Hate is mild here...

Mittens hatez Dawg!!! So, I think we have gained some trust, don't you? Or else she has literally 'phifffed' him into submission. That's all she ever does...'phiff'! She has never, as far as I know that is, clawed or bit him. I think she has her bluff in on him...he could tear her apart if he wanted.

I think that's how the enemy is with me. He's got his bluff in on me and all he has the power to do is 'phiff' and then I cringe! Grrrrr, that makes me burn with holy anger :-/ I am more than a conquerer in Christ Jesus! I have authority to rip him to shreds! The enemy hatez us and wants to intimidate us! Let's stop lettin' him! "Faith is unutterable trust in God, trust which never dreams that He will not stand by us." Oswald Chambers

Wow, i need to edge and mow :~)

My Utmost

Matthew 6:5-6

I'm a hypocrit! My prayers in the presence of others are huge. But, alone is a whole 'nother story. Lord, forgive me. And then there is my prayer journal--it's easier praying in there than the 'in-the-closet-kind'. I'd like to use the excuse of "wool-gathering", but is that really the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help me God? Or, is it possible that others may see it someday? Ugh! I'm still a hypocrit! Lord, forgive me.

The closet thing is an issue for me or dare I say prayerlessness is an issue for me. An area that I wish to improve. Oswald Chambers says it is an effort of will, difficult, a battle, work...help, Lord!

They flock...

Kaden and Dad came by for a visit. In an effort to spend some energy...

Kent, Dad and I took turns riding bikes with Kaden. And I might add...the bike DID NOT have a tractor seat which is the only way I wanna go from now on. We finally wore smooth out and the neighborhood kids came to the rescue. Amazing how they flock to the scene and seem to literally come out of nowhere??? Whew!
