Reflection!

Good morning~
It's a pretty morning and I'm sitting here having my coffee and looking out the window. The sun is streaming in and lighting up the front room with its wondrous light.
The window looks so pretty with the geranium and little birdie sitting in it with the sun coming in at just the right angle.
We had a heavy frost last night and you wouldn't know it to look outside but it's quite chilly out there. Hubby had put the pellet stove on this morning before he left for work and it is taking the chill off. I love mornings like this when it's quiet and sunny and the phone doesn't ring!

We had Bible Study last night and Hubby is teaching on Walking with God.
God's desire is that we might "walk with Him". Many times people think that to be a Christian means that "God walks with me" - in other words, wherever I go, God goes. But we are called to align our lives to the life of God, not the other way around. We walk with God.
It is a choice we make. We are not puppets that are controlled by the strings that God pulls to make us do whatever He wants; we have been given the choice to walk with Him or not.
I choose to walk with Him. How about you?
"He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." Micah 6:8
Have a wonderful day everyone.

REDnesday

Hello everyone~ Today is Wednesday and I'm joining Sue at It's A Very Cherry World for REDnesday once again. Sue loves cherries and she loves the colour red so if you also love red, why not come along and take part in this RED meme?

How about a bowl full of cherries cookie jar?

Friends of my family had a big cherry tree in their front yard when I was a little girl. I used to pluck them off the tree and plop them into my mouth. Oh, were they ever good!

Are hungry? Would you care for a piece of Cherry pie? Mmmmm!

Next is my Pooh doll. She comes wearing her own hooded Pooh sleepers and the sleepers are the same colour as Pooh himself. The sleepers hood has ears on it and she holds her own Pooh bear. Isn't she cute? Well, those are my reds for today. Thanks for stopping by & please take some time to go visit Sue at http://suelovescherries.blogspot.com/ and the other REDnesday participants. Better still, why not join in? Everybody has a little red somewhere! Have a wonderful day everybody!
