The Fear Of Falling
The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. —Deuteronomy 33:27

Have you ever dreamed that you were falling out of bed or from some great height, and you awoke in fright? I remember that as a boy I would often be awakened by such a terrifying feeling.

I heard about a man who had this sensation as soon as he slipped into sleep. He was so rudely awakened by his sense of falling that he was afraid to go back to sleep. He feared he would die, and he imagined he was falling into a bottomless pit.

Then one evening as he was strolling through a cemetery, he saw this phrase engraved on a tombstone:

Underneath Are The Everlasting Arms

These words reminded him that when believers die, they are safely carried by the Lord to their home in heaven. He recalled the assurance of the psalmist, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me” (Ps. 23:4).

The once-fearful man realized that in life and in death— and even in sleep—the “everlasting arms” of our loving Lord are there to catch and hold us. That night he was able to sing what he was taught in childhood, “Teach me to live that I may dread the grave as little as my bed!” At last he could fall asleep without fear.

I can trust my loving Savior
When I fear the world’s alarms;
There’s no safer place of resting
Than His everlasting arms. —Hess

You can trust God in the dark as well as in the light.

Bible in One Year: 1 Samuel 13-14; Luke 10:1-24

Good morning, Kathy!

Good morning,

EVERYBODY!

MORNING

TROOPS!

 

 Laughing is a way of releasing stored up negative emotions. Jokes increases our sense of belonging, and by psychologically connecting us with others, feelings of alienation, a major factor in depression, is counteracted.

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our

AWESOME

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities

The DC Metroland weather report

~ Today.....A mix of clouds and sun. High 64F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph.

~ Tonight....Mostly clear. Low 43F. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.

Yee hawwwww....I got major work done this week. Going to work on one more report today. This means I'll have a little more time at the Canteen.

Definitely have to take a walk today. Temps are 20 degrees cooler than the last 4 days.

Time for me to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!

Now remember, the Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM


Bowe Bergdahl (still held captive)

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
