiritual Power
…except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ… —Galatians 6:14
If you want to know the power of God (that is, the resurrection life of Jesus) in your human flesh, you must dwell on the tragedy of God. Break away from your personal concern over your own spiritual condition, and with a completely open spirit consider the tragedy of God. Instantly the power of God will be in you. “Look to Me…” (Isaiah 45:22). Pay attention to the external Source and the internal power will be there. We lose power because we don’t focus on the right thing. The effect of the Cross is salvation, sanctification, healing, etc., but we are not to preach any of these. We are to preach “Jesus Christ and Him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:2). The proclaiming of Jesus will do its own work. Concentrate on God’s focal point in your preaching, and even if your listeners seem to pay it no attention, they will never be the same again. If I share my own words, they are of no more importance than your words are to me. But if we share the truth of God with one another, we will encounter it again and again. We have to focus on the great point of spiritual power— the Cross. If we stay in contact with that center of power, its energy is released in our lives. In holiness movements and spiritual experience meetings, the focus tends to be put not on the Cross of Christ but on the effects of the Cross.
The feebleness of the church is being criticized today, and the criticism is justified. One reason for the feebleness is that there has not been this focus on the true center of spiritual power. We have not dwelt enough on the tragedy of Calvary or on the meaning of redemption.
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
We must keep ourselves in touch, not with theories, but with people, and never get out of touch with human beings, if we are going to use the word of God skilfully amongst them.

Jordan Feliz – “Jesus Is Coming Back”
More climate/weather news your not likely to hear on the Weather Channel or the “news”.
Global ACE (Accumulated Cyclone Energy) is only 74% of normal year to date. Every Basin is below normal even the N. Atlantic Basin is at 97% of normal. It is almost certainly going to turn out to be a below normal number for Atlantic Hurricanes this year.
On top of that the power of storms globally is continuing to decline.

Mornin’ all!
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
Good morning, duchess.
“No act of kindness is ever wasted.”
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.
