Hate to post and run, but it is bedtime out here on the left coast.

Good night to our night owls and lurkers. See you all in the morning!

Pinging my connection to Alaska.

Thackney offers his Houston friends some wonderful pictures, delightful summer weather reports, brutal winter weather reports and a wonderful view of real life in Alaska.

I think he will always consider himself a Texan, though.

Enjoy!

More Than Good Advice

Read:
John 10:1-15

He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. —John 10:3

Bible In One Year: Matthew 16-19

A few years ago, I was invited to speak on the subject of guidance. In my preparation, I opened my concordance to look up the word guidance, expecting to find a long list of verses promising guidance from God. To my surprise, guidance wasn't there. Instead, I found the word guide and a number of verses promising that God Himself would be the guide of His people.

This discovery added fresh insight to my Christian pilgrimage. I was reminded that people who are blind need guide dogs, not guidance dogs! Even if dogs were capable of talking, how unsatisfactory it would be if they were mere bystanders, shouting warnings to the blind from a distance: "Careful now! You're approaching a hole. Watch out for the curb!" No, these mute but faithful creatures escort their sightless companions every step of the way, being their eyes and steering them safely along precarious pathways.

Some people want God to be like a glorified advice bureau. But when our sight is dim and our way is dark, as it often is, we need more than good advice—we need the Good Shepherd to lead us (John 10:3,11).

As we follow Christ each day, we'll have all the guidance we'll ever need. —Joanie Yoder

Though guidance is our need each day
We need not search to find our way;
We only need a faithful Guide
And strive to stay close by His side. —D. De Haan

Looking for guidance? Follow Christ, your Guide.

[GailA]

Good morning every one.

[thackney]

Do not forget the iditarod reports. We have recorded proof that rednecks have made it to Alaska.

And where fashion takes on a new meaning...

[thackney]

Having a few friends over for dinner has a different meaning up here...

[Gucho]

Thanks for the ping. A beautiful state indeed.

---> Guess?

[thackney]

You can see a lot of wildlife up here. Some of them are not very good at hiding.

And they like to peek and look at you too.

[thackney]

Great views, just not the greatest roads. After all, guardrails really are a luxury.
