Shavua Tov.
Wishing all our Jewish troops, veterans, families, allies, friends, and Canteeners
a peaceful and prosperous week.
He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.
May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.
May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.
G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.
Prayers for our troops, veterans, families, allies, friends, and Canteeners
for a safe and peaceful week ahead.
Blessed Lords Day to you!
(hugs)
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS.
God Bless our military men and women who have given their all.
Thanks, unique.
“I now believe the best way to please one-half of the world is not to mind what the other half thinks or says.”
I believe, and do try to be helpful to fullest extent possible minus being taken advantage of.
I have made many friends, and I have found many users.
Good evening, Idaho...and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you as well.
Fredd getting the hang of “no barking”?
Our snow seems to be here to stay...it’s been snowing gently all day, but about 27 degrees.
America has paid a price for the freedom we enjoy. This song is dedicated to remembering that...
I have a brand new song called "It's A Free Country" that all of America needs to hear. I made a video of me performing it, and posted it on YouTube.

I would like to dedicate it to the Troops who make our Freedom possible.
Thanks to Fudd Fan, Kathy in Alaska, Onyx, and Freekitty for their support of the message in my song.
God Bless and Protect Our Troops!

"It's A Free Country" - Carolyn Owen
(C) 2011 Carolyn Owen
Somewhere in America there's someone reaching up
Striving hard to raise the bar to fill that golden cup
And wherever there's a need there's a will to create
And someone there to raise a hand and step up to the plate
It's A Free Country - where dreams come true
'Cause once you've tasted freedom a cage will never do
It's A Free Country - as long as we live and breathe
So don't tread on me, no don't tread on me
It's A Free Country
Anywhere in America there's still pursuit of liberty
With hands and heart and hope - breathing the blessed air of democracy
And as the centuries relentlessly roll - we must stand tall against our foes
Standing true, standing strong - and tyranny oppose
It's A Free Country - where dreams come true
'Cause once you've tasted freedom a cage will never do
It's A Free Country - as long as we live and breathe
So don't tread on me, no don't tread on me
It's A Free Country
So say a prayer for America - because we really care
We believe in freedom for all the world to share
We live to be free, we've died to be free
It's A Free Country
It's A Free Country - where dreams come true
'Cause once you've tasted freedom a cage will never do
It's A Free Country - as long as we live and breathe
So don't tread on me, no don't tread on me
It's A Free Country
LOL!
They supplied me with forks...
Hi Kathy,
Prayers up! May God Bless and Protect our Troops, grant them strength and resolve, and lighten their heavy load. We here safe at home tonight are deeply indebted to those who are risking their lives daily in defense of Freedom. Praying for their safety is the very least we can do, but it matters a lot.
I also want to take a moment to express my appreciation for you and the other folks who run the Canteen thread. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication.
Best FRegards and may God Bless,

While awaiting a routine medical procedure in a local hospital, I noticed a wall plaque showing Christ on a cross. Later, a nurse asked me several administrative questions, in-cluding, “Do you have any spiritual needs you’d like to discuss with a chaplain?” I said that I appreciated her asking that question, which I found unusual in today’s world. She replied with a smile that they are a faith-based hospital and “that’s part of our mission.” I was impressed that the people were not afraid to be who they are in an increasingly secular and pluralistic society.
Peter urged the first-century believers who had been scattered by persecution and were living in a hostile world to consider it a blessing to suffer for the sake of what is right. “But even if you suffer for doing what is right, God will reward you for it. So don’t worry or be afraid of their threats. Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it” (1 Peter 3:14-15 NLT).
Just as the woman at the hospital freely stated their faith, so we can express ours. And if we are criticized or treated unfairly because of our belief in Christ, we should respond with gentleness and respect. We should never be afraid to be who we are in Him.
Read: 1 Peter 3:8-17
This is so true...and in all societies all across the world. There have always been, and will always be, those that want someone else to do all the work for them to enjoy...something for nothing.
A Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours, nky.
Prayers continue for you, your docs, and your family.
