I think that these pictures of frogs are so cute! They make me smile!  Frogs are not the most “prettiest” animals in the world! But our loving Lord Jesus and Loving Heavenly Father made them especially for the world. They made so many wonderful creatures and each animal has been so intricately  made, with their own special unique features and way of living. May we ever and always give praise to our wonderful creating Lord! ❤️

  It is Mother’s Day this coming Sunday. I send hugs to everyone as they remember their Mums. My Mum who is Heaven is so beautiful to me and her love remains with me everyday. It is comforting that our Loving Lord Jesus and Loving Heavenly Father know that we very much miss our Mums and gently say to us: “I understand”❤️🦋 Tears are unspoken prayers ❤️

  I could hardly believe when I looked on the coles online website the other day and saw that the Coles dark and light fruit cakes that we used to buy for and sell at the Strathalan Kiosk for $3.50 is now $6.50 to buy at the store! It is a big price increase!  Our life is like a “fruit cake”! It is made up of joys, sadness, laughter, and tears, all mixed together like the ingredients in a fruit cake. Throughout each day the beautiful love of our Lord blends all that happens in our lives together, and we know that He is always caring for us ❤️🌼

  I thought that this picture of lots of varieties of biscuits that was on the Arnotts website was great! They sell so many types of biscuits! Everyone has their favourite Arnotts biscuit whether it be plain, cream, chocolate, dry or savoury! When I think of Milk Arrowroot, Milk Cofffee and Marie biscuits, they seem to be comforting biscuits. They are plain, but also nice.   

When we think of our loving Lord Jesus, we give thanks that in our pain, He brings comfort as He promises to be with us through it. Our pain remains, but His loving comforting  presence is also there. I can hardly take in when I think of all the pain He lovingly went through for us ❤️

        This week is special Easter week when we are especially thinking of the very loving death and triumphant resurrection of our beautiful Saviour and Lord Jesus. Each day of the year though may we give heart -felt thanks to Him for what He did for us on the cross ❤️ He has died, He has risen. He will come again ❤️

 The Australian Grand Prix was held last weekend. I am not really “into” racing car contests, although I did enjoy watching the  “ Cars” Disney movie! For the people though who enjoy watching car racing it is a fun and exciting time for them.  The cars go a lot faster than the donkey who carried Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem for the loving birth of our beautiful Saviour. But what a special job that the donkey did! I can imagine that he stayed at the manger with Mary and Joseph whilst she gave birth, and would have smiled at the first loving cry from our Lord ❤️ Another  donkey and her colt  also had the very special privilege of carrying our Lord as He rode into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, as a King ❤️

  People were talking on the radio the other day about girls and boys names that are popular, and orders that have now “fallen out of fashion”. Some names seem to always be popular. The top 3 boys and girls name in Australia for 2022 were Charlotte, Amelia and Olivia, and Oliver, Noah and Charles. When I was at school, I didn’t know anyone with those names…although my special teddy is called Oliver! 

  The most precious name ever and ever is  Jesus our Loving Lord and Saviour! Just saying His Name is like saying Love! May we rest in His promise of always being with us whatever our day and life is holding ❤️

 The other day, Dad bought some pretty pansies and Johnny jumpups that we have in pots on the table outside our side glass sliding window door. They are  lovely to look out at see. Johnny jumpups are very tiny flowers, but are so pretty! We are just tiny people in the whole wide  world but it is so very special that each of us is much loved by our loving Lord Jesus and loving Heavenly Father❤️They care about each of us💖

   Yesterday was the World Day of Prayer. I could imagine people all around  the world meeting in all sorts of places, buildings, Churches, homes, and numbers of people, all praising, praying to, worshipping, and listening to the Word of our loving Lord Jesus and loving Heavenly Father ❤️ He hears every prayer and sees every tear❤️

    Autumn began this week.We may still have a few “Summery” weather days though. I have lovely memories of when I was a little girl, and Mum,Dad and I would go into the Fitzroy Gardens in Autumntime and I would really enjoy walking through the Autumn leaves and trying to catch the leaves as they fell from the branches! It was so much fun! Our beautiful and loving Lord Jesus and Heavenly Father paint the Autumn leaves their very nice colours,  and send their love continually. Leaves have veins on them, and remind us of our  Saviour’s hands of love on the cross ❤️

 We received a fridge magnet in our letterbox from a electrician company that was advertising their electrical services. They had their phone number printed on it, as well as their website. People could “stick” the magnet on their fridge, then it would be seen when they went to open the fridge, and the company could be rung if there was an electrical issue. 

 Much, much more better than a magnet is our loving Lord’s love, that surrounds and encircles our heart. We can call out to our Loving Lord Jesus and Loving Heavenly Father any time and all through the day, whether in pain, or fearful, or happy, or sad, or joyful, or tired. They lovingly hear us❤️

  It is Valentines Day this week! ❤️I send loving thoughts to everyone that is reading these Chirpings! The best words that I can ever post are the  verses : “God is love” ( 1 John 4:16) and“For  God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16) 

     I was reading the other day about “ international day for…” Every day of the year has a certain celebration! Last Saturday ( Feb 4^th) was “ international day for eating ice cream for breakfast” and also “ international day of making home made soup” and “international day of jumpers/sweaters”!! That is a great combination of themes to celebrate the day! I can just imagine lots of people around the world having got up in the morning and enjoyed a nice bowl of cold frozen Neapolitan ice cream for breakfast, putting on a jumper/sweater to warm themselves up, then later on that day enjoying a bowl or cup of boiling hot home made soup for lunch or dinner ! 

   Each day is the best day to celebrate the beautiful and everlasting love of our loving Lord Jesus and loving Heavenly Father❤️They love us and always will❤️May that always and ever encourage us.

 Dad and I always do the Wordle puzzle each day. It is a 5 letter word puzzle that is on the New York Times newspaper site each day. Millions of people from all around the world do it daily! The words are sometimes quite tricky! You have to work out what the 5 letter word is, and you only have a maximum of 6 “ tries” to get it right! Each time you type in a word, you are told if the word contains that particular letter ( the letter turns orange) and if the letter is in the right position ( the letter turns green) 

  The best ever 5 letter word in the whole wide universe is JESUS! Jesus is a synonym for love! He is our Saviour, our Shepherd, our King, our High Priest and our Lord! ❤️
