The first thing a soldier says when asked "What can we do to make things better for you?" is "We need your support and your prayers."

Think On These Things......

In light of recent events... Terrorists attack, school shootings, Ft. Hood, etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare
(she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school. The Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and love your
neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.

Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because their little personalities
would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know
what he's talking about. And we said OK.
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.

Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with 'WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.'

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.

Are you laughing yet?
Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.

Bishops May Flex Muscle..........

In the health care debate, for instance, the bishops have consistently identified three priority areas: abortion, religious conscience clauses and immigrant rights. The pressure from the church to ease restrictions on immigrants was “not even close” to the abortion language tug of war. The church’s strategic decisions are significant because, Catholics represent 30 percent of the largest single religious group among members of Congress and it can gain access across party lines.

But it remains to be seen if the bishops can have the same results as the broader health bill moves forward or on more complex life issues such as embryonic stem cell research. The bishops simultaneously contacted House Republican leaders and warned them against using procedural tactics to torpedo any amendment. The Catholic bishops have also allied themselves with advocates for labor rights and the poor because of the church’s traditional advocacy for the downtrodden.

Dear Lord

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day. I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.

And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those who are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those who are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those who will delete this without sharing it with others. I pray for those who don't believe. But I thank you that I believe.

I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly..

This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.

You Are Being Monitored..........

Today's technology, has given computer users, a whole new concept of ideas. The workstations in a company are now under scrutiny and can be monitored to keep up with what an employee is doing. They can see if your playing around or actually working on a project. This is considered monitoring productivity and helps the managers keep track of what all is going on in the company. So, you can't be playing games or checking your email, without your boss knowing it. This is a great way for the company to keep their computers free from unwanted porn and adult activities. It also gives the managers access to daily scheduling and progress reports.

Beliefs......

What is it that you believe in?

There are many subjects that stick deep in one’s heart and soul. They believe in these things, so strongly, that they can become a control factor.

It’s a good thing to have something or someone to believe in. This is the very being, that gives us strength to conquer, obstacles that attempt to ruin our hopes, wishes, dreams and everyday lives. Our strength is what gets us beyond these things and on to a new day, filled with new things to accomplish and savor.

All too often we will notice the outer surface of a subject or problem. It seems to be the biggest thing that overwhelms us. Looking deeper, we find that it wasn’t such a big thing after all. Sometimes, we find ourselves, being embarrassed, because we allowed it to disrupt our thinking in such a manner. Sometimes, it out right, makes us mad at ourselves. All human, actions are made of these and yet they are very controlling in our everyday lives.

Religion, is an affecting, controlling subject that can rule many facets of our attitudes, emotions and actions. It can also, give us strength, to handle daily situations. It may be the words of a song, a reading, a scripture, the words of encouragement from a friend. There are so many ways, religion, can affect us.

So, what do you believe in? Is it a person, an action, a standard that has stood the test of time. Giving the chance, why not stop and think about your beliefs and evaluate them. See if they still meet you needs for living according to your standards. Find new things and see if they could become a belief, you could adapt to.

A Reason

Many things come to mind, as I write this post. Mostly I find the reasons, come from within. Finding reasons to believe, are very hard to do, when you are so wrapped up in other feelings and locations of emotions. You may ask, what are we believing in on this subject or that? Well, it may be yourself, your mom, dad, sibling, a friend, mentor or great leader. Things that help us believe, come from the heart, inspiration, or just a incident that happened, waiting for us to see it. Believing in something gives us a reason to live our life daily, in the manner, we need to feel comfortable. If we believe, then there is a strength to carry us through any occurrence, we may come in contact with. To believe, is to have a reason or a value in which, to live and have hope of the future.

Dear Sean

It's only been since Aug. 30, 2009, that you left us, but it's seems like a lifetime. When you loose someone, it feels like a big hole has been kicked into your stomach as well as your heart. I wasn't that close to you, but the times you spent at my home visiting, were memorable. I enjoyed the dinners, we had together with all the family. You were considered one of the family, right up to the time of your death. The holidays, will definitely be different this year, and I'm sure there will be several who will remember you being with us during those and other times. God, rest your soul, and it is my hope that you are visiting with your Mom, now that you two are together once again.

Casino Games........

I know there are some of you lucky people, who will be booking a trip to one of the outstanding casinos around the country for the holidays. I won't be one of those lucky people who can afford such a venture. I suppose it's good that I can afford my computer and internet, because I can download casino games online and play as long as my money hold out. It's fun to play games online, and when there's real money involved, I can get very excited. Winning is the greatest experience I can have when playing casino slots games online. It's a matter of seeing other people's face who are in the room, with you. Not only does your face light up, but so does their's and your lucky if you can keep your seat. You will find m trying to push you over so they can play and get lucky as well.
I also like to go and download roulette online to see how well, I can fair when betting the odds. Downloading these games from the website is easy to do and when you've got your account all set up, your ready for the fun of winning. Check out this website, by clicking on one of the above links, and enjoy the freedom of playing in your own home.

A Time To Reflect........

A time to reflect on years past, and things that were very important to us. A time to be thankful for the things we have and if able, to share the things we have with others, less fortunate.
In less than a week we will be gathering with our family to be together again, on this occasion. It may be the last time for some of our family to be with us. It may be a new beginning for a few of us. Either way, this will be a time for us as a family to make memories, as we have on previous occasions.
Each year, one or two of the members aren't able to make it, for one reason or another. One of my sons, lives out of state, and won't be here. Another may have other family members to be with at this time, since they just lost their dad. So, we will be thankful for the family members that do get to drop by and enjoy the day as well as we can.
Once again, let us remember to thank the Lord for each day he has given us and for a great healthy coming year.

Traveling the USA

Once people get to their elder years, they get a feeling of being too settled. They decide there are so many things they haven't done or seen. To their children's dismay, they sell their homes, buy RV's and set out across America, to see the great nation of ours. Sometimes, in order to cut back on costs and savor the other amenities of traveling, they will opt t get a used rv for sale . It's very easy to get great deals on RV's when you shop at a renown dealer.

Thanksgiving.........

z5 Pictures, Images and Photos
The story on the news, is telling us that there are many people going without food, lately. It's my concern that we as the American people, need to rally and help our fellow citizens who are in need. Since our government isn't doing much to help, we need to follow up on the needs in our own towns and states.

Spring Term.......

It won't be long until the "spring term" will start and you need to have your student loan up to date, when you begin. Many types of loans can be found for student's who are trying to further their education. For more information on these loans, and to get qualified in time, I suggest looking a the available possibilities.

Eyes of a Child.........

I can remember several years ago, when as I child I would go up to this lady's house and visit with her. She would show me things that I never imagined to be in the world. This lady was always doing something different or trying something out. It often amazed me at all the things she had loaded into that 2 story house and huge yard. The main living room and dinning room were totally full of what we called "what not's" back in those days. She had several shelves full of these little trinkets and it was like walking into a wonderland. Everywhere you looked were miniatures, of some sort. In one glassed in bookshelf, she had a complete set of "Alexander's Ragtime Band", all miniature figurines, each with it's own musical instrument. There was even a dollhouse that she had sitting over in a corner of the room on an antique table. The small people caught my eye and it was a wonder to me how someone could make these dolls so small. What was even more eye catching was the dollhouse furniture carefully placed inside. The whole room was dedicated to the child like way of life and thinking. There were music boxes, chiming clocks, wind up dolls that would twist & whirl while playing music or beating a drum.
In another room, there was an old Victrola which place the old LP album's and had to be wound up in order to play. Yes, it had the big horn looking speaker which loomed over the top of the turntable.
As with all good and great thing's, when you've got too many, they tend to collect dust. Still it was a pleasure to go and visit her and listen to her stories and see all the different items, that were on display.
Today, you can find several items to put in a dollhouse for your little girls, and they will love playing with them. They won't be as quaint, as the one's I enjoyed, but to little girls, the thrill will still be there. Should you be interested in equipping a dollhouse with miniatures, then I'm sure you could find exactly what you looking for at the above website.

Letter From God........

This might be one of the kindest things you may ever see.

It is not known who replied, but there is a beautiful soul working in the dead letter office of the US postal service.


Dog and Child Pictures, Images and Photos


Our 14 year old dog, Abbey, died last month. The day after she died, my 4 year old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I thought we could so she dictated these words:

Dear God,
Will you please take care of my dog? She died yesterday and is with you in heaven. I miss her very much. I am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got sick.
I hope you will play with her. She likes to play with balls and to swim. I am sending a picture of her so when you see her You will know that she is my dog. I really miss her.
Love, Meredith

We put the letter in an envelope with a picture of Abbey and Meredith and addressed it to God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Meredith pasted several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven.. That afternoon she dropped it into the letter box at the post office. A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter yet. I told her that I thought He had.

Yesterday, there was a package wrapped in gold paper on our front porch addressed, 'To Meredith' in an unfamiliar hand. Meredith opened it. Inside was a book by Mr. Rogers called, 'When a Pet Dies.̢۪ Taped to the inside front cover was the letter we had written to God in its opened envelope. On the opposite page was the picture of Abbey &Meredith and this note:


Dear Meredith,
Abbey arrived safely in heaven.
Having the picture was a big help. I recognized Abbey right away.
Abbey isn't sick anymore. Her spirit is here with me just like it stays in your heart. Abbey loved being your dog. Since we don't need our bodies in heaven, I don't have any pockets to keep your picture in, so I am sending it back to you in this little book for you to keep and have something to remember Abbey by.
Thank you for the beautiful letter and thank your mother for helping you write it and sending it to me. What a wonderful mother you have. I picked her especially for you.
I send my blessings every day and remember that I love you very much.
By the way, I'm easy to find, I am wherever there is love.

Love,
God


Live Today (count your blessings)
Don't Worry About Tomorrow (it may never come)


DOORS

Look back and thank God.

Look forward and trust God.

Look around and serve God..

Look within and find God!"

Who wouldn't forward this !!!

God closes doors no man can open and
God opens doors no man can close.

Scriptures

For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth. He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
Psalm 33:4-8

Water Filters

Certain furnishing that we use in our homes, need to be cleaned and updated frequently. This keeps the pumps and motors from getting clogged up and ultimately going out.

A Penny.....

Several years ago, a friend of mine and her husband were invited to spend the weekend at the husband's employer's home. My friend, Arlene, was nervous about the weekend.. The boss was ver y wealthy, with a fine home on the waterway, and cars costing more than her house.

The first day and evening went well, and Arlene was delighted to have this rare glimpse into how the very wealthy live. The husband's employer was quite generous as a host, and took them to the finest restaurants. Arlene knew she would never have the opportunity to indulge in this kind of extravagance again, so was enjoying herself immensely.

As the three of them were about to enter an exclusive restaurant that evening, the boss was walking slightly a head of Arlene and her husband.

He stopped suddenly, looking down on the pavement for a long, silent moment.

Arlene wondered if she was supposed to pass him. There was nothing on the ground except a single darkened penny that someone had dropped, and a few cigarette butts.

Still silent, the man reached down and picked up the penny.

He held it up and smiled, then put it in his pocket as if he had found a great treasure. How absurd! What need did this man have for a single penny? Why would he even take the time to stop and pick it up?

Throughout dinner, the entire scene nagged at her. Finally, she could stand it no longer. She casually mentioned that her daughter once had a coin collection, and asked if the penny he had found had been of some value.

A smile crept across the man's face as he reached into his pocket for the penny and hel d it out for her to see. She had seen many pennies before! What was the point of this?


'Look at it.' He said. 'Read what it says.' She read the words ' United States of America '

'No, not that; read further.'

'One cent?'

'No, keep reading.'
'In God we Trust?' 'Yes!'

'And?'

'And if I trust in God, the name of God is holy, even on a coin.. Whenever I find a coin I see that inscription. It is written on every single United States coin, but we never seem to notice it! God drops a message right in front of me telling me to trust Him? Who am I to pass it by? When I see a coin, I pray, I stop to see if my trust IS in God at that moment. I pick the coin up as a response to God; that I do trust in Him..

For a short time, at least, I cherish it as if it were gold. I think it is God's way of starting a conversation with me. Lucky for me , God is patient and pennies are plentiful!

When I was out shopping today, I found a penny on the sidewalk. I stopped and picked it up, and realized that I had been worrying and fretting in my mind about things I cannot change.

I read the words, 'In God We Trust,' and had to laugh. Yes, God, I get the message.

It seems that I have been finding an inordinate number of pennies in the last few months, but then, pennies are plentiful!

And, God is patient..

The best mathematical equation I have ever seen:
1 cross + 3 nails = 4 given

That's the whole gospel message simply stated.

God........

A young man who had been raised as an atheist
was training to be an Olympic diver.

The only religious influence in his life came from his outspoken Christian friend.

The young diver never really paid much attention to his friend's sermons,
but he heard them often.

One night the diver went to the indoor pool at the college he
attended.

The lights were all off,
but as the pool had big skylights and the moon was bright,
there was plenty of light to practice by.

The young man climbed up to the highest diving board and as he turned
his back to the pool on
the edge of the board and extended his arms out,
he saw his shadow on the wall.

The shadow of his body,
was in the shape of a cross..

The man felt a strange feeling,
like someone was speaking to him.

Instead of diving, he knelt down and finally asked God to come into his life.

As the young man stood,
a maintenance man walked in and turned the lights on.

The pool had been drained for repairs.

Dark Circles........

For many years I would only get dark circles under my eyes if I felt bad, or had stayed out too late the night before. I have got these dark circles very bad now that I'm older. I can't get rid of dark circles under eyes even with certain topical creams. I've looked around the different beauty cosmetic lines, and don't know if any would help that I could afford. I'm going to look around again and see what I can find.

Job Interview for Teacher Position.........

After being interviewed by the school administration, the prospective teacher said:

'Let me see if I've got this right.
'You want me to go into that room with all those kids, correct their disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse, monitor their dress habits, censor their T-shirt messages, and instill in them a love for learning. 'You want me to check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs and sexually transmitted diseases, and raise their sense of self esteem and personal pride. 'You want me to teach them patriotism and good citizenship, sportsmanship and fair play, and how to register to vote, balance a checkbook, and apply for a job. 'You want me to check their heads for lice, recognize signs of antisocial behavior, and make sure that they all pass the final exams. 'You also want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of their handicaps, and communicate regularly with their parents in English, Spanish or any other language, by letter, telephone, newsletter, and report card.
'You want me to do all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard, a bulletin board, a few books, a big smile, and a starting salary that qualifies me for food stamps.

'You want me to do all this and then you tell me.

I CAN'T PRAY?

Math Help Online........

I've always needed help with Math, and wasn't able to excel in the subject as well as other students. When I went to school the internet was even adapted and you barely heard of computers. All during high school I could have benefited from being able to get help from an Online math tutoring service. I was interested in going to college, while raising my children. I looked at the Math lessons they were bringing home. It startled me to see the advanced nature of the Math they were being taught. I knew that if I went to college I would certainly need Online math help and even in house, at the college.
It's nice to find a website with all the amenities for Free online Math help , which can be used on a 24/7 basis. There' a free demo for new users to get oriented to the website and it's Math help tutors. They boast of having a service with unlimited tutoring for all subjects. It's my opinion, that they specialize in the Math subjects, because of the aspects they offer with their Online Math tutor service's. This website offers a great monthly package for only $99.99, to be used by student's as much as needed. They have proficient tutors to help and maintain quality educational service.

He's Awake & Talking

The posting Monday on the Web site for Anwar al Awlaki, who was a spiritual leader at two mosques where three 9/11 hijackers worshipped, said American Muslims who condemned the Fort Hood attack are hypocrites who have committed treason against their religion.

Awlaki said the only way a Muslim can justify serving in the U.S. military is if he intends to "follow in the footsteps of men like Nidal."

"Nidal Hassan is a hero," Awlaki said. "He is a man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against his own people."
I have seen this type of religion and beliefs, and yet, I wonder how they can esteem, killing innocent victims, who haven't done them any wrong? I would think that living in America and being a citizen, would give a person more feeling toward the country who has nurtured them from birth.

"Lord, all those around us search for motive, search for meaning, search for something, someone to blame. That is so frustrating," Col. Frank Jackson told a group of about 120 people gathered at the post's chapel. "Today, we pause to hear from you. So Lord, as we pray together, we focus on things we know."

Benedict XVI, left, meets Iran's new ambassador to the Holy See Ali Akbar Naseri, at the Vatican, Thursday. Pope Benedict XVI is calling on Iranian authorities to let Catholics in the country have the priests and churches they need to freely practice their faith. Benedict also told Iran's new ambassador to the Holy See on Thursday that Iran's rich spiritual heritage makes it a prime candidate for international collaboration on peace initiatives. Benedict didn't mention concerns over Iran's nuclear ambitions in a speech accepting the ambassador's credentials.

Good Lighting.......

I notice that when a person, moves to a new or used home they automatically look at the lighting, to see if it's adequate. There are several companies that offer different designs and ways of handling lighting concepts. When deciding on lighting fixtures it's best to consider the location and amount of light needed for the area. Finding a good decor, can always help with the type of designs you want to install.

A crucifix is seen on a wall as a student writes on a blackboard in a school classroom in Rome November 3, 2009. The European Court of Human Rights ruled on Tuesday that Italian schools should remove crucifixes from classroom walls, saying their presence could disturb children who were not Christians. The decision is likely to provoke a controversy in Italy, which is deeply attached to its Roman Catholic roots. Generations of Italian children have grown up studying in classrooms in which a wooden or metal crucifix looms above the blackboard. But Italy has been transformed in the past two decades from a country that exported migrants to one that has accepted around 4.5 million economic refugees and asylum seekers from Eastern Europe, Africa, and Asia.
