A Discovery In My Garden

I took this picture a few years ago.

A Discovery In My Garden

I thought of something yesterday I believe to be highly unusual.  This is something that happened months ago.  I was working out in my yard.  I walked over to the south side of my home to do something.  I picked up an empty pot and underneath was what I believed to be a pile of earthworms. 

It looked as though someone had emptied out a container of worms into a pile.  I'm still not sure if they were worms or snakes. 

A few days later I saw something that looked like a worm but the weather was hot and the ground was dry.  I noticed it moved more like a snake over the ground.  Then I immediately thought of the pile of worms I saw just a few days before.

Then again this past month or so I saw a baby guarder snake about eight to twelve inches long.  I've

seen guarder snakes in my yard on occasion throughout the years of living here.  It was the first time, however, that I saw a baby one.  So now I'm wondering if I have fifty baby guarder snakes in my yard.

I learned something about guarder snakes because of the discovery.  The eggs of the guarder snake hatch on the inside of the mother before she gives birth to them.  So I'm thinking I discovered them just after their birth.

I guess I will know more about it when spring and summer are here again.  Maybe there will be more to tell.

Bad Feelings Cause Emotional Suffering And Other Quotes

Bad Feelings Cause Emotional Suffering

     Everyone sometimes has bad feelings.  We can be tempted in every possible way emotionally.  As Christians, we can tell God about those things honestly.  We are all sinners and look to God to help us spiritually, physically, and emotionally.  We can look to God's word and know what he wants us to feel. It is by prayer and reading God's word we can overcome emotional battles. 

     We need to be honest with God about how we feel and honest with ourselves as well.  When we do that we can get over whatever bad feeling we are having.  We need to make decisions based on what is right and what is wrong. Not on how we are feeling. God, will lead us and help us if we are willing to follow Him.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. {honest: or, venerable}

.......I have learned that people can misunderstand what is being said.  

.......If I say I use a strobe light (For Example) It does not mean I would use one on a regular basis for church worship.  But it does mean I would use one for a puppet show for a black light effect.  In a very conservative way. 

.......I have learned that people can get confused about who you're talking about. My Son in law has a boss named Geoge. My husband's name is George also.

......My granddaughter sometimes gets confused about which grandma is getting talked about.  We are both called grandma, we are both called mom.

-------My flower gardens have everything to do with God.  He made every one of them.  I enjoy them. I enjoy learning about how they propagate.  I enjoy the fact that there are so many different kinds. I like learning about plants.  I always have. Since I was a young girl.  I am tired of people taking good words and good things and teaching people to associate them with something bad.

-----When God made creation  He said it was Very Good!
