Thank you very much for tonight's "Remembering Our Troops" thread!

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)

Thumbs Up

August 22, 2013

Pandora is one of the musical marvels of the Internet age. It helps you create your own personal radio station by allowing you to “customize” your music. It plays a song and you then click a thumbs up or thumbs down sign to indicate whether or not you like it. You end up with a grouping of only songs that you like.

Unfortunately, sometimes we do that with the Bible too. People may choose some Scripture passages they especially like and ignore others, and so they “customize” it to their preferences. The psalmist looked at God’s Word this way: “The entirety of Your Word is truth” (Ps. 119:160). And the apostle Paul told Timothy, a young pastor, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable” (2 Tim. 3:16).

The Scriptures were important to Jesus (Matt. 5:17-18), but He looked at them differently than the religious leaders of His day. To Him, “You shall not murder” was on the level of being “angry with [a] brother without a cause” (vv.21-22). Far from customizing Scripture, He was concerned about the motivation of people’s hearts in applying all of it.

As we embrace God’s Word more fully, we’ll know Him more deeply and desire to honor Him.

Lord, I don’t want to treat Your Word lightly or
to dismiss what seems too difficult. Show me
my heart and help me to obey from the heart
whatever You tell me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
When you open your Bible, ask the Author to open your heart.

Read: Matthew 5:17-20

The entirety of Your Word is truth. —Psalm 119:160
Bible in a Year:
Psalms 110-112; 1 Corinthians 5

CHARLESTOWN, Mass. (Jan. 14, 2008) The first major snowfall of the New Year blankets the USS Constitution. Despite the weather "Old Ironsides," remained open for free public tours. At 210 years-old, USS Constitution is the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world, manned by 67 active-duty United States Sailors and visited by nearly half a million visitors annually.

SOUP FOR THE TROOPS

WELCOME TO THE

(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen
for today's activities
This is going to be a post-n-run day.
Still have an urgent task to finish,
yeah, the same one I've been working on all week. UGH!

WOW, did you read about Kansas and Arizona
filing lawsuit against Fed govt
to change the voting registration form
to allow proof of citizenship?
We DESPERATELY, URGENTLY
need people like this in Maryland.
Maryland is run by limp, wet-noodle liberals.

Oh, speaking of urgently needed...
I need someone out in the entertainment world
to add a new line up to our local radio stations.
I am tired of having only country, hip-hop/teen hits,
and oldies to chose from.
We need a good blues/jazz station.
Even a nice New Age-Spa channel would be nice
to keep calm on those long commutes.
And I don't want to have to pay to listen to music either!
Bad enough I have to pay to watch TV!

Got to run.

I'm going to spoon up some wicked soup
and head back to work.
My apologies in advance if I don't make it back
to say hello personally.

DC METROLAND WEATHER

~ Today... Isolated thunderstorms this morning.
Skies will become partly cloudy this afternoon.
High 88F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

~ Tonight... Some clouds. Low 71F.
Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.

Making Z Zoup
A cup of this...a teaspoon of that...

The koala is one of the few land animals
that does not need water to supplement its food.

About 24 percent of alcoholics die
in accidents, falls, fires, and suicides.

If the moon were placed on the surface
of the continental United States,
it would extend from San Francisco
to Cleveland (2,600 miles).

Elephants, lions, and camels
roamed Alaska 12,000 years ago.
(now all Ma has to worry about are bears and moose)

The nation of Chile’s name is from an Indian word,
Tchili, meaning “the deepest point of the earth".

The FR Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in, sit down.
Grab a cup of joe, or tasty tea.
Mingle a bit, chat with the troops
or family member.
There's always plenty of conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS in the FR Canteen.

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
