Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. (Proverbs 4:5 NKJV)
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. (Proverbs 4:7 KJV)
How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver! (Proverbs 16:16 KJV)

Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? (Luke 12:24 NKJV)

Green-breasted Mango (Anthracothorax prevostii) by Judd Patterson
Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count.

Guira Cuckoo by Dan
My friend, Sandra Conner, over at The Right Word Makes All The Difference, has come up with a new kooky experiment. Instead of, or in addition to, her Six Word Saturday posts, she came up with this schedule:
Now, this week, I got a really kooky idea. Why not do a post every day of the week — each day receiving its own number of words?
Monday = One-Word Post
Tuesday = Two-Word Post
Wednesday = Three-Word Post
Thursday = Four-Word Post
Friday = Five-Word Post
Saturday = Six-Word Post
Sunday = Seven-Word PostSo that’s what I’m going to do for the next three weeks. Now, I will be posting other regular posts as well, as the mood strikes me, but I’m going to challenge myself to say something relevant — or at least that means something to me — in the restricted number of words for each day.
Here is her Seven-Word Sunday – 1/24/16
She has challenged us to try to do the same for three weeks. Many times she inserts a picture along with six words on Saturdays. I think I will take the challenge, except the photos or videos here will be, you guessed it, birds. Also, something honoring the Lord.
Since it’s late Sunday evening, I’ll give it a try. Watch for the next post.
Three-Word Wednesday – 1/27/16
Three-Word Wednesday – 2/10/16
End of Challenge

Inca Tern at Lowry Park Zoo by Lee
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. (Proverbs 3:13 KJV)
There are only two rules for this challenge:
1. On 5 consecutive days, create a post using either a past or recent photo in B&W.
2. Each day invite another blog friend to join in the fun.
My fifth nomination is Talainsphotography, because he has a variety of photos, most of them from nature. He “likes birds, bees, trees and flowers with sunsets, rainbows, and with rocky towers thrown in. But don’t be surprised if I throw in something else that is not nature oriented occasionally. If it catches my eye, I’ll put it in and try to give you some background on the photo’s subject matter!”
Again, I was nominated by Our Rumbling Ocean, and I nominated AussieBirder, Sukanya Ramanujan, Through Open Lens, B is for Blessed and now Talainsphotography. Please check out all of these fine sites.
This is the fifth and final one in the 5-day challenge. I trust you have enjoyed them and checking out the sites of the ones nominated. There are many more of you that I could have nominated, but I could only choose five. Maybe another challenge will come along that interests me and I will pick you.

Tern with Skimmer Friends at MacDill AFB Shore 2015 by Lee
And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. (Matthew 13:2 KJV)
But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. (John 21:4 KJV)
There are only two rules for this challenge:
1. On 5 consecutive days, create a post using either a past or recent photo in B&W.
2. Each day invite another blog friend to join in the fun.
My fourth nomination is B is for Blessed, “Receive God’s Grace Every Day,” because Lilkah is a Christian who likes to encourage others with her photos, verses and enjoyable stories.
Again, I was nominated by Our Rumbling Ocean, and I nominated AussieBirder and Sukanya Ramanujan, Through Open Lens and now B is for Blessed. Please check out all of these fine sites.
