Hair cuts

In the days of Silver Hills long ago, every morning and noon and night! I walked that steep hill. Today, at home for the first time in 10 years I went for a walk out east at 7:15am. I heard a Robin whistle, chickadees, singing, a schoolbus went by and the driver inside waved, a couple of trucks on their way to whereever, ice still on the roads, and bless it all--fresh air in my lungs. walking up the little hill to my home i felt dizzy with oxygen! and revived with a warm cup of orange juice when I took my coat off and prepared it in my new kitchen.

Ready for the day now.

Jud 9:33 -
And it shall be, as soon as the sun is up in the morning, that you shall rise early and rush upon the city; and when he and the people who are with him come out against you, you may then do to them as you find opportunity."

1Sa 29:10 -
Now therefore, rise early in the morning with your master's servants who have come with you. And as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart."

Job 1:5 -
So it was, when the days of feasting had run their course, that Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did regularly.

Ps 119:147 - Show Context
I rise before the dawning of the morning, And cry for help; I hope in Your word.

I tried putting off going for a walk later in the day but it never happened. Rise up early in the morning! Remember the song Midnight Cry. Jesus will come at midnight-early in the morning. at the midnight hour the ten virgins were to be ready. At midnight the Israelites were to be ready to leave in the early morning. We don't know the real time but early risers do get the worm!!! And all the old ladies who wanted haircuts today got them!!!!!

Bread and Water

"Our Lord has said, 'Except ye eat of the flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, ye have no life in you. . . . For My flesh is meat indeed, and My blood is drink indeed.' John 6:53-55. This is true of our physical nature. To the death of Christ we owe even this earthly life. The bread we eat is the purchase of His broken body. The water we drink is bought by His spilled blood. Never one, saint or sinner, eats his daily food, but he is nourished by the body and the blood of Christ. The cross of Calvary is stamped on every loaf. It is reflected in every water spring. All this Christ has taught in appointing the emblems of His great sacrifice. The light shining from that Communion service in the upper chamber makes sacred the provisions for our daily life. The family board becomes as the table of the Lord, and every meal a sacrament."—Ellen G. White, The Desire of Ages, p. 660.

The Great Sculptor

I don't know the name of this mountain, I should after living here for so many years, but look at it, it looks like a crown in the middle of the earth! Someday God wil put his crown of glory on each one of you. You have been faithful to your friends and family, encouraged each other and kept faith with Jesus who died for us all. May the risen Savior bless all today.
Lacy tendrils reach out to catch sunshiny rays hiding in the shadows.

How can you not post something so beautiful for the world to see! The sun has just risen from behind the mountains toward Smithers and burst out in full glory making each little branch glisten with melting beads of hoar frost.
It was so hard to continue on with the old blog after my parents have passed away, memories are too fresh and so here is the start of a new one. Winter is still here and the Great Sculptor is still at work. Rivers of water frozen on the Rock alongside the Bulkley River.



Going on a plane ride!!
