A PRAYER OF PROTECTION

The light of God surround you
The love of God enfold you
The power of God protect you
The presence of God watch over you
Wherever you are, God is,
And all is well.
Amen.

BLESS THIS HOUSE
 Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day; 
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

A Missed Lunch

May 22, 2013

For me, food is more than a necessity—it’s a wonderfully enjoyable part of life! I enjoy sitting down to a well-prepared meal, especially when I’m feeling hungry. I imagine that the disciples were hungry for lunch when they returned to the well where Jesus was interacting with the Samaritan woman. They urged Him, “Rabbi, eat” (John 4:31). His response? “I have food to eat of which you do not know” (v.32), which made them wonder if someone had already brought Him something to eat (v.33).

I wonder if the disciples were so consumed with thinking about food that they couldn’t see past their picnic. They didn’t understand the significance of what was going on at the well. The most important thing to Jesus was “to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work” (v.34). He was focused on the spiritual needs of this woman who desperately needed what only He could give.

It’s easy to become preoccupied with needs of the moment. But Jesus invites us to get beyond our own interests—our own little “lunch”—to open our eyes to the souls who are searching for answers to their deepest needs.

So, join Jesus at the well, and let Him use you to tell others about the spiritual food only He can give.

Dear Lord, may my eyes be fixed not just on the things
I am interested in, but lift my eyes to see the
needy souls around me. Give me passion for the lost
and the joy of seeing others satisfied in You.
Be hungry to satisfy the needs of others around you.

Read: John 4:27-38

Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.” —John 4:34
Bible in a Year:
1 Chronicles 16-18; John 7:28-53

You Are a Pineapple
Like a pineapple, you have a tough exterior. You aren't one to be messed with, that's for sure.
But if people peel away your layers, they'll find you're quite sweet on the inside - with a strong inner core.

You have a strong moral fiber. You aren't easily swayed by popular opinion. You have your own ideas about what is right.
You are independent and self-reliant. You are honest with others and never ask too much of them.

It takes you a bit longer to make friends than most people, but the friends you have are for life.
You are quick to act and brave in your decisions. You go with your intuition, and it has rarely led you astray.

Actually, I am aging like a fine wine.
I get more complex and fruity all the time!

Hi and  photo Hugs2You-1_zps9409c58b.jpg

Had fun, worked 18 plus hours a day and didn't get hurt. A great adventure helping to teach first-aid and stocking kits and stuff.

Not bad, catching up on emails and stuff. Had 92 emails sitting in queue that needed answering. Still found time for my FreePer friends.

To: HiTech RedNeck
Thanks very much for the suggestion. I've had some problems with Google Translate - if you run my sentence through Google Translate, the result you get is in the third person singular - "he kneels." "Genuflectimus" is in the first person plural - "we kneel."

I used a translation from Google Translate when I started employing that sentence - the grammatical solecisms in that version were corrected by another FReeper whose command of Latin is much better than mine. It has been over 50 years since I took Latin.

Again, I thank you for your interest and suggestion. For the present, I will leave the comma out, but I remain open to any corrections.



"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
