Ephesians Week 6

 Ephesians 5   5  1  Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children   2  and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. 3  But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.   4  Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.   5  For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. [ a ]   6  Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient.   7  Therefore do not be partners with them. 8  For you were once darkness, but now you are light i...

Never too old to learn things...

-
This week I learned that you have to smash an apple BEFORE you feed it to a horse.  They aren't capable of grinding big pieces.    Thankfully I learned that BEFORE any horse choked. :)  I learned that some race horses are all white...after I walked  HUGE Jester to the arena.

 ( I thought they were all black or brown).  I learned that few police horses  have a retirement plan; they are generally destroyed/ put down.... few are rescued and live out a normal horse life.  (So glad Haze is one of them)

 I learned that Tebow isn't a full sized- horse, but a pony.   Go back a couple of "updates" and you can read about him.   http://inhonoroftheking.blogspot.com/view/timeslide#!/2012/01/blog-post.html


 I learned that Stallions aren't nearly as laid back as their "fixed" counterparts... No pun intended. (Although Jackson was a pretty laid back before he was gelded).   I learned that a horse will bite you ...just because she thinks you should talk to her.

I learned that boys are great at making life-sized mazes when given permission to turn over furniture. 


I learned that John-Michael is picking up more and more environmental print.  Yesterday, he said,"Look...they think I am the bathroom"... because the sign was pointing straight at him.


I learned that some girls  just like playing in the mud... even if they are generally prissy.

Why does God call us sheep?

Before you jump to the conclusion that I am saying Christian are "brainless" sheep, read this post completely.  If you still aren't sure, read this post:  Are Christians brainless? Why does He call us SHEEP? ( The Bible makes reference to sheep no less than 220 times).   A few of the more notable passages that come to mind are the 23 rd Psalm, Isa. 53:6 and John 10.  There are many references to His People being sheep. So why not something more powerful, like a ram or horse? Why not something more graceful and valued, like a prized bird? Well, God chose to use the word sheep to identify His followers, as we are "His sheep." Our shepherd, Jesus, is leading the way, so let's look at the facts about sheep-the  nature of  sheep.  Let's look at the facts about sheep- *Sheep aren’t intelligent . Sheep are not known to be smart or cunning animals when it comes to safety; rather, they are susceptible and tend to wander away from the pro...

Rayman Rabbids Cake- 1/2 Birthday celebration

-
Image
At a certain age... I suppose 18 or so... half-birthdays are no longer as important to you as when you are young.  Right now, the kids love having their 1/2 birthdays celebrated.  We don't do much. We tell them "Happy half-birthday!"... and they are allowed to choose what we have for dinner (within reason... no  super expensive choices .. like crab legs or sushi).  And, they do get to have a  cake.   John-Michael is 8 1/2 today. I haven't had any of my children ask for a character-cake in quite some time...until last night.  We were out very late watching the laser light show at Stone Mountain Park.  A few hours before... John-Michael springs on me that he wants a Rayman Rabbids cake for his half-birthday.  Now, I have church in the morning and knew I wouldn't get home before midnight last night... not much time to figure our how to make that kind of cake.  So, like most things...I just went for it.   I bought Twinkies ...pretty...
