do you ever read a thread without referencing who replies are made to? just read them numerically as if each person is responding to the poster just before them. It's surreal!

As do I.

I was in the feed store, and I saw someone picking out a large quantity of bird seed.

I said, "I've tried planting that any number of times -- I just can't get any birds to grow."

It's what I call creative stupidity.

I don't do that deliberately, but I do notice the amusing transitions.

I often read the posts sequentially, especially when I am catching up. Sometimes the sequences (and thereby, non-sequiters) are hilarious.

There have been many deliberate fabrications of the "changing staions" discontinuities which are very funny.

"You and I could get thrown out of most places."

I haven't been able to get thrown out of this place yet, despite some pretty outlandish behavior.

I had a comment removed once!!! ... but it was only a misunderstanding. (....Sigh...)

Morning, Noon, Night

Read: Psalm 55:16-23

Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice. —Psalm 55:17

Bible In One Year: Psalms 66-67; Romans 7

In May 2003, a powerful earthquake struck northern Algeria. TV news images showed distraught people searching the rubble for survivors, while others numbly visited hospitals and morgues to see if their loved ones were alive or dead. Families stood together weeping and crying out for help. Their burden of uncertainty and grief could be seen, heard, and felt.

If you've experienced an intense feeling of loss, you'll appreciate the words of David in Psalm 55, penned during a painful time in his life. Oppressed by the wicked, hated by his enemies, and betrayed by a friend, David spoke of the anxiety and anguish that threatened to crush his spirit: "Fearfulness and trembling have come upon me, and horror has overwhelmed me" (v.5).

But instead of caving in to fear, David poured out his heart to God: "As for me, I will call upon God, and the Lord shall save me. Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice" (vv.16-17).

Prayer lifts our eyes from personal tragedy to the compassion of God. It enables us to cast our burdens on the Lord instead of breaking under their weight. When our hearts are filled with pain, it's good to call on God in prayer—morning, noon, and night. —David McCasland

What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer. —Scriven

In prayer, God hears more than words; He listens to your heart.
