Guest Backyard

It's not that i've run out of interesting photo ops at my own backyard, but i wanted to share with you Larry and Lisa's unique backyard. They also host each Sunday afternoon an exciting and intense 3-hour Bible study in their cozy I.B. home, replete with delicious Filipino fixin's from their kitchen, recliner chairs, thick blankets...even your own house slippers!

This semester, we are studying in this 3-in-1 course, Creation and the Hebrew Patriarchs (Genesis and Job); The Life of CHRIST -- Part I (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John); Doctrines of GOD and the Bible -- via satellite courses from Faith Bible Institute, with Pastor John T. Yates.

This is what makes their backyard unique -- they have chickens for pets! Along with their two dogs Bambi and Itim.

Lisa blessed me with these organic eggs -- which will be breakfast to fuel me before Zumba Fitness tomorrow. But i had to get off the thought that i'll be feasting on the chickens' "kidnapped" newborns! (Lisa said a mommy chicken actually tried to hide her eggs from her by half-burying them in the dirt.)

Why is it that when we make pets of animals, our hearts get twisted into such convoluted emotionalism? Is it because GOD's ultimate character is Infinite Love and we are but exhibiting His nature for we were created in His image?

So GOD created man in His own image; in the image of GOD He created him; male and female He created them. (Genesis 1:27)
