These were photos taken on my husband’s and my recent trip down the trail. It was raining a little but not enough to stop us. We were shuttled 17 miles from Damascus, VA and rode downhill all the way back to the outfitters shop.

7. Be yourself, promote yourself, and defend yourself.
8. Lie all the time. Lie to protect yourself, lie to promote your image, and lie to confuse the issues. Lie at all costs to advance in your world. Lie and keep on lying.
9. Focus on pleasure, prestige, and possessions.
10. Ignore eternity.

Quote: “I’m so glad we have made it a habit to go to church on Sundays. We don’t get up on Sunday mornings and make a decision about which job to do or whether we’ll go to church or do something else. We go to church because its what we do on Sundays, and I’m glad about that.” By Craig Miller
For Nothing,
but in everything by prayer and supplication,
with thanksgiving,
let your requests be made known unto God.
Thank Him for these two things, at least:
1. The work of Creation at the beginning of time. (Rev. 4:11)
2. The work of Redemption through the blood of Jesus Christ. (Rev. 5:9)
Philippians 4:6

“1. Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. 2. But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. 3. And do you think this, O man, you who judge those practicing such things, and doing the same, that you will escape the judgment of God? 4. Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?”
I’m not pointing fingers at anyone, nor is this a rant. I am most certainly saddened that this lesson is so hard to learn and souls are despairing, churches are splitting, and the Body of Christ is diminishing in size in our country instead of growing as it is in other parts of the world. That is what makes me read and re-read the book of Romans these days.
