How long will your grand-daughter be in UCLA Hospital. Is she really young and in the children’s wing?

I am a retired veteran of the United States Armed Forces
Now I am a member of We The People…just words

During my active duty years I’ve seen war and rumors of war
I protected We The People…just words

I fought for God and country
Blessed by We The People…just words

The path I chose was
The road not taken by We The People….just words

They were the best years of my life
Unbeknown by We The People…just words

The hardships I endured
Will never be shared by We The People…just words

For over two score years in uniform
Now I dress as We The People….just words

Time moves on and I’m here to say
Freedom is not free for We The People….just words

When it was said that old soldiers never die
They just fade away by We The People….just words

When the time has come and my years are spent
I’ll be buried by We The People….just words

HAPPY CAMERA DAY!




Round 'n Round
Mike Curtis
I see that you've
always had me in mind
Your memories of me are endless
You've captured the essence of me
more than anyone could put in words
What shall I compare thee to?
You who's been there
from the very start
a companion, a best friend
a constant reminder that
what truly matters through it all
is that we keep smiling...

Beautiful Dolly...thank you and good wishes to you on this Lord’s Day. Computer has problems...can’t post pictures and at the moment, bookmarks aren’t showing up. That is disturbing to me!

Patience, patience!

good luck jaycee.. computers can be so frustrating. Every day there is new challenges here. I didn’t have email (gmail) working for a day.. never knew what was going on there.

lots of little annoyances.. maybe a lot are software conflicts which I truly dont understand

True Confessions
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my mother conceived me. —Psalm 51:5

I love coconut. I always have! So, after an exhausting day in second grade, I found a bag of shredded coconut in the cupboard and devoured the whole thing. When my mother went into the kitchen later to bake—you guessed it, a coconut cake—I heard, “Who ate the coconut?!”

I knew I was in trouble, but my escape plan was simple—a quick, easy lie: “Not me!”

She continued her inquiry with my sisters, but after they denied it, we all heard the familiar words: “Wait till your Dad comes home!” My cover-up plan was doomed to failure, and later that evening I finally confessed.

No one had to teach me to lie. As the psalmist David admits, “I was brought forth in iniquity” (Ps. 51:5). But in his sin David knew where to go—to the God of abundant mercy who will cleanse us from our sin (vv.1-2).

When we recognize the ongoing reality of sin in our lives, we are reminded of our ongoing need for the presence of God and the power of His Word to keep us safe and spiritually sane. He is waiting for us to confess our faults and embrace the forgiveness and cleansing that He readily offers.

Remember, a refreshing plunge into God’s mercy awaits you on the other side of confessed sin!

Out of my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come;
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus, I come to Thee. —Sleeper

Own up to your sin and experience the joy of confession.


Bible in One Year: Psalms 75–77
