Word of the Day
beneficence \buh-NEFF-i-suhns\, noun:
The practice of doing good; active goodness, kindness, or charity; bounty springing from purity and goodness
From my grandfather Verus I learned good morals and the government of my temper. From the reputation and remembrance of my father, modesty and a manly character. From my mother, piety and beneficence and abstinence.
--Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

[S]he had disseminated around her what seemed an involuntary aura of beneficence and goodwill.
--John Bayley, Elegy for Iris

On this Day in History 1781 British General Lord Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown,
effectively bringing an end to the American Revolution. Pleading illness, Cornwallis did not attend the surrender ceremony; his second-in-command, General Charles O'Hara, carried Cornwallis' sword to the American and French commanders. As the British troops marched out to surrender, the British bands played the song "The World Turned Upside Down."

On this Day in History 1812 One month after Napoleon Bonaparte's massive invading force entered a burning and deserted Moscow, the starving French army was forced to begin a hasty retreat out of Russia

It is a blessing.

Thank You for Your eternal love.

Thank You Jesus.

I am asking for special protection for our troops Lord as they serve our country abroad and and in the USA.

Prayers for protection, peace and comfort for the troops and their families.

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE :

A man comes home from a night of drinking.

As he falls through the doorway, his wife snaps at him, "What's the big idea coming home half drunk?"

The man replies, "I'm sorry honey. I ran out of money."
