You are back with us ... this makes my heart happy, Alamo-Girl ...

Is there any way we could convince you to take some time for you?! ... Just a bit, mind ... for we would have to chain you down for more than a bit ...LOL!!!

Oddly ... I was just coming over here to give your hard work another *bump* ...

Please ... do not feel the need to reply to the hundreds of replies to you ... just take a minute and let them all cloak you in love ... and maybe some much needed strength ... you've done it for us more than you will ever know.

WELCOME BACK, dear Alamo-Girl!!!!

In recent days I have mentioned lasting things ... those things which make us know that you can bring our Towers down ... our planes too ... but out of the dust and debris ... the lasting things prevail ... some simple ... a hand freely held ... a heart openly given ... some stunning ... a life freely and openly given.

I see our Alamo-Girl is back ... lasting things ... so now I only want to ask you all to please stay alert ... stay safe ... stay informed ... and this is one of the best places to be for that ... but above ALL ... hold tight to the lasting things ... they will see you through, they will.

As Alamo-Girl will tell you ... PRAISE GOD!!

Okay, here's a newbie question. Why do people avoid typing out the word God? I've seen several posts that have G-d rather than God. At first I thought that it was a sign of disrespect from nonbelievers, but I've seen it used in context by people who are obviously devout Christians.

So what gives?

I can begin to answer your question ... though others more informed will hopefully fill in the rest...

In the Jewish religion it is disrespectful to write His entire name .... thus the "-" instead of the "o" ...

I always worry I am offending people for whom I have such high respect ... because I do put the "o" between the "G" and "d" .... each time I type it ~~~ I worry ...

Thank you so very much for the warm welcome back!!!

I'm going to take your advise and go to the Ozarks for the weekend, watch the leaves change, feed a few catfish and listen for the water rippling!

Praise God!!!
