Hello friends and Happy Sunday! We had our first snowfall of the season last night. Did you get any white stuff by you? The picture on this post is a view of our front yard. Note the cat footprints and probably deer too. 💕😁I didn't do the best job in taking it as it's quite cold and windy outside, so I ran out quickly and right back in. I kick myself for not getting a picture early this morning when the snow was on the bright red pear tree. It was so beautiful but has since melted.
I did purchase the Windsor tree from Lowes that I talked about in last week's community post. If you watched my coffee / hot cocoa bar" video that I posted yesterday, you may have seen both my new tree and my new kitty in it. Sidenote- I am happy with both of them. 😁 The only trouble is that my Petunia kitty's favorite game seems to be "how many ornaments can I knock down off the tree." I counted 10 on the ground when I woke up this morning. Amazingly she hasn't broken any of them yet. I really thought I had done a better job of securing them into the tree. But she's a feisty little one. I always tell her that it's a good thing she's so cute. Lol.
I am sad that my Chase kitty hasn't returned, but I am enjoying her so much. I weighed her today on the bathroom scale with and without me to subtract the difference. I won't tell you what I weighed, 😁but if my math was correct, she weighs 5.6 lbs. Considering that she's only 6 months old, I think she may be a good-sized kitty. Speaking of good sized kitties, my husband saw a bobcat once again this past week on our property walking towards the woods. That's 3 times now for him and 0 for me. Maybe I'm too noisy or something. They never seem to come around when I'm around. 🙃 Hopefully someday!
If you have any prayer requests and would like to share them, by all means, feel free to. And if you'd like to keep the request(s) private, you can simply write the word "unspoken" and we can pray for your need in a general sense as God is aware of all the specifics. Luke 12:7 assures us that God even knows the number of hairs on our heads. Perhaps that verse sounds a bit odd, but I appreciate that God so clearly illustrates his interest in us using an example that we can wrap our heads around. Pun intended. God is not a "hands off" creator, as the deist believes. He is sovereignly involved in the interworkings and affairs of men. Yes, there is a free will that he gives, and hence man is responsible for his actions, but ultimately God is sovereignly working everything out for the good of his people and for his glory. See Romans 8:28
and Colossians 1:16 "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and FOR HIM."
So if anyone ever ask you why God created the world, tell them Colossians 1:16. 😊
Thank you for reading my posts and watching my videos. I do try my best to bring you interesting and inspiring content. I don't ever expect to be a big content creator, but I do feel so encouraged when you let me know that you like what I do. Believe me when I say that the pennies I make here doesn't drive me. (and thank goodness because I wouldn't even make it to McDonald's 😁) It's your appreciation! Have a wonderful week, my friends! ~ Rachel 🎄💕🦃🐈
