You are crackers.

You are a very practical and no-nonsense person. For you, snacking is all about nourishment.
You work quite hard, and you’ve been known to burn the midnight oil. You’ll do what it takes to get things done.

You are quite organized and apt to plan... even down to your snacks. You see spontaneity as chaos.
You may be disciplined, but you still enjoy your life. You savor every reward you allow yourself, no matter how small.

Says I’m pizza, which I do not like.

My favorite midnight snack: Marshmallows. ..

Life’s Darkest Moments

August 27, 2014

Read: 1 Kings 19:1-8

An angel touched [Elijah], and said to him, “Arise and eat.” —1 Kings 19:5

Bible in a Year:
Psalms 120-122; 1 Corinthians 9

Charles Whittlesey was a hero’s hero. Leader of the so-called “Lost Battalion” in World War I, he was awarded the Medal of Honor for his bravery when his unit was trapped behind enemy lines. When the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was dedicated, Charles was chosen to serve as pallbearer for the first soldier laid to rest there. Two weeks later, it is presumed that he ended his own life by stepping off a cruise ship in the middle of the ocean.

Like Elijah (1 Kings 19:1-7), Charles was publicly strong, but in the quiet, post-public moments, his feelings of despair set in. People today frequently face situations bigger than they can handle. Sometimes it’s temporary despair brought on by fatigue, as in Elijah’s case. He had been part of a great victory over the prophets of Baal (18:20-40), but then he feared for his life and ran into the wilderness (19:1-3). But often, it’s more than despair and it’s more than temporary. That’s why it is imperative that we talk about depression openly and compassionately.

God offers His presence to us in life’s darkest moments, which enables us, in turn, to be His presence to the hurting. Crying out for help—from others and from God—may be the strongest moment of our lives.

Father, grant us the candor to admit to each
other that sometimes life overwhelms us. And
grant us the courage to help others find
help—and to seek it when we need it.

Hope comes with help from God and others.

Insight

Elijah, deemed Israel’s greatest prophet, was highly revered and well spoken of by the Jews, by the Lord Jesus Himself, and by the apostles (Matt. 17:10-11; Luke 1:17; Rom. 11:2-4, James 5:17-18). He appeared with Moses at the transfiguration of Jesus (Matt. 17:3). Because Elijah did not die (2 Kings 2:1), the Jews believed he would come back again (Mal. 4:5). Many scholars believe that Elijah will be one of the two witnesses mentioned in Revelation 11.

Schools are open here - back to the Winter traffic. It's amazing how much difference it makes in the commute.

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)

Survey says:

You are lively, funny, and always down for a little company. You get along easily with people. You are quite social, but you aren't necessarily an aggressive extrovert. You're just happy to hang with whoever is around.

You always are looking for the opportunity to kick back for a little, even if it's just for a few minutes. You may work hard, but you also know to break up your routine. There's always some room in your life for fun.

Yep. That's me. About 30 years ago....

My hubby sometimes opens a can of corn, beans, etc....”doctors” them with stuff and that’s his supper. In the can. LOL!

He’s low-maintenance. :)
