Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! Psalm 100:3 - 4 ESV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.100.3-4/4356?version=59

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! Psalm 95:2 ESV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.95.2/347?version=59

The Calf- Path One day through the primeval wood A calf walked home as good calves should But made a trail all bent askew, A crooked trail as all calves do. Since then three hundred years have fled, And I infer the calf is dead. But still he left behind his trail, And thereby hangs my moral tale. The trail was taken up next day, By a lone dog that passed that way; And then a wise bell-wether sheep Pursued the trail o'er vale and steep, And drew the flock behind him, too, As good bell-wethers do. And from that day, o'er hill and glade, Through those old woods a path was made. And many men wound in and out, And dodged, and turned and bent about, And uttered words of righteous wrath, Because 'twas such a crooked path; But still they followed- do not laugh- The first migrations of that calf, And through this winding wood- way stalked Because he wobbled when he walked. This forest path became a lane, That bent and turned and turned again; This crooked lane became a road, Where many a poor horse with his load Toiled on beneath the burning sun, And traveled some three miles in one. The years passed on in swiftness fleet, The road became a village street; And this, before men were aware, A city's crowded thoroughfare. And soon the central street was this Of a renowned metropolis; And men two centuries and a half, Trod in the footsteps of that calf. Each day a hundred thousand rout Followed the zigzag calf about And o'er his crooked journey went The traffic of a continent. A hundred thousand men were led, By one calf near three centuries dead. They followed still his crooked way, And lost one hundred years a day; For thus such reverence is lent, To well established precedent. A moral lesson this might teach Were I ordained and called to preach; For men are prone to go it blind Along the calf- path of the mind, And work away from sun to sun, To do what other men have done. They follow in the beaten track, And out and in, and forth and back, And still their devious course pursue, To keep the path that others do. They keep the path a sacred groove, Along which all their lives they move. But how the wise old wood gods laugh; Who saw the first primeval calf. Ah, many things this tale might teach; But I am not ordained to preach. Sam Foss

#TommiesSundayChapel Status update. So I have picked up reading several theology books as well as my daily reading of the Word and trying to get stuff done around the farm. I find that my time management is as great as it could be and the chapel videos have taken a hit. Having said that I have been feeling rather convicted to get one out so next week it is I promise so long as nothing wild happens I will have a new one next week

The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. 1 Timothy 1:15 - 17 ESV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/1ti.1.15-17/5755?version=59

looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2 ESV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/heb.12.2/32927?version=59

Working on the cross fences today and found a bunch of dried up turkey tails. Maybe there will be more next year. I think they are good in the fall. I could be wrong though. I will have to look it up
