Hi MA! (waving) :o)
Hope you’re having a good day!
*HUGS*
Howdy MeekMom! *HUGS*
Doing great here thanks, and I hope you are having a nice good summer too!
FR is bein’ a little wacky here, how about you?
In Thailand, the people greatly love and admire King Bhumibol (Rama IX), who has led them for over 60 years. To display their respect for the king, the Thai people wear bright yellow shirts every Monday, because yellow is the official color of the king.
As we seek to live for our King, the Lord Jesus Christ, we should also show our colors of allegiance and appreciation for all He has done for us. But how? What are the colors that declare to the world that we serve the King of kings and Lord of lords?
The night before His crucifixion, King Jesus told us what our colors should be when He said, By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another (John 13:35). His disciple John echoed this when he wrote, Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another (1 John 4:11).
When we display Christs love for our fellow believers, it is more than just kindness or care. It is one of the most tangible ways we can show our love and devotion for the Savior.
As we interact with fellow Christ-followers, lets be sure to show our colors. That will honor our King before a watching world.
Howdy there Randy!
Seeing myself coming and going these days, LOL!
Another few weeks, and a bit of a break. WOO HOO!
Hope you’re doing well!
Good evening to you Stephanie, it’s good to see you!
Glad that you are enjoying the threads in the Canteen.
There may be a Patriot Guard Rider Chapter in your area, MS. B and Randy may be able to help you find one. The PGR participate in many amazing events.
Hey hon. I’m doin’ good. The weather around Chicago is coolin’ off some. So, that’s good. I look forward to Fall & Winter! :)
I’m watchin’ the Cubbies beat the Pirates! :)
Yeah, I noticed it’s slow here at FR. Slow for the pages to load. Oh well.
The bonus here is that we are also showing our colors to those who haven't (yet) accepted our Lord and Savior.
Heather Jutras Glasgow grieves at her brother's grave in Arlington National Cemetery, Aug. 24, 2008. She, her mother, father and younger brother participated in the last day of "Run for the Fallen," a cross-country memorial event to honor troops who died in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

May God bless the Jutras family. :)
They are indeed beautiful young ladies, thanks for posting!
Hope you and Mrs. Sand had a wonderful anniversary!
I was thinking it was the boat show.
Ah well, I miss these things
Hope the RV show went well. Fuel is a paycheck a gallon but still... its the American dream to be able to go where ya like when ya like, and people will pay good money for that.
Thanks for the salute!
Thanks, unique, for the perfect woohoo.

That is great. I’ve been looking into trying to get involved with something like that. When the war began things would go on at the armory near us but it has to have been two years since I’ve heard of any. During that time I was doing some things with sending things to the troops through this woman whose son was over there. (He’s back now.) So I’ve been thinking a lot of about that.
Good evening Mayor, and thank you for our Daily Lesson from the Bible.
Now this was all her idea -
Bust our butts cleaning the house, packing up the last of DC’s stuff to move to PHX next weekend, buy a new vacuum, and finish cleaning. LOL!
