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!

Dog Philosophy
The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue. -Anonymous
Don't accept your dog's admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful. -Ann Landers
If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went. -Will Rogers
There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face. -Ben Williams
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. -Josh Billings
The average dog is a nicer person than the average person. -Andy Rooney
We give dogs time we can spare, space we can spare and love we can spare. And in return
dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made. -M. Acklam
I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult. -Rita Rudner
A dog teaches a boy fidelity, perseverance, and to turn around three times before lying down. -Robert Benchley
Anybody who doesn't know what soap tastes like never washed a dog. -Franklin P. Jones
If I have any beliefs about immortality, it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven, and very, very few persons. -James Thurber
If your dog is fat, you aren't getting enough exercise. -Unknown
Ever consider what our dogs must think of us? I mean, here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul -- chicken, pork, half a cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth! -Anne Tyler
Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. -Robert A. Heinlein
You can say any foolish thing to a dog, and the dog will give you a look that says, 'Wow, you're right! I never would've thought of that!' -Dave Barry
Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole. -Roger Caras
If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then give him only two of them. -Phil Pastoret
(AND for your cat people...taada) Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. -Robert A. Heinlein
"Meow!"
Have a great day...and keep smiling!!!!!

LOL! Are those your cats?
Our beloved cat died last Nov she was 16 years old.
We certainly get attached to our pets.
My husband has had about 6 dogs in his lifetime BUT he remembers one that he constantly talks about, Rosie.
It is rough when we lose a beloved pet.
We will be getting a dog soon, I would like a Scottie like Barney, wish I could get one of his offspring. It's amazing how animals have their little individual personalities. Thank God in His wisdom he gave us faithful friends that offer unconditional love to enjoy, our pets.

Father Knows Best
LISTEN TO ODB RADIO: Real | MP3 | WMA

READ:
2 Samuel 16:5-12It may be that the Lord will look on my affliction, and that the Lord will repay me with good for his cursing. 2 Samuel 16:12
Unlike David in 2 Samuel 16, we like to take revenge, silence our critics, insist on fairness, and set everything right. But David told those who wanted to defend him: Let [Shimei] alone, and let him curse; for so the Lord has ordered him (v.11).
It seems to me that as the years go by, we growas David didin the awareness of Gods protective love. We become less concerned with what others say about us and more willing to give ourselves over to our Father. We learn humble submission to Gods will.
We may, of course, ask our opponents to justify their charges, or we may meet them with steadfast denial if they charge us falsely. But when we have done all we can do, the only thing left is to wait patiently until God vindicates us.
In the meantime, its good to look beyond the words of those who vilify us to the will of the One who loves us with infinite love. We need to say that whatever God permits is for His ultimate good in us or in otherseven though our hearts break and we shed bitter tears.
Youre in Gods hands, no matter what others say about you. He sees your distress, and in time will repay you with good. Trust Him and abide in His love.
Each day we learn from yesterday
Of Gods great love and care;
And every burden we must face
Hell surely help us bear. D. De Haan
It takes the storm to prove the real shelter.
Bible in One Year: Bible in One Year: Job 32-33; Acts 14

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; Dutchess, The Mayor, DollyCali or GodBlessUSA 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.
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
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 and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty, strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
