Miami. I’ve never been there except briefly on vacation. It would be cool, I suppose.

The United States Army Air Corps (USAAC) was the statutory forerunner of the United States Air Force. Renamed from the Air Service on 2 July 1926, it was part of the United States Army and the immediate predecessor of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF), established on June 20, 1941. Although abolished as an administrative echelon in 1942, the Air Corps (AC) remained as one of the combat arms of the Army until 1947.

Good evening, Army Bro!

I did get the ping - I started researching prior to commenting. What I've seen of her record looks good, but I recognize that this Administration is utterly politicized in making military appointments. A rapid rise - one-star to four in less than seven years.

Her father is a retired Air Force Master Sergeant - her mother is British. Her husband is a retired Marine.

For the sake of our Troops and our Nation, I hope this works out well.

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Hey, M-L.

Then again, sometimes i sit and listen, and DO fill up the thread with smart-alecky remarks!

One of the big events at the Festival is something I had a hand in. I saw it produced by the Santa Fe Chamber Festival when they took it on the road to Seattle in 1990. It's Igor Stravinsky's complete "A Soldier's Tale", done with a narrator and an actor playing the Devil. It runs about an hour. I had been begging for the Seattle Chamber Music Festival to do the complete version, not the little suite, which is what they traditionally program. I got my wish this year.

I'll be linking to a You Tube version this weekend. It's full of humor and irony, proof that Stravinsky knew how to laugh.

A Lesson In Worry
July 2, 2014

Read: Psalm 3

Lord, how they have increased who trouble me! —Psalm 3:1

Bible in a Year:
Job 22-24; Acts 11

My friend handed me a tall glass of water and told me to hold it. The longer I held it, the heavier it felt. Finally my hand grew tired, and I had to put the glass down. “I’ve learned that worry can be like holding that glass,” she said. “The longer I worry about something, the more my fears weigh me down.”

King David knew about fear. His whole life had been turned upside down. His son Absalom had stolen the allegiance of the nation of Israel from him and was attempting to take the throne for himself. David didn’t know who was loyal to him and who was against him. His only option seemed to be to run. He said to his servants, “Make haste to depart, lest [Absalom] overtake us suddenly and bring disaster upon us” (2 Sam. 15:14).

In a psalm that David may have written while he was fleeing for his life, he wrote: “I cried to the Lord with my voice, and He heard me from His holy hill” (Ps. 3:4). In the midst of his fear, David looked to the Lord. God showed him grace and restored him to the throne.

There are plenty of worries that can weigh us down. But as we release them into God’s strong hands, He will help us through our trials.

Thank You, Lord, that we do not have to be
weighed down by worry. Help us to place our
concerns in Your care so that
we do not fear tomorrow.

Worry is a burden that God never meant for us to bear.

Insight

Sometimes Scripture teaches us directly. The Sermon on the Mount (Matt. 5–7) is a great example of this. In other places we learn by example. Through the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, for instance, we learn to stand for God despite the consequences (Dan. 3).

The New Testament teaches us through the words of Paul and Peter to be anxious about nothing but to pray and to cast our cares on Him (Phil. 4:6; 1 Peter 5:7). Today's passage illustrates that principle by example. David, surrounded by trouble and enemies, prayed and then "lay down and slept." Then he "awoke, for the Lord sustained [him]" (Ps. 3:5). By praying to God about his cares and concerns, David was able to proclaim, "Salvation belongs to the Lord. Your blessing is upon Your people" (v.8).

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...I haven’t had a chance to get on FR today, but have been hearing you may have a lot of wind coming.

Does it effect you?
