"AND LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS"

Matthew 28:20

One morning I stood on the bluffs overlooking the coast at Camp Pendleton. I spied an amphibious naval vessel just off shore. As I stood watching, it came into full view, then disappeared as the early morning fog came and went. The ship was always there, but it was only visible part of the time.

It spoke to me of the reality of God's presence. The truth is God is always there, but our changing moods affect our ability to see. It's good days and bad days again, or would you believe, it can change moment by moment. In the times when vision is less clear, it's truly faith that helps us see and enables us to believe enough to keep trying.

So, live by faith. Trust in the Lord and keep looking ahead. God is with us in the confusion of life.

I did not know out Governor’s mansion had a big fire..Sounds really bad!

I figured every Texas FReeper knew about that. Fairly long thread on FR here.

See my comment from the Austin paper #207 - arson suspected.

I had not turned on TV or the computer so I did not know. I got on two more threads later..missed this one..Thanks for the link..I am upset.

[Arrowhead1952]

The Austin fire dept has the federal ATF helping with the investigation.

[Arrowhead1952]

[MEG33]

I know..I also read your thread..One thread hijacking, sanctimonious poster raised my blood pressure and my hackles..Glad she doesn't live in Texas. The later threads were more congenial!
