Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

God Bless all those that protect the rest.
A husband and wife are 80 years old. The wife is an avid golfer. She comes home one day and tells her husband she’s quitting golf. She can’t see the ball anymore and can’t tell where it goes when she hits it. The husband says, I’ll go with you, I can still see real good.
So they go out golfing and the wife hits the ball. She says, where id it go? Her husband replies
I forgot
um.. what was the question, I thought I saw a squirrel saluting the flag...

| Your Attention Span is Medium |
 You may think that you have a short attention span... But being distracted is something most people struggle with. The most important thing is that...um...that...now, what was I saying? |
| Your Attention Span is Long |
 You can concentrate well, and your mind doesn't stray easily. Even if you have a mundane task to complete, you can get it done easily. Because you don't get distracted, you accomplish more than most people. Your self discipline is your greatest strength. You can will yourself to do almost anything. All you have to do is put your mind to it. |

 You may think that you have a short attention span... But being distracted is something most people struggle with. The most important thing is that you're aware that your mind wanders. If you find yourself daydreaming, you can usually snap out of it. It may be tough to concentrate at times, but you can do it... if you want to! But it's shifted abruptly and often by My wife. |
To all my fellow old farts....

Hi Everybody!

Whut?.......
Wrapped in blankets in my grandparents’ pickup, I watched as fire consumed our home. My father says I slept soundly as he carried my brother and me and our puppies out to safety. When I woke up and saw the huge blaze, I was already safe. I was too curious and too young to be scared.
I remember several things from that night. Even inside the truck, the heat was intense and the fire was mesmerizing. I remember too the fear on the faces of everyone else, checking and re-checking to see if loved ones were safe. Later I learned that in the chaos my father raced into the fire to look for my grandfather, which prompted my grandfather (who was not inside the house) to race in to get my father. Their courage affected all who saw it that night.
I’m reminded of that fire every time I read the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. When challenged with the decree to bow to the king or face execution (Dan. 3:10-12), these three bravely faced the fire for the One they loved (vv.16-18). And the Lord stood with them in the flames (v.25).
When life’s “flames” test us, may those who observe our choices recognize our love for each other and for our God.
Read: Daniel 3:10-25
