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!

Welcome to Warm Fuzzy Wednesday at the Finest. For those who start counting the days on Monday until the weekend, we're halfway there! 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!

Thank you so much for asking, dear Amy! The weather here in VT has been simply outstanding for mailmen! Warm, hardly any snow or ice! I've been overflowing with praise to my gracious Good Giving God for this added blessing at Christmas!

“Little Rajah, Little King”

READ: Isaiah 9:1-7

The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. —Isaiah 2:11

In an editorial printed in Reaper magazine, David G. Stewart wrote, “In India we used to chuckle about baby pujah, or baby worship. All the women would gather around the baby in arms, and cluck like broody hens with their approval, and note the supposed likeness to mom or dad, and hold the fingers, touch the cheek, kiss the feet. A favorite term to describe the young baby boy was ‘Little Rajah, Little King.’ Though they do not actually bow down and worship a new baby, those Indians give so much attention to a new infant that it’s no wonder they call it ‘baby worship.’”

When Jesus was an infant, He too received adoration and honor. He was adored by shepherds who left their flocks in the fields to worship a baby in a manger. Why? Because He was the King of kings.

I wonder, as this Christmas season progresses, are you able to focus your attention, even briefly, on the One whose birth we celebrate? Even more, are you willing to bow down in humility and give Him the adoration He rightly deserves? Isaiah prophesied long ago that His name would be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace (9:6). Jesus was no ordinary baby. He truly was the King of all kings! David C. Egner

As you bring your gifts to His cradle
And worship Him now as King,
Do you bow your knees to His power?
Is your life the offering you bring?  —Brill

When we recognize Jesus’ kingship, we will give Him our worship.

Bible in One Year:   Joel 1-3; Revelation 5

Morning, jaycee - getting back to yesterday's pings. Isn't that little girl sweet? Got it in my email a 'collection' of gifs just a few weeks ago and thought it would be a great WFW post. :)

Good evening, Billie. That is a beautiful graphic. The little girl is adorable. Thank you. Hope your Wednesday was Warm and Fuzzy.

Good morning to you, Amy. Thank you. Gosh, I'm never around when you are it seems. Didn't we *just* have the Christmas season a few months ago? How could it be the end of the year again already? :)

Meg, thank you for all the beautiful posts you make each day, being such a gracious hostess, moving the threads along, making everyone feel welcome.

Also wanted to say I noticed your last "snowing" table post! Yay for you, for getting the snow on top of the picture! (Isn't it fun?) :)

It works with any animation you want to use with a picture "behind" it, too. The animation just needs to be transparent. It makes me feel good that you are interested enough to check out source codes - it's the way that I learn still!
