What sign can you do?

Posted by on
John 6:30-35 If I wasn't in the same boat as these sinners following Jesus I would probably be laughing right in their face. I often wonder how Jesus kept from rolling on the grass laughing at what some people do. Today we hear the crowd ask Him, "What sign can you do, that we may see and believe in you? What can you do?..." Is this not the same crowd who in verse 2 we are told - "followed him, because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick ."? Are these not the same people who in verse 14 " when they saw the sign he had done, they said, "This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world."? Yet still they seek a sign. However, they are not seeking a sign so that they might believe, they are wanting to be fed. Jesus worked a "sign" with the loaves and the fishes and now they want Him to do it again. Wisely, Jesus is using their bellies to get to their hearts; He is using earthly things to move them,

Random Pictures May 2nd

Posted by on
These are pictures we have taken over the past week. Comments below each picture....

We went to my uncle's house after Mass for a family get together. The boys brought their boots and the leisure stroll in the creek became an all out splash war, much of it instigated by their father..... mom stayed on the bank and took these action photos.

I threw this large flat rock at #2. He saw what was about to happen and quickly turned around. He still got wet!


One of many frogs sitting around the pond keeping and eye on us.


Nicole took this picture. I am not sure what sort of tree it is. I'm guessing an apple or cherry.

Haircut time with the boys. #2 volunteered for a mohawk.

He actually cried when I told him I couldn't leave it that way.

#1 getting a buzz cut for spring.

He's not as tough as he looks although he's one tough wrestler!

#3 gets cuter everyday. We're going to have a tough time with these boys and the fairer sex.

Deep in thought....or watching a brother do something that's not so bright.

Catherine got the play saucer for her birthday and the boys got the box.

Heading back home from a short hike on the property. It looks like we're in another country.


#4 and I found these strange beings growing in the midst of the May Apples.
