Only Stranger

Oh, yes, there are worlds out there,
Of taunting mists and zephyred air.
Whose sunsets have a stellar quality.

Where bumble-buzzers hum on by,
Not knowing that they cannot fly,
In search of tasty tidbits savory.

Where feathered lobsters clack their claws,
In posting all the latest laws,
For all who would be peaceful to obey.

And drifting globes of bubble-fruit,
Entice the searchers for such loot,
And faery-gremlins love to dart and play.

Fine poetry is posted there,
For tasteful denizens to share,
And surely there’s a friend so duty-driven,

Who puts the bon mots up in lights,
To hoots and hisses of delight,
All for the joy that they were given!

A flying saucer lands on a mountain lake. The pilot went swimming.



The pilot emerged from the fog to say a few words about alien rights.



Background: On July 8, 1947, witnesses claim a spaceship with five aliens
aboard crashed on a sheep-and-cattle ranch outside Roswell, NM, an incident
they say has been covered up by the military. On March 31, 1948, nine
months after that day, Al Gore was born complaining of global warming.

Inadequate Treatment

Read:
Jeremiah 6:10-19

They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly, saying, "Peace, peace!" when there is no peace. —Jeremiah 6:14

Bible In One Year: 2 Kings 7-10

A sprained ankle, so common during summer activities, can cause lingering problems if not properly treated. Minor sprains respond well to RICE: rest, ice, compression, and elevation. But people who ignore a serious sprain and keep going in spite of the pain run the risk of a greater injury.

A podiatric surgeon says we often get used to sprains and put up with them, but "even minor sprains should be rehabilitated so they don't happen again." And, of course, a major injury always requires proper treatment.

When Jeremiah spoke the Lord's message against the corrupt spiritual leaders of Judah, he said: "They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly, saying, 'Peace, peace!' when there is no peace" (Jeremiah 6:14). He repeated the accusation of inadequate treatment for serious spiritual injury in 8:11, then asked, "Is there no balm in Gilead, is there no physician there . . . for the health of the daughter of my people?" (v.22).

Jeremiah's searching question inspired an old spiritual that proclaims the message of hope and forgiveness we still need today: "There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole; there is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul."

That balm is the healing power of Jesus for our deep wound of sin. Have you applied His balm? —David McCasland

Sometimes I feel discouraged, and think my work's in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again.
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul. —Trad.

The Great Physician always has the right remedy.

"Sometimes I feel discouraged, and think my work's in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again.
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin-sick soul."
—Trad.

Good morning, Rus. Thank you for Our Daily Bread.

Good morning, OESY.

"The pilot emerged from the fog to say a few words about alien rights."

LOL .... I imagine he demanded a drivers license and free health care. :)

"nine months after that day, Al Gore was born"

Wasn't Howard Dean born under similiar circumstances?

Happy Flying Saucers.
