Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Grace Takes Over Where Mom Left Off – Titus 2:12
By Pastor Ricky Kurth
“The grace of God… appeared… teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world” (Titus 2:11,12).
When I was a boy, my mother taught me to be good. I wasn’t under grace, I was under law—the law that Solomon called “the law of thy mother” (Pr. 1:8)! When I was good, she’d reward me, but when I was bad, she’d punish me—just like Moses’ law did for the Jews (Lev. 26). Her “rod of correction” (Pr. 22:15) was one of those long leather straps that barbers used years ago to sharpen their razors, and I can assure you it sharpened my behavior on many occasions!
But as every parent eventually learns, the day comes when a child is too old to take over your knee. The Apostle Paul had that in mind when he wrote, “a child…is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father” (Gal. 4:1,2). In those days, children had tutors who taught them and governors who punished them with a rod. But that only went on until Dad realized his boy had become a young man. After that, he’d correct his son with words, the way you parents of older children correct your adult sons.
In the rest of Galatians 4, Paul uses this as a simple illustration of the difference between law and grace. Under the Law, God treated His people in Israel as children, rewarding them when they were good but spanking them when they were bad with the correcting rod of droughts, famines, pestilences, and—when all else failed—by allowing their enemies to take them captive. But under grace, God treats us as adult sons, correcting us with words—the words of the Bible. The apostle of grace wrote: “All Scripture…is profitable…for correction” (II Tim. 3:16).
See the difference? Under the Law, God corrected the Jews with the rod of correction. Under grace, He corrects us with words of correction—the words found in His rightly divided Word. That means when you get some pestilent disease, or your community is going through a drought or famine, you don’t have to wonder if God is punishing you. He’s not!
Now there’s no question that God’s people in Israel learned to be good under the law. They often fell into idolatry (Lev. 26:30), but after God spanked them with 70 years of captivity in Babylon they never messed with idols again. So the Law used to work well in making God’s people godly. That’s probably why legalists insist that the law be taught today. They just don’t seem to understand how grace can teach us to be godly.
If you’re not sure that you understand it, consider how Paul spoke to the Ephesians about “fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness” and “filthiness” (Eph. 5:3,4), and then added,
“…because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not YE therefore partakers with them” (v.6,7)
Paul is saying, “Someday God’s wrath will come on unsaved people in Hell because of their sins, so don’t you partake of sin just because you know His wrath won’t come on you.” What kind of person would continue in sin just because he knows he won’t be punished for his sins?
There is an answer to that question. In New York, diplomats from all over the world meet to represent their countries in the headquarters of the United Nations. These ambassadors have what is called “diplomatic immunity.” That means they can break the law without being prosecuted by the law. Occasionally diplomats take advantage of this by flagrantly violating our laws. We have words for people like that, and none of them are very pretty! The word “ingrate” comes to mind, because you have to be pretty ungrateful to your host country to act like that.
But the same word applies to us when we choose to break God’s laws just because we are immune from His prosecution. Grace should teach us to deny ungodliness out of gratitude to God for saving us. If you’re not, why not begin to “live in denial”! You’ll be eternally glad you did.

Titus 2:11 ¶ For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Proverbs 1:8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
Leviticus 26:1 ¶ Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.
2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;……”
Proverbs 22:15 ¶ Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Galatians 4:1 ¶ Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Leviticus 26:30 And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
Ephesians 5:3 ¶ But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
“See the difference? Under the Law, God corrected the Jews with the rod of correction. Under grace, He corrects us with words of correction—the words found in His rightly divided Word. That means when you get some pestilent disease, or your community is going through a drought or famine, you don’t have to wonder if God is punishing you. He’s not!”
It seems challenging to see how such a definitive assertion related to differences in correction comports with what was reported in Paul’s letter to members of the “body of Christ” in Corinth (cf. 1 Cor. 12:27), given what evidently happened to many of the latter as it related to judgment and discipline:
1 Cor. 11:29-32 “For the one eating and drinking not discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself. Because of this, many are weak and sick among you, and many are fallen asleep. For if we were judging ourselves, we would not come under judgment. But being judged by the Lord, we are disciplined, so that we should not be condemned with the world.”
It is wise to take the position of judging and examining ourselves no matter what comes, as God can choose to use different situations to chasten and discipline us for purposes of correction and maturity.
This is great vid. if you’ve never seen it before….or even of you have.
quite a vocabulary and ability to put her thoughts and reasoning together
very impressive little woman
Wow.
The little girl articulately expresses more wisdom and grace from her heart than far too many adults are able to do…. She is unusually wise beyond her years.
Got ta get’cher Suess on the downlow now, you unnastand …
hasn’t got the word yet that masks are over
nim, this is LOL funny! Something tells me he’s not wrapped too tight.
nah, just a muscle-car guy with a sense of humor
that’s a carburetor air-filter canister on his head, for anyone who’s not old enough to remember before fuel injection
he’s also pretty tidy … looks like he’s putting his meat selection in a produce bag so he doesn’t leak bloody meaty blood all over his other groceries
now THAT guy’s a catch, ladies
I’m just pointing out a couple details for you to clue in on in this modern age
Had to teach my caveman that trick.
I LOLd, as the kids say
Taught my caveman that trick long ago. He even does it with produce!
LOLd again, I tell ya
My caveman is not susceptible to teachings of this kind….
LOL
His hand should be inside the bag (like a glove)
pick up the meat
pull bag over the meat with his other hand
~That’s the way to prevent meaty blood spread. ???
hahahahah, thought they were still under the hood !!
My bad.
Modern vehicles still have air filters for sure but the carburetor in passenger vehicles and even most commercial trucks has gone the way of the dodo bird, being replaced by “multi port fuel injection (MFI)”, then”Sequential Central Port Injection (SCPI)” and nowadays, “Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI)”.
Most automobile engine air filters are one-piece, rectangularly shaped objects that fit into a filter box that is located within the engine compartment, but often placed off to one side instead of over top of the engine.
The good news is that it’s still quite easy for the average car owner to replace their own air filter since the filter boxes general snap open by releasing a few simple clamps.
Hint: If you’re going to leave your car unused for a few weeks or longer, pop open the filter housing and place a few dryer sheets (Downy or whatever brand) in the intake side and then snap close the box. The sheets deter mice from getting up into your filter housing to make nests. Do the same with your cabin air filter if you know where to find it. DONT FORGET to remove the dryer sheets from the engine air filter box before you drive the car again. Some folks leave the one in the cabin filter box for the fragrance it puts inside the car…..
THANK YOU for that hint!!!
~Have had nuts /accorns and chewed wires
As bad as it sounds, this is a man I can respect. If you are going to wear a mask to protect yourself from this ‘Virus.’ wear one that would remotely work. This ate up contraption is much more effective than the crap that you see all of the concerned citizens wearing. I have been tempted to start walking around wearing a JSGPM or an M40 Pro Mask just to show them what real protection looks like.
my niece and husband just flew in for a visit
her thoughtful and protective husband got her an actual form-fitting respirator for the flight, the kind with dual filter canisters sticking out the front that you’d wear on a hazardous substance cleanup site
the airline let her wear the respirator but insisted on 2 paper masks also, one covering each of the exhale ports (the filter canisters are for incoming air, to protect YOU)
I didn’t ask for a photo, I just LOLd inside
from the facebooks
gone but not forgotten. . .
Gets me everytime.

THE TIME OF RELAPSE
“Will ye also go away?” John vi. 67
A penetrating question. Our Lord’s words come home most when He talks in the most simple way. We know Who Jesus is, but in spite of that He says – “Will ye also go away?” We have to maintain a venturing attitude toward Him all the time.
“From that time many of His disciples went back and walked no more with Him.” They went back from walking with Jesus, not into sin, but they relapsed. Many today are spending and being spent in work for Jesus Christ, but they do not walk with Him. The one thing God keeps us to steadily is that we may be one with Jesus Christ. After sanctification the discipline of our spiritual life is along this line. If God gives a clear and emphatic realization to your soul of what He wants, do not try to keep yourself in that relationship by any particular method, but live a natural life of absolute dependence on Jesus Christ. Never try to live the life with God on any other line than God’s line, and that line is absolute devotion to Him. The certainty that I do not know – that is the secret of going with Jesus.
Peter only saw in Jesus Someone to minister salvation to him and to the world. Our Lord wants to be yoke-fellows with Him.
v. 70. Jesus answers the great lack in Peter. We cannot answer for others.

Scenes Beyond the Grave – Marietta Davis
Chapter XVII – The Pandemonium – Mock Worship
17:2
Soon, however, my anxiety was relieved by the sudden exhaustion of his entire force, and I saw that he too, was limited in power, and was, moreover, to a very great extent, under the will of his audience.
One glance at the throng before him, was sufficient to reveal the cause of much of his suffering. There, were seated those whose countenances bespoke interior hate, mingling with wild maniacal relish; those who mocked his futile effort and indulged in fiendish delight at the expense of his dreadful sufferings. Yea, they relished his manifestation of keen despair as the uneasy wound relishes that friction which affords present maddening pleasure, but terminates in more excited pain. As he sank back, the expression of his countenance was that of horror beyond description. Around him flashed lurid fires, and his entire outward expression, revealed an inward consciousness as restless as some burning crater. His whole appearance bespoke agonies equal to the worst conceptions of the relentless sinner’s hell, and reminded me of the language of Jesus, who said, “And they shall go into outer darkness, where there shall be weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth; where the worm dieth not and the fire is not quenched.” While he lay enveloped in the fires of his own unhallowed passions, one of his audience arose and thus addressed him:
“Thou fiend of darkness! Thou child of hypocrisy! Deceiver, matchless deceiver! Thine is the hell of a heartless religious teacher. Adequate sufferings thou canst never endure. Thou madest merchandise of religion and the souls of men; then thou didst wrap thyself in the garments of ease and the expense of souls; thou didst not seek to reach the ruined heart with the soul-redeeming Truth of Heaven, but to please the ear and charm the fancy. Now thou art tormented. Arise! Thou false teacher, arise! And in thy silken gown display the order of thy false apostleship. Speak to us smooth things. Direct the movement of this broad gallery of mimic song. Hold thy blasphemy! Vent not thy cursings, for lo! thy Maker is just; wish not to move Him from His throne. His august majesty thou didst mock. Through thee, His glory should have shown, and by that light thousands should have been led to seek His face.”
At this sharp rebuke the sufferer sought to escape, whereupon the speaker continued.
“Nay, thou hypocrite! Even though thou wouldest thou canst not flee. Cast thy vision over this vast throng of sufferers, then ask thyself the cause. Though these have sinned, and each to his Master standeth or falleth, canst thou behold them in peace and a sense of innocence? Didst thou strive to lead them up to God? Yea, rather thy learned essays and elaborate expositions of the Sacred Word, adorned with poetic genius, addressed with most eloquent display, did they not lull in deeper slumber the dormant spirit, while wreathing thy mortal brow with human laurels?”
To be continued…

That’s an unusually accurate depiction of the two men.
O’Biden indiscriminantly destroying the border security that took years to build, and Gov. Abbott just looking on, areas crossed, because he has to figure out his most politically correct & safest position before stating it.
Slept better in the truck last night than I have been at home. In fact I almost overslept because I had the time on this new I-phone set to the wrong time zone. But arrived here at the first stop on time by waiting to get cleaned up until I after backing into the dock here.
Have the essential functions on this thing figured out now and the essential apps downloaded.
Funny how one can forget details of routines after only four months away. I forgot to enter the load ID number before I departed yesterday and thus the E-log wasn’t showing me on a trip until I corrected it once down here.
welcome back to your profession, rah
thanks for a’haulin our stuff for us
Thanks. Believe me, working is a vast improvement over what I have been doing the last 4 months. The run I’m doing now is all for the auto industry.
On The Road Again…YeeHaw
Yep. Round trip over 740 miles. There have been plenty of times I have done 700 or a little more in one driving shift. But I have to work back into it. I am thinking that when I think I am ready to go back to the job I was doing before, I will ask for a solo run to Nogales, AZ. Kind of a final test before graduation.

“LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:”
Psalms 10:17 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE – I am a CHILD – not a CHOICE!!!
. . . but deliver us from the Evil One.
Amen ?
Prayer of Saint Ioannikios the Great (+ 846)
My hope is the Father, my refuge the Son, my protection the Holy Spirit. O Holy Trinity, glory to Thee.
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, amen.
The Jesus Prayer
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

I have two question to the community.
First Question.
I have a problem with text wrap. My iPad 6 is not wrapping text while my iPhone 7 Plus dos not have this problem.
Second Question.
How does one post a picture from the photos into a comment. I am able to do it in CloutHub, Gab and Telegram without any problem, however I am having problems doing it on The Conservative Tree House.
Can anyone help or direct me to someplace on the site that these concerns are explained?
Photos must be on the internet and so you have to post the URL to the jpg in the comment box to have them appear in your comment. For a personal photo, you must first upload it to one of those free photo-sharing websites in order to be able to share it here.
I don’t know which photo sharing website is “the best” these days. I used to use Flickr. I have seen others use Imgur. Both with consistent success.
The photo will appear here in your comment as long as it remains at the URL you posted. If you delete it from the photo sharing website, then it will no longer appear here.
Thank You GB
Let me know if I am just starting to go crazy.
I am starting to fear that the democrats will finally “give in” to everyone who knows about and are vocal about the election fraud. I say fear due to how it could be handled. The first step would be to allow a few key judges to find the election fraudulent, that would raise the issue again. Once you take into consideration the For the People Act as well as a new round of stimulus money, it would be quite feasible for the following statements to be made.
“After a more extensive investigation it has been found that the election has too many discrepancies to be overlooked. Unfortunately with the cost of elections being as high as they are, the budget will not be able to withstand it after this last round of stimulus payments and assistance provided to issue the Covid vaccine to as many locations as possible. We will impeach and remove the current sitting president and replace him with the vice-president.”
Once that is allowed to establish a debt crisis in the minds of the citizens, it wouldn’t be hard to move forward with a requirement to increase income taxes across the board. Which of course will be meet with hostilities. As a “compromise” standardized wages could be implemented. True to seem like they are the good guys, the democrats will try for the $15 minimum, but of course that will not be able to pass. Once everything is voted on with a massive amount of mail-in ballots again, the government will have complete control on how much people make. We are not that far away from socialism. Its not that hard to cause uproars that will keep the general populace blinded to what the next steps are.
I will never say to stop fighting, I am a proud veteran who will in a moments notice lay down my life at the roots of the tree of liberty. I just hope that Trump or who ever will be the lead for true Americans is able to find a way around this type of outcome.
Joshua, IMHO, the U.S. are already pretty far into “socialism”, as the elements necessary to maintain a true constitutional democratic republic are being removed with increasing ease and speed, with little and insignificant pushback..
At this particular point in time, and without serious intervention and pushback from a strong majority of the general populace, the nation is dangerously close to finding ourselves forcibly under the control of full-blown strong central government-advocating communist totalitarians.

The kitty today was especially adorable. Love all your pictures.
The little sweetie needs his/her own song. How about ‘Soft kitty, little ball of fur’………
don’t have the words right, don’t remember them.
Sheldon’s mother (Young Sheldon) has sung it to him,
and the song was on ‘Big Bang’ once. (Like young Sheldon, can’t stand older Sheldon.)
But the silly song will live in your head the rest of the day.
Thanks again for the pictures, (love cats and dogs) Lynn

“Inconvenient Facts” HE News Interviews Scientist Gregory Wrightstone on Climate & Energy
https://humanevents.com/2021/03/03/inconvenient-facts-he-news-interviews-scientist-gregory-wrightstone-on-climate-energy/?fbclid=IwAR0rfqwdWuoK4EGZY8xPU6jrbHowcrjWIttkW3ht-hQ39vWgETj2rxSYM8Y
Excerpt:
People ask me why the politicians and others lie to us. I tell them I can’t see inside a man’s soul. It could be control, it could be taxes, it could be anti-capitalism. Whatever it is, it isn’t my field.”
When asked what the biggest misconception is within the climate conversation, Wrightstone says it is the myth that we are going through “unusual and unprecedented warming.” “It’s never been this hot,” he uses as the standard line he hears from both scientists and laypeople. “When they say that they are right, so long as they are only going back as far as 1900.” Wrightstone points to the fact that we are going through what is the fourth great warming period over the past 3,000 years.
“There have been three other warming periods we can point to and during each of them, civilizations flourished,” he says.
FWIW, I do miss being able to ‘Like’ Sundance’s articles. There used to be a ‘Like” button under each article.
CTH 2.0 software does not apparently include that feature.
Sometimes I really like an article, but I arrive here too late to be able to post a comment / thought that hasn’t already been said many times in various ways by others. Just clicking “like” would be enough to send a compliment to the author…
Menageri, were we discussing cookbooks several days ago? I want to add the TIME/LIFE series published in the ’60 for middle America. I caught 3 or 4 being discarded. Two on cooking in Italy, one Latin America and one provincial France.
I am shocked to read about the local families eating together the local foods drinking the local wines when I realize in a few short decades what our culture has become.
so interesting to read about the ancient culture of the 1960s.
one of the best food books is “BREAD AND JAM FOR FRANCIS”

Col. Ola Mize
This was the man in charge of the Special Forces Qualification Course when I went through. Believe me, nobody wanted to be called onto the carpet before this man! After Phase I which is where the greatest number of SF wannabes road the bus, any SF Trainee that failed a part of the training and was subject to termination from the program had to see Col. Mize for final judgement. Since the SF medic course was so academically difficult, many that failed asked to stay in the program but be trained as a weapons man, commo man, or engineer/demo man. Out of the many cases I heard of Col. Mize only allowed one to do that.
&ehk=Ptavfo50iJthSvfEz8cBJiee12NXqb%2bWGe7shaH8BDQ%3d&risl=&pid=ImgRaw
In case you missed or did not recognize the ribbon (The very top one), Col Mize was a MOH recipient. Word was that he killed the last 8 Chinese he took out in direct combat using an E-tool.
Here is his MOH citation:
CITATION
M/Sgt. Mize, a member of Company K, distinguished himself by conspicuous gallantry and outstanding courage above and beyond the call of duty in action against the enemy. Company K was committed to the defense of “Outpost Harry,” a strategically valuable position, when the enemy launched a heavy attack. Learning that a comrade on a friendly listening post had been wounded, he moved through the intense barrage, accompanied by a medical aidman, and rescued the wounded soldier. On returning to the main position he established an effective defense system and inflicted heavy casualties against attacks from determined enemy assault forces which had penetrated into trenches within the outpost area. During his fearless actions he was blown down by artillery and grenade blasts three times, but each time he dauntlessly returned to his position, tenaciously fighting and successfully repelling hostile attacks. When enemy onslaughts ceased, he took his few men and moved from bunker to bunker, firing through apertures and throwing grenades at the foe, neutralizing their positions. When an enemy soldier stepped out behind a comrade, prepared to fire, M/Sgt. Mize killed him, saving the life of his fellow soldier. After rejoining the platoon, moving from man to man, distributing ammunition, and shouting words of encouragement he observed a friendly machine-gun position overrun. He immediately fought his way to the position, killing 10 of the enemy and dispersing the remainder. Fighting back to the command post, and finding several friendly wounded there, he took a position to protect them. Later, securing a radio, he directed friendly artillery fire upon the attacking enemy’s routes of approach. At dawn he helped regroup for a counterattack which successfully drove the enemy from the outpost. M/Sgt. Mize’s valorous conduct and unflinching courage reflect lasting glory upon himself and uphold the noble traditions of the military service.

Fauci’s songs of doom aren’t working.
At the little truck stop I parked at last night to take my break in Tennessee, not a single person was wearing a mask. Not even the girls working there. This despite the fact that state still has a mask mandate.
The left has a real problem. They have used every way they can to increase the COVID morbidity and mortality numbers and they have no new way to increase them to show a spike. At the same time, the flu season is coming to an end (cases of influenza have dropped to near zero during this COVID scare). Many of the people most likely to die from COVID-19 are already gone and many others have had it and recovered. And now there are an ever growing number of people being vaccinated. And then there is the fact that we can’t go a week without a story of some Governor or Mayor blatantly violating the very restrictions they have ordered enforced upon their citizens. And finally, spring is coming on, and so is spring fever, and people are just done with this whole thing.
Just say no!
please explain how the Democrats could pass HR1 in the Senate using reconciliation. What rules would have to change. How are rule changes made? How do they vote on rule changes re: reconciliation?
i’m still having issues with this site. I assume its still being worked on?
today when i posted, using my laptop, the posts were there, checking in later, they were gone, and page numbers (for comments) at the bottom would show, IE: 3 pages , click on page 2, and it doesn’t show page 3. Just really weird stuff.
when i use my ps4 browser, all posts show up. Im guessing others are having this issue as well, for example, on page 2 of an article, halfway down, there are no upvotes for anyones post, like they are not there, or others are not seeing them.
lilbirdee12’s prayer:
Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.
Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.
Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and his family as they seek to lead America back to You. Also, we pray for Angels to protect and support our Sundance as he works for justice and peace.
Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.
We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.
In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
Amen
Amen.
Amen.
Amen.
