A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.
A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

FredtheCat here. It's FR Pet Day. People have been asking why I haven't been doing more on this thread and why we're not featuring more of our Finest Felines. So, Giz took the week off and put me to work. I hope you like what I've come up with. But remember, before you start......you must realize, first and foremost...I AM A CAT






How Many Dogs Does It Take to Change A Light Bulb?



Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?



Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.



Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!



Rottweiler: Make me.



Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.



Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please!



German Shepherd: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.



Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.



Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb?



Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.



Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb.



Pointer: I see it, there it is, there it is, right there ..



Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?



Australian Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle ...



Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.



The Cat Answer???...... Dogs do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So,the real question is: How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner, and a massage?????

We have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God.


When life's afflictions batter you
Like waves upon the sand,
Remember to look up to God
And take His outstretched hand

To improve your outlook, try the uplook.

Open At The Top

Read: Hebrews 4:14-16

We have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God. —Hebrews 4:14

Bible In One Year: Leviticus 23-24; Mark 1:1-22


A preacher was delivering a sermon before a large congregation. He pointed out that believers aren't exempt from trouble. In fact, some Christians are surrounded by trouble—trouble to the right, trouble to the left, trouble in front, and trouble behind. At this, a man who had served the Lord for many years, shouted, "Glory to God, it's always open at the top!"

This man's confidence in God is fully supported by Hebrews 4. Because our great High Priest, Jesus the Son of God, has ascended to heaven and is interceding there for us, we have good grounds for trusting Him in the midst of trouble (v.14). Jesus is able to sympathize with our weaknesses, for when He lived on earth He was tempted in every way that we are, yet He never sinned (v.15). His throne is completely approachable and is called "the throne of grace" (v.16).

In Hebrews we're urged to look up from our trials and to approach that throne boldly by faith. Through humble prayer, we will receive mercy for our failures and grace to help us in our time of need (v.16).

Are life's trials and temptations hemming you in? Has the tempter told you there's nowhere to go? Take heart. Keep looking up—it's always open at the top! —Joanie Yoder

When life's afflictions batter you
Like waves upon the sand,
Remember to look up to God
And take His outstretched hand. —Sper

To improve your outlook, try the uplook.
