One day, a little boy visited a doctor for a vaccination. After the doctor gave him an injection, he tried to bandage the boy’s arm.

“I think you’d better bandage the other arm, doc!”, said the boy.

“But, why? I’m supposed to bandage the injected part of your arm to let your friends know not to touch it.”

“Doc, you really don’t know anything about how my friends behave!”

I’ve landed and taken off at that airport 3 times...once a redo because we had plane trouble...and it IS frightening to
see nothing but water till you hear the tires squeal. LOL!

Trusting the pilot is a must...as we must trust our heavenly Pilot.

Thanks for our beautiful lesson from God’s Word, Rus!

Challenges comes to all of us.

Do we trust God? Do we know he is Sovereign? Do we rely on His Word? We are tested, chastised, and strengthened by life challenges.

As a man thinks ... so he is. What do we put before our eyes, what do we give our ears to hear, what do we think on? What comes out of our mouth is what we have put into our self. We are to guard our heart

today we are under constant barrage of worldly influences, TV, Iphone, IPad, ear phones, radio, music, biased teaching and reporting with an agenda, inter net,all medias, and most all books are written with a definite slant toward a particular teaching, Churches are conforming to worldly influences. Divorce, abortion, immorality, are rampant, ETC.

IT IS LIFE NOW IN BIG LETTERS!!!

INDEED ... BRING IT ON ...

BE READY AND ARMED WITH THE WORD OF GOD. IT IS ENOUGH.

HAPPY THURSDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!

---

Glencar Waterfall, Co. Sligo, Ireland

From “The Stolen Child”

Where the wandering water gushes
From the hills above Glen-Car,
In pools among the rushes
That scarce could bathe a star,
We seek for slumbering trout
And whispering in their ears
Give them unquiet dreams;
Leaning softly out
From ferns that drop their tears
Over the young streams.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.

William Butler Yeats

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

And now I JUST found out that my teacher, mentor, and best friend is moving away. Just got word.

His girlfriend and her daughter now have no place to stay, because they can’t afford the rent without him, so they will be moving in with me.

With the dog and cat.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUUU!!

~~A Terrific Thursday To All~~

LOYALTY

You can't buy loyalty, they say,
I bought it though, the other day
You cant buy friendships, tried and true
Well just the same, I bought that too.
I made my bid and on spot
Brought love and faith and a whole job lot
Of happiness, so all in all
The purchase price was pretty small
I bought a single trusting heart,
that gave devotion from the start
If you think these things are
NOT FOR SALE
Buy a brown-eyed puppy with a wagging tail

God bless you FRiend! *hugs*

This wonderful poem and the great wagging it’s tail dog reminded me of what I saw on T.V. this morning! The funeral of one of the Navy Seals recently killed was today and at the church was his DOG, lying right by his master’s casket! It was truly heart breaking!! You talk about loyalty!! Thank you!
