"Im so glad that she was able to communicate her desires."
I agree Polly. When they can indicate what they want and don't want, it makes it easier on the family, not having to make those decisions.
I do hope your sister Marilyn is resting peacefully and not in pain. God Bless her and you, Polly.

This is so sweet, Dubya. I think I will copy that and share with others. I pray you are having comfortable days and not too much pain, as you indicated the other day. You are still in my daily prayers, dear friend.

Throw The Book At Him
August 11, 2011
Things were off to a great start for Jesus at the beginning of His ministry. In Matthew 3, He was baptized and heard the affirming words of His Father, This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased (v.17). But then things took a turn for the worse.
What happened nextJesus temptation in the wildernesswas not a mere coincidence. The Holy Spirit led Him into this face-off between the powers of heaven and hell. Thankfully, Jesus victory in the face of temptation provides a great example when we find ourselves in the wilderness of Satans sinister seductions.
Notice that the tempter caught Jesus at a time when He was tired and hungry. Satan uses the same tactic with us. Waiting for those vulnerable moments, he lures us with the bait of seductive suggestions that offer quick relief and opportunities for self-advancement. When facing such challenges, its important to follow Jesus examplethrow the Book at Satan! Jesus responded to temptation by quoting Scripture: Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matt. 4:4; see Deut. 8:3). The Bible is full of verses about lust, greed, lying, and other sins. If we tuck them away in our memory, we can use them when under attack. Its our best chance for success!
If we never faced the tempter
With his sharp and fiery sting,
We would never know the victory
That our trust in God can bring. Robert
When Satan strikes, strike back with the Word of God.
Read: Matthew 4:1-11
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
Matthew 4:1

Every one who post to Amy's finds great pics or graphics. It is my most heart felt prayer for our dear FRiend. I lost both my parents to the big C.
Prayers for our dearest Friend Dubya
Prayers up my FRiend, nothing is to big for HIM to remove. We pray oh, Lord, Father of us all that you will remove this cancer from our dear, dear, friend.

How is this one?
GET RID OF OBAMA, KEEP FREE REPUBLIC OPERATING
You won't even miss the 25 or 50 cents you put in a FR Change Jar, but at the end of the month you will have at least $5 to donate so FR can operate smoothly, or you will moan and grown and go into withdrawal when it is down, because of broken parts, or over loaded servers during crisis events. Every day 0 remains President is a crisis day for your wallet and you!
