It got so warm in the den we had to turn the air on for the afternoon hours. Memphis has had a weird winter so far, much warmer than the norm, but then that is just the way weather cycles in GOD’s timing.

That is like TN, Memphis has much milder weather than they do on the east end of the state, where they get more cold and more snow. We are lucky to see a 1/2” some years. Others we get a foot. Just the threat of snow will close the schools here.

We are always anxious to hear news of our FR friends when they are sick or having surgery.

I covet your prayers today as I go for MRI’s/X-RAYS on my spine, I know the pain will be bad, as it always is, and that they find the cause of the pain and that it is operable. I already know that the Lumbar L-3-5 are bulged, but they are going higher up and getting the T zone too. Not much they can do for the C-3-7 as they are nearly bone on bone. But getting the pain gone from my back and legs would be a blessing.

A Search For The Top Ten

March 15, 2012

BibleGateway, an online Bible resource, looked at the viewing habits of some of their 8 million monthly visitors. They found that John 3:16 was the most-searched-for verse in 2010.

I don’t think it’s surprising that it would be number one on the list. It tells us that God loved us so much that He sent His Son to rescue us from our sin and give us everlasting life. Number 10 on the list is Jesus’ commission to His followers to spread that good news: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations” (Matt. 28:19). Also in the top 10 are Jeremiah 29:11 and Romans 8:28 about God’s good plans and purposes for His people.

The Scriptures are filled with truths to search out and share. In Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible, the psalmist shared his thoughts about the Word and his desire to search it and be taught by God. He said, “Oh, how I love Your law!” (v.97). Our Bible reading for today shows some of the psalmist’s reasons for loving it: It gives him wisdom and understanding, it restrains his feet from evil, and it is sweet. Therefore, it’s his meditation “all the day.”

Let’s keep taking the time to read the Bible. The more we search the Word, the more we’ll grow in our love for it and its Author (v.97).

Search the Scriptures’ precious store—
As a miner digs for ore;
Search, and you will surely find
Treasures to enrich the mind. —Anon.
The more you read the Bible, the more you’ll love its Author.

Read: Psalm 119:97-104

Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day. —Psalm 119:97
Bible in a Year:
1 Samuel 4-7

It is difficult to convince children to eat whatever is served when visiting friends or relatives.

Happy Thursday, LTOS.

We're supposed to be 'above the fog-below the snow' however, we tend to get both. Not much snow but when it happens, you can bet the kids get a snow day. People really don't know how to drive in it!

You're most welcome. Most of us don't even realize when that date comes around each year!

Congrats on your 11th! :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Psalm 119:153-160

King James Version (KJV)

“153.Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.

154.Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.

155.Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.

156.Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy judgments.

157.Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

158.I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.

159.Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy loving kindness.

160.Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
...”

Prayers that your MRI's will Go Well, Dear Sisters in Christ,
And that the Terrible Pain you have Both Endured will be Completely Remedied by the Surgeons, through Jesus' Love.
May our Caring Lord Work through them to Bring Healing and Relief from All Pain.

(((((Loving Prayers Ascending)))))

I knew it was this month, but couldn’t remember the day. Looking at the calendar, it’s the day before my marriage to the late Igor...(Beware the Ides of March...)

Thanks again for noticing! LOL!
