A Monkey, or better... a Barbar Macaque, is looking at his surroundings. Tons of people have gathered again alongside the walls that border his grounds. A couple of young boys are out and about, yelling and screaming like they just dont care. The monkey sees them, takes a bite from his apple and just keeps sitting there. One of the boys yelles at him, saying things like "Hey, stupid monkey, jump for me!"
But the Monkey wont budge. He just keeps calm and stares at them. The boys are starting to jump in anger and trow twigs and pebbles in his general direction. Non of them hit their mark.
"That damned monekey doesnt do anything!" They yell with red cheecks and mean looking eyes.
After a while, the boys leave with anger and frustration in their hearts... But the Monkey... well... He made them jump without even uttering one, single, word... and takes another bite from his apple with bliss in his heart.
So... who's the stupid monkey now?

Dear friend, here are 5 things you should know:
1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)
2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)
3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)
4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)
5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)
Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!
Sincerely,
Someone who cares about you
Epcot's Spaceship Earth dialog: " And to the left we see a Jewish wise man studying in a great library".
In my wildest dreams I never thought
I would be the person I have become
Just the quiet little mouse I used to be
Now become a warrior woman fighting
For what she thinks is hers by right
The chance to live each day in peace
Serene and wise maybe I would be
But first comes the battleground
Long ago I was so scared of life
Now I grab it by the throat tightly
And face all it brings me head on
I'm not afraid of anything anymore
Not even time itself can phase me
The new day brings its challenges
I smile and take a step with hope
Nothing more will ever beat me

Garden sculpture of an owl. The owl is the mascot of Temple University, where I went to med school with Hippocrates.
Day 156 of my 366 Project
This is the Harbor Freight Tools hardware store located at 129 Ridgeview Road located in the Ridgeview Shopping Center in Wise, VA. It opened in part of the former Kmart in fall 2016; interestingly, in order to open this store, the old garden shop structure was taken down.

A wise old owl lived in an oak
The more he saw the less he spoke
The less he spoke the more he heard....
...Imagine That ?!...:D
A wise old owl lived in an oak

Why can't we all be like that wise old bird?
Whenever I see owls, I think of this fun quote. This owl was difficult to spot he was so quiet and still hiding behind the branches of the tree. I had to give it my best effort. Hope you like my peek-a-boo shot.
