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,

Fall is here

Just some pictures from around the Hahn ranch.

Our favorite cowboy (notice the boots on the wrong feet).

Cooking up some of the sunflower seeds before roasting.

The colors are starting to appear on the hills.

The boys harvesting green beans for seed next year.

Christopher and William discovered Sumac berries. They came around the corner of the chicken coop claiming they'd been shot....


Pumpkin carving time. The boys grew these pumpkins themselves this summer.



The little pumpkins the cat is smelling will be used for a pumpkin porter next week.

Nicole and Catherine supervising the pumpkin carving.

The chickens are happy to finally be allowed in the garden.

A sure sign of fall.

A moth in the grass.
