good cold morning from the land of the "frozen". hahaha it is cold. I had gotten up at about 1 am this morning and it was 20 degrees and then at 5 am, it was 17 degrees and now at 8:35 an it is a warm 23 degrees. all the time the local weather app says our low was 29 degrees. the weather app lies. our micro climate is much colder than the apps say. so I just look outside on my deck to see what the temp is.
for some reason I was doing around this morning and my mind went to my precious sister in Christ who is in the presence of our dear Lord and Savior. Jamie went home to be with Jesus back in Dec of 2015. I have missed her terribly since. it has been 9 years since I've seen her precious face. we used to get out and just go fun local places. enjoy a meal and pray over the server and the restaurant in general. we would go shopping and pray over someone that the Lord led us to. her memory popped in my mind this morning and it hit me pretty hard. I have missed her and the way she could just take you right to the very presence of the Lord. so, Jamie, I just wanted you to know that Pearl Joy sure does miss Pearl Love a lot. I still reach for my cellphone to send you a text or call, or wait for a text or a call from you. I know that one of these days we'll be together again and I hope we both have our tutus so we can dance before the Lord while praising His holy name.
I think I was thinking about my blog and Jamie was my biggest fan. she said she loved how she could just feel like she was in my presence when she was reading a new post. she said it felt like it was written specifically for her, kinda like we were sitting at the kitchen table, chatting while sipping coffee. when I was making my coffee this morning, Jamie popped into my memory. she couldn't have ever told me anything better than what she told me.
I want every one to feel like you're visiting with me personally, sitting at my kitchen table, sipping coffee or tea and chatting. I sure hope that's how at least one person feels. anyway, on to the rest of the blog.
--------------
we'll do another "2 minutes in the kitchen with me". for the time being, it will be a regular part of my blog.
this is what some of my brioche buns are used for. the buns and the sausage, cheese and egg patties are the same size. I bake the sausage cheese and egg patties in the same silicone muffin top pan that I bake the buns in.
the next time I'm thawing and letting my buns rise, I'll take a picture so it will make more sense.
but they are a perfect match. a match made in my kitchen. hahaha and I must say that my husband loves his breakfast every morning. I do appreciate that too.
all my hard work pays off and it's very much appreciated.

picking up with Exodus in chapter 21, we read about all the various laws. these are very interesting to say the least. Exodus 23: 6bsays , "and do not kill the innocent or the righteous, for I will not acquit the guilty." this made me think about all the abortions that this country and the world at large is guilty of. some of these days there will be responsibility taken for this atrocity. we also read about the 3 National Feasts that the Israelites were to observe. we have replaced scripture with easter, halloween and christmas. and all the festivities and parades that surround the abominable homosexuals and all the deviant evil wicked behaviors that have chosen to call their lifestyle. please, someone show me a scripture that says this is ok. I've read the bible thru several times and I've never once seen God call this behavior anything but abominable. so to go to church and claim to be a Christian, choosing to live this lifestyle, let me just say that there is no way that you can be a Christian. that's not my judgement call, that's what God says, in multiple places in His word.
over and over again, God tells His people not to even speak the names of the pagan gods, and yet we see that over and over again not only do they speak the names, but they worship the pagan gods. the very thing that God tells us not to do , is the very thing that we bust a gut to do. was that way then and it's still the same way now.
there is lots of info about building a sanctuary, tabernacle for God to be among them. God specified exactly what He wanted and they built it with a lot of the spoils from Egypt.
God had explained to Moses exactly what He wanted in the way of a tabernacle and all the furnishings of all kinds, garments to be worn and anointing oils and God had written the 10 commandments in stone with His finger. the people knew where Moses was all along. they had previously agreed to all the commands of God and that they would serve God and only Him. when Moses come off the mountain, from the presence of God, we see in the short time of 40 days the people had grown restless and wanted something to worship. wow, how familiar does that sound??? that's just like us today. yes. it is. we'll see how this turns out next time.
--------------------
well, I guess this is where we'll call it a done job on this blog post. I hope you seen something here that you like, if you did tell someone about it. I hope you have a most beautiful day and that you remember to thank God for allowing you to be a part of it. I'm so thankful that God woke me up this morning, I hope you are too. blessings of peace, joy and love be yours today. hugs and love, patty
