  GOD MOMENT: On my walk yesterday, I came across a large puddle where the top layer had frozen into a sheet of clear glass. Underneath the surface, a few large air bubbles danced around to the movement of my feet. The air had no where to go to escape. And, as I do, I made a correlation between this and the Gospel. The bubble reminded me of sin in our lives, trapped under the surface with no way to get rid of it. Except one. THE One. Jesus is the only One who can break that surface and release our sins, because He is the only one who was righteous enough to die for our sins. To take our place. Our punishment. So when you choose to ask Him into your heart, to forgive your sins, and to follow Him, that ice shatters and the bubble of sin vanishes. And that sheet of ice keeping you from God? It's no longer there. You have a direct line to Him. Praise God. Praise Jesus for this! Keep the faith and God bless you!

  The Case of the Bereaved Butler   by Cathy Ace  The Duke of Chellingworth’s beloved butler is grieving his brother’s death…but was it a really a tragic accident, or was it – as the man’s widow believes – murder? Mavis and the dowager Althea offer the services of the WISE Enquiries Agency to investigate, which puts one of their team in a dangerous situation. Meanwhile, Annie and Tudor are puzzled by a spate of petty thefts at their new pub, and Alexander must confront his largely secret past – possibly endangering his new persona and his relationship with Christine…who has a secret of her own.  Available on Amazon  Click  Here Caught Bread Handed  by London Lovett  Scottie Ramone couldn’t be happier with the way things are going in her new bakery.

Scottie is still confused about her f...

  Well my week hasn't gone as planned!  My new tiny house uses propane for cooking and heat.   I tried my stove on Wednesday and it did not work.  But I had frozen veggies and a microwave!  We discovered the next morning the propane bottle was gone.  But my friends who I am buying my house from had an extra one.  I am back in business now with plans to cook . . .  My original plan was to make meat loaf but I forgot to buy eggs!  But tonight I will cook up the ground beef with some onions and red bell pepper.  And I will cook some rice too.   I am getting hungry thinking about it!  Maybe in a few months I will get some of these!

  Life with a Dog Have you ever tried to take a photo of your dog wearing a sheet pretending to be a Ghost for Halloween? Almost as hard as taking a photo of a toddler that seems to never stop moving! Now don't get me wrong here, I am not a big Halloween fan and that is a different post; but a couple of years ago I was taking photo's in the yard and just came up with the idea to illustrate this verse . . .   And she cooperated perfectly. I had started taking the photo's to show off my late blooming zinnia's but I loved illustrating this great verse.  In case you haven't met her this is my dog Daisy. She can be easily described as a velcro dog. She is usually touching me. No matter if I am sitting or walking she is normally against my leg or within touching distance; right now as I type she is lying next to my chair facing me and watching me as I type.  I have heard people say that when you rescue a dog from the pound that they are even more devoted. And I t...
