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 †

Sounds pretty clear to me.
He is or isn’t.
And oh. He is! ✝️
I once had a couple nice men from the Kingdom Hall come to my door wanting to enlighten me. I quoted them this verse. They talked with me for almost an hour in the freezing cold. When they left, I believe I saw some enlightenment.

Good morning America, 🙂
One of my all time favorite groups from the late 60s / early 70s. Undun is an awesome arrangement that uses a different pattern from the traditional rock songs of that day; the full arrangement performed by the entire band (this is abbreviated) is worth looking up and hearing.
Peppermint
By Pastor John Fredericksen
I like peppermint. It has a refreshing taste and it can help refresh my breath, when it needs it, making it more suitable to interact in public. Peppermint also serves as an illustration or reminder of what we should be striving to be for the Lord.
Among Paul’s praises of Philemon was that “the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee” (Phile. 7). This precious saint had chosen to be like a peppermint for all the believers with whom he came in contact. It’s wonderful to read about this kind of testimony and what made him so refreshing to others. He demonstrated a sense of “love and faith… toward all saints” (v. 5). When these characteristics are present and genuine, they manifest themselves in a warmth and interest in others that is unmistakable. It will also be obvious in the tone and content of every word that comes out of one’s mouth.
Philemon was approachable even about sensitive matters. Paul felt free to be bold in asking him to kindly and lovingly receive someone (Onesimus) who had wronged him (vv. 10-16). This quality of being approachable engendered a respect, closeness, and freedom in relation- ships that made Philemon a blessing to others.
Philemon could be expected to respond in a correct spiritual way. Paul had “confidence”(v.21) that Philemon would do the right thing in the right way and with the right spirit. No wonder, then, that this believer refreshed the saints around him, including the Apostle Paul. Philemon was a grace believer who not only believed in grace doctrine, he lived and demonstrated grace.
As we consider this godly example, we should apply these truths by asking ourselves if we truly want to be the kind of saint that is like a refreshing, spiritual peppermint. We should want to be this kind of saint! A good way to begin is by asking the Lord to help us develop the kind of Christian character that makes us refreshing to other saints: loving, approachable, and so responsive to the Scriptures that others can be confident in our actions and reactions. If this is your prayer and heart’s desire, we encourage you to look for verses in Paul’s letters that will further empower you toward becoming this kind of godly example.

Philemon 1:5 Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
7 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
Philemon 1:10 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
11 Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
12 Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
14 But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
16 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
Philemon 1:21 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
I was listening to some more Allison Krause music when I came across this. Allison particularly likes the music composed by the Louvin borthers. If you haven’t listened to them, if you like “pure” country music, you really should give this a listen. Allison describes this as especially moving because it’s about a little boy finding that the little girl next door, his playmate (actually his soulemate) is moving. You’ll have to listen carefully to the words but the songs story, embodying classic country, is about love and loss.
She’s a gift to American music.
🙂 You know, I think it’s time for Allison to put Union Station back together. Music like this is a balm for the soul. We need more it.
I would buy anything they produced.

I read Charlie Louvin’s book after he died. It was real good, but loaded with profanities.
The cover was from one of their gospel albums. I still have a couple of them.
My Grandmother had quite the collection of gospel albums done by major artists from the 50’s – 70’s all venues of music. But not one of their popular albums. When she’d say put on some Elvis it wasn’t Heartbreak hotel.

It’s Caterday, Treepers! Pet your kitties for me! 🙂
Die in a home instead of a cage . . . A stark reality of rescuing and fostering homeless kitties (and dogs). I think it takes a special persion to do this. It’s something that not everyone is up to . . . It really is a step beyond just taking in foundling kittles—as all of our kitties for over 50 years have been. While we remember the all, and both miss them, and celebrate their lives with us, the experience of fostering kitties that may die on you—over and over—requires a special kind of human spirit. But then . . . when the kitty doesn’t die and, instead, gets better and thrives and becomes a wonderful companion you can’t help thinking that, at least for a moment, all is right in the world.
It’s Caterdayh, Treepers!
Good morning Garrison. I think on Thursday night you recommended a book. I forgot to write it down and now the thread is gone.
Small reminder for me please??

Van Morrison blacklisted for

Clapton is taking heat too, as he regrets getting vaccinated. He got very ill.
In the 60’s and 70’s the whole musical establishment was trying to wake people up to the Vietnam War, civil rights,the evil CIA, the wickedness in governments. Van Morrison and Eric Clapton are still looking for the truth. Most of today’s liberals and “artists” are not honest at all even if they call themselves “woke.” I am not trying to put a spin on the past. There were the rabble rousers and druggies and marxists in force then too, but freedom of speech was really valued as in ” I disagree with your statement but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”
Wow. What a photo…..
<a href=”https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/1796155/israels-iron-dome-intercepts-rockets-gaza.jpg”></a>
those Iron-Dome missiles have a helluva tracking-and-guidance system
looks to me like they’ve got onboard seeking guidance
and maybe in conjunction with land-based radar and computerized master guidance too
the Iron-Dome flock has to knock out ALL the incoming flock
you can see some of the Iron-Dome missiles diverting, looping around, etc
maybe they get commands from mission control computer “hey, there’s a straggler off to the left, you need to divert and go after that one”
powerful computer on the ground to optimize the evolving target cluster and issue change-of-target commands
only guessing, I should go and actually read about it, I guess

With a referral from Gus Grissom, dad, Air Force test pilot, got an interview with NASA. Hired, his career was Gemini, Mercury, Apollo, Shuttle. Booster rockets, astronaut training, worked with von Braun, Shuttle payload avionics, xyz etc.
Dad stayed in Air Force Reserves. That job was missile guidance systems. A joy seeing this pic. A layer of dad’s work never seen in a photo.
Thank you Motzilla, the pic beautiful, watery eyes in memories.
How many realize, the work in the photo, above, began with slide rules ?
I do. I took several college engineering math courses using a wooden K&E slide rule.. “Accurate to 3 sig figs”

The HABIT of RISING to the OCCASION
“That ye may know what is the hope of His calling….” Eph. i. 18
Remember what you are saved for – that the Son of God might be manifested in your mortal flesh. Bend the whole energy of your powers to realize your election as a child of God; rise to the occasion every time.
You cannot do anything for your salvation, but you must do something to manifest it, you must work out what God has worked in. Are you working it out with your tongue, and your brain and your nerves? If you are still the same miserable crosspatch, set on your own way, then it is a lie to say that God has saved and sanctified you.
God is the Master Engineer, He allows the difficulties to come in order to see if you can vault over them properly – “By my God have I leaped over a wall.” God will never shield you from any of the requirements of a son or daughter of His. Peter says – “Think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you.” Rise to the occasion; do the thing. It does not matter how it hurts as long as it gives God the chance to manifest Himself in your mortal flesh.
May God not find the whine in us anymore, but may He find us full of spiritual pluck and athleticism, ready to face anything He brings. We have to exercise ourselves in order that the Son of God may be manifested in our mortal flesh. God never has museums. The only aim of the life is that the Son of God may be manifested, and all dictation to God vanishes. Our Lord never dictated to His Father, and we are not here to dictate to God; we are here to submit to His will so that He may work through us what He wants. When we realize this, He will make us broken bread and poured-out wine to feed and nourish others.
Oswald Chambers
May 15th Devotional
Great devotional. Glad I read it. ?✝️
Over and over Gods word points out we live in another dimension once saved. We are citizens of heaven.
I have trouble with the daily distinctions. Laws of God do not apply to unsaved.
Just as hell is where you go because you do not know God and he does not recognize you. He doesn’t throw you in there.
Same here, you do not have those benefits or instructions. Judgements are on his children.
There is an Oprah YouTube where she explains to succeed you must relinquish all thoughts of God. I understand now how that fits.
God never gives us anything that will destroy us, not so with the ungodly. And to receive all that destroys you is what the world offers.
Always a choice.
Lucky Cat!

Look at that grin of his! You made my day with this.
Verse of the Day for Saturday, May 15, 2021

“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!”
Psalms 133:1 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE
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.

Sundance posted the following tweet about Apple:
Good thread from a good writer.
I have thus far maintained my silence on the Apple situation as I’ve sought to settle things amicably with the company that I admired, and at which I hoped to build the future of ads privacy.
As they however are not maintaining their silence on the matter, neither will I.
******************
Hope Apple keeps on writing about their ‘inclusiveness’ and Martinez takes full advantage to sue Apple and the individual snowflakes involved <i>(“More than 2,000 employees signed the letter prior to its publication in The Verge.”)</i> at Apple to kingdom come.
Here’s some background:
“A group of Apple employees has written a petition asking for an investigation into the hiring of Antonio García Martínez — a former Facebook product manager and author of the book Chaos Monkeys.
In the petition, the employees expressed concern about García Martínez’s views on women and people of color. His hiring “calls into question parts of <b>our system of inclusion</b> at Apple, including hiring panels, background checks, and our process to ensure our existing culture of inclusion is strong enough to withstand individuals who <b>don’t share our inclusive values</b>,” they write.
At Apple, women make up 40 percent of the workforce but only 23 percent of the research and development teams, according to the company’s most recent diversity report. Half of the workforce is white, and 27 percent is Asian. “<b>Across Apple, we’ve strengthened our long-standing commitment to making our company more inclusive</b> and the world more just,” reads the header on the website containing the report. <b>“Where every great idea can be heard. And everybody belongs.”</b>

Hire only the best qualified applicant into each position and let the “diversity” chips fall where they may.
Diversity includes . . . everybody!
Let us all pursue our own interests, passions, and aptitudes and enjoy this beautiful world in peace.
Hmmmm… who
Hmmmm…and now another “UFO”sighting by the Navy:
https://www.cnn.com/videos/business-videos/2021/04/15/navy-pyramid-ufo-video-orig-jm-kj.cnn
Priming the pump?
After decades of calling people who thought there were such things as UFOs and aliens (as in outer space) among us nuts, we are slowly being fed videos and news stories from “credible” sources (airline pilots, U.S. Navy, British Air Force…) that maybe, just maybe, there are UFOs. (As in from outer space! ?)
…and maybe there are not. But doesn’t that make a good story to scare the crap out of everyone on the planet?
…and you thought a pandemic was bad…

I remember seeing “Amazing Polly” mentioned in the past, but have not noticed mentions of her lately – until I came across this one whilst perusing GLP last night.

SIDC – Solar Influences Data analysis Center (oma.be)
Just thought you would like to know why your radio reception and possibly other disruptions of electronic media may occur. Also the Aurora Borealis will be seen further south than usual. For whatever reason it seems that these earth directed CMEs occur more often during periods of lower solar activity.
This one is not near the strength to cause serious problems. But if we got hit by a big one it would be a disaster and another reason for having a home on demand generator with separate fuel system.

“Policing police biases with new polygraph test” is the headline in the print version (May 9).
From the long article: “A group of retired FBI agents led by a former Las Vegas agent […] has developed and patented […] a background screening tool initiative they hope […] will be used by law enforcement agencies to prevent the hiring of police officers with biases.”

Personal rant because I am still a bit let down by how politicians and their minions were able to weaponize COVID to manipulate our election system.
The NASA OSIRIS probe is on it’s way back to earth with asteroid samples. We already know our so called “scientists” can’t contain contagions to a level that should give any of us confidence. Our country is freaking out about a virus and yet is celebrating bringing things from space to earth?
We have space station access and should have an underground moon base by now to study such things, but no, Covid is some sort of political tool, but bringing space rocks to earth instead of them being studied on a space station or somewhere else is a good idea?
There is a bit of tongue and cheek in my post because I love the space program and all it has done for us, but honestly if we cant contain a China virus on this planet, why in the hell would we bring something here from space that might contain something worse?
I, for one, welcome our new Andromeda Strain!
I had an epiphany today… I am not ready to be the mother of toddlers, especially little boys.
I was watching the three-year-old running around on the playground (my husband had the one-year-old.) I kept finding myself wanting to jump in and… help him through every interaction with the other children, ensure he didn’t try anything too big for him, or get hurt at all. I basically wanted to bubble wrap him. When he let go of the monkey bars my heart stopped for a second.
I remember my own childhood, running wild and coming back with an interesting new assortment of bruises, scratches, and scrapes. I know that’s what healthiest. I know that, even if he breaks a bone, it will heal. Blood clots, bruises vanish. I can’t, and shouldn’t, protect him forever. He needs to learn by experience, get dirty, get hurt even. I can’t shepherd him through every interaction with peers. One day he’ll have to learn to assert himself, not let others run over him – and he needs to develop that confidence himself. He needs to learn to not be bossy. He needs to fail sometimes, and learn that it’s okay and it happens to everyone and to pick himself up and go on.
I know all this. I just… am having a hard time applying it.
I can empathize. I am sure I was overprotective of my son when he was little. It is so hard not to be. I think that is what fathers are for, to let them go a little more. I can tell you this……….you are more prepared than you think. You already know what you need to do and what he has to do to grow.
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.
Amen.
listening to Ed Ames, “My Cup Runneth Over” . . . next up, “Try to Remember”
so, we have one of those Amazon Alexa gadgets . . . it was a gift to my Mom from a friend of ours who thought she would enjoy “ordering up” songs . . . we have the microphone turned off except when we want to tell her to play a song . . .
Mom and I still harbor a bit of anxiety about whether or not Alexa is REALLY off so sometimes when we are kidding around about Big Brother, our conversation takes on a somber and respectful tone, just in case (but still, kidding around)
so I went over to Alexa to ask her to play “Try to Remember” (the hit from “The Fantastiks” which was such a hit for Ed Ames)
turn up the microphone again:
“Alexa . . . Ed Ames . . . Try to Remember”
“Eggs”
“What? Wait, no. Alexa . . . Ed Ames . . . Try to Remember”
“Eggs. I have already added eggs to your shopping list.”
“Alexa . . . Ed Ames . . . Try to Remember”
“I have already added eggs to your shopping list . . . will there be anything else?”
I clicked off the damn microphone . . . talking to myself now . . .
“Oh forget it . . . it’s Saturday night and I know a guy named HAL . . . you two should get together.”
Mom asked who was I talking to, wasn’t Alexa going to play the other song? I told her what happened, that Alexa thought I wanted eggs on the shopping list when I said “Ed Ames . . . Try to Remember”
“Honey, maybe Alexa thought you were criticizing her when you said ‘try to remember’ so that’s why she did that.”
Entirely possible. Imagine all the stuff people must yell at these things!
✝️ Thank You, Lord, for this day.
Amen
