A FRiend emailed to me last night, that when she is searching for a graphic under a totally innocent subject - every once in awhile - a porn graphic shows up!
I think that should be monitored more closely by the staff at Google. (What if it was a child, looking for a graphic for Geography, and up pops a naughty graphic?)
by Billy Graham
Jesus teaches us for whom we are to intercede. How startling His instructions and His example! He tells us to "pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you" (Matthew 5:44). We are to plead for our enemies, asking God to lead them to Christ and for His sake to forgive them.
In the first words that Jesus uttered from the cross after the heavy nails had been hammered through His hands and feet, He interceded for His crucifiers, saying, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do" (Luke 23:34). How many of us have ever spent time praying for our enemies?
We are also told in Scripture to pray for the conversion of sinners. I once listened to a discussion of religious leaders on how to communicate the Gospel. Not once did I hear them mention prayer. And yet I know of scores of churches that win many converts each year by prayer alone. If there is a person of our acquaintance who needs Christ in his or her life, then we need to start praying for them. We will be amazed at how God will begin to work.

Prayer
Lord, we are thankful for Jesus' example in prayer. Help us to intercede for the people around us, believing that You will work in their lives.
We pray in Jesus' name.
Amen.

Good to ‘see’ you too Meg.
Hi pam. I was looking through JimRob’s comments to see what was said about the down time yesterday and I came across his comment about his sister ‘being home again and on heavy medication now’.
From reading that, and all the comments and prayers being sent, it didn’t sound good.
A number of years ago I wrote this quote in the front of my Bible. I failed to write who provided the quote...
There taint no such thing as a INNOCENT bug or spider! Them wee ones have a nasty bite! lol
Old Joe Clark
Old Joe Clark, he had a house
Eighteen stories high
Ev'ry story in that house
Was filled with chicken pie
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
Fare ye well, I say
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
I'm a-goin' away
I went down to Old Joe's house
Stayed to have some supper
Stubbed my toe on the table leg
And stuck my nose in the butter
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
Fare ye well, I say
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
I'm a-goin' away
Raccoon has a bushy tail
'Possum's tail is bare
Rabbit has no tail at all
'Cept a bunch of hair
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
Fare ye well, I say
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
I'm a-goin' away
Old Joe Clark had a mule
His name was Morgan Brown
And every tooth in that mule's head
Was sixteen inches around
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
Fare ye well, I say
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
I'm a-goin' away
Old Joe Clark had a yellow cat
She would neither sing or pray
She stuck her head in the buttermilk jar
And washed her sins away
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
Fare ye well, I say
Fare ye well, Old Joe Clark
I'm a-goin' away
