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!

Bush - Cheney 04
To Our Finest Family.....
Today is a special day - do you know why? Because you're here. You make every day special, and we thank you for that!
That being said - today is *your* day - *you* decide the theme for the day - first one here to post the secret word is *it* - King or Queen for a day. To find the secret word, drag your mouse across the white space below the spotlight. Make it fun, make it silly, make it simple, make it difficult, make up the rules for the rest of us to follow. :)
The secret word is "important"
Whatever the Theme, Have a Totally Terrific Tuesday!

Unexpected Alligators
Read: Matthew 13:18-23
When tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles. Matthew 13:21
Bible In One Year: 1 Chronicles 4-6; John 6:1-21
A friend of actress and comedienne Gracie Allen once sent a small, live alligator to her as a gag. Not knowing what to do with it, Gracie put it in the bathtub and then left for an appointment. When she returned home, she found a note from her maid. "Dear Miss Allen: Sorry, but I have quit. I don't work in houses where there is an alligator. I would have told you this when I started, but I never thought it would come up."
Some people who say they'll serve Christ are quick to leave when trouble comes. In Jesus' parable of the soils, He pictured the various responses that people have to the gospel. For example, a person may seem to accept God's truth, but he stumbles in his faith when difficulties arise (Matthew 13:20-21). Such troubles test the sincerity of one's faith and expose the weakness of one's commitment to Christ.
But someone may say, "Shouldn't our Lord tell us up front what is involved in following Him?" He does. He appeals to us with one invitation: "Trust Me." If we let trouble or disillusionment shake our faith, we are breaking the spirit of the trust that brought us to Christ in the first place.
Father, when life brings us the unexpected and we feel like quitting, help us to be faithful to You. Mart De Haan
Day by day and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment,
I've no cause for worry or for fear. Berg
Tough times can teach us to trust.

I'm pretty disgusted with them, too.
What can you expect from the state that brings us Teddy "The Swimmer" Kennedy, Barney "The Gay Rights Activist-I Like 'em Young" Frank and John "Ketchup-Boy" Kerry?
Yeccccch! :-(

Good morning, Pip - I updated to include your nephew's fiancee. See if this is correct: your nephew & his fiancee, and your niece & her boyfriend.
Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Mama_Bear; Dutchess; Aquamarine, and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nations leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.
