Is it raining still?
"Come and get me when it stops."
"Meow!"
"So tired."
Our choices were limited to OPERA or reflecting on a reading, and the cat boys opted for reading this morning.
"Know ye that by "the world" is meant your unawareness of Him Who is your Maker, and your absorption in aught else but Him. The "life to come," on the other hand, signifieth the things that give you a safe approach to God, the All-Glorious, the Incomparable. Whatsoever deterreth you, in this Day, from loving God is nothing but the world. ... Should a man wish to adorn himself with the ornaments of the earth, to wear its apparels, or partake of the benefits it can bestow, no harm can befall him, if he alloweth nothing whatever to intervene between him and God, for God hath ordained every good thing, whether created in the heavens or in the earth, for such of His servants as truly believe in Him. Eat ye, O people, of the good things which God hath allowed you, and deprive not yourselves from His wondrous bounties. Render thanks and praise unto Him, and be of them that are truly thankful...." Gleanings
Wet pawfuls of kitty kisses and warm cat wishes for your week!
Ciao everyone!

love the thought: no harm can befall me as long as nothing comes between me and my maker.

ReplyDeletePoor kitties. I bet they are just itching to get out and about. The rain messes with their beautiful coiffure. Lily isn't liking it. She does like getting a towel down when she comes back in the house.
ReplyDeleteLily send you all pawfuls of kisses too.
