May 14, 2008. Jesus, who did not have evil thoughts, responded to others as our example for good in thinking no evil. During the storm at sea he was confronted by the disciples, "Carest thou not that we perish? 8221; He responded, "Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith? Who can forgive sins but God only? Jesus, knowing their thoughts, asked, “Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts? Jesus responded to Martha, “One thing is needful and Mary has chosen that good part.”. Let us discipline ou...

Reminisce: April 2008
http://applesofgoldny11.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
April 30, 2008. My daughter and grandson were cleaning out her fireplace in the anticipation of the longed for spring and warm summer. As she shoveled out the remains from the latest fire lighting she glanced at me quizzically and asked if I sill wanted ashes for the garden. Gram used ash dust on her rose bushes that lined the east side of the driveway for as long as I could remember.
