Mighty Hunter

I remember when Ian went through this phase. Lewis had his first kill yesterday and has already gotten two or three more today. However, I'm afraid he's not anywhere close to being out of quarry yet.

A Constant Refrain--Ps. 107:8, 15, 21, 31

Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

I thought it was alcohol, tobacco, and firearms

Wicked parents are the most notable servants of the devil in all the world and the bloodiest enemies to their children's souls. More souls are damned [by God through the influence of] ungodly parents--and next [to] them . . . ungodly ministers and magistrates--than by any instruments in the world besides.

--Richard Baxter (as quoted in Free Grace Broadcaster #204)

Incentive

Several months back, I jokingly remarked to my husband that I needed an incentive program to help me lose those extra inches that came along with Eva. He thought that was a great idea and offered me cash prizes to correspond with the number of inches I disposed. I ended up making a decent amount of money off that deal, and I used it to expand my existing collection of plateware. My dishes arrived last week, and I am very pleased. This is a great company with an amazing selection and excellent customer service.

Thy Will Be Done: A Prayer for a Fat Soul--Psalm 106:12-15

Then believed they his words; they sang his praise. They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel: But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert. And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
