“My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Cor. 12:9). Paul responded with these troubling words: “When I am weak, then I am strong” (v.10)....”
__________________________________________________________

God is our strength, it is our weakness that makes God's strength come into us in all fullness. We do not want to crowd our any of God's strength ... rather we desire to make all the more room possible. Thank you, Father for the treasure of Your Word. It is with gladness and joy we accept Your strength for our souls, spirit, mind, body and heart. All praise and glory is Yours, in Jesus name, amen. Amen

Great scripture verse as always ..

The email of a while back, about the WOODEN BOWL, is a good example of how the aged are treated.

My own take on it is ... the majority of people today do not want to be responsible for anything or anyone, but their own selves. Divorce, abortion, drug addiction, work alcoholics, porn addictions, most criminal activity, murders, etc. Society has become unstructured, selfish anything goes.

Of course there are Christians that live as best they can to believe in God; and still are consumed with the troubles and work of the days. Older people are not regarded for their life wisdom, as it was in the past, and still is important in some cultures.

This is too negative. However, true. MO

HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER THAT THY DAYS MAY BE LONG UPON THE LAND. THINGS WILL GO WELL FOR YOU, THAT YOU MAY HAVE LONG LIFE ... PARAPJRASED

GOD HELP US IN OUR DAY, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.

THIS MUST BE LAID AT THE FEET OF AL (THE BORE) GORE, THE
U.N. AND THE POLITICALLY BASED 'SCIENTISTS' OF THE WORLD!!!

Baby Girl Survives 3 Days With Bullet Inside Her
Monday, March 01, 2010

A baby girl survived three days with a bullet in her chest
as she lay alone beside the dead bodies of her parents and
toddler brother in Argentina, the Daily Mail reported.

Francisco Lotero, 56, and Miriam Coletti, 23, shot their
7-month-old daughter and son, 2, before killing themselves.
The pair allegedly agreed to a suicide pact over fears
about global warming, according to the Daily Mail.

The couple's son, Francisco, died instantly after being
shot in the back, the paper reported.

The baby girl, whose name has not been released, escaped
the apparent murder attempt after a bullet from her dad's
handgun missed her vital organs, according to The Daily Mail.

Worried neighbors alerted police three days later, after
discovering the massacre. Paramedics then rushed the blood-
soaked baby to a hospital.

The miraculous survivor is now recovering in a hospital in
the town of Goya in northern Argentina and is out of
danger, according to the paper.

Police discovered an apparent suicide note by the girl's
parents in which they outlined their fears over global warming.
