We are indebted to you for your sacrifices for our Freedom.
Howdy, Kathy.
HUMP DAY! I bet you’re really ready for it this week!
Howdy, JJ!
You were quick this evening. It’s not easy to beat PRO. LOL!
You doing alright these days? Slowing down at all or still going full-bore?
Howdy, PRO.
Having any luck with the part-time job hunting? Any prospects at all? I hope the weather’s improving a little so you’ll even feel like getting out and about.
Good evening, JJ...((HUGS))
Did you ever work on helicopters?
Thank those serving.
Honor those who served.
NEVER forget the fallen!
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
No weather improvement yet, but spring is close.
'Sup with you and the kittehs?
Bible in a Year:
Write [these commandments] on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
As I scanned my social media feed in the aftermath of the 2016 flood in southern Louisiana, I came across a friend’s post. After realizing her home would have to be gutted and rebuilt, my friend’s mom encouraged her to look for God even in the heart-wrenching work of cleaning up. My friend later posted pictures of Bible verses she uncovered on the exposed door frames of the home, apparently written at the time the home had been built. Reading the Scriptures on the wooden planks gave her comfort.
The tradition of writing Bible verses on doorframes may stem from God’s command to Israel. God instructed the Israelites to post His commands on doorframes as a way of remembering who He is. By writing the commandments on their hearts (Deuteronomy 6:6), teaching them to their children (v. 7), using symbols and other means to recall what God commands (v. 8), and placing the words on doorframes and entry ways (v. 9), the Israelites had constant reminders of God’s words. They were encouraged to never forget what He had said or their covenant with Him.
Displaying God’s words in our homes as well as planting their meaning in our hearts can help us to build a foundation that relies on His faithfulness as revealed in Scripture. And He can use those words to bring us comfort even in the midst of tragedy or heart-wrenching loss.
Reflect & Pray
When has Scripture comforted you the most? How are the truths of Scripture the foundation for your life?
Heavenly Father, thank You for Scripture that guides my path. Remind me to build my foundation on it.
Grow in your knowledge of the Scriptures.
Good evening, Pro...it’s up to us to remember. Without them, we wouldn’t have made it this far.
Be picky! At this point in our lives, we can do just that. LOL I keep hoping you’ll luck on to something you’ll enjoy as much as I enjoy my weekends at the museum.
Your weather isn’t improving and it’s going downhill here. Not too bad today but it’s a downhill slide for the next week at least. We’re looking at lows below freezing next week and that’s gonna hurt the trees that are waking up now. They woke up too soon this year.
The kittehs are quiet this evening .... YAY! Last night was crazy in here.
My new riding mower is parked in a shed as of this afternoon and the windshield on the Town Car was replaced today. No more leaking onto my lap. Life is good. LOL
nope. Only all blocks of f-16’s.
Im doin’ well. Still full bore.
Hey there, radu...are you finally done with the rain for a while?
We are dripping, dripping, dripping, all day and then freezing tonight.
