Good morning, Snippy and everyone at the Foxhole.
When 8-year-old Jacob visited his Grampa in the hospital, he came with his own custom-made "Get Well" card. It was an 81/2" x 11" piece of stiff white paper folded in half. On the front he had written, "Hope you feel better soon." On the inside, in large block letters, was this message: I will be with you There was no Scripture reference, so Jacob added these words: "God said that." He wanted to be sure I didn't expect him to be at my side during my entire hospital stay. That added note conveyed an unintended and deeper truth that brought a smile to my face and comfort to my heart. A hospital can be a lonely place. It's a world of unfamiliar faces, first-time medical procedures, and uncertain diagnoses. But it's in just such a setting that God can quiet an anxious heart and give assurance that He'll go with you down every hall, through every new door, into any unknown future-yes, even through "the valley of the shadow of death" (Psalm 23:4). Maybe you have had an unexpected setback or loss. Your future is unknown. Trusting Jesus as your Savior and Lord, you can be sure of this: He will go with you wherever you go. You can believe it. God said that! -Dennis De Haan
All cares and sorrows flee; He is my strength, my hope, my life, He's all in all to me. -Lewis No danger can come so near the Christian that God is not nearer.

Good morning ALL.
Present.
Dear snippy_about_it,how are you on the 1st of June?I am probably repeating myself(I often do)but I was very proud to have met an old paratrooper at St.Mere Eglise in December,2000.His name is Howard Manoian and he lived nearby.He was in A Company,505th PIR,82nd Airborne Division.He made 39-jumps(all told),and one of which was into the churchyard(cemetery)behind that famous church in St.Mere Eglise.I met him in a little cafe adjacent that church.I don't know if he is still among the living as he has never written back.I might be going to Normandy this December.I hope he is!
