I google’d some ‘Madonna arms’ images this morning - and there are others just as bad, too.

Here’s one:

You poor thing, I thought he was having a beer bash of the whitehouse lawn

“I’m expected there. The light is on and my heavenly Father is waiting for me. I suppose He’ll ask, just like my father used to, “How did it go?” “Pretty good,” I’ll say. “But it sure is good to be Home.””

Amen and Amen. Thank you, for the beautiful devotion.

Isn’t West Texas pretty rugged country, geography-wise?

[jaycee]

Her arms look awful. One network showed her arms yesterday, I think it was Fox and they were talking about how terrible she looks. I checked both your links...same ugly!

[jaycee]

His ‘beer bash’ is tomorrow evening...big deal! He should learn to keep his mouth shut! LOL!

[Lady Jag]

Actually you’re right, the rain was better than this humidity. For the first time that I can remember my hair frizzed! I want my gills back.

Dehydration was something Michael Jackson did to look skinnier. Perhaps that’s fairly common among some celebrities.

Her arms look different to me than any I’ve seen.

Both humans and dogs love to play well into adulthood, and
individuals from both species occasionally display evidence of having a conscience.

Labradors are lousy watchdogs.
They usually bark when there is a stranger about,
but it is an expression of unmitigated joy
at the chance to meet somebody new, not a warning.
~Norman Strung

Cute opening, Amy!

from Acts 28 ...
“23. They arranged to meet Paul on a certain day, and came in even larger numbers to the place where he was staying. From morning till evening he explained and declared to them the kingdom of God and tried to convince them about Jesus from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.

24. Some were convinced by what he said, but others would not believe.

25.They disagreed among themselves and began to leave after Paul had made this final statement: “The Holy Spirit spoke the truth to your forefathers when he said through Isaiah the prophet:

26. “ ‘Go to this people and say,
“You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”
27. For this people's heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a]

28. “Therefore I want you to know that God's salvation has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will listen!”[b]

30. For two whole years Paul stayed there in his own rented house and welcomed all who came to see him.

31.Boldly and without hindrance he preached the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

verses 26-28 ... are a excellent stating of the majority of people today. In the churches too.
Thank You, Father, for Your Word.

God help us in our day, God bless America, in Jesus name. Amen.

Oooops! Thought I had an error so I thought I deleted it but evidently didn’t get it done. I asked for removal!

[JustAmy]

Yes.
Yes, I heard you the first time. :)

Sorry it took me so long to answer; I was getting laundry started.

Friday is getting here too fast.

[JustAmy]

Hello, my name is JustAmy.
Bet you thought that I had left FR. :)

Yesterday, I went to Fresno to get last minute stuff taken care of.
Guess what! Jaycee's and GeeBee's cloud showed up. :)
After being in Office Depot less than 15 minutes,
I came out to a dead battery.
I called AAA; didn't need a new battery, just a charge.
The AAA guy said it was the heat.

I think my running is finished.
I need to finish laundry, get a hair cut and pack.

Please don't forget me.
I should be here off and on today and tomorrow.
I really do plan to come back soon. :^ )

Hope everyone is having a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.

[jaycee]

LOL! They removed it for me....I hate when that happens! I just went to drug store to get new medicine to see if it helps with the pain, until I get to Orthopedist again!

[JustAmy]

Beautiful, JOHNN. Thank you.
