Hey Peanut Gallery!!! Thanks for the birthday wishes for Schloweiss. :-) I was up in Gainsville for most of the week celebrating with her. She is the big 21 now!!!!

Hope all's well in Allen.

I made it back into WF yesterday for some time working on the house up here and trying to get my house rental ready. Switching from trying to sell to trying to rent. ~sigh~ Gotta do something to help with the house payments.

I'll be back up in Gainsville Saturday night for a fundraiser at the Booker T. Washington center. Myranda volunteers there and wanted extra support at the fundraiser so I'm going back for that. So, here I am galavanting around north Texas again. LOL -- in a pickup that overheats slightly so I'm ending up driving around with the heater on full blast. Good thing I like hot weather. :-)

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.... Schlohweiss is working for a land man in Gainsville. She love guns. She can usually make guys heads turn when she shoots skeet or does some target practice with her handgun. And I don't mean cause she's a cute little thing either.

Additionally, her mother doesn't like her boyfriend. So, wonder how we work this out? She does seem to be attached to that guy........

Whilst I was galavanting about the Golden State the other day, some of my guys molested my robot desk lamp. Last night, they left proof.

LOL

God Reigns

READ: Psalm 93

Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns! Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory. —Revelation 19:6-7

I remember well the shock and grief I felt in 1968 when Senator Robert Kennedy was assassinated in Los Angeles. People everywhere, regardless of their political affiliation, were numb with grief and horror. Coming so soon after the assassination of his brother, President John F. Kennedy, made it even more tragic.

Yet after Senator Kennedy’s funeral in St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the walls echoed with the triumphant words of Handel’s Messiah: “The Lord God Omnipotent reigneth, . . . and He shall reign for ever and ever.”

These words do not suggest that God willed the assassination. They are a triumphant affirmation that in spite of such events, God achieves all His good purposes. People do things that anger and grieve Him. But He is at work bringing good out of evil, light out of darkness, joy out of pain, order out of chaos, and life out of death.

In Psalm 93, the pounding waves of the seas that “have lifted up their voice” represent humanity in turmoil and opposition to God (v.3). They sometimes seem to be winning the battle. But the Lord is “mightier than the noise of many waters” (v.4). One day He will completely vanquish all opposition and usher in the perfect eternal world He has promised us. Our God reigns! Hallelujah! Herbert Vander Lugt

Our God is an awesome God!
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love—
Our God is an awesome God!  —Mullins

The more clearly we see God’s sovereignty,
the less perplexed we are by man’s calamities.

I had to do a double take here. For a moment I thought I read:

GOD RESIGNS
