A merry heart under the Saskatoon Tree


This is such a sweet little book.  If you see it at a thrift store, get it.  If it looks worn out, it's because it is.  I love the little animals and the plot.


It was all gray.  Just old drippy weather. Foggy.


The book tells us how each little animal was dealing with it.............or not!


Then the dew began to drip off the tree........the sun was coming out.


The little animals started to get tickled...........and to forget about their gray and drippy day.


They even danced.


Then they said...........WHAT FOG?

Proverbs 17:22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

Too bad they wasted a whole morning.
Don't waste a morning, afternoon, weekend, holiday, night................letting a broken spirit dry your bones.

I read this book to my kids back in the 1960's. Now (Jan 2013)my daughter gave her copy back to me and I reread it. Lovely, charming book. My copy is still in good shape.

We were having-----LAUGHING WEATHER! said all the animals together. Up on his limb, the little gray owlet blinked his eyes and said, "It doesn't really matter much If days are bright or gray; It's the way folks take them That makes times dull or gay!"

Don't Be Idle

This is Zephyr. She is the most discontent, unhappy cat I've ever seen in my life. She is selfish plain and simple. All she can think about is HER belly. This is not done in silence. When I get up (early), she's been up for hours wasting away. She's died of starvation 8 times. Don't be like Zephyr. The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs   "Who are the men who are most discontented?  but idle persons-- for they lie around and find fault with everything."   (page 50-51) Zephyr is an unhappy cat. Not a happy camper.   How about you? IDLE lazy, slothful, work-shy (ha ha) shiftless, inactive, sluggish (like a bad drain) without purpose DISCONTENT dissatisfaction with circumstances displeasure Have you no weeds to pull? No list to make or finish? No bread to bake? Nothing to mend or fix? No corner to clean? Nothing to learn? No letter to write? No project to fin...
