Puppies and Pumpkins

We went to our breeders' farm today to see Eve's puppies. Oh, there is nothing quite like puppy breath and puppy kisses! Eve had 7 puppies in this litter--they're the ones you see running free. There are also three puppies from a different litter; two are going home this weekend, one girl is still unsold. So, if anyone is interested in getting bitten by the Vizsla bug, email me or leave me a note in the comments. Saasha's puppies are behind the fence. They really wanted to get out and play with Eve's pups.

God's Minute

October 22

My tongue shall speak of Thy righteousness and praise.--Ps. 35:28

OUR Heavenly Father, we rejoice in Thy love. The knowledge of Thy love for us casts out all our fear as we approach Thee in prayer. Thy love has redeemed us, and moment by moment we are kept by the power of Thy love. That we may glorify Thee, help us to be kind and courteous and honest in all the relations of life. Give us the mind that was in Christ Jesus. Help us with open eye to see the truth, and with open heart to receive it, and grant us grace in all things to do Thy holy will. We thank Thee, Heavenly Father, that Thou hast supplied all our needs. We have wanted for no good thing. We confidently trust Thee for the future. We put our all in Thy hands, knowing Thou wilt never fail us. Be about our homes and loved ones today. Beat back all that disturbs human peace and mars human happiness. Deliver us from all evil.

Bless and prosper the cause of Christ our Saviour in the Church and throughout the world. Bring many today, by the way of the cross, into Thy Kingdom. Save the lost. We ask all this, with the forgiveness of our sins, through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Amen.

Rev. Charles Henry Pinchbeck,
Baltimore, Maryland

Reformation Theology Blog

Here's a new extension of an old favorite. Monergism has been one of my favorite resources for theological articles for several years and I learned yesterday that John Hendryx and the gang have started a new blog, Reformation Theology. This promises to be meaty and well worth adding to your daily reading:

We are a community of confessing believers from various backgrounds with solidarity in Reformed Theology. Our contributors include a wide diversity of traditions: Baptists, Presbyterians, Charismatic, Non-denominational and Independent. Even though we may have differences on non-essential matters, we are all committed to the Biblical and Christ-exalting truths of the Reformation such as the five solas, the doctrines of grace, monergistic regeneration, and the redemptive historical approach to interpreting the Scriptures.

Sounds like a feast, doesn't it?
