Thank you, Dear Amy! Your Bird Pic and Frame are So Beautiful; I Love Everything you Post! : )

God Bless All FRiends for Compressing/Optimizing Pics; my Internet Satellite Failed Yesterday, and the Dial-Up I'm on is 1/2 as Fast as Regular Dial-Up; it's a True Nightmare, Lol.

I Compress and/or Downsize Most of the Pics I Post, but after this Experience I'm Going to Make Sure to Compress them to a Greater Degree for our Dial-Up FRiends.

(((((((God Bless All FRiends)))))))

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Kitty. I enjoy trying to create something
and am happy that you enjoy them.

I hope that my graphics were not too large.
Unless we experience a slow dialup again, we forget what it was like.

I hope you had a marvelous Monday.

[Kitty Mittens]

Thank you Amy, and that Bird is So Cute! I was Sitting Here about to Tear my Hair Out, Lol, over the Hideously-Slow Dial-Up, when I Noticed that my Browser has an Optimizer Setting on it; I just Tried it, and it Compresses Pics Down to Such Extremes that they don't Look Very Good, but at Least I can Freep and See my Pings with the Browser Setting. Whew! I'd Forgotten just how Horrible my Extra-Slow Version of Dial-Up is, Lol!

I hope that my graphics were not too large. Unless we experience a slow dialup again, we forget what it was like.

You and our FRiends Do a Wonderful Job at Optimizing Pics; Hugs! Thank you for your Kindness to those on these Horrendous Dial-Up Connections.

Goodnight to All FRiends. Our Dear Lord Grant us a Peaceful and Restful Night.

[JustAmy]

Good night, Dear Friends.
Thanks for spending time with us today.

Pleasant dreams ..... have a restful night.

Everyone Sings!

READ: Revelation 5:8-14

Blessing and honor and glory and power be to Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever! —Revelation 5:13

Each summer I enjoy attending many of the free outdoor concerts presented in our city. During one performance by a brass band, several of the members briefly introduced themselves and told how much they enjoyed practicing and playing together.

The pleasure of sharing music in community has drawn people together for centuries. As followers of Christ, whether we are in small groups, choirs, or congregations, bringing praise to God is one of the key elements in our own expression of faith. And one day, we’ll be singing in a concert that defies imagination.

In a sweeping vision of the tumultuous events at the end of time, John records a chorus of praise that begins with a few and swells to a company beyond number. In honor of the Lamb of God, who with His blood has redeemed people from every tribe and nation (Rev. 5:9), the song begins at the throne of God, is joined by multiplied thousands of angels, and finally includes every creature in heaven, earth, and sea. Together we will sing, “Blessing and honor and glory and power be to Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, forever and ever!” (v.13).

What a choir! What a concert! What a privilege to start rehearsing today!

Give me a spirit of praise, dear Lord,
That I may adore Your name,
Sing praises from a grateful heart
To the One who is always the same. —Dawe

Those who know Christ now will sing His praise forever.
Bible in One Year: Ecclesiastes 10-12; Galatians 1

I agree on all counts. Diane occasionally uses her brain.

Good Morning! What a blessed realization that someday the redeemed in Christ will sing together around the Throne of our Lord Jesus Christ...Time for me to pull out my Messiah CD...

Ms. Amy, I didn't know you had that picture of me. That was taken when I was still good looking.

I want to dedicate this song to Autumn since it begins today. Bobby Vee may have recorded this song 20 years earlier but I like Leo Sayer's version from the disco era: More Than I Can Say

Oh, I love Leo Sayer's version! Never heard of him before someone told me about him not too long ago. Went surfing YouTube then and found that one there. Love it!

Need to post today's opening - a cute song I found a couple of weeks ago and animated a cute little trio of dogs to go with the beat. :)

Now, this is very cute!! You have the puppies actually dancing in time to the music, Billie, and in cowboy boots no less. Amazing!

Mornin', you two!

[Billie]

[stephenjohnbanker]

LOL!

[Billie]

Hey! Goodness, nice to see you! Thank you, Lori - I'm glad you listened to the music - it makes the animation cuter when you see they're keeping time to the Cha Cha Slide!

(Sorry - I didn't animate these, but know they'd be cute dancing to the music, too!)

[Billie]

Morning, SJB! Poor animals are so confused. LOL

[Diver Dave]

I tried that left foot slide, right foot slide, stomp, stomp and tripped over my cane.

I think I’ll just freeze and watch. :)

[JustAmy]

This is a fun, adorable Opener, Billie. Thank you!!

These dancing dogs are really wonderful.
I listened to the music as I watched the dogs.
You DONE Good. :)

I have appointments at a couple of county offices this morning.
So .... who knows how long I will be gone today.

Have a Delightful Day!

See you this afternoon.

[JustAmy]

Good Morning, Lori.
Happy Tuesday.
How are things down your way?

About the same here; PTA tonight.
They've nominated me for VP.
Depending on the duties, I may ask them to withdraw my name.

Great to see you.
Have a lovely day.

[JustAmy]

Howdy, SJB.
Happy Tuesday.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Happy Tuesday to youze too!
