I am smitten with the beauty of it. The bluest blue, dotted with white and sprinkled with green. So much so that I came in to pen this post for you.
It is not quite two o’clock in Lower Alabama and the skies
are a feast for the eyes.
I noticed as I was strolling the yard there was nary a breeze. Since coming in though I see Old Glory giving me a wave or two. A gorgeous September day! And we could and probably should stop right there but we generally don’t; we go on to say But it’s hot! And so it is.
Yep! striking somewhere between 90 and 100 degrees. I’ve often done this: see the exceedingly good things surrounding me and then let a but it’s hot turn my sunshine to rain, BUT today I think I’ll just enjoy this puppy dog flying high.

Amen and Amen!

NO SIN GOES UNPUNISHED. EITHER WE BEAR IT OR JESUS DOES IT FOR US, AND WE GET TO CHOOSE WHO DOES THE BEARING.
It’s an empty space; three boards are missing. JT noticed a little give a few days ago as he stepped on the deck on his way to Sara’s yard. She will often insist for a milk bone. But I digress. And so with some muscle, some resistance, some screw heads stripped and some work with a power saw, we have a gaping hole. See.
I stared at the hole and I thought: well, life happens! Deck boards wear out for everyone. And DADDY GOD doesn’t always intervene to stop the natural decaying process in deck boards and other matters of this pretty world. But you know, I smiled looking at that empty space that must be filled. Yeah. I really did. A gaping hole in a not that old deck brought a vivid sweet truth to mind. Actually it was the truth that brought the smile. The truth that GOD is always on Hand to give His Hand in helps with every rotten board, every disappointment, every dark, musky, putrid thing that comes along; He is right there. No. He does not as often as I like stop natural decay but He always has a solution. He always gives strength to pull out those rotten boards and fill the space with a new, fresh and stable walking path for each of His children who will ask.
Sweet.

confidence in approaching God;22 then, whatever we ask for, we
receive from him; because we are obeying his commands and doing
the things that please him. [source] I John 3.

It was spur of the moment; just a Sunday afternoon stroll. Want to come along for a moment? :)
It was lovely on the boardwalk. Can you tell? It’s long. It’s winding. It’s eye captivating. And then . . .
Do you see it? I know. It’s hardly noticeable! Just a little bump on the path. No I didn’t fall headlong but I sure did stumble. :)
My point?
15 Therefore, pay careful attention to how you conduct your life — live wisely, not unwisely. 16 Use your time well, for these are evil days. 17 So don’t be foolish, but try to understand what the will of the Lord is. [source]

We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
