Our Dear Father, creator and Lord of great love - we ask that you keep the men and women of our military in Your protective care. May the families be immersed with peace and comfort as they proudly know their loved ones are serving for the things that are dear to all of us. AMEN

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; The Mayor; GodBlessUSA; 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.

Good morning. Great review of the MSM's Katrina 1st Anniversary celebration!

[The Raven]

Hah !! Now, that was funny. I suppose if I was a lib and had tenure and my future life style guaranteed - I could sit down and dream things. Got my thoughts wandering....to here:

Einstein died searching for the theory of everything (gravity, Newton, Quantum theories didn't play together nice).

We know that 100% of dumb people vote for Dems. And most of the education crowd. Throw in the government employees, seniors, evironmentalists, and peace-niks and that's a lot of people.

Where does that leave us? We the people who pay for all of this? Well....we have the theory of everything already !! They don't. And we have the guns - but they'll take them soon - along with your wallet.

But the Dems are like Einstein's puzzle to me. Why on earth don't people see through that gobbly gook?

Whoops - I have to go to work.

Hi, hostess with the mostest. Everything's meant to be shared & dispersed widely. Was going to post a few more relevant toons here, but the Cagle site is down so I've yet to post today's toons & have viewers staring at too many red x boxes :-(

[ConorMacNessa]

Good morning, Dolly - getting ready to head out to the Office.

Cagle still dead?

[alwaysconservative]

Thanks, Dolly; and bump for later reading!

[pookie18]

Yes :-( I'm trying to redo today's set with all non-Cagle stuff...if I can do it, could be a while :-( Woof :-(

[DollyCali]

Good morning to all who have checked in thus far... I caught a couple hours sleep before tackling the job of mowing before the remnants of Ernesto visit us in NE Ohio ... but I wanted to make note of two things: Last years 2 day thread of memory & prayer for Katrina vicitims...

Katrina ~ A Nation in Prayer and Sorrow

and a B-I-G thank you to our own NautiNurse(Ms. Hurricane) for this graphic below. I found it at pookie's toons & w/o signature thought it was from one of the syndicates. Great Work Ma'am!!!

If you don't follow the hurricane threads or even know about them, there is great information on the storms paths as well as some light hearted "stuff" during the slow times. A lot of good FR minds contribute along the way. It was a sad irony that another major storm threatened our shores on the anniversary of Katrina.

Tropical Storm (again) Ernesto (aka Cat 5 Media Frenzy)

Okay, now to the lawnmower!!!!!

The Last Word

LISTEN TO ODB RADIO: Real | MP3 | WMA

READ: John 11:17-27

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life.” —John 11:25

When Walter Bouman, a retired seminary professor, learned that the cancer in his body had spread and that he had perhaps 9 months to live, he pondered many things. One was comedian Johnny Carson’s quip: “It is true that for several days after you die, your hair and fingernails keep on growing, but the phone calls taper off.” He found that humor to be a wonderful tonic, but it was something far deeper that sustained his soul.

In Bouman’s newspaper column, he wrote of his greatest source of encouragement: “The Christian good news is that Jesus of Nazareth has been raised from death, that death no longer has dominion over Him. I have bet my living, and now I am called to bet my dying, that Jesus will have the last word.”

In John 11, we read what Jesus said to Martha, a close friend who was grieving the death of her brother. He said: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die” (vv.25-26).

For each “today” we are given, and for the inevitable “tomorrow” that will come, we don’t have to be afraid. Jesus Christ is with all who trust Him, and He will have the last word. —David C. McCasland

To Him I trust my soul, my dust,
When flesh and spirit sever;
The Christ we sing has plucked the sting
Away from death forever.  —Anon.

Because Jesus has risen from the dead, He has the last word in life and in death.

Bible in One Year: Bible in One Year:   Psalms 132-134; 1 Corinthians 11:17-34
