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 Gods 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 peoples hearts in applying all of it.
As we embrace Gods Word more fully, well know Him more deeply and desire to honor Him.
Read: Matthew 5:17-20

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning
Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen

This is going to be a post-n-run day.
Still have an urgent task to finish,

WOW, did you read about Kansas and Arizona

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.

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.
