Bible in a Year :
Speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
Andrew Card was the Chief of Staff to American president George W. Bush. In an interview regarding his role in the White House he explained, “In each staff member’s office hangs a framed statement of purpose: ‘We serve at the pleasure of the President.’ But that does not mean that we serve to please the President or to win his or her pleasure. Rather, we serve to tell him what he needs to know to do his job.” That job is to govern the United States of America.
In so many of our roles and relationships, we slip into people-pleasing mode rather than building up each other in unity, as the apostle Paul often urged. In Ephesians 4, Paul wrote, “Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith” (vv. 11-13). In verses 15-16, Paul cut through our people-pleasing tendencies, stressing that these gifts should be expressed by “speaking the truth in love” so that “the whole body . . . grows and builds itself up in love.”
As believers in Jesus, we serve people to build them up and to accomplish God’s purposes. Whether or not we please others, we’ll please God as He works through us to create unity in His church.
Reflect & Pray
Who do you serve to please? How might God’s higher presence direct your words?
Dear God, I want to please You by speaking the truth in love to my brothers and sisters.

Thanks, lysie! Yum.
Cooler weather for us these days...assuming you’ve got the same.
I should have copied and pasted this rather than just posting a link. It’s from Tucker Carlson.
“From an unusually good source: Obama’s tweet supporting Joe Biden was disingenuous. In private, Obama is telling people Biden can’t win, and he is therefore in favor of an open convention. Obama will not say whom he supports, nor as of yesterday afternoon had he met personally with Biden to deliver the message. Relations between the Obamas and the Bidens have never been warm. At times they’ve been hostile. But recently they’ve deteriorated further, mostly due to Jill Biden. In the hours and days after the debate, she kept her husband cloistered away from anyone who might convince him to drop out. Jill Biden is the driving force behind her husband’s reelection campaign, just as she was in 2020, when other members of the family (including Biden’s sister Val) considered him too impaired to run. The next generation of potential Democratic candidates understands all this as an opportunity and they’re circling, particularly Gretchen Whitmer, who is promoting herself aggressively.”
Good morning, Judy. Yes. Cooler today. I like!
Good morning, lysie!
Happy July to you!
The smell of the biscuits baking woke me up!
Thank you!
I don’t, I watched it on cable.

Good morning, Judy!
And happy Canada Day to you!
I hope, like here in the US, many are waking up and seeing things for what they really are, in your wonderful country.
Thank you for posting Tucker Carlson’s tweet, because it is very important.
The long knives are indeed out for Joe, and for Jill, who is pushing for the dementia-ridden husk to continue.
All shows of support for Biden are simply to distract.
He is kaput!
Thanks CB!
Happy Birthday Sis!
I saw reports that Hunter is the most vocal about Joe staying in the race.
Of course he is, he needs one or two parsons! And one or two more $million!
Hi exit! I don’t know if this has been For those who don’t understand what Chevron Deference is, and why SCOTUS ended it, here’s the long and short of it:
A family fishing company, Loper Bright Enterprises, was being driven out of business, because they couldn’t afford the $700 per day they were being charged by the National Marine Fisheries Service to monitor their company.
The thing is, federal law doesn’t authorize NMFS to charge businesses for this. They just decided to start doing it in 2013.
Why did they think they could away with just charging people without any legal authorization?
Because in 1984, in the Chevron decision, the Supreme Court decided that regulatory agencies were the “experts” in their field, and the courts should just defer to their “interpretation” of the law.
So for the past 40 years, federal agencies have been able to “interpret” laws to mean whatever they want, and the courts had to just go with it.
It was called Chevron Deference, and it put bureaucrats in charge of the country.
It’s how the OHSA was able to decide that everyone who worked for a large company had to get the jab, or be fired.
No law gave them that authority, they just made it up.
It’s how the ATF was able to decide a piece of plastic was a “machine gun”.
It’s how the NCRS was able to decide that a small puddle was a “protected wetlands”.
It’s how out-of-control agencies have been able to create rules out of thin air, and force you to comply, and the courts had to simply defer to them, because they were the “experts”.
Imagine if your local police could just arrest you, for any reason, and no judge or jury was allowed to determine if you’d actually committed a crime or not. Just off to jail you go.
That’s what Chevron Deference was.
It was not only blatantly unconstitutional, it caused immeasurable harm to everyone.
Thankfully, it’s now gone.
We haven’t even begun to feel the effects of this decision in the courts. It will be used, for years to come, to roll back federal agencies, and we’ll all be better of for it.
And that’s why politicians and corporate media are freaking out about

Hi Rusty!
It is so good to see you posting again!
Thank you for the summary of the Chevron Deference, which the Deep State used to strangle Americans in legal cases for the last 40 years.
Like Roe v. Wade, it was a decision that never should have been made.
It is a very hopeful sign that freedom will once again be ours, and the un-elected power-hungry bureaucrats will no longer reign supreme over us.
