[JustAmy]

Good evening, Tulip.



Happy Swallows Day!

Hope you had a good Saturday.

Do you have school next week?
Drive carefully!

[DollyCali]

Swallows... funny Amy. I will check them out next time I am at Rock Roll Hall of fame(which will be next week I believe). I am a pretty strong fan of soul music but don't know this group..

I took a "short nap" at about 6 EST.. and got up at 12:30!!!.

I have thoroughly enjoyed all the humor, wit & warmth here on this thread... Lots of Clever FReepers to be sure.

Celebrate Palm Sunday.

Do you have church next week?

Drive carefully!

[OESY]

I just found this, and had a laugh. I think Bush would enjoy it too, which is part of his charm.

[DollyCali]

I liked BOTH of your pix. Off to church. Everyone have a wonderful Lord's day.. I hope to tell you later about a great Palm Sunday I had a few years ago in Haiti.. worshipping in a "church building" made entirely of palm fronds..

The Way To Praise Him

Read:
Luke 19:28-38

Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! -Luke 19:38

Bible In One Year: Judges 5-8

The triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem a few days before His death focused attention on Christ as Lord. When Jesus sent His disciples to get the colt He was to ride, He instructed them to tell its owners, "The Lord has need of it" (Luke 19:31). And when the crowds shouted their praise, they quoted Psalm 118:26, saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!" (Luke 19:38).

Jesus is Lord. His is "the name which is above every name" (Philippians 2:9). The word Lord refers to His sovereignty. He is the King, and every believer in Him is a member of His kingdom.

We make Jesus the Lord of our lives by bowing to His authority as King. This means we live in obedience to Him. Don't be like the man who claimed to be a Christian but chose to live in sin. When his minister confronted him, he glibly replied, "Don't worry, pastor. It's okay. I'm just a bad Christian."

It's not okay. Not at all! Not for a member of Christ's kingdom (Luke 6:43-49).

On this Palm Sunday, make sure you're honoring Him with your deeds as well as with your words. Then you can join with others in proclaiming, "Jesus is Lord!" -Dave Egner

Worthy is God of our worship,
Worthy is He of our praise;
Magnify Him with thanksgiving-
Gladly our voices we raise. -Anon.

To follow Christ is to take Him as your Savior and your Lord.

When He Was On The Cross

I'm not on an ego trip...
I'm nothing on my own
I make mistakes, I slip and fall..
just common flesh and bones
But I'll prove some day, just why I say,
I'm of a special kind
For when He was on the cross, I was on His mind

For He knew me... yes He loved me
He whose glory makes the heavens shine
So unworthy of such mercy
When He was on the cross, I was on His mind
The look of love was on His face
Those thorns were on His head
His blood ran down that scarlet robe
And it stained crimson red;

Though His eyes were on the crowd that day
He looked ahead in time
For when He was on the cross, I was on His mind
For He knew me... yes He loved me
He whose glory make the heavens shine
So unworthy of such mercy
When He was on the cross, I was on His mind...

For when He was on the cross, I was on His mind.

A dog thinks: Hey, these people I live with feed me, love me, provide me with a nice warm, dry house, pet me, and take good care of me... They must be Gods!
