While it's quiet, I'm going to take a break. Will be back a bit later.

[Colonial Warrior]

Just a note to say "Thank You!" for everything you do.

I've learned so much from you already...but I really appreciate your tutelage in the fine art of HTML and tables.

This old dawg is still learning...so I hope you don't mind me enrolling!

Hooah!

Beginning From The End

Read:
Job 3:20-26

May the day perish on which I was born. —Job 3:3

Bible In One Year: Isaiah 16-18

At age 30 she was ready to give up. She wrote in her diary, "My God, what will become of me? I have no desire but to die." But the dark clouds of despair gave way to the light, and in time she discovered a new purpose for living. When she died at age 90, she had left her mark on history. Some believe that she and those who introduced antiseptics and chloroform to medicine did more than anyone to relieve human suffering in the 19th century. Her name was Florence Nightingale, founder of the nursing profession.

Job went so far as to wish he had never been born (3:1-3). But thank God, he didn't end his life. Just as Florence Nightingale came out of her depression and found ways to help others, so too Job lived through his grief, and his experience has become a source of endless comfort to suffering souls.

Maybe you're at the point of not wanting to go on. Being God's child intensifies your desperation, for you wonder how a believer could feel so alone and forsaken. Don't give up. Coming to the end of yourself emotionally could be the most painful experience you've ever encountered. But take courage. Cling to the Lord in faith and start all over. God can use this kind of "beginning from the end." —Mart De Haan

Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish—
Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel;
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish:
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. —Moore

In Christ, the hopeless find hope.

Good morning Billie and FReepers everywhere. Try to keep cool.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Good Morning Billie!

I am still experimenting with this, so this is my first try!

God bless our Troops!

Thank you, Col. Warrior, would you like the front row since you're the first to enroll this morning? :)

Ten-Hut! Present Tables! Go!

[Billie]

Morning, Rus.

[Gabz]

Good morning Finest!!!!!

This is the extent of my abilities this morning.
Pain meds have me so loopy the rest might as well be Greek.

[DollyCali]

Simply Beautiful (and learnin' stuff) Ms. Billie.

(glad you , ah hem, kept it "simple")

:-)

Will be back later to post something with your presented new skills.. First have a few fires to put out on the homefront & it is mom's birthday & need to do some special things.

[Billie]

Hi, Temple - it's cloudy and overcast here - have been out on the patio listening to the birds sing before it gets too hot to be outside.

[Diver Dave]

Mornin' Billie.

No need to set a fancy smancy table for me. I just do coffee for breakfast. :)

Oh, oh! FR's runnin' slow. I didn't break it this time. It started before I got here.

[Billie]

Bringing this post to today's thread:

Is it just me or is everybody's computer running slow?

Mine is literally crawling - has been since FR was down on Sunday, but today seems much worse. And I noticed several double posts yesterday - it stalls and doesn't appear to *post*, and after clicking *post* again, it shows twice. :(

[Billie]

I am still experimenting with this, so this is my first try!

Well I am thrilled to death you are doing this! You can control the width of the main table by specifying width=whatever - try: width=500. And your outside border is so pretty, add cellpadding=10 in that first table maybe to make it show up more? You can also keep your text from starting at the very edge by adding cellpadding=30 to the last table. (It gives a nice little margin on both sides. We usually use a < blockquote> command - habit! - but a cellpadding=30 will make sure that nothing penetrates that little space - top, bottom, and both sides. :)
