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 †

How could Solomon have 700 wives, and 300 concubines, and only have one son?
Probably little dispute, that this Song of Solomon, is one of the most neglected books in the Bible. I haven’t found too many commentators that seemed comfortable or confident expounding it; likely due to its very sensual descriptions and metaphors.
There was a small paperback that we read many years ago, by Watchman Nee, called, The Song of Songs: in which he did a marvelous job expounding the seeming carnal descriptions, as deeply and truly spiritual teaching about the Spirit led life in Christ and His believers. It starts out with the new believer being extremely selfish, and slow to respond, and many sore humiliations and chastisements that she had to go through to learn; until at the end of the Song, she is a fully mature, and capable of caring for others, and bringing up the younger ones.
Very interesting! Thank you!
Morning Ya’ll 🙂
Mornin’ jay 🙂

But Jay! We don’t need all that animal protein when you’ve served a cricket-powder protein smoothie? Right?
You just keep those cricket-powder smoothies on the Left Coast now, Kenji!!! Ewwww….
Don’t worry – I will send you steaks from the Midwest – as long as we get to keep our cows.
Send me a nice ribeye to wash-away the cricket aftertaste! Yeccchhh
I’ll promise a ribeye of you step away from the crickets!!!

Love the flowers – thank you Jay 1776. Looks a little like my Heaven in my dreams. Vibrant like this but aromatic.
that sandwich looks good am or pm Jay 1776
Them !! Thank you for the GREAT music so early in the morning, Jay !!!
LOVE this version of “Mystic Eyes”, by the late great Tom Petty and his Heartbreakers…
And for real classic rock fans, this version of “Baby Please Don’t Go”, by AC/DC, with original singer-frontman Bon Scott….
🇺🇸😎🇺🇸
^^^
Coolio. But then there’s this (with that song included)…
♥️
🇺🇸😎🇺🇸
yes! what ed said ..
happy valentine’s day jay ♥️

Great song….thanks annie !! And thanks for “Ride On”….maybe AC/DC’s mellowest song. And as for “Gloria”, here’s the ‘other’ Morrison’s version….
A couple more versions… although the first is a different song by the same name
Right there, the second one. John Lee and anybody is always great.

God morning mr. jay and keep up the fine work. Music is life.
4th title made me think of Alvin Lee (Ten Years After).

Well … if you’re gonna “sample” something … “sample” something brilliant. My musical genius boy, Beck did just that …
Beck always deserves a double-play
And just for Miss.Della … who embraced the Burro yesterday … I offer Beck’s “Mexican” Jackass … Burro. So important a tune … it had to be done in heespanick as well.
😂😂
Delightful, catchy tune!
(The Burro?? Forgive the naivety.)
Morning Garrison!
For Ad rem. Looks like my Siccas Guitar concert video has gone walkabout again. Don’t know why it didn’t appear. I tested it and the link worked but now I can’t see it. If you can find it for me I’d appreciate it if you would post it for me. Thanks. 🙂
Garrison, 🙁 🙁 🙁 I found all four comments in the bin. This is the third day your morning stuff has been getting trashed. You and your info are not on the blocklist, but for some reason, you are being sent to the bin automatically. I’ll keep trying to find the reason….I can’t find any close matches….???
ETA….This is ONLY happening to your early morning posts, right? I’m not seeing you pop up later in the day. Hmmmm…..
For several days I haven’t been around much in the mornings or afternoon—chronic fatigue I’m afraid. I’ll make a point of test posting more during the day. I’ll also keep posting guitar concerts at the usual time. Watch this space, please. . . 🙂
…and I’ll make a point of checking the “bin” every hour or so. Happy Valentine’s Day! 😘
Good evening, Garrison. Blessings and happy Valentine’s day. Saved a chair on the porch for you. Bustelo is brewing.
Major gas line in Iran is exploded. Probably Mossad.
Wow….what a shame. /s
Nope. 2nd try also failed. The link appeared to transfer, the performance started to play, but when I stopped the performance and tried to start over, it had disappeared.
And reported here 2-5 hours before any online news source releases. 😎

Oh, Annie, so gorgeous!
Longing – deeply – to be there.
Here’s pic I took in PCB, April 2018, 6:40 am.
Moon sinking into the ocean.
Something about this time of year has me dreaming of the coast and the carefree bits of time spent there.
Last years time with the grands was a never to be repeated moment. I would dearly love to fire up the engine and head to Florida right now but duty to family and self first.
Awww, you’re a good man, Monti.
Reminds me the word JOY:
Jesus first (J)
Others second (O)
Yourself third (Y)
I do hope you can repeat that time with your grands!
🙏🏻
🥰😢
beautiful! surely you have that framed ♥️
((((( della )))))
The Gulf coast beaches offer spectacular scenery, as surely you know, Annie!
Photo you posted with too many stars to count is hard to wrap my mind around!
I just love to watch it all – in awe and wonder – of our Creator God …
Nothing more exciting and peaceful to me!
(((Annie)))
Hope this means ‘hugs’ to you, 🥰
There are women and women, and some hold you tight
While some leave you counting the stars in the night
love the mood of that song.. it’s my first time listening to it.
💘 happy valentine’s day 💘 kenji
With the exception of Madman Across the Water … my favorite … most musical … most poetic work by EJ and BT
Hope you get a nice Valentines squeeze from your loved one.🥰🩷😍
It’s probably a guy thing … but the last two stanzas (and story leading up to it) I printed are so true … so poignant. You girls don’t know what you do to a man’s soul.
And I suppose this is the right day for the “big hit” from Tumbleweed Connection that we all know … one of the first tunes I learned to play on guitar … at summer camp. Which was sorta like Band Camp … as I cemented my relationship with my first wife there … while we we just youngsters … didn’t last long … and the end of that relationship is still the greatest shock of my life as it came out of left field … totally blindsided. Oh well ,,, I’m working on 40+ years of marriage now …
Speaking of Madman Across the Water … that tune was originally recorded for Tumbleweed Connection (this version later released – posted here) … but was held and remixed with a different guitarist/feel … more foreboding in mood. Alright. I’m done with EJ and TC … but I don’t really like ANYTHING EJ/BT released past Yellow Brick Road. Like so many Artists … their first works are the best.
beautiful Gods handiwork surrounds all of us. Thank you dreamboat Annie
WW III, day 1,116. The US Senate, run by the D party with the aid of a bunch of RINOs, passed an anti-Constitutional “bill” that would limit a future president’s actions to dismantle what they are illegally trying to create. We are at war, but still so many refuse to see…

Thanks. Read through his materials, and learned a lot. Sadly he confirmed what I had observed — I was totally healthy for 60 years until I had a root canal and dental surgery. His references confirm the obvious — glad to know it was not just me … I guess.
Having had the snoot spray for more than a week now, it has made a major difference to clear out my sinuses.
With time I hope my sinuses heal up so it will be permanently better, it is not nearly as clear as a ear nose & throat dr spraying out my sinuses but that only lasts about 2 weeks before going back to what it was.
Perhaps once my sinuses have cleared & healed ill try hitting the deeper sinuses with Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride.
Historically, my sinuses are way worse after using OH as you can only use it for about 3 days as it is “addictive”.

Difficult start in life -especially @:39… good grief! left me with a heavy heart. God bless him.
My two earliest memories:
sorry for your trauma, but +1 on the Studebaker Commander
My parents simply taught me that … people are flawed. And ultimately need God’s salvation. My parents were probably a poor match … my father was an alcoholic with emotional problems … my mother was simply weak and needy. Would I have preferred something different. Of course. But God has inspired me to NEVER consider myself a victim, and to move on from the trauma experienced.
and yeah … that Commander was BOSS! In the dawn of the Space Age, when we sat in our jammies at 6am PST to watch Mercury and Gemini launches … and it was pretty cool to launch ourselves to the grocery store each weekend! See .. I remember that rocket-nosed car just as vividly as my parents fighting. It’s all good.
Sorry to hear this Kenji. You bring a lot of bold color to this black and white board and are a blessing.
The Grunts Prayer
Oh Lord, thank you for granting me another day to stand up against the tyranny in the world today, blessing me with the will, strength and fortitude to continue walking, digging and fighting all over this once blessed United States of America. Please continue to help me carry this rucksack and weapon by walking beside me and lending your loving hand apon this yoke I proudly wear. Please bless me with a full ammo pouch and full canteen, one for the enemy around me the other for the enemy above, so that I may prevail against one and endure the other. Please bless me with the light of the moon and stars when I need them and clouds and rain when I desire cover from my enemies eyes. Please ensure my aim is true, that my creedo “One Shot, One Kill” is fullfilled, that my enemy does not suffer and their end is swift and complete. Please Lord, protect me from short rounds and friendly fire from my allies, so that I might continue to honor my oath to the Constitution of the United States of America. Last of all Lord please forgive me for what I must do, I only wished to be left alone, bask in the glory of your word and behold this beautiful world that you created for us but alas Evil has risen and I am compelled to smite it in your name.
Amen 🙏🏻
Good morning, DG and Miss Trouble

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It’s always love between Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid and tight end Travis Kelce.
Feb 12, 2024
-snipped-
“They’re passionate players man, and I love that,” Reid said about Kelce, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and defensive tackle Chris Jones.
“Even if they chest bump me to the other side of the 50, I appreciate it. I just love that the guy wants to play and wants to be in there playing. And he knows I love that. So he makes me feel young.”

THE DISCIPLINE OF HEEDING
“What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.” Matt. x. 27
At times God puts us through the discipline of darkness to teach us to heed Him. Song birds are taught to sing in the dark, and we are put into the shadow of God’s hand until we learn to hear Him. “What I tell you in darkness” – watch where God puts you into darkness, and when you are there keep your mouth shut. Are you in the dark just now in your circumstances, or in your life with God? Then remain quiet. If you open your mouth in the dark, you will talk in the wrong mood: darkness is the time to listen. Don’t talk to other people about it; don’t read books to find out the reason of the darkness, but listen and heed. If you talk to other people, you cannot hear what God is saying. When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message for someone else when you get into the light.
After every time of darkness there comes a mixture of delight and humiliation (if there is delight only, I question whether we have heard God at all), delight in hearing God speak, but chiefly humiliation – What a long time I was in hearing that! How slow I have been in understanding that! And yet God has been saying it all these days and weeks. Now He give you the gift of humiliation which brings the softness of heart that will always listen to God NOW.

My Val. Day selection 🥰🩷😍
One of the prettiest and most forlorn songs I’ve ever heard. The Alan Parsons Project, live in concert from Columbia 2013, complete with a magnificent full orchestral arrangement.
Song entitled…..”Time.”
Beautiful!!!
Such a dilemma for me … as Alan Parsons is coming to Oakland (Paramount Theatre) in March. BART is out of the question, and I wouldn’t dare park my “third” car in downtown Oakland on a bet. And … I last saw Alan Parsons play in Yoshi’s Jazz club in Jack London Sq. 10 ft. from the stage … and one of the very BEST live music experiences of my life. So, do I want to risk tarnishing that memory as happened when Steely Dan put on just a few too many mailed-in performances and kinda soured me on their live shows.
And BTW … the bald bass player you see in this video? Yeah … he and I had “a moment” at Yoshi’s … actually the entire concert, as he saw I knew their entire catalog and was (as I always am) … very “into” their performance. Artists do appreciate audience response.
So do I risk being let down? Pay for an extra $90.00 in Uber fees? And go see them again … or just savor my memories?
Sorry … Fox Theatre … just as ghetto
Hum … I want/need to be in Vegas for the Pizza Expo this year … been putting it off for …. well … 12 years anyway was planning on going in 2020 but Wuflu … hard time to be closed when it is prime time spring break tourism to fill coffers to make it to July 1.
I see they have a Reno date ~450 miles away around that time, have never seen them … need to study the dates deeper, see if it fits.
Good luck!
One of my favs, he does a good job replacing Eric Wolfson’s vocals on this, never attempted this yet for karaoke, not sure I can hit the highs & I hate to change pitchs as it kinda screws up the music, but did start doing Old and Wise within the last year tho.

Love
The Eleventh Commandment.
I have been purposefully quiet. Introspect. Dealing with a few things, as we all are.
We all stare in awe over the calamity over our land. Disbelief. Wondering if we can shake awake and throw off the tyranny which has overcome our children in their schools, our representatives in our government, and the flagrant abuse of the laws of our land. We stand wondering about our future… and our children’s.
God brought this to my mind today from Ezekial. If He can do this (and He Did!), can He not do this for us, as well (and He Will!)?
It is a reminder that there is nothing too plundered, nothing too destroyed, nothing too dead – that God cannot resurrect in His Good Timing and for His Glory. Case in point in modern American times, Mount St. Helens was reduced to rubble 44 years ago, and yet in its condition today… Spirit Lake rests 1,000 feet higher in elevation, and the earth blooms beauty… and life is restored there.
Can He not do the same for us? Can we TRUST HIM FULLY to do so?
We are but dry bones awaiting restoration. Lord, renew us, reassemble us, and breathe new life into our country and our people. Restore in us a vibrant and joy-filled dedication to You and an eternal devotion to live as You would have us live and to lead, as You would have us lead. You are the Alpha and the Omega… the Beginning and the End. World without end. World without end. World without end. We trust You fully with our lives and all that we hold dear.
Come, Lord Jesus, come! In Jesus’s Holy and Saving Name, AMEN
Ezekiel 37 New International Version
The Valley of Dry Bones
37 The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”
I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.”
4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! 5 This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath[a] enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.
9 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.
11 Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’”
Was just thinking about Ezekial 37 yesterday.
That is no such thing as coincidence, dear ProperWolf. That’s called Spiritual affirmation.
*There – sorry. Brain is low on oxygen today and one can tell in my typing.
Beautiful, Woo.
Deep meditation strengthens the soul.
Be blessed, dear one.
And, amen!
Amen, Sister Della, Amen. Happy Valentines Day to you, your hubs, and family. And to all my Valentine treepers here. May be a corny holiday, but another opportunity to share affection… what’s not to love?
Blessings
And back to you, Woo!
Truthfully, we’ve outgrown the “holiday.”
When hubs and I first met, sparks were flying. 😁
Now? We show love in other ways.
Namely, I’ve been ill for ten days with some pneumonia, and hubs has done “everything” for me.
It’s very humbling to be helpless and have someone wait on you.
I’m asking the Lord to heal me so I can help hubs in his time of need.
This, to me, is real love.
When they see you at your worst – and give you their best!
Not whining here about me.
Everyone is fighting something.
Just describing a perfect example of LOVE.💕
Hang in there, Woo!
Sorry to hear you’re fighting Pneumonia, Della. Hope you get plenty of rest and feel right as rain soon. there’s a nasty flu going on around here, as well. I’m dodging it – thus far.
Blessings on your hubs for being such a good man to care for you. We’ve got some golden ones on this thread… true gentlemen who are excellent examples of chivalry.
Give your hubs a hug for me and thank him from me for taking such good care of you.
I can still enjoy the thought behind the holiday – whether or not I truly partake in it. Never enough days to say “I love you”. Best to not let the cretins destroy everything.
You’re so sweet, Woo.
Hubs is a treasure. Always steps up to the plate. At home or for kids/grands.
For anyone that needs a helping hand.
There are some very good men out there, Woo.
(never settle for less)
Please take care of yourself, too.
PS: Probably shouldn’t say it, but there are some nasty viruses now, and wonder if illegals brought them. Makes me so angry.
I love you, Woo. 🥰🙏🏻
I love you, too, Della.
I did receive some answers medically, so I’m watching things very carefully. I have had Hypothyroidism since Savannah was 2 years old – from my pregnancy with her. I thought I had Hashimoto’s at the time, but no one formally diagnosed me. It just “made sense” because of my symptoms at the time.
Now – for sure – I do, indeed, have Hashimoto’s auto-immune and the Hypothyroidism that stems from it. I also tested positive for MTHFR genetic mutation, which means that I can’t absorb vitamins as normal people do, unless they are Methylated.
I was terribly dehydrated, despite drinking tons of water – I was low on electrolytes – so that is getting remedied.
And then, there’s my heart. My ticker just works way harder than most and I giggle to myself because it makes total sense… to me. I have stage 2 hypertension. When you go to bed at night, your heart slows down to a resting pace. Mine no longer does. It is as active and beats through the night, as one who is full on awake. Then, my daytime rate is excessively and persistently higher than 140/90. I am 100% certain this is Covid related because I have very routine benchmark checks – and formerly low blood pressure – so I am certain something happened with my immunity to cause the changes. The pain from the hip will also cause heart rates to go up – mine went up 30 points top and bottom – after the car accident. So maybe when the hip gets replaced, some relief will come.
I am on the DASH diet but having to exclude cruciferous veggies because they trash my thyroid. Funny, the good things for you, I can’t have. I especially will miss tomatoes. Bye bye nice farmer who entertained me in the summer and provided me with yummy nightshade veggies.
Praise GOD through Whom all blessings flow!
Can you imagine if I would have stayed with that horrid doctor who didn’t believe in vitamins, cared not one wit about inflammation, and tried to put me on statins when my CT scan came back with 0% calcification? He would have allowed me to die.
Functional medicine, friend. My new direct pay functional medicine practitioner is on the case and she’s real animated and aggressive. I’m now on three prescriptions and take over 20 pills a day for various vitamin mineral deficiencies. The scripts are for long-Covid symptoms, my thyroid, and now a water pill to give my heart a break and shed this water.
We have a bit of a way ahead of us, but I have faith we are on the right track.
Can you imagine taking vitamins thinking it was healthy practice only to learn my body wouldn’t metabolize or ingest them as I should?
Dealing with these realities, pressures at work, pressures with kid’s craptastic school – I am shaking off the noise and denying it access.
When Savannah was little, she was enrolled in AWANA (which, along with Upwards Sports, I highly highly recommend for our kids). One day she came home from AWANA with a construction paper sign on a string around her neck reading “DOES NOT GET ENTANGLED”. It has become a mantra for us – and truly – along with frequent recalibrations – it has kept me sane.
We’ve got one more year of “devil” school left and I can very honestly say that it is fun to not give them any power over our mind and our Spirits. I truly do not care one wit about how much they try to trip us, or strip us, of her education or sanity. They will never, ever succeed.
We measure success by God’s measurement of success – not by human misguided opinions.
As for “settling” for any man – well, I’m of the opinion that if one can’t walk with us through the hard times, then he doesn’t deserve me during my good times. “Does not get entangled”
I pray we all can right the course. However, I will TRUST GOD as to what that direction is and I will stand in the devil’s way and call him out and push him down every chance I get. When God Is all you’ve got, you need nothing else, and you don’t worry about losing… because God never loses.
So glad you’ve gotten some answers, Woo, including a new direction for help.
Seems like a lot at once, but baby steps and one day at a time, I suppose.
Nothing happens in a hurry, you know.
Will be praying for you, Woo.

I had the same problem with Doctors. I too have a functional Doctor. The transformation has been amazing. You might want to ask them about a new study using nicotine patches to treat COVID. I am starting on it Monday.
Been there lol, literally. Not quite THAT much layered on, but close.
All it’s missing is a little mouse poop. 🙂
Ohhhh Slowcobra!!! Ewwwww…. lol.
I had to giggle – my computer gets a frequent wipe down (and not the Hillary kind “with a cloth?”) I’m certain I’ve got enough for a critter nest inside of it, but I’m not a braniac with computers to take it apart and give it a proper cleaning. For now it keeps on ticking.
Just took both of my “front office” computers outside and used the electric leaf blower on them (neither have covers on them as the “front office” stays at over 80 degrees even in the winter with a swamp (evaporative) cooler going as a 625 degree pizza oven sheds alot of heat.
You could probably get by with a hair dryer on air dry if it has one or low heat with highest speed, definitely blow out the power supply fan if you cannot get a cover off to blow off the fan that is on the CPU.
Heat is the #1 culprit to damage a computer, and dust is a great insulation.
There is also <canned air> , rather expensive tho.
Most covers come off either with 2 thumb screws in the back or with just a “car door” kinda catch somewhere on the (usually left side) of the case and slides off the back in key-ways. There might be a fan on that cover watch for wires for it.
Edit: would recommend doing any air cleaning outdoors or in garage area too.
Thanks for the pro tip, Bruce.
My luck… my version of maintenance will cause it to stop working. Lol

This was made by a friend, NC transplant from just up the road, who is a giant in mind and heart. The description is an entire history lesson. She says she didn’t include the Cherokee words onscreen because the small variations she found made her hesitant (perfectionist she is). But links for lyrics, syllabics, translation, credits, etc are in the description.
ooohhh Proper Wolf I fell in love with Cherokee Morning Song years ago when I
purchased that CD WALELA, with Rita Coolidge. Absolute pleasure to hear it at this
moment. Thank you
Yeah Rita Coolidge with her sister and niece. I’ll check out that “Morning” song too, thanks for the tip!
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
~ Ephesians 6:12
Truth, Proper!
We just need open eyes to see.
👀🙏🏻
Thanks Miss Della. That verse lives in my head these days.
Me too!
Let’s not forget it, Proper.
and they are defeated, puny little foes and should… by the spoken Word of God… flee in obedience!
And in my favorite interpretation of how we should treat such cretins… I offer some wisdom from the Incredible Hulk (not Mark Garafalo the liberal asinine actor – but the Hulk himself in how we should view these “gods” of their own making)
Ha ha, yes I have hypertension and maybe it is my new superpower! LOL

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.
BE MY VOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
ONE DAY, SOMEDAY
Have you been abandoned and left alone
Is the pain so unbearable you’re thrown
It comes not from the body or the head
It comes spiritually inside instead
One day, someday you’ll discover that He
Will reveal more than imagined to be
Quit waiting for man to make it alright
Quit sitting on your bum get in the fight
Armor up daily and please pray pray pray
There really is no other possible way
We fight an enemy fierce and unseen
An enemy in plain sight ever been
Blind to the peril under which we survive
Unable to progress or even thrive
Twas not what God wanted or even planned
This surreptitious slavery under man
Some have claimed God could really care less
Despite her gifts ‘Merica is a mess
Look at what we accepted without a peep
How did we manage to get in so deep
The web the enemy cleverly weaved
Has cause devastation so bereaved
We’ve lost what we valued so dear to our hearts
Broken to pieces and left without parts
When will God move as He promised of old
When will He free us from bondage foretold
When will the fruits of the wicked be torn
When will our nation be no more forlorn
Someday soon you will see His Almighty Hand
Spread worldwide over the sky sea and land
The Trumpet will sound everyone will hear
There’ll be joy everywhere not a single tear

This past year, I’ve lost my sweet tooth, and not tempted by rich desserts;
However, these look good – and are somewhat healthy.
Thinking of Kenji, and all of you, who need a little treat:

Since it’s Valentine’s Day, here is the real meaning of love:
“This is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the payment for our sins.” 1 John 4:10
(From “God’s Word Translation” via Bible hub dot com.)
I don’t use this version, but it helps others understand.
Words like propitiation and atonement can be foreign to some.

Thank you for this good picture, Patience!
Know a few people I can send it to – those who don’t like hearts and flowers.
This is perfect!
May God’s love cover you wherever you go …

ok, WTF
So I wake up this morning to a TV news banner “Major Threat from Russia”
And then I see that FBI Director Christopher Wray is in Israel “helping the Israelis”
Not for nothing, but I gotta believe Wray is there to monkeywrench the Israelis
Anyone?
My brilliant two cents, nim …
Lunatics are running the asylum.
Seriously.
remember Nimrod nothing is as it seems and running along the side is God’s timing. Blessings

https://thefederalist.com/2024/02/14/why-jimmy-kimmels-jokes-about-christian-super-bowl-ads-are-weak-and-ignorant/
Those are not ‘jokes’ there is nothing funny about them, they are sneers. Kimmel pathetically wants to be accepted by the ‘entertainment’ industry. Imagine being that desperate for approbation.
“Despite offering personally manageable solutions to the things ripping our civilization asunder, Christianity remains public enemy No. 1. Unless Christians are willing to forsake their beliefs, they are not embraced in society. This isn’t new. The world has long hated Christ and His followers and sought to restrict the Truth — this is even discussed in the Gospel.”
“Cultural figures like Kimmel, however, will continue to profess commitment to the faith while openly blaspheming and leading people astray. To people like them, Christianity is little more than a label invoked to condescend to other people and something used to justify hedonistic lifestyles.”
https://thefederalist.com/2024/02/13/report-cia-started-russia-collusion-hoax-by-asking-foreign-governments-to-spy-on-trump-campaign/
“The CIA ‘illegally mobilized foreign intelligence agencies to target Trump advisors long before the summer of 2016.’”
“The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) set off the Russian collusion hoax in 2016 when U.S. intelligence officials recruited foreign governments to spy on Democrats’ American political opponents. On Tuesday, Substack publications Public and Racket revealed new details about the origins of the Spygate hoax the U.S. federal government perpetrated on the Donald Trump presidential campaign.”
“Sources say U.S. intelligence agencies ‘illegally mobilized foreign intelligence agencies to target Trump advisors long before the summer of 2016.’”
…”President Barack Obama’s CIA Director, John Brennan, had identified 26 Trump associates for the Five Eyes to target, …”
” the Five Eyes nations being the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.”
“It seems unlikely there will be anything in writing to establish John Brennan or another member of the U.S. Intelligence Community solicited assistance from the other members of Five Eyes. Nonetheless, Americans deserve to know what was in that 10-inch binder and which foreign intelligence services interfered in our 2016 election by “bumping” members of the Trump campaign to craft the Russia hoax.
The now-known significance of that binder also raises the specter that the search of Mar-a-Lago wasn’t to protect classified materials but to protect intelligence agencies — American and foreign. “
Has anybody given the date of this request?
It would be great to place this in the timeline of events.
One of the wierd things I have noticed is that the contact with Papadopoulos started prior to the announcement that he was part foreign policy advice group.
Amen
Amen.
