Hello, “2025”. But first, an overdue 2024 winter photo dump.

There is a glorious peace available which none of us deserve, but that God gives to those who rest in His Truth. Seek the Truth, not your own truths, prove all things, and hold fast to the good; that pure light that guides our feet on the path in this time, and into this "new (Gregorian calander) year"!
May the reader with the love for the Truth be blessed with all the promised spiritual blessings that come through trusting in the word of Truth which was directed to mankind in this present time under “the dispensation of the grace of God which is given [Paul] to youward” (Ephesians 3:2)!
These glad tidings to all nations which God dispensed nearly two thousand years ago are still being offering to mankind today; for us each to choose to be justified freely unto Him despite our unworthiness/the mistakes we inevitably still make sometimes; and thus only through Christ’s perfect finished Work that He wrought for us: the Work which none of us could have done; that purged the law of ordinances which were against mankind, to free those who live under the religious law from the curse of it. The mystery revealed also thus frees man from the otherwise inevitable religious hipocrisy which all who live under the religious law fall into. (Romans 4:25, 1 Corinthians 15:1-5, Colossians 2:14)
My heart drops thinking of how much deception abounds especially this holiday season, and how the churches are missing out on all of the glory that comes from “Christ according to the revelation of the mystery” (Romans 16:25) which was only revealed AFTER His earthly ministry ended and He changed the instruction (Law to Grace) and the audience (Israel to the whole world).
Love, grace, and peace to you all through our Lord Jesus the truest Shepherd, and from Dee a local furry herd shepherd. (And btw If you knew Gentiles were considered “dogs” from the Torah all the way into the New Testament in Jesus’ earthly ministry, you would see why His current heavenly ministry to all people is “more glorious”. (Jesus in Matthew 10:5-6, 15:21-28, John 1:1, Romans 15:8, 2 Corinthians 3:1-11, 5:16, Acts 17:24-28, and throughout Pauls thirteen epistles to all nations today: Romans-Philemon)
