Thank you, Galz, for another story of a great American hero
from the past. So many heroes....so little time!
Thank God for our brave ones...past, present and future!
Spent a good part of the day moving snow from where it doesn't get sun to places where it might get some sun.
Good evening, Dubya...((HUGS))...thanks for the prayer for our military men and women. They are so in need of our constant prayers.
Thank you Kathy.
Sounds like an ibuprofen moment to me!.....and VERY hard work!
In the hectic downtown of one of Asias great cities, I marveled at the busy sidewalks filled with people. There seemed to be no room to move in the crush of humanity, yet it also seemed that everyone was moving at top speed.
My attention was drawn to the soft, almost mournful sound of a single trumpeter playing Amazing Grace. The crowds appeared oblivious to both the musician and the music. Still, he playedsending a musical message of the love of God out to whoever knew the song and would think about the words as he played.
I thought of this experience as a parable. The music seemed to be an invitation to the masses to follow Christ. As with the gospel message, some believe in Gods amazing grace and choose the narrow way. Others ignore His grace, which is the broad way that leads to everlasting destruction. Jesus said, Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it (Matt. 7:13-14).
Jesus died so that whoever calls on His name (Rom. 10:13) can find forgiveness in His grace.
Ruh-roh! Hate to hear that. That ant farm gets stirred up too easily by bad news!
Good evening, Dave. Lt Col Zeamer was an interesting guy and an interesting history.
Hope you’ve had a good weekend.

I abandoned plans for yard work after about two hours of sweating
Well, that’s very cool! Did y’all make any major decisions
about guns tonight? :)

I have family traveling down her from ohio this week so, I wish the nasty ice would go away and give them nice traveling, but yes, I look forward to the cooler temps.
I hate hot and humid.
Don’t blame you for hating humid....it’s wearing!
Cool that you will have visitors. I hope the weather is warm
for at least part of their visit. I KNOW they are tired of
cold weather, being from Ohio! Are you taking some vacation?
Well, you’re probably gone now...and it’s time for me to say
g’night, too. Have a good week!
