Me thinks congress-critters should be required to pass a urine test too.

Years ago in the state of Washington, they had a Blue Law... no alcohol sold on Sundays as well as election day.

My dad felt this didn’t make a whole lot of sense. Voters were supposed to be sober on election day, but state legislators had no restrictions when they considered and voted on legislation.

“Caturday” has taken a hiatus. The sixth day of the week, will, in further days, be known as “Dog-ur-Day”.

Sorry I am just getting around to some threads tonight...

The fires are still going. The one closest to us ( Station Fire in La Canada)left our skies very smokey all day. It is about 3 miles north of us as the crow flies. 1500 acres, no structures down. The Palo Verde Fire is about out but 6 homes were damaged or lost.
Not a good day for fires. It has been triple digits here in Los Angeles.

Looking forward to Fall!!

The Power Of Love
The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love. —Zephaniah 3:17

The documentary film Young@Heart gives a rollicking look at a senior chorus of 24 singers whose average age is 80. Filled with humor and poignant moments, the film includes this remarkable singing group’s deeply moving performance at a New England prison. When the concert concludes, the singers walk into the audience, greeting the surprised prisoners with handshakes and hugs.

The inmates’ unexpected amazement at this personal touch reminds me of the book of Zephaniah in which the prophet brings a powerful message of God’s presence and love to His people during a dark time: “The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing” (3:17).

According to Bible teacher Henrietta Mears, Zephaniah “begins with sorrow but ends with singing. The first of the book is full of sadness and gloom, but the last contains one of the sweetest songs of love in the Old Testament.”

God’s love for us is always astonishing, especially when it touches us at a low ebb of life. During our darkest times, the Lord comes to us with His joy, His love, and His song..

If your heart is filled with sadness,
Or you struggle with despair,
Turn to God, who’ll bring you gladness
When you sense His love and care. —Sper

In God’s garden of love, you are His forget-me-not.

Bible in One Year: Psalms 126-128; 1 Corinthians 10:19-33

Lovely message, Mr. Mayor!

"In God’s garden of love, you are His forget-me-not."

What a wonderful thought for all of us! Have a blessed Saturday, Rus!
