Mornin Amy. Just doin a little campaigning. :)
To: JustAmy
Thank you!
Hmm...
Anger, Sorrow
We let them come in peace
Let them into our lives.
Why do they hurt us?
How can they justify?
They killed 3,000 souls that day
Faces all with family ties
Loved ones,
Died.
A blur of faces caused this rift
A single man sent those men
and he won't stop till we stop him
that bastard's gonna die.
He may not have pulled the trigger
Nor did he have to give the order
he may have just sat there gloating
while loved ones' corpses lay there bloating.
He claims my loved ones died for cause
how dare he claim them for his own
They died without a warning
they died that grim September morning.
Now we have him on the run
We won't stop until we are done
We'll chase him through all the lands
Till we catch him,
or his blood is on our hands.
-Roy Hall, 2004

My day before election prayer.
Oh Heavenly Father, thank you for the countless blessings you have bestowed upon us all. Only through Your Word and Your Guidance do we receive the bounties of Your Love.
Please guide my hand and the hands of all your humble servants in selecting the earthly leader of our nation in tomorrow's election.
Please help us to understand Your Will through the outcome, and please bless this nation and the world in these trying times with Your Love and Mercy.
Through our humble prayers we seek Your Will and do Your Work here on earth.
Amen

The Pine Looper
Read: Jeremiah 17:1-10
He shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river. Jeremiah 17:8
Bible In One Year: Jeremiah 24-26; Titus 2
In the summer of 1992, a fire blackened 4,500 acres of forest about 35 miles north of Atlantic City. One homeowner saw a fireball with 60-foot flames come roaring up across the street from his house, before veering away. The Associated Press quoted him as saying, "I've worked 25 years of my life here. The thought of having it gone in 10 minutes makes you want to stay for the last possible minute."
The fire was difficult to contain because of dry conditions. The forest was dry despite rainfall, partly because of an insect called the pine looper, which defoliates trees.
The dry-tree condition behind this New Jersey fire has a parallel in the history of Israel. Jeremiah said that his countrymen had become like dry shrubs in a desert rather than green trees by a river (17:6-8). Even more alarming, he said they had aroused the fire of God's anger (v.4) by trusting in man and departing from the Lord (v.5). For Christians today, it's life's fiery trials that threaten to scorch our souls if we're trusting in our own strength.
Father, forgive us for making ourselves dry and leafless. Without Your mercy, we would be consumed when the heat comes. Teach us to root ourselves in the river of Your sufficiency. Mart De Haan
The person who relies upon
The Lord's sufficiency
Is like a tree that's planted by
Deep waters flowing free. Sper
The fires of life will not destroy you if you're watered by the River of Life.

We are traveling in the footsteps
Of those who've gone before
But we'll all be reunited
On a new and sunlit shore
Oh when the saints go marching in
When the saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
And when the sun begins to shine
And when the sun begins to shine
Oh lord I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Play a Game of Chess Day?
Queen Sacrifice
Osama and W were playing a game,
Of Chess on the board of Life,
Before W was really settled in,
Osama drew out his knife.
With smirking contempt he toppled a Queen,
And smiled at his cleverness.
In calm dismay W studied the board,
He knew how to deal with this mess.
His knights ranged out, and gathered in,
A number of pieces themselves,
W studied each one for a glimpse into,
The evil that sometimes delves.
Step by step W moved out his men,
Controlling the game from then on,
No benefit given of dubious doubt,
And the contest was totally won.
Osama conceded. His kingdom was lost,
He hadnt the best strategy.
But rather than quit, he smiled once again,
Suggested, Best two out of three?
