Psalm 101 ~ I will make music

 

A longtime ago friend, 

Margaret Harris

who told me about the Beauty of St Patrick's Cathedral

in Harrisburg

Has gone Triumphant into God's Kingdom

Margaret's husband, Bill,

was our Episcopal Priest in Pennsylvania.

What a beautiful soul.

God Love You!

Psalm 101

A Psalm of David.

I will sing of steadfast love and justice;

    to you, O Lord, I will make music.

2 I will ponder the way that is blameless.

    Oh when will You come to me?

I will walk with integrity of heart

    within my house;

3 I will not set before my eyes

    anything that is worthless.

I hate the work of those who fall away;

    it shall not cling to me.

4 A perverse heart shall be far from me;

    I will know nothing of evil.

5 Whoever slanders his neighbor secretly

    I will destroy.

Whoever has a haughty look and an arrogant heart

    I will not endure.

6 I will look with favor on the faithful in the land,

    that they may dwell with me

he who walks in the way that is blameless

    shall minister to me.

7 No one who practices deceit

    shall dwell in my house;

no one who utters lies

    shall continue before my eyes.

8 Morning by morning I will destroy

    all the wicked in the land,

cutting off all the evildoers

    from the city of the Lord.

Margaret's Husband was more than ten years older than Margaret. Bill lived well past the age of 95. And the Church certainly benefitted from their love and service for over 6 decades.

There is peace to know they are alive and well in the Kingdom of God.  And one fine day, we will sing to the Lord again. We were fortunate to have them for Thanksgiving 10 years ago. Father Bill had recovered from heart failure at age 92.  A Celebration!

God is good in all of our years. To open our eyes to His Plan and Blessings. 

More picnics, more flower picking and arranging. Maybe County Fair flower entries. Many beautiful skies. Seeing the Elk. Trips near and far. A life well lived, yesterday, today and tomorrow.

In all Times

and

All Seasons

My mother, Margaret and I got to hold a baby black bear 

cub

during Bear Rescue.

Cameron County, PA is Black Bear Relocation.

In Cameron County, Pennsylvania, black bear relocation is typically handled by trained professionals, and it's generally not permitted for the public to trap and relocate bears themselves. 

Here's a more detailed explanation:

• Professional Expertise Required:

  Relocating bears is a complex and potentially dangerous process that requires specialized knowledge and equipment. 
• Contact Local Wildlife Authorities:

  If you have concerns about aggressive or problematic bears, contact your local wildlife department or the Pennsylvania Game Commission. 
• Reporting Bear Encounters:

  Report any bear injuries to humans, pets, or livestock to the appropriate authorities. 
• Relocation Distance:

  Bears are usually relocated 50-100 miles from the capture site to try to prevent their return. 
• Pennsylvania Game Commission:

  The Pennsylvania Game Commission is the agency responsible for managing wildlife in the state, including black bears. 
• Bear Population Growth:

  Black bear populations have increased significantly in Pennsylvania, providing more opportunities for people to see bears, but also increasing the potential for human-bear interactions. 
• Bear Habitat:

  Black bears prefer large forests with a variety of food sources like fruits and nuts. 
• Hibernation:

  Black bears hibernate during the winter months, often in hollow trees or excavations resembling groundhog holes. 

Margaret made

more Wedding Dresses

than any person, I have ever known.

Bill married them.

Margaret and her son

bought an 1860 black iron, gas stove from the

Emporium Hardware store for some

incredibly low sum. A deal!

But they had to move it down 3 flights of stairs.

They had no problem making sure this beauty

was completely operational.

I found a copy, in 7th grade,

and put it in my doll's house.

Margaret, Bill and Bobby

found a farm and restored, burnished and beautified the farmhouse

to 360' views of the Gigantic Maple trees

like the photo

and the Creek my sons loved. 

Joe Fragale, local neighbor and saint, 

cleaned the months of snow

from their drive. All 600 feet of driveway.

John 14:27

Peace I leave with you

 My Peace I give to you. 

Not as the world gives do I give to you. 

Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

Let the Light

of Jesus Christ

shine more brightly.

The Love.

The Light.

The Peace.

For

ALL.

And in Jesus 

This Hope.

Faith and Love 

- we will rise up 

Believing Jesus.

Amen
