Double Rainbow in the San Joaquin

Good morning Dolly from the southern shore of Lake Erie in Huron. There is a rumor that spring WILL come to us in "The Best Location in the Nation." I had hoped to meet some of you guys at Hywet Gardens or some other FR meet-up last year. Of course, there is always Cedar Point. (Hope Oliver is doing well).

You did a really nice job with today's thread! Thank you! Who doesn't love rainbows?! (:

[kassie]

No Need Is Too Trivial

Read:
Isaiah 49:13-18

As a father pities his children, so the Lord pities those who fear Him. —Psalm 103:13

Bible In One Year: Joshua 13-15; Luke 1:57-80

Several mothers of small children were sharing encouraging answers to prayer. One woman admitted that she felt selfish when she troubled God with her personal needs. "Compared with the huge global needs God faces," she explained, "my circumstances must seem trivial to Him."

Moments later, her little son pinched his fingers in a door and ran screaming to his mother. She didn't say, "How selfish of you to bother me with your throbbing fingers when I'm busy!" No, she showed him great compassion and tenderness.

As Psalm 103:13 reminds us, this is the response of love, both human and divine. In Isaiah 49, God said that even though a mother may forget to have compassion on her child, the Lord never forgets His children (v.15). God assured His people, "I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands" (v.16).

Such intimacy with God belongs to those who fear Him, and who rely on Him rather than on themselves. As that child with throbbing fingers ran freely to his mother, so may we run to God with our daily problems.

Our compassionate God doesn't neglect others to respond to your concerns. He has limitless time and love for each of His children. No need is too trivial for Him. —Joanie Yoder

No heart too small, no world too wide
To feel the Master's touch;
Dear Lord of all, we give Thee thanks
For Thou hast sent so much. —Michael

God bears the world's weight on His shoulder, and He holds His children in the palm of His hand.

Wonderful beautiful thread, Dolly! :)

Just a few days after 2004 election, one morning just after sunrise, I went out to the bird feeders to fill them. I had heard the rats were attempting to play games with the state Ohio, recount or something, UGH. That morning I saw the most brilliant beautiful rainbow. It gave me such peace. Sounds silly, it was a sign to me, not to worry. LOL

Is NicknamedBob published? He's fantastic. :)

[GodBlessUSA]

Beautiful Message The Mayor. No need is too trivial for Him.I have felt that way before. Thanks for the Good Morning Post ! :)

[The Mayor]

Your very welcome. Excellent one this AM..

[snugs]

Wow apart from the mountains that reminds me of the trees at Symara in Crete.

I must try to dig some of those photos out one day and post them.

morning Springman! just missed you by minutes. I am not familiar with web TV. Why does it shut down? not enough RAM ?(does it even have RAM).

Before I got my new computer & DSL, there were three threads that I literally could not fully open: Finest; Pookie's toons & the Dose. It would all load VERY slowly(often an hour or more) & then many of the pix would be the dreaded red Xs. I went from a 256 memory to a gig of memory & processor from 1400 to 3400..and then got Cable at same time.

What a difference!

I learned NOT to complain as I realized the bigger/faster computers & cable/DSL were the ways of the Internet. It would be rather like me leaving at the same time for a function 50 miles away & all going in car & me on my bike & me complaining they were going too fast. You need to work with what you have & do the best you can.

I have heard of people having web TV ...just have never seen it & don't know how it operates. THANK YOU for stopping by this morning! (ah you work the afternoon shift..

[DollyCali]

Good morning. We are going to have an Ohio/WV "get together" after Easter.. it will prolly be during week & probably south of us (we try to accommodate the folks from southern Ohio & WV who meet with us) Will definitely let you know!

Thanks for stopping by at the Finest today

My oliver died at just under 5 years from collapsed lung/unknown cause - on Dec 12. Life is still difficult over that passage.

Cherishing the quiet moments when we can just sit back and really appreciate miracles.

Who doesn't love rainbows?! (:

I think the half cup folks.. they are often busy complaining about the rain that might have proceeded the rainbow that they miss the "blessing"... like a lot of other things in life. Negativity really does prevent you from capturing the moments of joy often.

[DollyCali]

wow you found a rainbow with our troops! thanks freema! been thinking of you & your family...hugs
