Isaac Newton wrote:-

 -  On the sun and other heavenly bodies:
"This most beautiful system of the sun, planets, and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion            of an intelligent Being."

 -  On the solar system:
    "The motions of the planets require a Divine Arm to impress them."

-  On atheism:
    "Atheism is so senseless.  When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amount of heat and light.  This did not happen by chance."

-  On the Bible:
    "I have a fundamental belief in the Bible as the Word of God, written by men who were inspired.  I study the      Bible daily."

Quotes taken from, "Isaac Newton" biography by John Hudson Tiner.

Young Man of Valour

Young man of God, will you guard your eyes
And keep them only for your greatest prize?
The wife God planned for you from the beginning,
She'll be enough to keep your head a-spinning!
Don't waste your emotions looking at other girls,
No matter how special or gorgeous their curls,
Instead, keep your eyes fixed on the Lord.
Follow His leading and you'll never be flawed.

Young man of might, will you guard your heart?
Don't give your feelings to any up-start,
Keep your heart disciplined and wait for the time
When God shows you His choice; it will be sublime:
A daughter of virtue who has kept herself pure,
Who follows after truth and trusts God for sure,
One who loves children and keeping the home,
And who delights to serve without a moan.

Young man of valour, will you keep your first kiss
For your wedding day when it will be true bliss?
Will you start your marriage on a holy foundation?
For this is the way to strengthen the nation
And establish a family that will endure any test:
For God will be with you and you will be blessed
Even in the storms, the wind and the battles of life
If you keep the covenant with your lovely wife.

A neighborhood cat we are trying to tame. In hopes of having another pet cat, we are giving it food. It is so appreciative... it snarls at us whenever we get close ;)

Anna + her excited face = perfect picture

We got to go to a Cabela's in Fort Worth, Texas a couple weeks ago. It was pretty cool, but some of us were disappointed that everything cost money and wasn't free ;)

Horses...

We (Anna, Sarah and I) help a friend out at at ranch in Guthrie. This week we cleaned the horses (vacuumed and brushed), did their tails, put them outside to walk on the exercise machine, cleaned stalls and then brought them back in. There are about 8 horses and 6 mini ponies. We've been enjoying our time out there and getting to work around horses :)
