HAVE I EARNED TOMORROW?
Is anybody happier because you passed this way? Does anybody remember that you spoke to them today?
The day is almost over and its toiling time is through: Is there anyone to utter now a kindly word of you?
Can you say tonight in parting with the day that's slipping fast, That you helped a single person of the many that you passed?
Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said? Does the one whose hopes were fading now with courage look ahead?
Did you waste the day or use it? Was it well or sorely spent? Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent?
As you close your eyes in slumber, do you think that God will say: YOU have earned one more tomorrow by what you did today? Ann Landers

The Gift of Welcome
March 5, 2017
Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers.
Hebrews 13:2
The dinner where we hosted families from five nations remains a wonderful memory. Somehow the conversation didnt splinter into twos, but we all contributed to a discussion of life in London from the viewpoints of different parts of the world. At the end of the evening, my husband and I reflected that we had received more than we gave, including the warm feelings we experienced in fostering new friendships and learning about different cultures.
The writer of the book of Hebrews concluded his thoughts with some exhortations for community life, including that his readers should continue to welcome strangers. For in doing so, some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it (13:2). He may have been referring to Abraham and Sarah, who as we see in Genesis 18:112 welcomed three strangers, reaching out to them with generosity and treating them to a feast, as was the custom in biblical times. They didnt know that they were entertaining angels who brought them a message of blessing.
We dont ask people into our homes in the hope of gaining from them, but often we receive more than we give. May the Lord spread His love through us as we reach out with His welcome.
Lord God, You are the source of all that we have. May we share what we receive, that You may be glorified.
When we practice hospitality, we share Gods goodness and gifts.
In Hebrews 13 we are reminded to show hospitality to strangers (v. 2). This is about more than inviting friends over for Sunday lunch. In Bible times, travelers and strangers were often invited to stay in peoples homes. The hosts would provide food and a place to sleep along with safety and protection. We can serve others by opening our lives and homes to the people God places in our path. Can you remember a time when others showed hospitality to you? How did that make you feel? In what ways can you show hospitality? Adapted from Welcoming the Stranger. Go to ourdailybread.org/lookingdeeper.

I met LTC Norman Rupp at the post office and talked to him several times. He flew 285 missions in Viet Nam. He is gone now, cancer I suspect. Like the cowboys in the old westerns they seem to fade off into the sunset.

To: All
Dear God: I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman, Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine feel alone or forgotten.
O Israel, hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is loving kindness, And with Him is abundant redemption. And He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
Psalm 130:7 & 8

The voice is still bad. I went to rehearsal Thursday and sub-vocalized, so I can sing tomorrow if I'm able. I will miss next Sunday due to the St. Patrick's Day Parade in D.C.

"I Vow To Thee My Country" Choir Of King's College, Cambridge (Click)
"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love; The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
And there's another country, I've heard of long ago, Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know; We may not count her armies, we may not see her King; Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering; And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase, And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.
May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.
May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.
G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.
