Very territorial little Lizard. He spotted me a long way off and ran to confront me. Immediately challenge me to a contest of pushups. He did about 45 or more in just a few seconds. I said "Okay Pal, you win. No contest." Feeling superior now, he hopped up on a rock about 6 feet away, and proceeded to challenge me once again, but this time did about 75, and waited for a response. I straightaway turned and walked away, in absolute defeat.
----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

Confronting nuclear states, snap elections, what next?
We are just about to start Wednesday downunder but up north things are jumbled it seems. Best of luck with that but you wonder why a US news anchors is buying a farm in NZ. Do they know something?
Confronting a Personal Gatekeeper
In my mind, there is a gatekeeper that prevents me by holding me back from taking action. My personal gatekeeper keeps me from trying something new and keeps accomplishments out of reach.

We came around the bend and were confronted by three giraffe walking down the road. You can see why they recommend travelling at 25 kph on Kruger roads.

La Fosse et le puits, ouvrages hydrauliques, ont été construits vers 1730 pour approvisionner en haut les habitants du village situé sur un plateau sec. Les gens étaient confrontés à une pénurie d'eau et chaque famille devait avoir sa citerne. Les lavandières venaient laver le linge à la fosse sur des pierres à lessive dont certaines subsistent encore. Le puits qui a toujours été à sec est en restauration ainsi que la fosse grâce à la Fondation du Patrimoine.
Vous êtes les bienvenus ;-)
out and having it confronted with the world, still on at Nitroglobus Roof Gallery, courtesy of its thoughtful curator, Dido Haas, meanwhile with the critical attention too:

I can't thank you enough, guys.
Confronting theme! Being a nurse and a mom, i value my health highly, ... but yet i have to admit i don't drink enough water, i hardly eat vegetables and fruit, i hate sports, stay up too late, go in the sun without protection ...
Monday is a good day to make a change and start eating more fruit ... cause i do cherish my health!
Gatotkaca confronts Karna, the owner of the Kontawijaya weapon. He created a thousand twins of himself, making Karna feel confused. On Batara Surya's instructions, Karna managed to find the real Gatotkaca. He then fired his Konta weapon at Gatotkaca. Gatotkaca tried to avoid it by flying as high as possible. However, Kalabendana's spirit suddenly appeared to catch Kontawijaya while delivering news from heaven that Gatotkaca's death had been determined that night. Gatotkaca, who resigned himself to his fate, advised that his corpse could be used to kill enemies. Kalabendana agreed, then stabbed Gatotkaca's navel using a Konta weapon. The heirloom merged with the scabbard, namely the mastaba wood which was still stored in Gatotkaca's stomach. After Gatotkaca died, Kalabendana's spirit threw his body at Karna. Because he managed to jump and escape death. However, the train was shattered into pieces by Gatotkaca's body. The fragments of the train shot in all directions and killed the Korawa soldiers around it.
Opening the front door to commence my walk, I was confronted with this rather exceptional display of Jack's craft covering the entirety of my full length storm door window. Needless to say, I stopped to take a number of photos, not really knowing on which section to focus. And after spending an inordinate amount of time trying to decide, I still don't. Thus, this is what you get. I was going to do a series of additional views of different sections in comments, but frustration defeated interest. (Some of you may know the feeling.) Suffice it to say that it was a uniquely well defined and impressive effect, diminishing and vanishing rather quickly as the heat from inside impacted the ideal conditions which had formed it.
[Larger, of course, shows the delicate detail more effectively]
At the end of the trail and main overlook with the Lost Mine Trail. The view is looking to the south, using some nearby rocky landscape to create a more layered image that has a look beyond at more distant ridgelines and peaks in this part of Big Bend National Park. My thinking in composing this image was to pull back on the focal length and then walk around until I could create that layered view with the varied landscape to my front. The blue skies and clouds above would be the color contrast to complement the earth-tones in the lower portion of the image.
Prayer Before An Election
Lord God, as the election approaches,
we seek to better understand the issues and concerns that confront our city/state/country,
and how the Gospel compels us to respond as faithful citizens in our community.
We ask for eyes that are free from blindness
so that we might see each other as brothers and sisters,
one and equal in dignity,
especially those who are victims of abuse and violence, deceit and poverty.
We ask for ears that will hear the cries of children unborn and those abandoned,
Men and women oppressed because of race or creed, religion or gender.
We ask for minds and hearts that are open to hearing the voice of leaders who will bring us closer to your Kingdom.
We pray for discernment
so that we may choose leaders who hear your Word,
live your love,
and keep in the ways of your truth
as they follow in the steps of Jesus and his Apostles
and guide us to your Kingdom of justice and peace.
We ask this in the name of your Son Jesus Christ and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

In confronto al Regionale, in cui stamattina si era tutti ammassati,un po' tipo carro bestiame, l'Intercity è un'altra cosa : comode poltrone, finestrini puliti, e sembra che corra. Così è anche piacevole viaggiare. Anche perché di sera è quasi completamente vuoto.

"You confront me."
"I thought you wanted me to. I mean I thought I was doing what you wanted me to. You... you know and... and... and we don't even have to. My cab is ready. I can just leave and we can always meet later. Just, just call. OK? I'm staying with Phil. You have his number, don't you? You do. You do. Call and we'll meet... where... wherever... you want. It's really all up to you. That might even be better. Anything. I... I... I don't know. I... I... I don't, I don't mind really. Whatever. I mean you call and let me know. I'll stay with Phil a few days. I'll let you know... where... where I'd go after. You want me to. Right? I mean I know, I know you want that. That's what we need. That's what we should do. Hey, what do you say? Huh? Isn't that better? I thought we'd go out for lunch today but that's all right. You stay in. Do whatever and we'll meet again. Just call, just..."
"You confront me not I. That's why it disturbs. It's just that."

There's a corner of Brussels where all styles, all times and all people rub shoulders. As I strolled through the Marolles district, eager to test my new lens, a Sigma ART f1.4 50mm, this second-hand shop window caught my eye. In the store, time is suspended, ethereal, old and bygone, but not that old... it inspired this shot.
Il existe à Bruxelles un coin où se côtoient tous les styles, tous les temps, toutes les personnes. En déambulant dans les Marolles, nom de ce quartier, impatient de tester mon nouvel objectif, un Sigma ART f1,4 50mm, cette vitrine d’un brocanteur a attiré mon regard. Dans le magasin le temps est suspendu, éthéré, vieux et passé, mais pas autant que cela… ça m’a inspiré ce cliché.
