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!
~ Billie, Mama_Bear, dutchess, Aquamarine ~

Thanks, Mixer!
1) Click on the graphic to open the Calendar. 2) Once there you can click on any month and even click to the right to go into next year. Once you are in the month that you joined FR you will need to click on the number in the calendar and then an add item screen will come up. 3) In the next box enter your name in the "Calendar Text" field and then click on submit. 4) If any of the screens fail to load simply click on refresh in your browser and that will usually fix it. 5) If all else fails or simply if you want me to do this for you send me a FReepmail and I will gladly do it for you. ~Mixer

The Discus Thrower
Read: 1 Peter 5:6-10
May the God of all grace, . . . after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. 1 Peter 5:10
Bible In One Year: 1 Kings 16-18; Luke 22:47-71
A Scottish athlete in the 19th century made an iron discus based on a description he read in a book. What he didn't know was that the discus used in official competition was made of wood with only an outer rim of iron. His was solid metal and weighed three or four times as much as those being used by other discus throwers.
According to author John Eldredge, the man marked out the record distance in a field near his home and trained day and night to match it. For years he labored until he could break the record. Then he took his iron discus to England for his first competition.
When he arrived at the games, he was handed the official discus. He easily set a new record, a distance far beyond those of his competitors. He remained the uncontested champion for many years. This man trained under a heavy burden and became better for it.
When we are given a heavy burden to bear, we need to learn to bear it in Jesus' strength and for His sake. Whatever the burden or suffering, God will use it to "perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle" us, as 1 Peter 5:10 says.
Our burdens can make us better than we ever imaginedstronger, more patient, more courageous, more gentle, and more loving than we could otherwise be. David Roper
Without my trials and hardships
I would never know the way
That You turn burdens into blessings
With every passing day. Oglesby
Today's burdens can strengthen you for tomorrow.

This is so true(of course it is-it's scriptural!). We do well to remember that all our burdens,hurts,suffering,trials not only strengthen us for this world but perfect us for the world to come. Do I suffer?..yes. Is it "fair"? Doesn't matter. I have yet to suffer as my Savior did for me.

Good morning to you, Billie.
I just love that graphic of little hands in big hands, praying.
I wake up today loving the Red, White and Blue more than ever.
I'm keeping the TV sound on mute today as I sit here doing my work ... watching, to be sure I don't miss anything developing ... but I can't bear to listen to all the anti-American sentiment and propaganda anymore ... grrrrrrrrrrr.
Good morning to all our Hostesses and to all the Finest.
(Mr. Mayor, thank you for your daily inspirations and reminders.)
