In no particular order, here are some of my recent faves of my three main reasons for blogging...along with some of my recent favorites from the Psalms:
"Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth." Psalm 46:10
"The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise." Psalm 51:17
"Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;" Psalm 55:2. Okay, so the other morning I was reading that particular chapter and I was fairly cranky. These are the words that my eyes saw "Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn, I complain, I make noise." Seriously. I read it again and realized what it actually said. And I attempted to snap out of it.
"Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God." Psalm 43:5
"From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee,
when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy." Psalm 61:2, 3
"O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come." Psalm 65:2
(The blonde is not mine. But my Nory Pory seems to think she is part of his family. She loudly proclaims him to be her "Buddy"!)
"Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me." Psalm 66:20
"Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth." Psalm 46:10
"The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise." Psalm 51:17

Man, your kids are getting so big! And so cute. :) Aren't the Psalms so real and fitting sometimes?
Thanks SO much for posting these little dears. It's been too many months since we saw them and they're changing. Hope I can wait until Thanksgiving DV.
Cute kid shots. Am I wrong, or does the blonde look like a Whitaker? I am convicted by the complain and make noise verse a lot!
They are so cute, what a great collection of pictures, and verses. Lovely.
This was a great visit. The verses seemed so appropriate! Thanks so much. I shall be returning to this post again and again.
