"Wear Red" Friday
You will soon see a lot of people wearing Red on Fridays. Here's why..... The Americans, who support our troops, are the silent majority. We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are. Many Americans, like yourself, and all their friends, simply want to recognize that Americans support our troops. Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is starting Friday and continuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that every red-blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED.
Word of mouth, press, TV -- let's see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game at a University. If every one of our memberships share this with other acquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guarantee that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED - and make our troops know there are many people thinking of their well-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red! So let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE. FOR US, THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED!! GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Woeful photo. Animals are so pure and real in how they behave. Easy to see. Up or tail down. O that people were so easy to know and read. In some ways animals good teachers.
I appreciate your dedication to the thread. Thanks.

Let us keep those days alive or others will not have any knowledge of them. Good days, before the enemy came forth with’ political correctness’ during the days of desegregation. At the time it seemingly had a bit of a basis. Now look where it has taken us.
God help us in our day, in Jesus name, amen
Be salt and light today, intentionally.
Be blessed.

To: yorkie
O Lord, we pray for Mary, she is experiencing hard times, and perhaps alone. Let not her heart be bitter. Let her see there are others worse off than she; and she might help by being volunteer in a needed place. It would help her see your work in action, and get her mind off herself. Forgive her, and show thy grace to Mary.. I pray that she knows and loves thee, she needs thy help today, Lord, in Jesus name amen.
Nothing helps another so much as getting their mind off them selves and the pity pot they are sitting on all day.

‘I need thee every hour I need thee ...’
I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford
I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh
I need thee, oh, I need thee, every hour I need Thee
I need thee, I need thee, I need Thee every hour
I need Thee every hour in joy or pain
Come quickly and abide or life is in vain
I need Thee, oh, I need Thee, every hour I need Thee
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour
Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/i-need-thee-every-hour-lyrics-jars-of-clay.html ]
Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee
I need Thee every hour, teach me Thy will
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill
I need Thee, oh, I need Thee
Oh I need Thee every hour
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour
Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee”

For All The Friday Cat~People Of Amy's Place
Falling Leaves
I'm kind of small and very new to the scene
A cute, inquisitive ball of fur with eyes of blue-green
I'm on my very first trip Outside, you see
And I'm still a little too small to climb a tree
So, I'll make do by hiding in the curled and noisy leaves
I heard them last night whispering through the breeze
As I watched them fall like big snow flakes from the trees
Then swirl and spin across the ground with a most appealing rustling sound
Curiosity piqued, I went Outside before it started getting light
And was greeted with a most inviting and amusing sight
As the leaves were dancing wearily from their night long fight
I thought that if I could crawl and slide under them I just might
Be able to blend into the background and disappear from sight
I tested my idea as the Sun began to rise up into the trees
Keeping very quiet and still when the Pretty One began looking for me
When she turned her back, it was a moment I just could not believe
So, now my best hiding place is in the falling leaves!
