Zebra Questions

I asked the zebra
are you black with white stripes?
or are you white with black stripes?
and the zebra asked me,
Is a sandwich bread with filling in it?
or filling with bread around it?
Is the sky blue with cloudy patches?
or is it cloudy with blue patches?
Is a witch mean with evil ways?
or is she evil with mean ways?
Is a friesian black with white patches?
or is it white with black patches?
Is a circle a ring with space in it?
or is it space with a ring around it?
Is a tiger brown with yellow stripes?
or is it yellow with brown stripes?
And on and on and on and on,
and on he went.
I'll never ask a zebra about stripes
Again.

Happy Tuesday, All.

I'm still having some pc problems.
While trying to run the tune-up, it got hung up on the defrag.

I think I need to have someone check it.
Until then, I will continue limping along. LOL

Wishing everyone a lovely Fat Tuesday!

Zebras are so striking. Hope you’re staying warm, Amy.

Lol, I loved reading that and the image of Zebras is beautiful. Our newspaper once posted a huge image of a dead Zebra on the front of the Sports page. There was an article about the “hunter” and where he had gone to kill it, etc...

It bothered me so much that I wrote an angry letter to the editor. Turns out there were a number of angry letters sent!

Rainy and cold here and there was a bad storm in the night that caused tree limbs to knock out the power transformers. They were here this morning cutting limbs off of the trees and they look horrible now, lol.

God shows His wonders in our own bodies, space, the universe, and all the diversity of creation, we are not able to comprehend or understand all of it. We strain at a gnat and swallow a camel. Trust God. Know God's Word, The LORD tells us how to live, and we continue to do what God said not to do, Then we wonder how it is we are sick, or in bad straits, and the world is ("going to hell in a hand basket").

Do we change and turn to God and repent with our whole heart? It is our own disobedience and we do not seem to repent.

Political correctness is binding us so completely we are almost in a straight jacket. Turn to God and praise Him thankfully, and look to Him for all good, in Jesus name we pray. Thank Thee LORD for Thy grace, loving kindness, compassion, goodness, mercy and protection, we ask forgiveness, understanding, and wisdom. Thank Thee Father, we bow before thee in worship.

We praise Thee LORD!
