grasshopper grasshopper









I am not a grasshopper! I won't be deceived by Satan. I have the overcoming power of Jesus Christ. Numbers 13:33 33 There we saw the Nephilim [or giants], the sons of Anak, who come from the giants; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

Ecclesiastes 12:1-7 The Twilight of Life 1 So remember your Creator in the days of your youth: Before the days of adversity come, and the years approach when you will say, I have no delight in them; 2 before the sun and the light are darkened, and the moon and the stars, and the clouds return after the rain; 3 on the day when the guardians of the house tremble, and the strong men stoop, the women who grind cease because they are few, and the ones who watch through the windows see dimly, 4 the doors at the street are shut while the sound of the mill fades; when one rises at the sound of a bird, and all the daughters of song grow faint. 5 Also, they are afraid of heights and dangers on the road; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper loses its spring, and the caper berry has no effect; for man is headed to his eternal home, and mourners will walk around in the street; 6 before the silver cord is snapped, and the gold bowl is broken, and the jar is shattered at the spring, and the wheel is broken into the well; 7 and the dust returns to the earth as it once was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

bee movie

I was standing near my roses one day puzzling over the semi-circle cut-outs on the leaves. Along flew a bee & it started walking along a rose leaf edge & then proceeded to chomp into it in a most mysterious way- I could actually hear it as it cut! I thought what sort of bee does that?! A friend of mine informed me later that it was a leaf cutter bee. This is another example of how God loves to delight me. He knows what does it for me & quirky little discoveries of His amazing Nature such as this leaf-cutter bee is awesome & I totally love God for showing me this & for enabling me to capture it on video. Nobody can tell me there is no God because I know there is & He loves each one of us in a very personal way. A God who creates leaf-cutter bees- well- what can you say, but only -awesome!And He let me discover it- so mysteriously wonderful is my God & it is only because I decided to believe in Jesus that I am privy to the Father's blessings. Jesus is the Way to the Father. Try Him! He came & died for us all so we could come back to God & know Him intimately & receive His love. Jesus is the best!
