Our guest in the garden is posting guard against any squirrels that may come to call.   The squirrels are quite concerned.

I grew up going to Christian school.  Verses I learned from those years float around in my head and pop out in different circumstances.  This is not a devotional by any stretch of the imagination and I am not a bible teacher.  But another part of Luke 12 popped in my head as I thought of “guarding against things”.

“And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me. And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you? And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”  Luke 12: 13-21. KJV

This afternoon we have a guest in the garden.  His name is Sandy.  He comes to visit on the weekends some time.  Today Robin and Missy are working on their kitchen, so I brought food – and came home with Sandy.  Sandy’s planning on having a sleepover here tonight.
