Here’s a verse that takes me back to days on the farm when large animals were slaughtered. An unpleasant vivid memory .
For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than a two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and interests of the heart.
To be so fully known by God through the study of His word is pleasant or unpleasant. I guess we have to choose.
Hebrews 4:12
I wanted you to see the beauty of the meadow before all the leaves are gone, so here it is.

The small trees in their green plastic are still standing ready for winter. Many of the old oaks have a little gold with brown trunks showing. They were all in the midst of a frosty, misty afternoon today as were quite a large number of bedraggled spider webs.


Here are a few jokes:
What do you call a spider without a Web?
Offline.
What did the procrastinating spider say to the fly?
Catch you later.
What is the difference between a spider and a web designer?
A spider loves finding bugs in his web.
Then, if you like proverbs, here are a few:
If you want to live and thrive, let the spiders run alive.
Spanish proverb
He avoided the fly and swallowed the spider.
Portuguese Proverb
Words are like the spiders’ web shelter for the clever ones and a trap for the not so clever.
Madagascar Proverb.
It is night here and day somewhere else in our dear world.
Take care.
Sandy 🙂
Beautiful autumn and winter colours Sandy! Your appreciation of nature is just wonderful to witness. Thank you for sharing it with us 🌺☀️
Oh, I wish you were still here to walk with us! Thank you for your kind words.
Your capture of the gate, inviting us to the meadow, is beautiful! So much depth, I want to follow the path! 😊
Thank you… please do come and walk through.🤣…it is such a lovely place. Photography is such a joy.
Mom and Dad loved walking in Popeswood. Those spider quotes😄🕷️🕸️
Yes, they spent time there, especially Dad looking at the birds. He was terribly worried one year that he hadn’t seen the British sparrow.
Wow! What a beautiful field. 🕸️🕷️ Loved your riddle too. 🌷
Yes, it has played an important part in our lives for nearly 40 years.
That is amazing!
