Frogs and Lovely Ladies of the Lord??

Internet Photo
What on earth does this "king frog" have to do with anything you may be asking yourself!
Good question!  So keep reading...

 Yesterday our "Lovely Ladies of the Lord" met in the "new" home of one of our lovely ladies for our monthly time of fellowship and prayer and sharing from God's Word.


Have you ever tried to take a picture of a group of ladies and get them to all smile, open their eyes, and stop talking long enough to snap the picture?  Well, we had a lot of fun trying to get it just right...


And it's too bad we couldn't get us all in the picture at the same time...we tried a "selfie", but that just wasn't working at all...(no picture of that that could be shared...)
But you get the picture, right?  We had a great time, laughing, praying, and praising the Lord together...and that's what it was all about...

Now back to that King Frog...
That is not the frog that was with us for our gathering yesterday. I forgot to take a picture of him...he was much prettier...crystal clear with a gold crown, and pink paper toenails that said:
F.R.O.G.

Our leader asked each lady if she could read what the pink "toenails" said, and of course, each in turn said, "FROG".

"But do you know what that stands for?"  she asked...

Most of them thought the G must stand for God, but were pretty sketchy on what the rest of the letters stood for.  I kept quiet because I had been in on the original discussion of this idea...

Finally, our leader explained that the F.R.O.G. stood for:

"FULLY RELY ON GOD"

Then we talked a bit about the book of Romans in the Bible, and how it is called,
"The Gospel of God", because this epistle lays out the full plan of redemption and the great doctrines of the Grace of God...and how we can always fully rely on God in all circumstances of life...

Romans 8:28 says:
"And we know that all things work together for good 
to those who love God, 
to those who are the called according to His purpose..."

And Romans 8:31 assures us the following promise...

"What then shall we say to these things?
If God is for us, who can be against us?"

Yes, we can "Fully Rely On God"
to be there for us, no matter what!!

Now, hop along and have a wonderful day...
God's got you covered!!!


Postscript: My lovely friend Annie from Cottage By The Sea "photo-shopped" our ladies' group photos above so that we could all be in the picture together!  Here is the result:


Pretty good job, I'd say!  Thank you, Annie!!  I'm not clever enough to figure out how she did that...but isn't it fun?  Have a blessed day everyone!!
