Do you remember the prodigy whitewater boards ?

[Aquamarine]

No, that was before my I started using the Internet for a news source. Why do you ask?

God Bless Our Military

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; The Mayor, DollyCali and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation's leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.

~~~~~~~~~~   ~~~~~~~~~~

We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.

Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult day that faces each of us and our country. Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

BTW, I reported my nephew home from Iraq last year....but he's still on the list. (Not that we mind the blessings from God, mind you!)

[anniegetyourgun]

Great one, JH2! And to think that Dean is running around trying to convince folks that the "D" party is the one with moral values. BWWAAHHHHH!

[Dan Lacey]

[DollyCali]

John and Aqua... wonderful and funny. Outstanding layout & graphics Aqua and LOVE the new military prayer & the pledge!!!! Inspiration keeps coming from you & the other Sistahs!

Dan thank you for this wonderful morning toon.. (Dutchess, you would have liked that a few weeks ago? Dan did you see Dutchess' great thread on the 10 commandments? Commandments Thread

I am sure all have heard by now of the bombs in England. I hope Snugs/family is okay & will check in with us soon!!!

[Aquamarine]

Didn't get the message about your nephew, am glad to hear that he made it home. Have removed him from the list.

[Aquamarine]

Oh that is so good. *snicker*

[Aquamarine]

Good Morning Dolly. I've been up for a while and watched the tragedy in Britain unfold here on FR. May God be with them.
I think Snugs lives in Kent, am not sure how close that is to London.

Am happy that you liked my work. John's essay are always a challenge I learn so much while working on them.

(BTW ... the Ten Commandment Post was mine) :)

[dixie sass]

Lets take time to remember the injured in London and pray that the other threats don't take place.

Lost Books?

Read:
1 John 4:1-3

Every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh . . . . is the spirit of the Antichrist. —1 John 4:3

Bible In One Year: Isaiah 1-3

Everybody likes a good story, but many people are taking the best-selling novel The Da Vinci Code as historical fact.

Central to the book's plot line is the allegation that "lost books of the Bible" have been suppressed by the church for centuries. These lost books claim that Jesus married Mary Magdalene and had children with her. This radically misrepresents history and is misleading many people.

These alleged "lost books of the Bible" were found at Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in 1945. They deny the biblical Jesus and promote goddess worship, self-deity, and secret knowledge.

So why did the church exclude these books from the Bible? Because the documents did not meet the criteria for authentic Scripture, which involved several central questions: Was the writer someone Jesus had chosen as an apostle? Did the book have widespread acceptance among church leaders? Did God's Spirit speak through it? The "lost books" did not pass these tests. All the books we have in our New Testament did.

When people question the trustworthiness of the Scriptures, we need to give them a respectful and an informed answer. It might just make them want to know more about our Bible—and our God. —Dennis Fisher

God's words of pure, eternal truth
Shall yet unshaken stay,
When all that man has thought or planned
Like chaff shall pass away. —Anon.

To the wise, God's Word is sufficient.
