Spectre is a serious bunch of bada$$es. The AC-130H can put a 105mm howitzer round in your left hip pocket from 16,000 feet in the middle of the night.

My other favorite saying from Hurlburt Field, FL is, "If you can't hover, you're a queer." I mainly flew with the rotorheads; low and slow.

Evening Grace Ladies!

Just wanted to report that my daughter made her flight safely from college (Richmond, VA) back home to California.

Dad has stopped pacing . . .

See ya in the AM with a Sunrise from New Hampshire.

Good morning ladies and gents. Flag-o-Gram.

Vice President Dick Cheney pins a Bronze Star medal on Cpl. Jaret M. Radimer, a 20-year-old rifleman with 3rd Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, and Suffolk, N.Y., native, at Al Asad, Iraq, Dec. 18. Cheney surprised service members and brought a pre-Holiday message of support to Al Asad, during his visit to Iraq.

Knowing God Personally

Read:
Exodus 33:7-17

He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel. —Psalm 103:7

Bible In One Year: 1 John 3-5

cover Most Christians would prefer to see God perform mighty miracles rather than to have fellowship with Him and learn His ways.

Today's text says that God made known His mighty acts to the people of Israel, but to Moses He "made known His ways." Exodus 33 records a great crisis in which Moses humbly prayed, "If I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way" (v.13). He wanted to know God and His plans for His people more than to see another mighty miracle. No wonder the Lord conversed with him "as a man speaks to his friend" (v.11).

Commenting on the difference between ways and acts, F. B. Meyer wrote, "Ways, or plans, are only made known to the inner circle of the saints; the ordinary congregation learns only His acts."

A talented friend of mine, Jennifer, learned this difference after spending several years in a wheelchair. One day she tearfully prayed, "Lord, I could have done so much for You, if only I could have been healthy." God's response was inaudible but clear: "Many people work for Me, but very few are willing to be My friend."

If you desire to know God personally more than you long to see His mighty miracles, you'll be satisfied. —Joanie Yoder

Once it was the blessing, now it is the Lord;
Once it was the feeling, now it is His Word;
Once His gift I wanted, now the Giver own;
Once I sought for healing, now Himself alone. —Simpson

Knowing God is not only seeing His works but also learning His ways.

Well, it was an "attempt" at humor but with today's political climate there probably is some truth to it and that is sad.

With the arrival of Msdrby's table saw in the mail yesterday, I'm done shopping. I understand the PE family is not done yet.

I guess the new Hummer under the tree will occur at the very last minute.

Beeter late than never Bump for the Friday Edition of the Freeper Foxhole.

The annual tradition of making Christmas cinnamon rolls is about to begin here at the alfa6 domicile. It is a day early due to circumstances being what they are this year. One of my co-workers called them a "heart attack in your hand". I think that they are guarrenteed to raise you collesterol and blood sugar by about 25 points each, mmmmmm :-)

Back later with picture of the rolls...

Regards
