Thank you for prayerfully bumping by in your post 108, Ms Feather!

Your kind words are very generous, judicial meanz. Thank you for joining us in prayers for our troops and nation. All glory belongs to God in the Highest.

[SAMWolf]

Thanks Texokie.

Lots of good ones due to Bush and the homecomings!

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for being in our circle today, maestro, and for bringing to our attention the 2nd Corinthians scriptural reference.

WOW...4:7

"But we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellency of the power may be of God and NOT OF US. "

Paul could really say things, couldnt he??

[TEXOKIE]

Hey, Ms Feather!

Or should we start calling you Ms Feather-Butterfly!?

What a gorgeous picture and poem!! Thank you for bringing it to our prayer thread on this special day.

To me it seems you have captured so well the longing, joy, and hope of those families who are awaiting the return of their very own special trooper from deployment.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for joining us in our prayer circle this evening, Ms Tima!

[TEXOKIE]

LOL all prayer trolls are welcome too!! ;-)

[Alamo-Girl]

LOLOL! Silent lurking prayer trolls are welcome too!

[TEXOKIE]

I'm looking forward to them!

Wasnt today just awesome? Mr TEXOKIE and I watched him arrive and mingle with all the troops. We both had to have kleenex....not a dry eye here at our little house on the prairie!

That speech was beautiful. I have a memory like a seive today, and can only recall how wonderful it was. I'm glad I recorded it so I can listen to it again. You could actually SEE the love flowing from him to the troops and from the troops to him in a tangible way.

President Reagan once said something about us being the keepers of the flame of freedom. I feel like those precious kids out there on that ship and who are yet in Afghanistan and Iraq and elsewhere throughout the world have claimed that torch and are truly keeping that living flame alive and protected. God bless them! God bless our President, and God bless America and her true allies!

[Soaring Feather]

Thank you TEXOKIE!!!

I am happy you and others will enjoy the work.

:-)

[SAMWolf]

I missed the landing, work!!! :-(

Loved the speech though

[TEXOKIE]

*GIGGLE* you bet they are!!

WELCOME TO ALL YOU LURKERS OUT THERE!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US IN PRAYER!!

Every single one of your prayers counts, by God's grace!

[TEXOKIE]

You are welcome, Ms Feather! I am sure that others are and have been enjoying both it and that beautiful purple butterfly one!

[TEXOKIE]

Oh shucks! It was really cool to see, especially to someone like yours truly who has never been aboard a piece of large floating steel equipment such as the USS Abraham Lincoln.

[Alamo-Girl]

Indeed! Every prayer counts!

[TEXOKIE]

Soooo good to see you, AG! How're things hanging?

Life here has been breathtakingly exciting. We've been trying to get our lawn mower up and running. It is getting a little elderly and somewhat cranky. We were chasing down spare parts today. Finally Mr Texokie got it going and our lawn is less shaggy, but it was certainly a challenge!
