I love Hubble Pics. They have strengthened my faith, not jeopardized it at all.

Amen, I Feel the Same Way!

Maybe a sunny day will show up when the Meadowlarks are seen again.

That would be Awesome! They were Foraging Near my Living Room Windows, so I had a Good Camera-View of them, if Only the Lighting would have been Better.
I Hope they Come Back! : )

(((((Goodnight, Dear FRiends)))))

Our Lord Grant us All a Peaceful and Restful Night.

Graphic by Billie

Love

Love is like a lump of gold,
Hard to get, and hard to hold.
Of all the girls I've ever met,
You're the one I can't forget.
I do believe that God above,
Created you for me to love.
He chose you from all the rest,
Because he knew I would love you best.

- Loy Bowman -

Benefits Of Friendship

February 14, 2012

Cicero was one of the greatest thinkers of the Roman Empire. He was a skilled orator, lawyer, politician, linguist, and writer. Still today he is quoted for his clear prose and practical wisdom.

For instance, of having friends he wrote: “Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.” He understood the double benefits of friendship along life’s journey.

Nearly a millennium earlier, King Solomon had written about the value of friends as well. In Ecclesiastes we read, “Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he has no one to help him up” (4:9-10). Certainly a life without friends makes our sojourn lonely and hard to bear.

That famous Roman and that Jewish king were right: Friends are important. Friends serve as confidants, counselors, and burden-sharers.

Think about your friends. Have you been neglecting those God has provided to share your joys and sorrows? If so, seek out one of your friends for fellowship this week. Remember, “two are better than one,” because a friend can double our joy and divide our grief.

A friend is “trust,” a friend is “warmth,”
A friend is “always there”
To add to every happiness,
To lessen every care. —Anon.

Friends are flowers in the garden of life.

Read: Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. —Ecclesiastes 4:9
Bible in a year:
Numbers 31-33

Well I’m a day late, still fighting the health battles, spent most of the day on the couch being a potato. The Endo upped my Synthroid med, that will help a little. Now if only we could get one of the PAIN problems fixed! Can’t see the back doc until mid April. That leaves time for the Urologist to fix the bladder LOL.

Great Military graphic, Gail!

I can sympathize with your pain. Upper back pain is surrounding my every moment. Have an appointment with my doc the end of February and am trying to tough it out a couple of weeks. What I do not understand is why the pain pills that keeps my hip pain under control does not touch this upper back....go figure!

Hope you will find some relief soon, Gail.

So beautiful, Amy. Billie did such pretty work. I wonder if she could be sick or as I hate to say, that something has happened to her worse than being sick? I can’t help but wonder about her.

I must dig in my files for some valentines greetings very soon now!

Thank you, Jaycee.
I haven't heard from Billie forever.
I hope she is just tired of FR and there is nothing wrong.

Wishing you a Happy Valentine's Day.
