In mid-19th century Scotland, Bobby is a little Skye Terrier
who belongs to a farmer and his wife.  He subsequently befriends
an elderly man named Auld Jock who tends the farmer's sheep.
After money grows scarce and the farmer has to fire him, Auld Jack
travels to the city of Edinburgh. Bobby decides to follow him there. 

 

After his elderly master dies and is buried in Greyfriar's Kirkyard (cemetery)
faithful Bobby, now alone in the city, returns to sleep at his friend's gravesite
every night.  According to the story still told in Scotland today, the faithful
little dog spent 14 years watching over the grave until his own death.

Dr. Charles Stanley: Your Life Matters To God

 

 

 

 "How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we
should be called the children of God. And that is what we are!"
(1 John 3:1)

 In this classic teaching, Dr. Charles Stanley reminds us that
when the circumstances of life feel overwhelming, we have
 a heavenly Father with an unfailing love for us, 
 and that our lives matter to Him.

Saturday Poetry Corner: September

Lo! a ripe sheaf of many golden days

Gleaned by the year in autumn's harvest ways,

With here and there, blood-tinted as an ember,

Some crimson poppy of late delight

Atoning in its splendor for the flight

Of summer blooms and joys.

This is September.

Flashback Friday: Dog And Butterfly

"See the dog and the butterfly,
Up in the air he likes to fly
Dog and butterfly

Below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft ground, laughing
She don't know why, she don't know why
 Dog and butterfly..."

This week's "Flashback Friday" showcases two lovely ladies
who have been best friends since their girlhood school days. 
The talented guitarist-singer on the right is Patty Vesper
while the equally gifted singer on the left is my sister, 
Daniele Spence, whose birthday is today! 

🎂Happy Birthday, Sis!🎂 

 

Both girls are big fans of the rock group Heart, so it's no
wonder I found their cover of "Dog And Butterfly" on YouTube!

 

Released in 1978, this soft romantic ballad was a departure from the
usual rock songs sung by the band's lead vocalists, sisters Ann and
 Nancy Wilson, and is said to have been inspired after Ann looked out
the window one day and saw a dog relentlessly chasing after a butterfly.

 She saw the song as an inspiration for when things get tough in life, 
"to keep going" after it.
