“At present we are on the outside of the world, the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the splendours we see. But all the leaves of the New Testament are rustling with the rumour that it will not always be so. Some day, God willing, we shall get in."           c.s. Lewis

Friendship doubles our joy and divides our grief.-- Swedish proverb .

This photo was taken by Kara our granddaughter this morning at daylight....God's blessings are new every morning!

"If you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

Roald Dahl

"

The man who has God for his treasure has all things in One. Many ordinary treasures may be denied him, or if he is allowed to have them, the enjoyment of them will be so tempered that they will never be necessary to his happiness. Or if he must see them go, one after one, he will scarcely feel a sense of loss, for having the Source of all things he has in One all satisfaction, all pleasure, all delight.

Here is a true friend who happens to be crazy about chasing squirrels! His name is Rocky.

 The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a
porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away
feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
