Evening Lauren, Hugs.
Happy Monday Evening, Ladies!
The Red Devils did not have this problem in DaNang or Nam Phong. Fire up those F4-Phantoms and let them fly!
Thanks for the GREAT road trip, (((Lauren)))
Pretty soon we’ll be making our own fun road trip! Can hardly wait! :)
When the deck behind our house began caving in, I knew its repair would exceed my abilities. So I made some calls, got some bids, and picked a builder to construct a new deck.
Once the contractor was done, I took a close look at his work and noticed some problems. Seeking a second opinion, I called the local building inspector and got a surprise. The deck guy had not obtained a building permit. Working without official oversight, he had violated many points of the building code.
This incident reminded me of an important truth (other than asking to see the building permit): We often do less than our best if we dont have any accountability to the authority over us.
In Scripture, we see this principle explained in two of Jesus parables (Matt. 24:45-51; 25:14-30). In both cases, at least one unsupervised worker failed when the master was gone. But then we see a different approach in Proverbs 6. We see the example of the ant, which does good work without a visible supervisor. It intrinsically does its work without being monitored.
What about us? Do we do good work only when someone is watching? Or do we recognize that all our service is for God, and so do our best at all timeseven when no human authority is watching?
No one pinged me tonight. :(
Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
military, our allies, and their families
Thank you, Lauren, for preparing the Canteen for todays activities.
~ Today... Mostly cloudy this morning...
Then becoming mostly sunny. Highs in the upper 60s.
Northwest winds 5 to 10 mph.
~ Tonight... Mostly clear. Lows in the upper 40s.
Northwest winds 5 to 10 mph.
The look ahead tells me that we're finally
going to get more than one day of sunshine
and more fall like weather.
Well, I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Still a mound of work, but
I'm about to hand off a portion of it to someone else
which will lighten my load...maybe...
Got to get back to work.
But, you stay right where you are.
Don't touch that dial. And, remember Ill be watching!
The FR Canteen is
Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee,
pancakes,
conversation,
silliness,
and plain old BS
REMEMBER THEM
DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM
