Week 8 in 52 Weeks for Dogs

 

Taivas is well used to my whims for her photo each week but she did find this one tried her patience. She adopted the 'if I don't look at them I won't eat them' attitude. Even so, I had to replace a cookie during the photo shoot when temptation got the better of her.

Thanksgiving Rainy Sunday Lunchtime, Clearly My Dogs Get More Steak Meat Than I Do! - IMRAN™

I love eating but I don’t cook and have zero interest in cooking. Throwing a filet mignon or some burgers on the grill, or air frying a salmon filet, or throwing a large piece of meat with spices & veggies in a 24-hours slow cooker, or making southwestern chicken fiesta zesty scrambled eggs are about all that I can do.

Even one of these options I won’t do more than once in a month maybe. However, Thanksgiving weekend Sunday, with rain outside, seemed like a good day to dine in. I decided to have a steak meal with my awesome German Shepherd Dogs.

I love their self-control and discipline even when they know what’s on the kitchen counter. Good boys. Clearly they get much more steak meat than I do. 😃 Well-deserved, don’t you think?

You call me out upon the waters

The great unknown where feet may fail

And there I find You in the mystery

In oceans deep

My faith will stand

 

I will call upon Your name

And keep my eyes above the waves

When oceans rise my soul will rest in your embrace

For I am Yours and You are mine

 

Your grace abounds in deepest waters

Your sovereign hand

Will be my guide

Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me

You've never failed and you won't start now

 

So I will call upon Your name

And keep my eyes above the waves

 

When oceans rise

My soul will rest in your embrace

For I am Yours and You are mine

 

Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders

Let me walk upon the waters

Wherever You would call me

Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander

And my faith will be made stronger

In the presence of my Savior

 

I will call upon Your Name

Keep my eyes above the waves

My soul will rest in Your embrace

I am Yours and You are mine

 

704. "What Are You Thinking?" We all wonder what are dogs are thinking about from time to time. Other times, we know what's on their minds. Take a photo today that lets us know what's on your dog's mind. Remember to have fun with it!

 

I am SURE Spanky is thinking......."Mama, please say,'Get it'.......pleeeeeeze!"

 

Spanky is such a fast learner. He is doing a great job at sitting still with the bone on his nose 'till I say, "Get it!"

 

Let Everything Praise the LORD

150 Praise the LORD!

Praise God in his sanctuary;

praise him in his mighty heavens!

2 Praise him for his mighty deeds;

praise him according to his excellent greatness!

 

3 Praise him with qtrumpet sound;

praise him with flute and harp!

4 Praise him with tambourine and dance;

praise him with strings and pipe!

5 Praise him with sounding cymbals;

praise him with loud clashing cymbals!

6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD!

Praise the LORD!

 

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Ps 150:1–6.

Abide With Me - Matt Redman

 

www.youtube.com/watch?v=476_PgSf2jQ

 

VERSE

I have a home

Eternal home

But for now I walk this broken world

You walked it first

You know our pain

But You show hope can rise again up from the grave

 

CHORUS

Abide with me

Abide with me

Don't let me fall

And don't let go

Walk with me

And never leave

Ever close God abide with me

 

VERSE

There in the night

Gethsemane

Before the cross

Before the nails

Overwhelmed

Alone You prayed

You met us in our suffering and bore our shame

 

BRIDGE

O love that will not ever let me go

Love that will not ever let me go

You never let me go

Love that will not ever let me go

 

VERSE

And up ahead

Eternity

We'll weep no more and sing for joy

Abide with me

We'll weep no more and sing for joy

Abide with me

 

 

Restore us again, O God of our salvation,

and put away your indignation toward us!

5 Will you be angry with us forever?

Will you prolong your anger to all generations?

6 Will you not revive us again,

that your people may rejoice in you?

7 Show us your steadfast love, O LORD,

and grant us your salvation.

 

8 Let me hear what God the LORD will speak,

for he will speak peace to his people, to his saints;

but let them not turn back to folly.

9 Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him,

that glory may dwell in our land.

 

10 Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;

righteousness and peace kiss each other.

11 Faithfulness springs up from the ground,

and righteousness looks down from the sky.

12 Yes, fthe LORD will give what is good,

and our land will yield its increase.

13 Righteousness will go before him

and make his footsteps a way.

Born November 7, 1913: January 4, 1960 Died

 

As a remedy to life in society I would suggest the big city. Nowadays, it is the only desert within our means.

 

At 30 a man should know himself like the palm of his hand, know the exact number of his defects and qualities, know how far he can go, foretell his failures - be what he is. And, above all, accept these things.

 

At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.

(In Memory of Milo 2012)

  

4 One thing have I asked of the LORD,

that will I seek after:

that I may dwell in the house of the LORD

all the days of my life,

to gaze upon othe beauty of the LORD

and to inquire in his temple.

 

5 For he will hide me in his shelter

in the day of trouble;

he will conceal me under the cover of his tent;

he will qlift me high upon a rock.

 

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Ps 27:4–5.

Lord, I want to live a life of godliness, will you help me to fear You, to deepen my understanding of Your love and heighten my desire for Your fellowship!

I pray all this in Jesus name, Amen

The Lord GOD Will Seek Them Out

 

11 “For thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I, I myself will search for my sheep and will seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock when he is among his sheep that have been scattered, so will I seek out my sheep, and I will rescue them from all places where they have been scattered on a day of clouds and thick darkness. 13 And I will bring them out from the peoples aand gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land. And I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the ravines, and in all the inhabited places of the country. 14 I will feed them with good pasture, and on the mountain heights of Israel shall be their grazing land. There they shall lie down in good grazing and, and on rich pasture they shall feed on the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Lord GOD. 16 I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak, and the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them in justice.

 

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Eze 34:11–16.

It is not easy to stand out, is it? I remember times when I woudn't raise my hand to ask a question or speak up. I didn't do it because I was afraid I was going to sound stupid and I was concerned what others thought of me. Haven't we all been afraid to stand out? I just try to remember that there is no one else like me and that's okay. #success #professional #attitude #different #standout #confidence #work #personalresponsibility #feelings #selfcontrol #emotions #kindness #smart #photography #365photochallenge #365project #project365 #365_today #Project365 #camera #365photos #photos #daily #dailypics

6 So we can confidently say,

 

“The Lord is my helper;

I will not fear;

what can man do to me?”

 

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Heb 13:6.

(Hurley: Lab)

 

Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause

against an ungodly people,

from tthe deceitful and unjust man

deliver me!

2 For you are the God in whom I take refuge;

why have you rejected me?

Why do I go about mourning

because of the oppression of the enemy?

 

3 Send out your light and your truth;

let them lead me;

let them bring me to your holy hill

and to your dwelling!

4 Then I will go to the altar of God,

to God my exceeding joy,

and I will praise you with the lyre,

O God, my God.

 

5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,

and why are you in turmoil within me?

Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,

my salvation and my God.

 

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Ps 43:1–5.

Hebrews 9:27–28 (ESV)

27 And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, 28 so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

 

Invasione aliena.

Psalm 33:18

18 Behold, ethe eye of the LORD is on those who fear him,

fon those who hope in his steadfast love,

  

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), Ps 33:18. The Psalms present the same picture. It is the comfort of Israel that “the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear Him, … to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine (Ps. 33:18, 19). An answer rings out to the cry of the righteous, and there is a comforting correlation between the walk in His fear and the divine answer for today and the future (cf. Ps. 34:3–7; Ps. 84:2, 3; Ps. 94:14; Ps. 146). This connection may be summarized: “Commit thy way unto Jehovah. Trust also in Him … He will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy justice as the noonday” (Ps. 37:5, 6).

 

G. C. Berkouwer, Faith and Justification (Studies in Dogmatics; Grand Rapids: W. B. Eerdmans Pub. Co., 1954), 114–115.

9 We must not put Christ to the test, as some of them did and were destroyed by serpents, 10 nor grumble, as some of them did and were destroyed by the Destroyer. 11 Now these things happened to them as an example, but tthey were written down for our instruction, on whom the end of the ages has come. 12 Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall. 13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

 

The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton: Standard Bible Society, 2001), 1 Co 10:9–13.

It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end.

The Way of Love

 

13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it his not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For pnow we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
