Hi Kathy! Hope all is well with you!
on the Ball Field and on the Battle Field.
Read: Psalm 27:4-14
When the Polaroid SX-70 camera was introduced in 1972, it revolutionized photography. An article by Owen Edward in Smithsonian magazine described the camera as a miracle of physics, optics and electronics. When a photo was snapped, a blank square would emerge from the front of the camera and develop before our eyes. People were sold on speedy, immediate results.
Oswald Chambers saw a strong connection between our desire for the immediate and lust: Lust simply means, I must have this at once; it may be a bodily appetite or a spiritual possession. . . . I cannot wait for Gods time, God is too indifferent; that is the way lust works.
In Psalm 27, David wrote of his waiting on God during a time of great trouble when there was no solution in sight. Instead of giving in to despair, he maintained his confidence that he would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living (v.13).
We live in a world that worships the immediate. When it seems there is no sign of our deepest longings being fulfilled, the psalmist urges us to cling to the eternal God. Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord! (v.14).
Hi everybody!
((((HUGS))))
Thanks, Galz, for yet another wonderful American hero! So sad that he died before he could come home!
Man! They didn’t wear enough padding while playing hockey back then! LOL!

Good morning Everyone.
Today will not be a normal post. I am sick with the flu and feel terrible; my eyes even hurt and I can hardly see to type.
What the heck is up with our weather pattern? I know my memory sucks, but I can’t recall us getting so much snow from storms that come in from the west.
We may have to pay someone to come shovel snow for us as both of us have been sick all weekend. Mr. Beachy has had it longer and so is on the mend; I’m getting worse. I ache everywhere and coughing makes is worse...now the runny nose adds another element to deal with. Haven’t been this sick in years.
Boy, what a wonderful history Hobey had in his short life. And such a tragic end. God Bless him.
