Pretty much a given. I know that nearly my whole family did...on my Mom’s side.
We do seem to be never satisfied. I had curly hair and craved
straight...the girls with straight hair tried everything to
curl theirs to no avail! LOL!
Guess it’s human! :)
I absolutely agree with that! You could just tell!
Sorry!! Better LUCK next time! :)
How true!
The second man was propped up against a palm tree and acting so calmly it drove the first man crazy. "Don't you understand?!? We're going to die!!"
The second man replied, "You don't understand, I make $100,000 a week."
The first man looked at him quite dumbfounded and asked, "What difference does that make?!? We're on an island with no food and no water! We're going to DIE!!!"
The second man answered, "You just don't get it. I make $100,000 a week and I tithe ten percent on that $100,000 a week. My pastor will find me!"
I thought it was kind of cute it tells us to never give up on our Loved Ones coming to Jesus. I heard it several years ago in church...when I was going to an informal Assembly of God. I’ve got a couple of boys (men now) who really need to come to Jesus. They are not bad boys, they just don’t want to know my Savior. And that makes me sad.
Thank you Meg. I’m always a day or two late but love seeing the pretty graphics and ‘thoughts’.
Thank you my friend!
Oooh, that is really lovely jaycee, thank you for pinging me.
Thank you, potlatch! Hope you had a nice weekend!
Gail, once their ‘heart - strings’ are pulled by Him - they will have no choice. Prayer is the BEST way, I have found. It works every time. (I have prayed for one, for over three years - and I’m not giving up.) And, don’t YOU.
((((HUGS))))
Passing by, to say ‘hello’ to you, too!
(Guess this will go to someone eles. LOL!)
It has been a very busy day for me, and I am now trying to catch up on my pings. Sweet dreams! ZZZZZZzzzz
All of us - every one of us miss pings - it’s nothing personal - ever..........because we are friends here.
((((HUGS))))

That last post was meant for all - #1875 - so many times we post something that touches our heart, and it goes un-noticed - but, guess what? It’s still in our hearts, isn’t it? Hugs to you all! Goodnight, and sweet dreams to everyone.
Have you ever wondered how an airplane pilot knows how to get from point A to point B? Most likely, he uses VOR, short for VHF Omni-directional Radio Range, a navigational system invented in the early 1950s. It still guides many aircraft to their destination today. The pilot sets the course of the aircraft on his dial. If the aircraft drifts from that set course, the instrument shows the pilot that the plane is deviating so he can correct it to align the aircraft to the set course again.
The nation of Israel in Isaiahs day badly needed a reliable VOR system. And God wanted to be that for them. But despite Gods warning, they decided to align with Egypt (Isa. 30:1-2). God graciously promised that one day, however, He would be their navigator: Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk in it. Whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left (v.21).
Today, Christians have an internal navigational system. Jesus sent the Holy Spirit, who lives in us to guide [us] into all truth (John 16:13). If you need direction as to where to set the course of your life, dont rely on your own way. Use Gods VOR system. He will surely lead you in the right direction.

Good morning, Billie.
I think those flowers are orchids. It is great to have you playing with graphics again.
I’ll check your opening soon.
