Lucky we dont have skunks here in Australia, but I do need to constantly check for foxes around our chickens. We have 6 hens and one rooster, we will be getting 10 more hens on Saturday. Did the skunk stink? I have heard them smell really bad and some people say you can wash yourself with tomato juice to get the smell off, is this true? It was interesting that some of the chicks had maggots on them so quickly. Keep writing, you are very good at it.<br /><br />Love EvaAndEvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12475638083186094154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628258836782068177.post-35254667493262387842012-07-10T16:49:16.657-07:002012-07-10T16:49:16.657-07:00Hello Rachel, your garden looks and sounds wonderf...Hello Rachel, your garden looks and sounds wonderful...how I love fresh strawberries.

Invariably, they say that they will take just a little. I ask them why they don't take it all. Well, I have to leave some for everyone. Why? The offer was for them. Are we thinking of something we learned in kindergarten?<br />It is the same with the offer to come to Christ, to follow him. Where in the world and when in our lives have we been taught to believe that we can't have it all?! Where do we have to share our eternal exaltation?<br />We can have all that Christ will give us. If we want to believe we only deserve part of it, then that is all we will accept. He can't shove any more blessings down our throats. It is not in the plan of agency. When we reject every invitation, it is because we are seeing it in shallow waters.<br />Oh, I have bought into the false belief that only special people see Christ, that is until I started to meet people who aren't holding any special office or calling in a church. They were people who had such a love of and for Jesus Christ that they couldn't be kept from his presence. Evidently, that is the key here. Love. Love is always the answer. Little children enter the kingdom of Heaven all the time. That is because they believe. <br />Check out your beliefs. It is a most revealing experience. If you believe you can't see Christ, that is only for 'special' people, believe me; you won't. If you believe you can, you will, because all things are possible with God. Just check out the Bible. It was Jesus himself who said this in Mark 9:23: Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.<br />I will put my money on Christ. If he says all things, He means it. All is a big ticket item. I believe Him. I believe in Him, and I am so excited at the prospect of seeing Him sooner than later. He holds great blessings for me. By seeing Him, it is not just getting a good look at his face, hair and eyes. No, no. I will be in his presence. I will feel the prints of the nails in his hands, feet and side. I will bask in His love. I will feel it throughout my entire being. <br /><br />And when has Christ ever shown himself that he didn't heal everyone around. He will heal me. Who on this earth isn't ready for some heavy duty relief. Then he will hold me in His arms and I will be ready for even greater things He wants me to do. He did tell me to become like Him. I am all for getting a personal interview and instructions from the Creator of this world. I will do just exactly as I have been asked, I will seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness. In 2 separate places the words are identical with this invitation.<br />3 Nephi 13:33 and Matthew 6:33 tell us: But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.<br />I believe we have all been settling for far less than we could have. No wonder Pres. Benson told us we were living far beneath our privileges. I for one want to live us to every privilege that is mine. Please forgive me for stepping on your beliefs, but they are getting in the way of my eternal progression.Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014929289033051037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628258836782068177.post-53126642581266832572012-05-20T08:07:00.017-07:002012-05-20T08:07:00.017-07:00I second that comment.
