Just a few pics. We have enjoyed the deepest snow in memory for this part of the deep South.
Fresh fallen and untouched snow, one the most beautiful of sights to me. It reminds me of Scripture. May I share it with you?
It seems impossible!
January 6, 2025! But here we are. We may get some greens and pork chops today. Nearly a week late but since we are not superstitious it will not matter — just something tasty to eat.
It’s cold here today for Lower Alabama- 40 degrees- and mostly cloudy. A stay-at-home day, unless I really need something at the store.😊
May we encourage you today to pray for your family and friends; pray for people around the world who are sick and hurting, who are lost and have yet to see their way to the Savior.
A verse comes to mind: 32 Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you. Ephesians 4
To all our Readers, new and long-standing, thank you and please hang with us as we navigate 2025. I am continuing my reading through the Bible from 2024. 
Twenty-twenty-four was the best time in Scripture of my life I think. I am expecting 2025 to be even better! Learning my Father, serving my LORD, and waiting for Our KING!
I hope you will often stop by The White Stone Blog this year. I hope in this new year, I will give you reasons to come by for regular visits.
Hello Friends,
It was not my intent to leave you in the middle of Luke.
Forgive me, please.
We are about to wrap up this year of 2024 and what a year it has been!
Not one I shall soon forget. GOD has been GOOD!
My beloved is continuing to recover here at home after a recent hospital stay, our family was here, and we loved on one another and rejoiced. Our hearts are full of gladness and our bodies are way tired! 😊
Shall we now turn our hearts to reflection and focus on our Heavenly Father and the adventures He will bring across our paths in 2025? Shall we in this coming week make provisions to leave behind the sins that have easily beset us this year?
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us. 2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. Hebrews 12 LINK to source
Shall we receive courage from The Holy ONE to forgive more easily, to let us lay not our heads on pillows to sleep with malice poisoning our minds? Shall we listen carefully and hear our family and friends with the benefit of the doubt? Shall we listen to HOLY SPIRIT and respond to Him quickly and favorably? These are just a few of the things coming to mind tonight.
Thinking. Reflecting.
I think I have forgotten more than I remember of the Goodness of the LORD to me this year.
Yet this one in particular stays with me.
Reading from Genesis to maps.
I’m ready next for Psalm 119.
This reading through has been one of the sweetest treasures in my Journey of 72, almost 73 years. Just the gift of sticking with it; of seeing it through, not giving up even on those occasions when I have missed a day or two. Of picking up that precious book, finding that golden ribbon that marks the place, and carrying on.
Perhaps we carry on (stick with it) because we carry a Precious Treasure in these earthen vessels. 😊
The gift of sticking with it!
Happy Saturday my Friends.
