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 †

“Former UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman sounded an ominous warning on Friday: “The Islamists, the extremists and the anti-Semites are in charge now.” “
“Braverman made her chilling statement after events on Wednesday in London, when members of the British Parliament debated motions calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
A vote for a ceasefire is really a vote for Hamas, for if Israel stopped fighting, Hamas would escape annihilation and survive to murder more Israeli civilians on another day.
As the debates went on, pro-Hamas protesters projected the phrase “From the River to the Sea,” which is a veiled call for the total destruction of Israel, something that would almost certainly involve a new genocide of the Jews, onto Big Ben.
This was widely seen as a veiled threat to the members of parliament, and with very good reason.
Konstantin Kisin noted in The Free Press on Friday that the parliamentarians certainly felt threatened. Their fears led to a change in the established rules of the Parliament, so that members of the leftist Labour party could escape having to vote for an anti-Israel measure that even many of them thought was too extreme, or…….. voting against it and risking the wrath of the Muslim protesters outside the parliament building.” (The latter choice would be their real choice, They have no morals or ethics.)
“So are the Islamists, the extremists and the anti-Semites really in charge now in Britain? Certainly. The question now is this: what, if anything, are Britain’s ostensible authorities going to do about it?”

She was Home Secretary, jb. She did squat to stop the Muslim invasion. She was an “authority ” once.
Yes, those groups are in charge. “Conservatives” have overseen the escalation. Britain can’t unring that bell.
I’m as DONE with the Tories as I am with the GOPe. Unprincipled appeasers.
They are all globalists now, Kenji.
Labour, which will be worse, are poised to take power.
Yes, Betsy, it’s absolutely sickening!
The Conservative Party is not a bit Conservative. It’s only for the shadowy elites. The Labour Party hasn’t given a damn about the working class in decades, and they had the nerve to stand against the people’s wishes for quick decisive Brexit. They also seem to be returning to their appalling anti-semitic viewpoint.
The Liberals have never stood for anything anyway and are useless twits.
The W.E.F. seems to be taking over the Western World.
The so-called elected representatives of most of the Western nations seem to simply ignore the people who voted for them and keep pushing the W.E.F/N.W O/E.U and U.N. nonsense.
A vigorous Real alternative new party with a Freedom Platform is needed, however I hate to say it, but I am beginning to think it is too late. So many people in the U.K. seem to have lost their fighting spirit and seem to be fine with our Western society turning into a regimented brainwashed horror like ‘1984’. There are a few fighters but not enough.
“Could this happen in the U.S.?
What groups of people are coming in at the Southern Border. President Trump has been talking about this problem.”
“LONDON — Since October 7, there have been many dark days here in London. Every Saturday the streets are filled with demonstrators calling for the end of the state of Israel, several Jewish schools have had to close due to safety concerns, and the number of antisemitic incidents has gone through the roof.
I have attended and documented a number of these protests, which on occasion have descended into violence, confrontations with police, antisemitic chanting, and even calls for jihad.
All bad, you might be thinking. And you’d be right. But they pale in comparison to what happened this past Wednesday, when the British Parliament, which has been around for 800 years, capitulated to fear of Islamist violence.
While the details of parliamentary proceedings in the UK will likely seem arcane and convoluted, especially to the American reader, bear with me for a paragraph or two because it’s important to understand why what just happened is so outrageous.”

Farage for us, sis. Of course he has to be elected first. Or Laurence Fox…no chance for him alas.
We are just glad that the Queen did not live to see the collapse which has occurred since she died.
I’m afraid it is too late for Britain. That this is happening under the party of Margaret Thatcher as it once solidly was is criminal.
So true, Margaret Thatcher would have been horrified had she lived to se this.

Wonderful. I am sure that will be very uplifting and passionately -felt prayer.
I already pray for President Trump, and the other brave souls standing for truth and justice, and Israel’s soldiers , and for he Shalom of Jerusalem, and for persecuted Christians around the world, and for unjustly imprisoned political prisoners. Also my homeland what’s left of it, and Canada which needs a decent, intelligent and non-Globalist leader.
Let us all pray for these urgent international matters as well as our own personal needs, and thank God for what He is doing.
LOL
Oooooooooooooo!!!!
😍 😍 😍 😍 😍
Afternoon dear Bet! I’m not showing that one to Elizabeth or I’ll get homework assignment. 🙂 <3
Hahahaha!!!! I was a-feared of that, G. Discretion is the better part of valour. So glad to ya be got some. LOL!!!!
Beautiful.
I will bet, however, that the owners will never throw a stone…..
Obviously no children, GB 😎
Now, “stones” from the heavens??
The minute I heard rain, I’d be a leeeeeetle nervous 😬😉
😆
😁 👍🏻 😎 💕
I know this one!!!! 💕
My grandfather literally EMBEDDED the dollar bill in my hand. Hey! That was BIG MONEY in 1965
Folding money!! 😍👍🏻
Nope, never on the receiving end of that.
Nor I, Slowcobra…but then mine were scattered across the country and I never saw them. We’ve done that for ours though….such a good feeling 😌💕
It must be an international handshake, mine usually included a florin, or a shilling, but mostly half a crown. Also a finger to the lips, meaning don’t tell your mom!
Half a crown! 2s/6d!! A fortune! 🌟
“It’s OUR secret!!” 💕
Yes it was! 🙂
Oh yes. God bless Grandparents…..for everything they gave us with love, both material AND spiritual.
Yes oh yes, dear friend…I never really knew mine because of distance. But I imagined what they would be like if I could see them.
And I have endeavoured to be that grandparent for my grandchildren 💕
That’s a bit sad but I do understand. I only knew my paternal grandparents since my maternal grandfather died when my mother was only 4, and maternal grandmother died 3 mos. before my parent’s wedding.
I would have loved to meet my 4’10” flaming redhead maternal grandmother; I saw a photo of her standing next to her 1922 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, wearing riding pants, a leather jacket, and goggles shoved up on her forehead. Story goes that my mom’s stepfather convinced her mother to stop riding after she survived an accident uninjured; having missed a curve and gone through a billboard. I want to meet THAT woman if I make it past the Pearly Gates…. 😁
If? IF??
Oh you’ll meet her, dear sir. Of this I have no doubts 😌🕊
Such a good story. She was lucky…or, more likely, her guardian angel was on duty. Your presence here, right now, at this moment was know by God long before you were born. Of COURSE, she escaped injury…I’m so glad 😘🤗
My own surgeon dad saw enough closed head injuries and deaths from motorcycle accidents that he threatened me within an inch of my life if I ever got on one…
When I was at university far from home, a date picked me up riding one. So swallowing hard, I put on the too big helmet which kept falling down over my eyes, got on his bike, and clung on for dear life…my dad’s voice in my ear all the way to the restaurant he took me.
MY guardian angel was on duty then, too! 😁
Thank the Lord you survived the ride!
I rode several bikes in my 20s and early 30s. Dumped one in ’82 on a concrete road sharp curve unexpectedly strewn with loose gravel (at low speed thank goodness) and rearranged my right shoulder blade in the process (no cast, but 5 req’d. weeks of PT). Fixed the bike and kept riding for a few more years until it became apparent that 4-wheel vehicle drivers had become far too dangerous to drive among.
OUCH!!!! One of the perils.
Chris walked his first one home when he was 15 hoping that a British bobby wouldn’t stop him. Took it apart and put it back together under the watchful eye of his knowledgeable father three times. Ready to go for when he passed his test at 16.
Guys and bikes…..like ducks and water 😁
The only simile I could think of 😂💕
Yep. I love riding a motorcycle but I’m not a daredevil. Had a good teacher – a close friend whose two older brothers both rode and taught him.
Oh, Betsy, stop!
That is so funny!!!
😂
I have saved those for AGES, Lorrie!!!
Figured we could all use some laughter, girl 😂😘
You make me smile!
That makes my heart sing, dear sis. Thank you for that beautiful gift 🤗😘
Another one is, pass the ‘Wot’s this ‘ere sauce’ 🙂
HAHAHAHA!!!!!
Lol, “are you having a stroke”
I KNOW!!!!!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have decided after nearly 34 years of marriage that when she does ^ that……I’m just gonna take her at her word as if she meant it.
We both will know it’s not true, and when she tries to make something of it later on, I’ll simply remind her of her own words.
Say what you mean, mean what you say. I’ve preached it for nearly 34 years.
Ladies of the treehouse, I’m open to any criticism you may offer on this.
Perhaps you know a more effective way to deal with it.
It’s a fool who doesn’t learn from experience, dear Greg..
And you, sir…ARE NO FOOL!!
But a bit of the asked for advice you asked for…
Sometimes saying nothing says the most.
Reminding someone, especially a woman, of one’s own words is tantamount to opening a can of worms which is best left unopened.
By the way…that advice works well for either party.
Love ya, my friend 💕
This^^ Say nothing and my experience has been that round falls away.
Disappears as though it never started. I feel like a winner!
Yet, I know better. A d the battle of the sexes continues for another day.
Forever more, Phflipper 👍🏻
And yes…you are that 😊
Although, Betsy, I must confess. Sometimes I am just ornery enough to entertain that which I know is not “nothing.”
I just cannot help myself. Like a moth to the flame I go there.
And, I lose. Every time. Losing can be that much fun.
Is there something wrong with me?
I’m married to your doppelganger, my friend.
No….no, nothing in this world wrong with you.
You’ve spoken of your devotion for your bride before so lovingly…
As I said, I married your doppelganger 💕
Solid advice…….for both parties.
Thanks for the dose of wisdom, Betsy!
And love ya right back!
🤗 😘
Oh….and this!!!!
I see you’ve used “^”…
That is called a ” SARCASTROPHE”!!!
To be liberally used to impress friends, family, or those who may not be quite sure if you are being sarcastic….or not 😁 😎
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I LOVE it!
And yet ANOTHER good meme to snag for future use, thanks Betsy!
Welcome!! 😎
It’s because you’re supposed to already know what’s wrong……… (via ESP, I long ago concluded) 🙃
I learned long ago that the “universal apology” doesn’t work – “Honey, whatever’s wrong, it’s my fault and I’m sorry.”
I repeat, do NOT try that…it’s a TRAP. You will be interrogated as to what YOU think is wrong.. .to which there is no correct answer (which should’ve been obvious since you resorted to using the universal apology…). 😎
LOLOLOLOL!!!! The voice of experience it seems…
Uhhhh yup. 🙄
Went down in flames.
Learned the hard way.
🤨
You were supposed to listen, that’s all just listen. It MUST be talked about to be put behind and even though us guys are left far, far behind and wondering what its all about…..if you just attend by listening then almost miraculously it’s all better and “IT” goes away.
Don’t offer logic, don’t try to “fix it” which us guys are absolutely bound to do……just attend and gradually its all better. Because listening is caring and sometimes none of us know what is wrong. Aren’t we so sadly human after all?
👍.
So, you learned too!
😁😁
That’s correct.
It ain’t a BIT logical, and it only goes ONE way, but it’s correct.
Lessons learned the hard way tend to stick….ask me how I know…
On second thought…
😁
in my case I have an excuse (at least in my opinion…)
I’m a Capricorn. My mom was a Capricorn. My Dad was a Capricorn. Our b-days are all within 2 weeks of each other.
But I married a Scorpio……..
Been there, done that, still got scars from the bear traps!!!
Yes….
My students just roll me (in my chair) out of the way and fix anything I mess up on all my LFDs and computers. When I’m up bopping around — they’re on my turf. When I am using electronics– I’m on their turf.
We co-learn!!!
Same….with my children anyway. I’m useless. Tech has passed me by…totally!!!!!
But yes! We are all learning every day from others 👍🏻
Yessss and double yessss!!
I think I might be able to top you lorrie (although that was not my intent!).
what is an LFD????!!!?!?
Big ole computerized kinda smart tv screen. I can use it as a computer by itself for my kids to watch videos, or interact with different programs, games, etc.– or I can project stuff off my desktop computer for my kids to see. I have two of them. Some teachers have four — so kids anywhere in the room can see them.
OMG…..that – is- priceless! 🤣🤣🤣 (Betsy, you’ve been on a roll for the past several days!)
You should see my library, sis!! 😂😂😂
Someone always provides an opening for me to share the ones I’ve stol…er…purloined (a much nicer word, doncha think?? 😉😎💕)
Seeeeee????
Betsy took her “nuttier than nuts” pills today. Really made me laugh! I needed it.
The real me, I hate to tell you, Lorrie. I figured it was safe to come out now 😁👍🏻
(All three of mine are just like me 😉)
👍♥️
😘
I mean this, Lorrie 💕………
One of your best Betsy… love it…🤣🤣👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
There are some awfully clever and funny meme-sters out there, Jim. I just promote their creations, and take a great deal of pleasure in dong so 😁👍🏻😘
We see it and marvel…
But to actually think about the work which went into carving it??
I remember seeing a 16mm movie documentary in elementary school about the construction of Mount Rushmore. But it was MORE exciting when my father took me to see “North By Northwest” in 1959 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. How cool to watch Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint crawling down over Jefferson’s and Lincoln’s faces…..
Loves that movie!!! I know the scene well. Always made my heart jump into my throat…gulp!!
👍 Seriously intense. But tame by today’s standards!
Yes…but clean and gripping.
Oh yes. As were all top rated movie mysteries from the ’50s. Especially the Albert Hitchcock mysteries from that decade (and the ’40s, I must admit).
Psychedelic Soul! Bet you didn’t know there was such a thing? Luv and Haight, brotha’s and sistah’s … right here y’all in my backyard. And remember … it’s ALWAYS a Family Affair … so nuzzle up to your family and give each other all your LUV!
And here’s an 8 yo Sly Stone … singing for the Lord! Yep, started in The Church. Cause it’s Sunday .. a beautiful gloriously bright sunny day here in N.CAL
What a sweet post, dear Kenji 💕 Most of mine are so far away….sigh…
But I send them more hugs and loving than they can imagine through my prayers. I have an Intermediary 🙏🏻 who hears me and watches over them all. This I know with my whole heart.
How is Miya? How are her parents coping with sleepless nights?? Tell all!!! 😎
yes, bet. miya is such a beauty. we need updates!
I almost asked him if she’s in high school yet, linwik 😂 You know how fast they grow!! No pause button either.
Plenty of mental cocktails to be made. To be drunk much later when they’ve grown and left the nest 😘
Betsy you missed my snaps of last Monday’s visit. 🙁Miya’s doin what all of God’s beautiful infants do … grow and grow. The parents complain about their new lifestyle … but they LOVE IT … and will be a superb mom and dad. Miya already “looks smart” to me. Well, after all she DOES look decidedly Asian 😂😘🥰🥰🥰🥰 … and Euro-mutt … got some of my boy’s DNA in there too. Miya’s all mixed up … all mixed up. And beautiful!
https://imgur.com/undefined
Oh MYYYY!!!! 😍
Is it the photo, or is she a long baby?
Those eyes!!! It looks like she has spotted something of interest 💕 Perhaps her guardian angel is in the room….we all have one you know😌🕊
She’s gorgeous, Kenji 💕 You all have been blessed beyond measure 🙏🏻
She’s … average across the board in EVERYTHING … but she does “present” as long … and has crazy long slender fingers … all as perfect as can be. And she’s a total chillin LOVE … So she wants to be fed and cleaned up at 4am … snap to it mom and dad! She was 4weeks last Fri. We all love her to bits!
Oh bless her wee heart 💕
I wonder if her mother and father have been surprised at the magnitude of their love for her?
I mean, I believe we may think we know before our children arrive how we will love them…
And are always amazed at the depth of those feelings once we hold them.
Phooey….I did. Twas a busy day for me and I didn’t get back…
Phew! I was worried that I’d have offended you in some way. She how I hang on your every post? What’s wrong with me? 🤷🏼♂️
HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Nothing is wrong with you, dear, dear Kenji.
Offend me ???!?!!l
Not possible…
NEVER!!! 😘🤗
Kind words won’t improve these creations.
Gorgeous, spring-like weather, is causing “frisky” behavior in the trees.
Birds seeking calcium, fats, and proteins for egg laying and feather growth.
Our weather is like yours, dear Error…and our Mr and Mrs Cardinal are singing their hearts out. They are so beautiful. Almighty God certainly had His paintbrush out the day he created them 💕
“They say that a Cardinal is an angel from Heaven to let you know everything’s going to be okay.”
(thanks for that! I question my sanity sometimes but Kim says she knows for sure :p)
The day of Kim’s dad’s funeral two Mr. Redbirds came with blessings on our neighbors’s roof. Right outside our kitchen window. Have never seen that before or since.
From that day on…
Of course – behind every good man stands a great woman.
Oh my heart, ERROR. A sign surely 🕊
We experienced one just like it.
Chris’s mother passed away before I could meet her, and he kept a white hankie covered in brown polka dots tied to the gear shift in his car.
When we were burying his dad years later, standing by his grave in sombre silence, a ladybug flew in and landed on the sleeve of a friend who was with us…White wings with brown dots…haven’t seen one like it before or since.
Oh yes….definitely a sign 🙏🏻🕊
Ohhhh!!! I love that happened for you and Chris!
Little sniglets our God sends to strengthen our faith. That, “Everything is going to be okay!”
Yes sir…..we’ve had many just like that. It was clear to us…so clear 🙏🏻🕊💕
Bluebirds! They’re already singing here
Ours too! And the robins.
This time of year, right after sunup, I enjoy a symphony of birds singing their virtues. Not burdened with troubles we’re saddled with.
Makes my day!!!
Edit to add:
Pound for pound the little Carolina Wren sings with most volume.
Just Another Arrogant Ignoramus.
“In their lengthy diatribe published Tuesday, Przybyla and co-author Alexander Ward warned that Christians close to Trump are secretly plotting to advance America’s founding Judeo-Christian values should the former president defeat Joe Biden this November.
These “Christian nationalists” (A.K.A. mainstream Christians), the two wrote, represent an existential threat to the republic because they believe America “was founded as a Christian nation and that Christian values should be prioritized throughout government and public life.”
hefederalist.com/2024/02/23/politico-reporter-embarrasses-herself-attempting-to-defend-christian-nationalism-smears/
Heidi Przybyla is just another glaring example of how a very real ignorance of history & culture has been ingrained into the nation’s so-called academia & media “elite”, who are the darlings of the Leftwing media. They are increasingly being recognized by awakened Americans as intellectually inferior ignoramuses whose opinions are worthless at best and downright offensive and dangerous if given any considration.
Today’s after the Chaplet program on Relevant Radio, possibly an aired earlier program, (Drew Mariani)…

I should say NOT…Why should we reward or concede to terrorist any consideration after what took place on Oct 7. During the unprecedented attack on Israel on October 7, Hamas-led terrorists killed some 1,200 people and took 253 hostages, mostly civilians, 130 of whom remain in Gaza, including 30 presumed dead.
A Comment made to this article:
Those people in nations who don’t know the terrorism as Israel does, will never know the truth about the terrorists they support. Not knowing the truth they will always side with those they consider to be the underdogs, that is what ignorance does to people.
Understanding is coming to the western world soon, sadly, they won’t have a government that cares for them as the Israeli’s do, opinions will change, but it will be too late for hundreds of millions of people.
But He who is the creator of the universe and Father of Israel, is merciful to all who will call upon His name.
Tachles with Aviel – Too much consideration is given to the Palestinians
In my opinion there is too much concern for the Palestinians. They are spoiled and have lost a lot as a result – especially the billions in financial aid.
https://www.israeltoday.co.il/read/tachles-with-aviel-too-much-consideration-is-given-to-the-palestinians/
People are often considerate of the most difficult people. Why? Because they’re just always offended and can’t even take themselves into consideration. And for fear of spoiling their mood, everyone wants to please them. And politics also plays a role for the Palestinians. This is how difficult people always get their way, and probably the Palestinians, too. That’s unfair, yes – but not for everyone.
Israel is being called on all sides to show consideration for the 1.4 million Palestinians who have fled the fighting in the northern Gaza Strip to the southern area of Rafah on the border with Egypt. Of course these families are suffering, especially now in the cold and wet winter. But 10 million Israelis are also in need, wedged between the Gaza Strip in the south and Hezbollah and Iran in the north. Hundreds of thousands of Israelis were also evacuated due to rocket attacks in the south and north. Not only that, people in the country understand that without a total knockout in the south and north, normal life as before cannot return. And which foreign government shows consideration for the Israeli population? Israel is surrounded by enemies who all pursue the same goal: the destruction of the Jewish state.
