Never forget the fallen.
Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU
for your service!
We have had nice spring weather but son's work schedule hasn't allowed us out to the range yet, soon though.
Howz things with you, is it time to paint your fence again? 😁
Howdy, beachiee. *HUGZ*
I hope I managed to get here before you head off to dreamland. We’ve had internet problems the past several days and it just came back on.
Hope things are going well up there. You getting any of this summer weather? It was HOT today.
Ok, done. Left over pizza from lunch. We got drive-up from Fazoli’s. Hope you’ve had a good week.
Good evening, du ((HUGS))
All is well here. Hope it's the same with you.
It was a tad warmer today. We will be getting warmer tomorrow.
Have you gotten the rain yet?
Well, it’s good your son is still working.
Yes, retirement is nice.
Please!! Don’t mention the fence. I hope we are ready to move before it needs it again.
We have plans to go target practicing with son, daughter-in-law and some friends in a couple of weeks. I might even get to shoot the big guns. hehe
Bible in a Year:
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
As I listened to the piano tuner work on the elegant grand piano, I thought about the times when Id heard that very same piano pour out the incredible sound of the Warsaw Concerto and the rich melody of How Great Thou Art. But now the instrument desperately needed to be tuned. While some notes were right on pitch, others were sharp or flat, creating an unpleasant sound. The piano tuners responsibility wasnt to make each of the keys play the same sound but to assure that each notes unique sound combined with others to create a pleasing harmonious whole.
Even within the church, we can observe notes of discord. People with unique ambitions or talents can create a jarring dissonance when theyre joined together. In Galatians 5, Paul pleaded with believers to do away with discord, jealousy, fits of rage, [and] selfish ambition, which would destroy fellowship with God or relationships with others. Paul went on to encourage us to embrace the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (vv. 20, 2223).
When we live by the Spirit, well find it easier to avoid unnecessary conflict on nonessential matters. Our shared sense of purpose can be greater than our differences. And with Gods help, each of us can grow in grace and unity as we keep our hearts in tune with Him.
In what ways might I be causing discord among the body of believers? How can I spread harmony?
Gracious God, teach me how to get in tune with the Spirits leading and live in harmony with others.
Leftover pizza? Now I want a pizza! LOL
Been busy walking and chores, so yeah week has been good. Thanks.
Pizza is contagious. LOL! All someone has to do is mention it, and we get the taste of it and want to order one ourselves. LOL!
Howdy, radu!
Hope you had a good day today. How is the weather? It was supposed to rain yesterday and the clouds simply melted away when they got close to here. I was so disappointed! And it’s 87 right now. Waaaaay too warm for 8:30ish.
Thanks, beachy, for today's Just Hangin' Café.
