A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE

 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

My brother would have given his eye teeth to see a Javelina while we were in Az. . . we missed them by a minute . . . I don't think he would have minded the stink . . . ;-)

Is this the same Jacobs that was a mainstay for IMUS in the Morning a few years ago?

A multi decorated hero who was so talented; so vibrant; so injured; yet so American, so positively focused??

The world will mourn the loss of this hero!

God Bless!

Warning Lights

ODB RADIO: Listen Now |  Download
READ: Joel 2:12-17

“Now, therefore,” says the Lord, “Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” —Joel 2:12

I didn’t think that the hesitation in my car engine and that little yellow “check engine” light on my dashboard really needed my immediate attention. I sang it away, saying that I would get to it tomorrow. However, the next morning when I turned the key to start my car, it wouldn’t start. My first reaction was frustration, knowing that this would mean money, time, and inconvenience. My second thought was more of a resolution: I need to pay attention to warning lights that are trying to get my attention—they can mean something is wrong.

In Joel 2:12-17, we read that God used the prophet Joel to encourage His people to pay attention to the warning light on their spiritual dashboard. Prosperity had caused them to become complacent and negligent in their commitment to the Lord. Their faith had degenerated into empty formalism and their lives into moral bankruptcy. So God sent a locust plague to ruin crops in order to get His people’s attention, causing them to change their behavior and turn to Him with their whole heart.

What warning lights are flashing in your life? What needs to be tuned up or repaired through confession and repentance?

God’s love is not some fuzzy thing
That lets us do what we think best;
It guides and warns, and shows the way,
And always puts us to the test. —D. De Haan

Conviction is God’s warning light.

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

Hope, they are big & stinky! LOL

He didn’t miss much. :)

We have had a pack of up to eight roaming around here at night for the last week.

I’m not sure what is drawing them but they did eat my fall tomatoes & destroy the plants.

I went up to the Cave Creek area yesterday...a bit higher elevation but definatly a more undeveloped desert area.

Saw several roadrunners & a small deer. Gad’s it was peaceful up there.

Wish I could find a way to make a living in a less populated area!

Please pray on this day, and every day, for our Patriot Armed Forces standing in harm's way around the world in defense of our liberty, and for the families awaiting their safe return.
