Thank You, LORD . . .

For the constant activity at our bee hive -
5997.) that You are the constant in the midst of the changing seasons of life and that You never change
5998.) for a beautiful Sunday afternoon filled with a big pile of young people helping to make ice cream and playing Ultimate Frisbee
5999.) that the farm looks extra lovely after all of Saturday's yard work
5600.) for the blessings of gift giving and a friend's joy over her graduation present
5601.) for mulit-colored carnations from a friend
5602.) for a quiet walk around the farm at twilight
5603.) for Friday night's dinner date with friends - homemade pot pie; a walk in their garden; tea and shortbread; a sweet evening breeze wafting in the window; and invigorating talk of Him over scented candelight
5604.) that You know my thoughts and feelings (Psalm 7:9)
5605.) that You, the Everlasting God, are my place of safety and that Your arm will hold me up forever (Deuteronomy 33:27)
5606.) for Paul's enthusiasm and passion (Acts 21:12-13)
5607.) for the reminder that wise people don't tell everything they know (Proverbs 10:14)

Brianna,

We will eventually. They belong to friends of our's who were looking for more places to expand their hives. I'm eager to taste some of the honey our adopted bees will make here on the farm!
