[Knitting A Conundrum]

This morning, my puter is in disk maintenance mode (and has been for about 3 1/2 hours) and I can't get to my pinglist. I'm on hubby's computer. It may be a couple more hours before I can get back on mine. I sort of went through old messages, trying to get people's names. If I pinged you and you didn't want the ping, I apologize. And if I missed you, it wasn't intentional!

But anyway.

O Lord,
we thank you for the ways you have helped and aided our president, leaders in congress and our nation. Lord, if it is your will, may those in our country who will not listen to your voice be shown to others for what they are, and have their eyes opened to the darkness of their ways.

May every opening for your light to spill into people's hearts bear fruit.

Please, Lord, help those of us fighting for the way of righteousness you have taught us to act as you would have us act, with your love and wisdom guiding each step of our way.

Help keep our nation and people safe, so that we can be the light set on the hill that you would have us to be.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

This article was in my local newspaper. I tried to find a link, but couldn't, so I'll just type it out. It proves that the illegal problem CAN be solved:

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN LUIS RIO COLORADO, MEXICO:The arrival of U.S National Guard troops in Arizona has scared off illegal Mexican migrants along the border, significantly reducing crossings, according to U.S. and mexican officials.

U.S. authorities said Monday that detentions along the U.S.-Mexico border decreased by 21% in the first 10 days of June compared to the same period last year.

Detentions dropped 23% along the Arizona border, and 31% along the Texas and New Mexico border.

The 55 Utah soldiers who arrived June 3 are the first of some 6000 to be dispatched along the border.

[Think how well it will work when there are more troops!!]

Keep the prayers going that this keeps trending.

May the angels bless you,

as they look down from above,
and guide you down the pathways
as they share with you their love.

May the angels bless you
and be there to ease your pain,
holding you within their arms
when you can't tolerate more strain.

May the angels bless you
when the night time seems too long,
and help you to see the joy in life
as you yourself grow strong.

May the angels bless you
with the kind words they impart,
touching deep within your soul
the beauty that lives inside each heart.


Deus vobiscum

and Amen.
