Thursday Mornning Bump for a new Foxhole, yeaaaaaa

The following picture pretty much describes my day yesterday...

Hey P.E. did the squirrel cage disintegrate on the furnace blower? A couple of the guys at work Tuesday night were pretty impressed. BTW they said they could always use another mechanic and wanted to know if Bittygirl wanted a job :-)

Hope everybody has a great day

Regards

Yes that was a re-enactment but I am sorry I don't recall where it was for sure.

Probably in Virgina but I just don't recall for sure

It sure did. The mechanical guys here had the same reaction your co-workers did.

The left half is "truly" Polish; add the Golden Crown to the head of the White Eagle and you've got the Polish National Emblem with a beautiful starry sky in the background :-)

We look good together. ;-)

The Greatest Honor

Read:
Esther 4:10-17

I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish! —Esther 4:16

Bible In One Year: Genesis 31-32; Matthew 9:18-38

The king of Persia had signed a document calling for the extermination of all Jewish people under his rule. When the Jewish captive Mordecai heard the news, he challenged his niece, the newly crowned queen Esther, to plead for the lives of her people.

To approach the king uninvited could bring a sentence of death. Yet, for the sake of God's people, Esther took that risk.

During the 20th century, millions of Christians died as martyrs. This is a terrible tragedy, but we can take comfort in the knowledge that those who are killed for their devotion to Jesus die with the highest honor.

Corrie ten Boom's father saw this truth clearly. During WWII, a Dutch clergyman refused shelter to a baby, saying, "We could lose our lives for that Jewish child." Father ten Boom took the baby into his arms and said, "You say that we could lose our lives for this child. I would consider that the greatest honor that could come to my family."

Most of us will never face a test like the ten Boom family and like Esther did. But all of us can take courage from their example. They knew that there is a fate worse than death.

To die for our service to God and our love for Him is indeed the greatest honor. —Herb Vander Lugt

Life's labor done, as sinks the clay,
Light from its load the spirit flies,
While heaven and earth combine to say,
"How blest the righteous when he dies!" —Barbauld

"Do not be afraid of those who kill the body." —Jesus
