I have always regretted the 30years I wasted as an Atheist after being deceived that I came from an Ape when I was a young Teenager, of course God showed me why that was impossible when I became a Christian (see link below) but at the time I believed it and messed up my life big time believing there was no consequences for the wrong I did, if it made me happy who cares.
No Missing Link- https://freedomborn.wordpress.com/2015/10/03/wow-a-new-missing-link-has-been-found/
Tonight I was reading a Post Debbie gave me the link for it’s about her favorite Parable and her message has touched my heart greatly and has given me much Joy, yes I knew I was forgiven but I could have been serving my Abba Father all those wasted years, I felt I had cheated Him, but after reading Debbie’s Message, Wow!

I am getting to know that parable myself and enjoyed your post. I just wrote a prayer of thanks today still catching my bearings but I got something done will get to a bit more tomorrow. A long way to go yet.

Good that you have Bj, you need to give time for your body to heal fully and not force yourself to do things that can wait or you will find you won’t be able to do the things that are needed.
Keeping you in Prayer one day at a time, everyday.

Annie… That passage (and parable) has always been a source of joy for me too. It reminds us of the guilt, regrets, and shame that Jesus removed at the cross!
Now, as for the picture of me. It almost looks like I am worshiping God, rather than showing the height of our cherry tomato plants this summer. (You are very clever to pull that out of my post and include on your blog! :))

Debbie my dear Blogging friend, the Picture is how I see you, reaching up to God and rejoicing in Him and not in the things of this world, although you do always recognize and give thanks for His blessings and you can see them because your Spiritual eyes are open.
Also Debbie not far from the top of the Cherry Tomato Plants, which are part of God’s awesome Creation for us to enjoy, is His hand reaching down to you, He delights in you and sings over you, YOU ARE HIS CHERISHED CHILD.

Annie, I will never see that picture the same way again! Thank you for my blessing.
Your words reminded me of one of my (“million” 🙂 ) favorite verses. Zephaniah 3:17, – The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.

Bless you my dear friend , you have such a beautiful heart but just as well it is not me Singing over you, I’m sure you would never pick tomatoes again.
Seriously Debbie, your words have touched my heart more than once before and I do not doubt that it is The Holy Spirit.

Thank you Caleb for responding to both Posts, WordPress did not show the first Post on Reader and also the graphics on this one, so I Posted it with Debbie’s Link this time, no wonder people are reluctant to Reblog and also give up Posting.
Debbie like you Caleb is a very dear Blogging friend, I love her focus, she is very clever using allegories to highlight God’s Truth in everyday situations, we do have Technology problems but I’m so thankful our paths crossed the same as I am with you, you both have very Loving and Caring hearts.
