I was trying to explain Amy’s Place to my grandson..I told him we rejoice together and grieve together..and laugh in between. We are an online family...who loves God , our country,our troops and the Constitution...also pets and pretty things! ;o)

That's a PERFECT description!!! My sister called me about a hour ago to check on me. Asked me what I was doing... and I told her I was " walking down the thread at Amy's Place, finding comfort"!!!!LOL

told her to sign up and come join us... but she is shy!

Good Morning :) I look forward to hearing the Mockingbirds again. For the past couple years, there is a Mocker I hear singing during the night.
Your posts and photos are terrific!

Have a wonderful day!

Thank you, MEG33!

I get a lot of my Scriptures here:
pictureapromise.com

I don’t want to take credit for somebody else’s art! :-)

Also, a fun thing to do is Google Images. Just enter your favorite Scripture passage into IMAGES, and you will be very surprised what comes up.

Be sure and wear a flame suit and goggle when you do THAT though, because there are some WEIRD ones! LOLOLOL!

The world is a harsh and strange place sometimes

Indeed it is.
Thanks for the tip!

Don’t Forget

READ: Deut. 8:1-2,10-18

Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments. —Deuteronomy 8:11

One of my favorite Far Side cartoons is captioned “Superman in his later years.” It shows the elderly Man of Steel perched on a window ledge, ready to leap, as he looks back and says, “Now where was I going?”

Forgetfulness happens to us all, and while our occasional lapses may be amusing or annoying, a lack of memory toward God can be disastrous.

With the people of Israel poised to enter the Promised Land, Moses challenged them to “remember that the Lord your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness” (Deut. 8:2) and to “beware that you do not forget the Lord your God by not keeping His commandments” (v.11).

Forgetting God can spring from: Testing (vv.2-4). God allowed His people to hunger and then provided manna. When we lack the necessities of life, it’s easy to feel that God has somehow forgotten us. Satisfaction (vv.10-11). Abundance or need may produce spiritual amnesia because both cause us to focus on ourselves, not on God who provides. Pride (vv.12-16). If prosperity brings a feeling of self-accomplishment, then we have forgotten God.

Humility, obedience, and praise help us remember God’s faithful provision and care. Let’s not forget to thank Him today for all He’s done.

Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget Thine agony,
Lest I forget Thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary. —Hussey

Never let the abundance of God’s gifts cause you to forget the Giver.

Bible in One Year: Deuteronomy 8-10; Mark 11:19-33

For those of you who have enjoyed the Eagle Cams this season, Norfolk VA will probably be hatching the first egg within 24-48 hours. The cam on this eagle usually zooms in quite close for a great look!

Just thought I’d let you know!

I do it every day when I do the Prayer threads!

It’s all in the “Search Words” that you use.

[pollywog]

Can you ping me to your prayer thread??
