Thanks for this great road trip to Ft. Bliss! Haven’t been
to El Paso in years. I have friends who have been stationed
there, and they liked being there a lot. The weather is great!

Win Or Lose
March 1, 2011

During the 2009 college football season, University of Texas quarterback Colt McCoy began every post-game interview by thanking God for the opportunity to play. When he was injured early in the national championship game, he was forced to watch from the sidelines as his team lost.

The apostle Paul experienced God’s deliverance many times, but he didn’t insist on things going his way. From prison in Rome he wrote to Timothy: “I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand” (2 Tim. 4:6). Some might say that Paul had failed to accomplish his goals and that his life was ending in defeat. But he saw it differently: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith” (v.7). He looked forward to an eternal crown (v.8).

As we walk with God, we can praise Him for His faithfulness—win or lose.

I can always count on God, my heavenly Father,
For He changes not; He always is the same.
Yesterday, today, forever, He is faithful,
And I know He loves me, praise His holy name! —Felten

In every change He faithful will remain. —Katharina von Schlegel

Read: 2 Timothy 4:1-8

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. —2 Timothy 4:7

Bible in a year:
Numbers 23-25; Mark 7:14-37

CANTEEN ROAD TRIP

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to

Thank you, Lauren, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

I didn't know they had green grass in Texas (or NM)

~ Today...Sunny. Cooler with highs in the lower 50s. North winds around 10 mph...Becoming west this afternoon.

~ Tonight...Clear. Lows in the lower 30s. South winds 5 to 10 mph.

Well, my computer or connection or something is still slow.
I am going to post here, catch up on pings and then I'm going to go investigate WHY it is taking me so long to get anything posted.

Time to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. And, remember – I’ll be watching!

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

REMEMBER THEM
