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)

A prisoner who survived 14 years in a Cuban jail told how he kept his spirits up and his hope alive: “I had no window in my cell, and so I mentally constructed one on the door. I ‘saw’ in my mind a beautiful scene from the mountains, with water tumbling down a ravine over rocks. It became so real to me that I would visualize it without effort every time I looked at the cell door.”
Ironically, some of the most hopeful books of the Bible—Philippians, Colossians, and Ephesians—come out of Paul’s house arrest in Rome. The letter to the Ephesians gives a hint as to what the apostle Paul saw when he thought about life beyond his place of confinement.
First he saw the spiritual growth in the churches he left behind. This book opens with a burst of thanksgiving for the vitality of the Ephesian church (Eph. 1:15-16). Then he sought to open the eyes of their hearts to even more exalted sights: the “exceeding riches” of God’s grace (2:7). When Paul cranks up the volume to express God’s plan of love, not one low, mournful note sneaks in.
If you feel discouraged or question whether the Christian life is worth it, Ephesians proves to be a great tonic. It prescribes the riches in Christ available to all.
Read: Ephesians 1:15-21

SOUP FOR THE TROOPS
WELCOME TO THE
(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)
Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities
Another nice visit with the troops.
For me it's sad to see so many of the wounded.
But then I ask myself it the same spirit they show in moving on
(such as competing in sports)
is the same spirit they use in joining the military.
God bless 'em all.

Leather money was used in Russia
right up until the 17th century,
as was tea money in China.
Hurricanes, cyclones, and typhoons spin
counter-clockwise north of the equator,
and clockwise south of the equator.
This is known as the Coriolis Effect.
Mariner 4 was the first spacecraft to photograph Mars.
The bouillon cube was once a common snack food
in early America. Beef or veal stock was boiled down
until it reached a hard jelly texture.
The hard cakes didn't spoil,
and trappers and hunters nibbled on them when tramping along
on long journeys during the 1700s.
Kleenex® tissues were marketed as a cold cream remover
when they were first introduced in 1924.
The FR Canteen is ALWAYS
Running behind again. UGH! Be glad when FRiday gets here.
Please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
