Sadly that is not my cat and dog. I just found the picture and loved it.
Your kittens look delightful

They are delightful and great company.

"Bad dog"

It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me.
"Is that a dog you got back there?" he asked.
"It sure is," I replied.
Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, "What'd he do?"

When you're prepared, spiritually, mentally, and physically, you have nothing to fear.

Can you sleep when the wind blows through your life?

The hired hand in the story was able to sleep because he had secured the farm against the storm.

We secure ourselves against the storms of life by grounding ourselves in the Word of God.

We don't need to understand, we just need to hold His hand to have peace in the middle of storms.

This is just what I need to hear at this time. I am in the process of grounding myself in the Word of God. I don't need to understand, I just need to trust that He will hold my hand and give me peace about the things I don't understand - yet. Thanx, Bonnie

Amen Bonnie,

Thanks for that as you have also given me insight about things that I also am praying about in my life and as we all grow together in this new year ... let the peace of God that passes all understanding be our hope for the future cause we do have a hope and a future.in Him.

In our church this month that is exactly what our pastor is emphasizing being gounded in the Word. and Iam trusting the Lord for new things this year. I have to get out of my boat of comfort and launch into what He has for me.

You are a blessing my dear and continue to dig deeper.... seek Him and you will be satified.

Aging gracefully"

Mickey's wife bought a new line of expensive cosmetics guaranteed to make her look years younger. After a lengthy sitting before the mirror applying the "miracle" products, she asked, "Darling, honestly, what age would you say I am?"
Looking over her carefully, Mickey replied, "Judging from your skin, twenty; your hair, eighteen; and your figure, twenty five."
"Oh, you flatterer!" she gushed.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Mickey interrupted. "I haven't added them up yet."

"Amen, Preacher"

A preacher was completing a temperance sermon: with great expression he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river!" The congregation nodded their approval. With even greater emphasis he added, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river, too!" The people clapped and were saying "Amen." And then finally, he concluded, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river!"
As he sat down, the song leader then stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, "For our closing song, let us sing Hymn #365: "Shall We Gather at the River."

Modern art"

A tiny but dignified old lady was among a group looking at an art exhibition in a newly opened gallery. Suddenly one contemporary painting caught her eye. "What on earth," she inquired of the artist standing nearby, "is that?" He smiled condescendingly. "That, my dear lady, is supposed to be a mother and her child."
"Well, then," snapped the little old lady, "why isn't it?"

A preacher was really belting it out and preaching at full tilt. Spying a man sleeping in the front row next to a deacon he shouted " deacon wake that man up"! To which the deacon relied " you wake him up, you put him to sleep"!
