Thank you for your good wishes and prayers. He won’t be coming here right away. He is stationed in OK, so will be flying into that airport. I hope that they will be coming to see us soon. Then I’ll fix biscuits...maybe. He is on Atkins, so doesn’t eat much bread. LOL!

Isn’t she a cutie. My son wondered how I got her to sit still long enough to pose...I just said “Grammie wants to take a picture” and she plopped down just long enough for me to snap one! LOL!

Dolly, I love your graphic and scripture today! Thank you.

I always wonder how you do SO much, with the pain! You are an incredible young lady!

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY, DOLLY!

Amazing Grace

by John Newton

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, .
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!

The Lord’s Prayer – Andrea Bocelli

DEAR GOD, who suffered torment, agony,
and death upon the Cross to free our souls
from the chains of iniquity, protect and defend
our troops. Guide them in the performance of
their duties. Strengthen them to endure hard-
ship,danger and deprivation in Your service. Let
their efforts free the people of Iraq and Afghan-
istan from the chains of terror and slavery,
foster a lasting peace in the region, and bring all
to a greater share in Your Mercy.
Amen.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

THE NAVY HYMN

Eternal Father, Strong to Save

The Marine Corps Verse:

Eternal Father, grant we pray
To all Marines both night and day,
The Courage, Honor, Strength and Skill
Their Land to serve, Thy Law Fulfill.
Be Thou the Shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps!

This is the day which the LORD hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Good Sunday Afternoon

Thank you, tiapam, for your sweet comments and graphic.
I had a great nap.It's 102 and I am appreciating my new A/C.
Hope your day is delightful.

Have a wonderful Lord's Day

Good afternoon to you, Meg! What another lovely graphic and awesome frame! Thank you! I’m beginning to think lavender is one of your favorite colors???? It’s been a pretty good day, here. As long as the A/C works like yours, all’s well! Years ago my family drove from Cleveland, Ohio to California. A/C wasn’t even known then. We couldn’t figure out if we rolled the windows up or down, which would be cooler! I will never forget that trip!!!! Fortunately the car never broke down, at least!! Therfore, A/C is WONDERFUL!! :)

Friends, last night I missed getting one of our Freeper's family member on the prayer list.

Please add Ben Lurkin's nephew to your military prayers.

May God Bless and Protect our men and women who serve to protect our freedoms.

[ConorMacNessa]

Thank you, Meg - a Blessed Lord's Day to you!

AMEN, Conor! I saw on T.V. this afternoon how long it takes them to get down one road, looking for the enemy, but having to find road side bombs first. OMG!!!!

[ConorMacNessa]

A Blessed Lord's Day to you, Tiapam!

Thank you, pammie..I do like lavendar.

That trip across the desert is a killer without A/C..We used to get up in the wee hours and travel til early afternoon. Our first car with A/C was after we got out of the Navy...I’ve made the trip to California several more times since then with A/C, thank heavens.
A/C is so wonderful!
