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 †

“God has not told us all He knows,
but what He has provided is sufficient for our faith”…..
I was fighting NHL. Gone through 2 types of chemo &
was going through a BMT.
I was thinking I don’t see “any light at the end of the tunnel “.
I then remembered a title of a book “Just Enough Light for the Step I’m On”
I started taking it one day a time. Soon there was a flicker of light
and later the light at the end of the tunnel.
God gave me enough light I needed each step of the way.
🙏 ♥️ ✝️
Keep keeping on, Donna!
You are an encouragement.
Yours in Christ,

My blueberry bushes are budding out. There should be plenty to enjoy as fresh fruit and an abundance to freeze.
All kinds of cherry and dogwood blossoms happening here in the NW Sherri. I’ll have to check my blueberry bushes today. 🇺🇸🤠🇺🇸
Thanks Jay! May I bring a friend?
Most definitely, thinking there’s some carrots around 🇺🇸🤠🇺🇸
Hey there, Mr jay 💕 Just passing through on my way to gwelli…
Sweet music 😊
Oh, but before I go, I shall leave this….
“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted ” 💕
…which reminded me of this 💕
Sweet dreams and refreshing sleep dear Betsy. 🇺🇸🤠🇺🇸
Here I am again, dear Mr jay…good morning and bless you for the thought 😘 Refreshed and so ready to partake of your lovingly prepared breakfast. What a.splendid host you are! Thank you 😊☕
Bets, this is the sweetest image. Secret, I believe!
Isn’t it lovely, dear Truli?? No matter how old I get I am still drawn to ones just like them…
Maybe the reason is that I AM older. Yes..it’s probably that 😘☕
One for you, Garrison. Dashing off as I am late for a date (so speak) with Mr Sandman. Here’s hoping he doesn’t stand me up!! I’m sure you’ll know it…and the artists. It has become a great favourite of mine 💕

Nice choice, thank you (yeah, I know, it was “just for Garrison”, but I listened to it anyway)
Not just for, dear benzy, but one for 😁😘
The Rodrigo guitar concerto most well known is for single guitar. And as Garrison once had the incredible honour of tuning Romero pere’s guitar (Pepe’s) I knew he would appreciate this marvelous performance by the whole incredible family especially.
Wasn’t it great? I am so glad you liked it 💕
Mornin’ Dear Bets
Found the Sandman riding a burro – I should buy a lottery ticket today! 😊
Morning, Corny 😘…oh yes, DO!!!!! 😂👍🏻
You know how I feel about coincidence 😎
Ain’t no such animal.
And look what Mr Sandman is riding!!
Nope, no such thing as coincidence…
Again, 😎😉
Bets
I agree – no such thing as coinkydinks. Ima gonna search for this book – though I slept over 4 hours straight last night before a fur kid poked me in the nose!
Woo Hoo
Found it used – published in 1989. I think that’s the last year I got a full night’s sleep! ❤️
A coincidence! 😃 😀 😄
Hahahahahahaaaa!!! Looked like that did he?? 😂
It seems that’s all I am allowed, too, dear sis…four hours, if that. Ugh….

Thank you Joe Biden and the governor of PA. Your both responsible for those Amish being dead. Biden for letting him in and Shapiro for allowing fake truck training schools and fake state exams to allow untrained and untested people to get class A CDLs.
It is obvious he didn’t “drift” into the left lane. He dodged into the oncoming traffic lane intentionally because he was going to crash into the rear of the truck stopped in front of him instead of going into the ditch to the right.

This organization is exposing the brokers for their defacto slave labor (the illegal truckers) and involvement with cartels.
Brokers make billions while everyone else suffers, and a recent Supreme Court ruling allows them to escape prosecution! Their lobbying is very powerful.

Michelangelo
(1475-1564)
Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet of the High Renaissance (David, Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel), dies at 88
Biography: Considered one of the greatest artists of all time and a leading artist during the Italian Renaissance. Michelangelo was a painter, sculptor, architect and poet. Considered the original ‘Renaissance Man’ Michelangelo’s career developed alongside of, and was often compared to, that of his elder rival Leonardo da Vinci.
Born within the Republic of Florence, Michelangelo began his career as an apprentice to Florentine artist Domenico Ghirlandaio. Two of his great sculptural pieces were completed before he was 30 years of age – the Pieta, now in now in Saint Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City, and his statue of David for the city of Florence.
Michelangelo is also celebrated for his paintings in the Sistine Chapel within the Vatican. The ceiling, on which he worked for four years, depicts scenes from the bible’s Book of Genesis. He later competed The Last Judgement on the back wall.
Michelangelo’s architectural work comes mostly from his later career. It reached its peak when he was appointed architect of St Peter’s Basilica in Rome in 1546. Building on the work of earlier architects for the church, such as Bramante and Bernini, Michalangelo was responsible for realizing its layout, including its massive dome, the tallest in the world.

Charles Lewis Tiffany
(1812-1902)
American jeweler and founder of Tiffany & Co, dies at 90
Biography: Charles Lewis Tiffany along with his friend John B. Young established the jewelry company Tiffany in 1837 as Tiffany, Young and Ellis. They settled in Manhattan selling imported high class glassware, silverware jewelry and porcelain.
The company began designing its own jewelry in the 1850s, relocating to Fifth Avenue and opening branches in Paris and London. Tiffany adopted the British silver standards, establishing the term “sterling” in the US. By 1858 he had sole ownership of the company. His son Charles Comfort Tiffany succeeded him as director and led the company to become one of the leading proponents of the Art Nouveau style.

Robert Oppenheimer
(1904-1967)
American theoretical physicist known as the father of the atomic bomb (Manhattan Project), dies of throat cancer at 62
Biography: J. Robert Oppenheimer was an American theoretical physicist and the scientific director of the Manhattan Project during World War II. His leadership in the development of the atomic bomb earned him the nickname “father of the atomic bomb.”
Born into a wealthy Jewish family, Oppenheimer displayed exceptional academic talents from a young age. After completing his bachelor’s degree in chemistry at Harvard University in 1925, he went on to obtain his doctorate in physics from the University of Göttingen in 1927, studying under Max Born.
By 1936, he had become a full professor at the University of California, Berkeley, where he made notable contributions to quantum mechanics and nuclear physics, notably the Born–Oppenheimer approximation and research on electrons and positrons.
Oppenheimer’s scientific prowess led to his selection as the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory in 1942, part of the top-secret Manhattan Project tasked with creating the first nuclear weapons. His leadership was integral to the project’s accomplishment, culminating in the Trinity test, the world’s first detonation of an atomic device, in July 1945. This test was a prelude to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August that year, which remain the only times nuclear weapons have been used in conflict.
Following World War II, Oppenheimer took on the role of director at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and became the chair of the General Advisory Committee of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. He used his position to advocate for the international control of nuclear energy and controversially spoke out against the hydrogen bomb’s development.
Oppenheimer’s advocacy for arms control, combined with earlier ties to the Communist Party USA, led to an intense political controversy that resulted in the revocation of his security clearance in 1954, effectively severing his connections to the government.
Despite this setback, Oppenheimer continued to educate, write, and contribute to the field of physics until he was awarded the Enrico Fermi Award in 1963, symbolizing a belated acknowledgement of his scientific contributions. He passed away from throat cancer in 1967.
Throughout his life, Oppenheimer’s work intersected with that of other luminaries such as Enrico Fermi, Ernest Lawrence, and Edward Teller, and he left a lasting impact on theoretical physics, including the first theoretical description of black holes and neutron stars.

Clara Driscoll…
designed more than thirty lamps produced by Tiffany Studios during her several decade career. She won a bronze medal at the 1900 Paris World’s Fair for her Dragonfly lamp design. When her Wisteria table lamp was produced in 1905–1906, it was one of the most expensive and most popular lamps sold by Tiffany Studios at the time.
At the time, Tiffany lamps could sell for as much as $400, which is about $15,000 today. At auction, original Tiffany lamps now go for tens or hundreds of thousands to several millions of dollars. For instance, a rare Butterfly table lamp, circa 1900, { sold in 2023 for more than $768,000.}
Greetings Treepers! 🙏✝️🙏
And by the way, I agree with Rep. Fine.
“If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one,”
That statement is not bigotry as I see it. It is a statement highlighting the FACT that Islam is not compatible with Western values or our Constitution.
Just a reminder, the democrats calling for the resignation or censure of Fine for that statement defended Rep. Eric Swalwell sleeping with the communist spy ‘Fang Fang’.
Megyn Kelly can KMA!
It’s right & proper to deny ‘racism’ AND instead reject wholesale their predatory-encroachment form of *government*.
“… The United States of America is the greatest experiment in individual freedom the world has ever known. It is the first system of governance to establish a separation between religion and state. This separation is an essential component of Americanism. Islam has no such separation.
…
Islam is not a religion like any other. Islam is a theocracy. It is a supremacist, expansionist, binary, sociopolitical replacement ideology with a religious wing.
…
the only “religion” on the planet that advances genocide against non-believers––Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians. For 1400 years Muslims have been taught that there will only be peace on Earth when all the world is Muslim, which means after the establishment of a global Islamic caliphate.
The tactical method for achieving the Islamic caliphate is jihad which has two faces. Violent Islamic terrorism that specifically targets civilians, and polite stealth jihad that pretends peace while making war on non-believers using its twin signature tactics––taqiyya (lying in the service of Islam) and hudna (ceasefire pauses used to rearm, resupply, and reattack).

EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE
Verse of the Day for Wednesday, February 18, 2026
✟
“I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.”
Psalms 108:3 (KJV)
Pulpit Commentary for Psalms 108
Psalm 108:1
<or Psalm of David.>> O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
Verse 1. – My heart is fixed. In the original form (Psalm 57:7) this emphatic phrase was reiterated, which much increased the force of the declaration. I will sing and give praise, even with my glory. It is difficult to assign any distinct meaning to the last clause, which has nothing parallel to it in Psalm 57:7.
Psalm 108:2
Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Verse 2. – Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early. Psalm 57. has, “Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp,” which is intelligible and forcible.
Psalm 108:3
I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
Verse 3. – I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.Identical with Psalm 57:9, except that “O Lord” is expressed by “Jehovah” instead of “Adonai.”
Psalm 108:4
For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
Verse 4. – For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds. Identical with Psalm 57:10, with the exception of one preposition, which occurs only in some manuscripts.
Psalm 108:5
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;
Verse 5. – Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth. Absolutely identical with Psalm 57:11.
Psalm 108:6
That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
Verse 6. – That thy beloved (or, thy beloved ones) may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.Absolutely identical with Psalm 60:5; but with a change in the connection which give the words a somewhat different bearing.
Psalm 108:7
God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
Verses 7, 8. – God hath spoken, etc. Completely identical with Psalm 60:6, 7.
Psalm 108:8
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
Psalm 108:9
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
Verse 9. – Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I east out my shoe. Identical with the first two clauses of Psalm 60:8. Over Philistia will I triumph. In Psalm 60:8 the expression used is different. There we have, “Philistia, triumph thou over me,” or, “because of me.” Apparently the compiler has not understood David’s irony, and has therefore changed the form of the verb.
Psalm 108:10
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
Verse 10. – Who will bring me into the strong city? A slight change occurs here, מבצר taking the place of מצור, but there is no difference in the sense. Who will lead me into Edom? Identical with the last clause of Psalm 60:9.
Psalm 108:11
Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?
Verse 11. – Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts? Identical with Psalm 60:10, with the exception that there, in the first clause, “thou” is expressed by אתּה The meaning is probably that assigned in the Revised Version, “Hast not thou cast us off, O God? and thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts” (see the comment on Psalm 60:10).
Psalm 108:12
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
Verse 12. – Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man. Completely identical with Psalm 60:11.
Psalm 108:13
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
Verse 13. – Through God we shall do valiantly, etc. Also completely identical with Psalm 60:12.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
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.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ABUSED, MISSING, AND TRAFFICKED CHILDREN
BE MY VOICE
CHILD NOT CHOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER

all from a French builder
{ https://www.concept1900.com/merry-go-rounds/jules-verne-merry-go-round/ }
MAGNIFIQUE!
One more thing…
A bit of research shows that this Steampunk/ Venetian/ Traditional French carousel maker owns & operates in the formerly St. Gobain Glass Works property (which partly explains to me my visceral connection)…
St. Gobain Glass Works were the first commercial mass-makers of Augustine Fresnel’s exponential upgrade to lighthouse technology in the 1850s;
his novel & complex optical-quality lens configuration upgrade, which he invented in his mid 20s, saved the maritime shipping industry in France and around the world by improving lighthouses’ functional illumination distance exponentially. Another functional work of art…
Mr. Woodward lives near me & has very kindly educated me; he inspired me into the rabbit hole of Fresnel lens technology & history.
He is a National Treasure and his life as a lampist could & should be a 3hr. documentary; If I knew how I’d make it myself.
The photo is from this article titled ‘Jim Woodward’s Lasting Love of Lenses’
{ https://www.lighthousedigest.com/Digest/StoryPage.cfm?StoryKey=2018 }
It is with abundant chagrin that I must correct myself – I wrote from memory since my archive is inaccessible lately; I thought I knew this story by heart… and my memory has skewed the facts – how embarrassing;
this brilliant inventor was 32 years of age in 1820;
“… In his own words (and echoed by all who saw Fresnel’s demonstration in March of 1820 of his single lens panel), the members of the Commission of Lighthouses were, “dazzled by the spectacle I gave them.” The single panel worked so well that the chief commissioner immediately ordered a full apparatus be constructed of seven identically shaped and sized panels to be arranged in an octagon surrounding the light source.
Friday, April 13th, 1821 certainly could have been an inauspicious day to try out the eight-sided, new invention, especially one which disputed Newton’s laws, had it not been for the fact that the single test panel of the year before far out-shown all forms of reflectors.
Huge crowds of Parisians including the entire membership of the Commission of Lighthouses, as well as sailors, and curious citizens were gathered at opposite ends of the city, some at the Paris Observatory and some on the distant hills of Montemarte.
The event was staged as a competition between manufacturers of “new and improved” mirrored reflectors and Fresnel’s lens. Everyone in attendance marveled at the brilliance of the Fresnel lens.
The Argand type reflectors, dim in comparison that night, and in use in lighthouses world-wide, were now rendered completely obsolete.
(As a side note, European lighthouses were quick to adopt the Fresnel lens. Because of the politics involved, stubborn resistance to change, and costs, the United States Lighthouse Establishment continued using the Argand-Lewis Lamp reflector design for another twenty-five years despite the universal condemnation from American mariners who sailed to Europe, saw the lights, and traveled back home to the dismal light from American lighthouses.)
…
in the summer of 1823 that Augustin Jean Fresnel, despite deteriorating health, personally oversaw the installation of the first Fresnel lens in Cordouan’s lantern room. Lit for the first time on July 23, 1823, this First Order dioptric ushered in a whole new era in safety and navigation for ships. The lens produced an intensity of light far surpassing anything else ever seen, and could be seen some 17 miles out to sea.
In 1854, Fresnel’s first lens was removed and replaced by an updated Fresnel lens which is still in use today. The historic first Fresnel Lens is now safely on exhibit at The Mussee des Phares et Baluses on the Island of Quessant off the coast of Normandy.
In 1862, the Cordouan Lighthouse was designated as one of the first two buildings in France to be classified as a national historic monument. The other monument named that that year was the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris.
…”
Augustin Fresnel died of chronic consumption (tuberculous) at age 39; the year prior, he produced
“…another series of papers which would provide the framework for much of the Physics of the nineteenth century.
Honors from many countries including France’s own Legion of Honor came to him. Fresnel continued to directly supervise the construction of newer lenses and clockwork mechanisms.
Since the Fresnel Lens concept was so uniquely his, his personal involvement was necessary in travelling to many of existing lighthouses all along the coast of France.
The winter of 1826 saw his cough worsened and his lungs weakened….
He became more frail… and died on Bastille Day, 1827. His chief regret was that his illness and decline took him away from his sense of duty to France and Science. He wrote in the spring of 1827, “I could have wished to live longer, perhaps I might have had the happiness of finding the answers to some [more of these questions].”
The Basis for All Modern Optics
The Fresnel Lens is considered by many to be one of the major inventions of the 19th Century simply because it enabled lighthouses to function to the best of their ability, thus paving the way for safer shipping of goods manufactured during the Industrial Revolution.

He did not live to see the iteration of his original design technology pictured above.
My memory of 1850 being the mark that the US finally had adopted was acquiring Fresnel technology.
Hawaii has one of the few largest Fresnel lenses { hyperradiant Fresnel lens } ever built in the world; there is one larger designed, never built, that only exists on paper…
“The Makapuʻu Point Light on the island of Oʻahu has the largest lens of any lighthouse in the US…”

Obviously I need to verify the facts *before* I share enthusiastically about something historic.
I must remember that in future…
it’s just good to be clear.

MAHA!!!!
HallelujahJOY!!!
the UK now requires police to disclose whether they belong to the freemasonry.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/02/uk-judge-upholds-londons-met-police-rule-forcing/
can anyone give insight as to how this affects muzzle-ems?
Does UK want freemasons off the force to benefit muzzle-ems somehow??
in other words, I think most everything now skews to benefit them; we dont want to be islamist/racist, doncha know.
so somehow I suspect this ruling is anti-‘white’ or anti-Christian. but I am not sure…
why doesnt ruling demand the officers declare if they belong to antifa? Isis? CAIR?
Why freemasons?
slowcobra … the UK is ruled by Muslims and Muslim sympathizers now.
Check out this 1.5 minute video.
Note how many UK cities have Muslim mayors now:

yes, thank you ihyn… I am aware of that component of the muzzle-em takeover, and have seen david’s video before.
but I still am scratching my head on the connection regarding the freemasons, specifically.
are the muzzle-ems being helped by this ‘outing’ of freemasons…
Just seems a bit curious to me.
This is quite possibly the most horrific bill before the general assembly today…
The situation with Iran is getting very hot!
Khamenei the Supreme Leader of Iran is doing what psychotics do – suicide and taking everyone down with them.
He is issuing threats to sink American ships. The Iranians are dragging time at the negotiations but are not signaling that they will compromise.
There is an insane mobilization of even more Air Force assets of the US.
The Ford Strike fleet and Carrier is about 2-3 days away.
There may or may not be an attack on Iran but the news is the heat that is building up.
May the Good Lord shelter all the innocents who are in harm’s way
Amen.
Dinner!
It’s over 60 degrees outside with the sun shinning so for the first time this year I’m grilling. Ribeyes, baked sweet potatoes, and corn.
Sun shine is usually not the problem and usually 40+ degrees if the sun is shining, otherwise…..
just finished shoveling a foot of snow off the driveway. Record snowfall in the mountains, over 5 feet fell over the past 24 hours, more expected tomorrow. Enjoy the pause before the weather heads east. Also, jealous! 😄
For when you get tired of shoveling
The 4 day storm warning here thankfully missed hitting us, less than 1″ that has already melted for the most part and tapers off tonight.
haha!
Apparently the tapering off forecast was changed to 3-5 inches, just shoveled about 8 but I think a good deal of it blew off the roof, was a dusting of less than 1″ @ 2pm, at 5pm that’s what I had. SMH
More for Thur/Friday 3-7 then 2-4.
And this just came up in BB:
Didn’t say how much they got Tue overnight.

Prayer, contemplation from The Collects, for Ash Wednesday:
“Almighty and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made, and dost forgive the sins of all them that are penitent; create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that we worthily lamenting our sins, and acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.”
the keynote being Self-Examination
Prayer:
Grant, O Lord, to us, that we may begin this time of Lent with proper devotion and perseverance, with steadfastness, love and understanding. This we pray through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Amen
The Most High God and creator Yahweh/Jesus has revealed himself to us in many ways including the love & morality written on our hearts & minds; the proven history and true words of the Bible; and coming to earth himself in Jesus to offer us the tremendous gift of redemption and salvation for our eternal souls. He has done much more than enough to put the ball in our court and waits and wants for each of us to seek him in return. There is no need to fear relinquishing autonomy over our lives because he created us and knows which path is best for each of us. If you sincerely seek him, he will also give you the faith needed to establish and develop a personal relationship with him thereby bridging the supernatural gap. His offered gifts are completed only if and when you accept them, and his grace probably does not remain open after we die and could end at any time. Don’t wait to accept them to greatly benefit your life on earth and in the afterlife. Peace
EVENING PRAYERS
Prayer Of Thanksgiving In The Evening
Praise Your holy name Heavenly Father, for granting yet another day in my life and for being with me every step of the way. Thank You for the many blessings that You have provided and the love and fellowship that I have with the friends and family that in Your grace You have placed in my life.
My heart is so thankful for all the many blessings that I enjoy day by day, and today I am once again reminded that Your mercies are new every morning and Your faithfulness endures from generation to generation.
Thank You, that I have been brought into Your family and have been made a child of God and a citizen of heaven. Words cannot express my love and devotion to You Lord
I pray that You would watch over me as I rest tonight, and that You would give me a restful night’s sleep so that I may wake up in the morning refreshed in body and spirit and ready to do Your will. Guard all those that I love and may we all grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ in the days that lie ahead. This I ask in His precious name,
Amen.

Prayer Of Reflection On The Past Day
Loving Lord, as the day is coming to an end, I want to thank You for being with me in all that has taken place today. I also want to lay the whole day before You, asking that you would show me if there is anything that I have done to hurt or harm another person unknowingly, or if I have done anything that is displeasing in Your sight, or quenched the work of the Spirit in me, so that I may turn away from such things in the days that lie ahead.
Lord, I desire to do Your will in all things. I pray that You would cleanse me of any wrong thoughts or attitudes that may have surfaced in my heart today. Wash me in Your cleansing flood, I pray.
Thank You, that You are a God who forgives our transgressions when we are willing to confess them to You, knowing that such cleansing before You immediately draws us back into sweet fellowship with Yourself.
Give me a good night’s rest I pray, and may I rest quietly in Your loving arms in the knowledge that in Christ, I am eternally secure, due to Your amazing grace, for which I praise You. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Evening Prayer For Forgiveness
Heavenly Father, thank You for bringing me through this day and Lord, forgive me for the times when I have wandered outside Your best will for me, instead of trusting You implicitly.
Thank You, that You are such a gracious Shepherd to me and that You come and rescue me even when I lose my way and stray from the path that You have laid out for me.
As I look back over today, I know Lord that there were things that I should have said and done differently, and times when I reacted in a manner that was not honouring Your holy name. Forgive me I pray, but thank You, Father, that You always faithfully prepared to gently bring me back to Yourself.
Give me a good night’s sleep I pray, knowing that there is no condemnation because I am in Christ, and may I wake up in the morning refreshed and ready to do Your will. In Jesus’ name I pray,
Amen.
