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!

So we're here to banish those doldrums and make you smile inside! Please feel free to post sweet graphics and/or little stories that make you feel all warm and fuzzy - or just come by and give us a smile. Only two more days 'til the weekend!

I am telling you some people shouldn't have pets or kids for that matter.
It makes me angry when I hear things like this.

I hope they get a hefty fine. I was angry too. I was also so relieved to know the dog wouldn't be left out all night alone.

It's good to know that he belongs to someone and that he wouldn't have to be out there by himself for a whole night.

Empire Building
LISTEN TO ODB RADIO: Real | MP3 | WMA

READ:
Daniel 4:28-37Those who walk in pride He is able to put down. Daniel 4:37
After being warned by Daniel about his pride, the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar was struck with insanity. The Lord restored his mind, but only after he spent 7 years in a field thinking he was a wild animal.
Nebuchadnezzar went from boasting, "Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for . . . the honor of my majesty?" (Dan. 4:30) to a humble prayer: "I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven" (v.37). He had repented of prideful empire building.
Bible teacher J. Vernon McGee expressed concern about empire building in the church today. He advised Christian leaders, "Don't try to build a little empire of your church. I started out with that viewpoint, and I had never been more unhappy." He encouraged them to "build into the lives of people" and leave the results to God.
When a church devotes undue energy to statistics, buildings, and programs, pride can enter in and the needs of God's people can be forgotten.
Jesus never forgot the importance of individuals. He invested His time in 12 men (Mark 3:14). Paul discipled Timothy who in turn discipled others (2 Tim. 2:2). God's kingdom grows when we invest in people. Dennis Fisher
Churches grow when people pray
And pastors preach the Word,
When love for Christ seeks out the lost
To win them to the Lord. D. De Haan

Good morning, GeeBee and FRiends.
GeeBee and I, along with her knowledgeable rose forum friends, have determined that the mystery rose that I have been trying to identify is probably a "Tropicana". Thanks so much for your help with this, GeeBee.
I am posting a photo of it here, in case one of you recognizes it and has a differing opinion. But, unless someone else tells me differently, I believe we have discovered it's name. :-)

Tropicana
I am a bit embarrassed to post this since my husband reminded me that, even though it is a "very nice photo", I forgot one of the cardinal rules of photography; to mist it with water before taking the picture - me of all people, being married to a photographer! Now I will have to wait until next spring to get a misted shot of this rose, as this one has finished blooming for the season. :-(
Hope you all have a wonderfully warm, fuzzy and rosy Wednesday.
