Appreciate your sharing the photograph with us, Dave.
Isn't it great to look back at the past and be able to see "The Whole Picture," when God was with us every step of the way?!

At times, of course, He hung back for our benefit, waiting for us to step out of His Way..:))

I love this gem I have posted on my Profile Page, given to me by the Chaplains' Secretary I referenced a while ago here.

God says:

"I am covenanted, committed forever to love you;
to do whatever is best for you.
I will be kind, encouraging and enabling, but I will also be challenging.

At times I will come to comfort you in your affliction.
At other times I will come to afflict you in your comfort.

Whatever I do, it will always be an act of love and an invitation to your growth.

I will be with you to illuminate your darkness, to strengthen your weakness, to fill your emptiness, to heal your brokenness, to cure your sickness, to straighten what may be bent in you, and to revive whatever good things may have died in you.

Remain united to me, accept my love, enjoy the warmth of my friendship, avail yourself of my power, and you will bear much fruit."

Beautiful, isn't it??

[The Mayor]

Beautiful!

Amen Bob, Amen!

[The Mayor]

Thank you Sir!

That pic says it all, comforting thought.

Hey, that could have been me behind that grill.
Except in 67 I was 11 years old.. Maybe in 76 but I was serving Military Intellegence brats in training.

It sure is!

Lord, Help me to be a fruit picker for you.

How blessed we are to gather here in Billie's Room, in JimRob's House, sharing freely our thoughts about our loving, gracious Father!

Time for me to go to have a few words with Him..:))

Night, Dave - night JimRob and all - - may God bless you this and every day.
Amen

Good Morning Meg,

Thank you!

As I grow older, I'm learning to lean more on God and His faithfulness.

I plan to read your suggested research paper when I get home from a little trip to Florida to visit my mother and father for her birthday #83. Bye for a few days.

[The Mayor]

Have a safe trip see, you when you return.
