And I thank you, Meg. Yesterday’s thread was gorgeous with so many beautiful birds, gifts from God. I went to sleep in the lazy boy last night and woke up at 12...gosh! Had to make the coffee and finish up so I could go up to bed! And slept good.
Johnn, I was wanting a good old country biscuits and sausage gravy breakfast this morning and I searched your menu and it wasn’t on there, so I guess I will have scrambled eggs and sausages with milk and orange juice.
The Massachusetts election tomorrow is about the Obama-Pelosi-Reid Health-Control Bill which will take our freedom as surly as anything done by King George III in the 18th century. Question is: Have the people of that state become socialist sheeple or will the patriots of Massachusetts once again stand against tyranny?
The Spirit of Massachusetts is the Spirit of America |
In 1955, when the South was still highly segregated, Emmett Till, a black teenager from Chicago, visited relatives in Mississippi. After Emmett dared to talk to a white woman, two white men brutally murdered him. An all-white, male jury found the two not guiltyafter deliberating for barely an hour. The two men later confessed to the crime in a Life magazine article.
Following the verdict, Emmetts mother said, Two months ago I had a nice apartment in Chicago. I had a good job. I had a son. When something happened to Negroes in the South, I said, Thats their business, not mine. Now I know how wrong I was. The murder of my son has shown me that what happens to any of us, anywhere in the world, had better be the business of us all.
Making anothers concerns our own is what Leviticus 19:18 calls us to do: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus quotes this verse and interprets it as not placing any limitations on loving those around us (Matt. 22:39; Luke 10:25-37). Our neighbor doesnt just mean someone close by; its anyone who has a need. We are to care for others as we care for ourselves.
To love our neighbor means to make the persecution, suffering, and injustice of our fellow human beings our own. It is the business of all who follow Christ.
Good Morning Gail...
Oh I’m sorry about the broken pipe in your church! Glad it is okay for now. Are you building a new church or joining up with another? Just wondering why the “ close down”?
Have a great day...
Polly
Good Morning Meg...It’s Monday Morning and rainy here in Los Angeles, although I expected much more rain than we’ve got so far. Definitely a busy day for me too...
Lovely arrangement of flowers in the snow!
Good Morning Johnn!
I’ll take those butterflied porkchops!! Coffee w/creme and a side of freshly squeezed OJ if you happen to have some left!
Polly
Good Morning Jaycee! Sounds like you slept well in that recliner!
Amazing how some recliners can be almost as comfy as bed!
Have a great day...
Good Morning fewz!
I am so in prayer for the election in Massachusetts tomorrow. I want to see this country begin to turn back away from pure socialism that we are being led into by Obama!
Good Morning Mayor... a very good reminder that we are to “ love our neighbor as our self. “..
The only churches growing are the ones catering to the young, which leaves us old timers feeling left out. When I was widowed in '04 I tried several different churches (as I couldn't go back to my old one because of the memories), and they are all going to to loud music, to modern music and forgetting that the older folks are even there. What's wrong with blending both kinds of music into a service? I like some of the comtemporary music, but prefer old time gospel...I just don't want a steady diet of comtemporary music it doesn't have the same feeling as the older stuff like I'll Fly Away, Sweet By and By or Amazing Grace. Most of the older music just needs to be uptempoed to make it sound better, I know that for a fact as my late husband was a great keyboardist who did just that.
I came out of the Assembly of God a free flowing Holy Ghost filled church into the Methodist when I remarried, and the Methodist are very formalized and tame in there services. :(
Oh Gail, I hear you loud and clear!!!!!! I am nudging 70 and SO miss a Sunday Service with hymns and gospel songs. We do have two different services and we go to the more traditional, because I cannot handle the loud music and bands...
Your story is being repeated all across the land, sadly.
Polly
I finally viewed all those links, fewz! Good work!
Good reminder in the message this morning, Mr. Mayor! But do I have to love Obama as my own self....? I couldn’t help it...just had to add that in~~~~!
On to Red Friday now. :)
Not only “O”, but Reid, and Pelosi, too. (*smile*)
Meg, your Red Friday graphic of the woman in red walking down that tree-lined, snow-covered path to the house in the distance is just wonderful!
