Me too, M.L.

George and Laura are a special couple who love our Country with all their hearts. (not like what’s in the W.H. now!)

The people who indulge in those vile things SHOULD GO CRAZY. No tears here for those crazies. They don’t deserve to live in our wonderful country.

President Bush and Laura have been in Zambia remodeling a health center. They were painting and he was covered in paint from head to toe and loving every minute of what they were doing.

When he was President, people in this country said he hated black people and he loved the blacks just like he loved the whites. I really don’t think he has any hate in his heart at all, for anyone. He’s a true Christian and loves all people. No one in the world could keep me from loving the Bush family and I know you feel the same. (I didn’t mean to rattle on so long but you know me...LOL!)

Yes - West Texas has the most beautiful blue sky - and it’s so BIG! LOVE your flag, and can just see the breeze giving your Old Glory the ‘waves’.

(((((Amen to your Post, Dear Jaycee!!)))))

I Read Recently that More People Blame President Bush for the Bad Economy than they do Obama; I Almost Fainted when I saw that. :(
That Shows the Power of the Liberal Media, to Brainwash People into Actually Thinking President Bush Created the Economic Problems,
While they Hold Obama Blameless for it; it just Boggles the Mind! :(

I Pray with All my Heart that our President is Vindicated in the History Books from All the Unfair, Cruel, and Evil Lies that have been Invented about him.

(((((Goodnight, Dear FRiends)))))
Our Lord Grant us All a Peaceful and Restful Night.

Looking Back

July 7, 2012

George Matheson, best known for the hymn, “O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go,” wrote another song titled “Ignored Blessings,” in which he looks back to “the road gone by.” It was by looking back he could see that his heavenly Father had led him all the way.

God has an itinerary for each of us, a “course” that we must run (see Acts 20:24 and 2 Tim. 4:7). Our route is charted in the councils of heaven and rooted in the sovereign purposes of God.

Yet our choices are not irrelevant. We make decisions every day, large and small, some of which have life-altering consequences. The question—aside from the confounding mystery of God’s sovereignty and human choice—is this: How can we discern the course to be run?

The answer is clearer to me now that I’m older and have more of the past to look back on. By looking back, I see that God has led me all the way. I can truthfully say, “God has been my shepherd all my life to this day” (Gen. 48:15 NIV). Though clouds surround the present and I do not know what the future may hold, I have the assurance that the Shepherd will show me the way. My task is to follow Him in love and obedience, and trust each step to Him.

O Father of light and leading,
From the top of each rising hill
Let me cast my eye on the road gone by
To mark the steps of Thy will. —Matheson
We can trust our all-knowing God for the unknown future.

Read: Genesis 48:8-16

God . . . has fed me all my life long to this day. —Genesis 48:15
Bible in a Year:
Psalms 133-136

I have been following them on their trip and I sure enjoyed your video! They are such wonderful people! I love them both. Too bad that the crazy MSM never reports on any good news for this great, kind couple! They only love their little baby Obama.....they make me sick worshipping O the way they do!

Thanks, yorkie!

Hi, JC! What struck me in the video was “WHAT CLASS!” We haven’t seen “class” or “dignity” in the WH for over 3 years, now!

Post 277 was meant for you, too, Gail. Wish we could see who all we send our posts to......but after we post five or six names, we get “.....” and can’t see the rest of the list.

Have a GREAT weekend!
