Be thankful for the memories and bless them on their way and ask all good things for them/him/her.

this morning this song was on my mind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

JOSH GROBAN LYRICS

“You Raise Me Up”

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

a great song ... beautiful and heart lifting ...

They are so sweet and innocent at that age. Sometimes when they reach teenage years, something goes wrong. Not with all kids but in today’s times, more often than need be. God Bless those who do the right thing and don’t make the wrong decisions in life.

}Jesus said, I will have mercy, ... not sacrifice ... Matthew 9:13

____________________________________________________________
“King James Bible
But go ye and learn what [that] means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A somewhat hard to understand verse.

Jesus gave us mercy, he was the sacrifice. We are to forgive others and not want to make them sacrifice ... we all make mistakes ... be forgiving.

What think you?

The influence of the world.

I agree with you in your prayer for them to do the right thing; and not to make bad decisions. Whatever two of you agree on anything believing, it shall be done, Amen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 18:19

Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on ... shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
... more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? ...

The students in the US continue to fall on the average or below average scale, Internationally (According to the Program for International Student Assessment - PISA).

Hey, thanks for the info!

I would really miss baking cookies.

I’ve been called “The Cookie Monster”.

Love to make brownies once a month or so too.

I heard about the applesause substituting, but was not sure how to do it.

I’ll have to check the web for recipes helpful “food challenged” gals like me.

Cheers!

You brightened my Monday. Thank you!

My goodness, you don’t expect them to spend time on their studies, do you? They have to hurry and get on facebook, myspace, twitter, and whatever to see how many friends they have. Maybe they will be looking for someone to bully for a while for entertainment....who knows? Sad, isn’t it?
