Good morning, Snippy and everyone at the Foxhole.
Let's be honest. Are we always able to trust ourselves in everything? Even the apostle Paul said emphatically about himself, "I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified" (1 Corinthians 9:27). He wouldn't trust himself to do the right thing unless he kept his body under strict discipline. Today's Bible reading reminds us that "the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?" (Jeremiah 17:9.) It is not possible for any of us to fathom the extent of the deceptions of our heart. How then can we ever trust ourselves or anyone else completely? Jeremiah warned the last Judean kings against placing their trust in earthly kings (vv.5-6). But they continually sought help from Egypt. How foolish they were! They should have repented of their wickedness and returned to Almighty God for His help. Where can we put our trust for help in difficult and uncertain times? God's Word tells us that those who place their trust in God are like trees planted by the waters. Even in drought they will not cease to bear fruit (vv.7-8). Let's trust God to produce fruit in our lives. -Albert Lee
In what our eyes can see, But God asks us to trust in Him For our security. -Sper Don't let self-confidence replace your trust in God.

Good morning ALL. Another beautiful sunny day seems to be in the making this morning. Rocket over slept, which means I overslept this morning.
Good Morning, Foxhole
Treadhead Tuesdays are the coolest. I built both the Kangaroo and Priest models years ago. It was interesting to see that they used all types of tank chassis to transport troops. Pretty cool!
Hope all is well in your part of this great country of ours!
Thanks for the ping and ..........................
Cheers!
