Jesus Christ said,

“If a house is divided against itself,
that house CANNOT stand; his end has come.”
(Mark 3:26).

Jesus Christ said,

“A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.” (Matthew 10:36).

Belma, welcome. I’m very glad you came. I could listen to you blogging all day. You have a way of talking that’s very unique.
And yes, thank you for reminding me to pray for our service men and women. They really need our prayers and support, being so far away from home. Thank You Jesus for knowing right where they are and for protecting them and for keeping them warm and safe. And for sending them home to their loving families who miss them.

Semper Fi pegramsdell
“You Define Semper Fi ” was a poem I just copied to keep.
Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time” these words are from “A Psalm Of Life”. by Longfellow. My computor is such a wonderful tool.
You know this blog is new to me and I like it because it’s like a soliloquy.
We must continue to pray for our service men and women.

How can 2 walk together except they agree. Maybe one is tired and ready to rest and another is just beginning and is on fire for the Lord. Or maybe one is running ahead of the Lord Not waiting for his timing. Be still and know. Have you not heard. He is not slack concerning his promises. He’s not willing that any should perish but that all should come to know
him, I’m drinking at the fount of living waters and my soul is satisfied. Remember too much study is a weariness of the flesh. Just be still and know he is in control. What’s done for Jesus will last.
Mart I remember your father Richard I used to sing “Open the door Richard” when I’d pick up my Daily Bread and my bible.
Thanks for sending me the large print now.

So what are you saying in ten words or less. Dumb it down for me to understand. You are by no means offending me. I just can not understand what your point is and I want to understand.

poohpity,
Yes many do. In fact many lost men get their hands dirty and don’t turn a deaf ear to the poor. The Church as a whole works with those who suffer… I agree to all you say. However I think you’ve missed my point.

None of these things are what I refer to…Sorry if you are offended – perhaps I am just a poor communicator.

Peace & Grace to you

Natusnemo,
Christ did come to change the nations one individual at a time. There are many of us that do more than watch as evils are done and work for change in the world around us. There are also many of us that know what is going on in the world and do not turn a blind eye or a deaf ear to the suffering human race. Not just by reading specific authors but by getting our hands dirty in helping the poor and the lost.

I took a piece of plastic clay
And idly fashioned it one day
And as my fingers fashioned it still
It bent and yielded to my will.

I came again when days were past
The bit of clay was hard at last
My early impress still it bore
And I could change its form no more.

You take a piece of living clay
And gently form it day by day
Molding with your power and art
A young boy’s soft and yielding heart.

You come again when years are gone
It is a man you look upon
Your early impress still he bore
And you can change him never more

These are words from a Boy Scout Magazine I found that interested me again I was a den mother when my husband was a cub scout pack leader. We had 8 Dens and saw several families come together and join the Church which was sponsering us. Next month quite a bit of news will be about Abraham Lincoln and I’m an 85 year old grandmother of 6 and great grandmother of 5 and I hope to watch the inaugeration of our new president and just think, there’s going to be 4 first ladies move into the white house with him. Whoever said there’s no house built for 2 families(generations)
