"Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial,

because when he has stood the test,

he will receive the crown of life that God has promised

to those who love him."

"Rich and poor have this in common:

The Lord is the maker of them all."

Proverbs 22: 2, NIV

Sunday Wisdom

"Be imitators of God,

therefore, as dearly loved children

and live a life of love,

just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us

as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God."

Ephesians 5: 1-2, NIV

He is Risen!

"The angel said to the women,

"Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.

Come and see the place where he lay.

Then go quickly and tell his disciples:

'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee.

There you will see him.'

Now I have told you."

Matthew 28: 5-7, NIV

Lavender, Lace, and Lizzards

Ahhh...spring!

The lovely fragrance of lavender scenting the air with its deep violet petals glowing in the spring sunlight...

but there is something lurking beneath...

lizzards!

But not to worry because Lizzy is on the hunt!

First she sniffs them out,

 then she watches for movement.

The lizzard seems to have scurried to the nearby potted plants so the sniffing begins again...

 followed by a quick side glance for movement.

Wait!

There's something beneath the ivy!

Stay calm, watch for it,

and then...

POUNCE!

Gotcha!

or not.

 While Lizzie continues her lizzard hunt let's look at the lace part of the post:).

Last weekend was the Battle of Charleston.

We all wore our new dresses to the event:).

After some shopping it was time to join the other ladies for tea.

We enjoyed a fine day with friends.

As we left in our horseless carriage we noticed a bit of an anomoly for the era.

Somehow this excessively long carriage managed to get itself stuck on the dirt hump in the road.

(notice the hoop skirted ladies to the right-they were as astonished as we were:).

 This is a predicament.

In the meantime Lizzie is still hunting lizzards by the straw bale...

the old flower pot...

and the empty flower pot.

I think Lizzie spent too much time in the heat looking for lizzards!

Now she's just laying in the sun laughing!

 

I guess that's 'the end' of this post:).
