AND THIS TOO SHALL PASS

An Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, and which would be true and appropriate in all times and in all situations. They presented him with the words:

"And this, too, shall pass away."

How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!

Abraham Lincoln in an address before the Wisconsin State Agricultural Society in Milwaukee - 30 September 1859

 

[Allegra]

"And this, too, shall pass away."

And it always does

God bless America.

I’ve Seen God’s Faithfulness

Bible in a Year :

• Leviticus 11–12
• Matthew 26:1–25

I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name.

2 Samuel 22:50 Throughout her historic seventy years as Britain’s ruler, Queen Elizabeth II only endorsed one biography about her life with a personal foreword, The Servant Queen and the King She Serves. Released in celebration of her ninetieth birthday, the book recounts how her faith guided her as she served her country. In the foreword, Queen Elizabeth expressed gratitude for everyone who’d prayed for her, and she thanked God for His steadfast love. She concluded, “I have indeed seen His faithfulness.”

Queen Elizabeth’s simple statement echoes the testimonies of men and women throughout history who’ve experienced the personal, faithful care of God in their lives. It’s this theme underlying a beautiful song King David wrote as he reflected on his life. Recorded in 2 Samuel 22, the song speaks of God’s faithfulness in protecting David, providing for him, and even rescuing him when his very life was in danger (vv. 3–4, 44). In response to his experience of God’s faithfulness, David wrote, “I will sing the praises of your name” (v. 50).

While there’s added beauty when God’s faithfulness is seen over a long lifetime, we don’t have to wait to recount His care in our lives. When we recognize that it’s not our own abilities that carry us through life but the faithful care of a loving Father, we’re moved to gratitude and praise. .

Reflect & Pray

How have you seen God’s faithfulness? How might you express your gratitude to Him?

Heavenly Father, I’m so grateful that in every season of life—sorrow or joy—I’ve seen Your faithfulness.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

A Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 29?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Allegra, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

God Bless America for sure!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

[The Mayor]

Wouldn’t that be nice, 29 and have the knowledge I have accumulated over all these years?

Thank You Kathy so much. You always remember.
God Bless you my friend.

Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,

THANK YOU
for your service!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Dear God:
I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman,
Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine
feel alone or forgotten.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is loving kindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.

Psalm 130:7 & 8

Howdy, Kathy.

I saw some nice sunshine up there today ..... and read the temp hit 40! That’s a drastic change! Bet it was “fun” getting out today.

[radu]

Well Happy Birthday, Mayor!

I promise I won’t sing the birthday song. Don’t want to ruin your day with my caterwaulin’. :-)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, radu, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

You find the best graphics. I love the patch!

Has your rain arrived? Or is it still on the horizon?

My drive to work was hazardous. We are in the high 30s and the roads are WET. But that has brought out the crazies, cutting in and out, and speeding. No thank you. And coming home was worse. There would have been a couple accidents in front of me had there been any ice at all where some were changing lanes over and over, weaving in and out to speed ahead. IDIOTS!!!

[CMS]

I hope everyone is having a good day today and a good day tomorrow.

[radu]

Hey there, Kathy.

I get lucky once in a while.

Yes, the rain arrived before I woke up and hasn’t stopped. We have a few more hours of it ahead tonight. It’s been light for the most part with a heavy shower coming through occasionally. Light is good because it soaks in and that is definitely what we need.

When I woke up and pulled up the Lake Hood cam, I could tell the snow was melting on rooftops and in the parking lot around the Aviation Museum. I knew then you weren’t going to enjoy getting out today. I’m glad you were able to get out and back home without the car getting crunched. Always idiots on the streets.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evenng, CMS, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours. ((HUGS))

More than 10’ of snow at my house so far this winter, a week or so where it never got above zero, and now, today, it is pushing 40 degrees. Lots of melting that will turn into ice over night. And now we are having huge wind gusts.

Hope your weather is nicer.

[Kathy in Alaska]

And now the howling has started. Hoping it doesn’t mess with the internet.

My trees are not flocked anymore.
