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 †

When I first read this, I heard in the memory channels of my mind:
“Ruuut! Ruut! BAY-BEE… RUUT!”
But then, I’m from an ancient time historians now refer to as the “twentieth century”.
NO disrespect intended 😉 It’s just Saturday morning coffee, hehe

What a beauty!
Maine Coon cat I think. Gr8 cats.
“And they will look down to the earth, but behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish. And they will be thrust into thick darkness” (Isaiah 8:22).

Good morning, Frank, are you getting over that nasty cold? And did you get all those things that Bet NM so lovingly suggested? 🙂
Good morning, GrandpaM. All back to “retirement normal”…if there is such a thing? I’ve been concerned about Frank as well. And last night I had to dole out the same to my daughter who learned she’s been exposed to now three sickies. She’ll be all right if she does as her mother suggests😉. See you down thread probably💓 Bet indeed NM!
Good morning, Betsy. Yea, back to “retirement normal”, he, he. Just had men’s breakfast in town with some good preaching. Have a few chores to do if that soup clears, then drive to San Antonio for a dinner with daughter, SIL, and kids, then hoof it back for wifey to check on her sister. Just a normal “quiet” day.
😂
Hope your daughter doesn’t get the crud.
I’m doing just fine. Thank you much, sis
Am! Thanks much!
This hymn was written by William Cowper (pronounced Cooper). He was a friend of John Newton and he wrote hymns that were included in Newton’s Olney Hymnal. Cowper suffered his entire life with depression. It was called melancholy in those days. His friends, including Newton, would encourage him to write poetry to escape the dark times that his depression would create. Much of this poetry is dark and foreboding, but the bright light of God’s love comes out anyway. This hymn has hints to the darkness in his heart inside the grand praise to his Savior.
The hymn has the same meter as Amazing Grace and the hymns can be sung to either tune. It is an interesting exercise.
Here is another example:
Olney Hymn 68: Light Shining Out Of Darkness
God moves in a mysterious way,
His wonders to perform;
He plants his footsteps in the sea,
And rides upon the storm.
Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never-failing skill,
He treasures up his bright designs,
And works his sov’reign will.
Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take,
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy, and shall break
In blessings on your head.
Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
But trust him for his grace;
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face.
His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding ev’ry hour;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flow’r.
Blind unbelief is sure to err,
And scan his work in vain;
God is his own interpreter,
And he will make it plain.

As I read the poem, I did it to the tune Amazing Grace as you suggested.
Wonderful, and would touch many hearts right now.
Thanks for sharing it.
That is beautiful and I copied it and sent it to about a dozen friends.
Amen!
That’s good news for forgiven sinners like me.
There’s a lot that can be said about this video. First and foremost is the obviously professional quality of the video itself. The band had hired a top-notch film crew who used multiple cameras (my guess is at least 3) to record the band’s performance. One of the more interesting moments in the performance is how the camera captured backup singer Jo Jo Billingsly. The camera crew understand that they were seeing her “moment” in the performance and so, being professionals, they filmed it. Sadly, Jo Jo is no longer with us, but her signal moment in this great performance remains in history. Enjoy, Treepers. 🙂
Lead singer of Skynyrd was Ronnie Van Zant who died in the band’s 1977 plane crash. Younger brother Johnny Van Zant took over as lead singer when the band reformed. Another younger brother, Donnie Van Zant, was the founder and lead singer of 38 Special.
Don Barnes was the lead singer for most of 38 Special’s hits and was also a co-founder.
Don Barnes is the lead vocalist on my favorite 38 Special songs. I make a big deal about reading album liner notes and I always watch movie credits till the end. (This might explain why I’m still single?) I let Don Barnes down and I hope he doesn’t let a 38 Special do his talking.
And long may they wave. 🙂
Exellent, I always liked Skynyrd, I was only listening to them the other day.
There were lots of rumors back in the day that the airplane crash was somehow government connected, anybody know the truth ?
Cheers Garrison.
The plane ran out of gas! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynyrd_Skynyrd_plane_crash
Good morning, M. Got to see them perform about 15 years ago at the San Antonio rodeo.
Cheers
Gotta yous them youngin words pop,
Well man dat woulda been a buzz ! 😜
And cheers to you too, Mungrel!
Thanks Garrison, I will, have a cheers that is ☺
I was and still am a fanatic of this band. Here’s a fun fact. The verse below from Sweet Home Alabama refers to the Swampers.
I had many saved lots of articles about the band and one mentioned that the Swampers is what the backup vocal gals were called by Ronnie. This verse gave Ronnie’s backup gals recognition in the song. Cool huh?
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they’ve been known to pick a song or two (yes they do)
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I’m feelin’ blue
Now how about you?
I’d read that he also called his singers the “Honkettes”. Swampers would work too, since some are all were from Mississippi.
As a teen I had their poster over my bed, listened to them every morning, letting the needle swing back around to repeat the album. My favorite song was Curtis Loew. My sister, who was working 3rd shift at UPS, would be so frustrated with the repetition that she flew out of bed and took the album back to her room and slammed the door.
Only years layer would I learn the implications for Saturday Night Special… Anti gun! “Hand guns are made for killin’, Ain’t no good for nothin’ else….. So why don’t we dump ’em people… To the bottom of the sea.
It was a disappointment, but when you hang with with the rich and powerful, watch out!
Saturday Night Special is the one I don’t listen to.
Happy Caterday, Treepers. It’s cold here in Texas, not particularly good outside weather for kitties. Our old grey Tom kitty, Boots, prides himself on be a tough-guy outside kitty—except when he comes in for some lap-time with me . . .
Tonight, he was not happy. He must’ve gone out a half-a-dozen times before he finally convinced himself that he really, seriously, didn’t want to be outside tonight. The tough-guy role is just pretense. Boots is actually a great lap-kitty, something that is quickly revealed when the weather turns cold. When that happens ole’ Boots rediscoveres the great pleasure of cuddling under the bed covers . . . with us. So, not surprisingly, when I went to check on my wife tonight, I discovered Boots snuggled as close to her as he could possibly get. He makes a great furry bed-warmer on a cold, winter night. Long may he wave . . . 🙂 I’ll let him out tomorrow when it’s a bit warmer. Be well, Treepers!
Does Boots do the typical cat thing where they can only decide if they want to go outside by standing halfway out the door for 10 minutes?
You made me laugh
I thought that was just my old gal going senile.
It’s like she gets half way out and can’t remember why she is there.
Yep. I’ve found, however, that a gentle shove toward the outside helps their decision making. . . 🙂
Good morning, Garrison. Our tough guy cat likes to come every evening and spend a couple of hours on the bed with us. I’m glad that he doesn’t stay all night long because when he does he usually sleeps so close to my feet that I end up with a back pain in the morning 😺.
Ours in Wales made great foot warmers. We always had to be aware that anytime of their choosing a sharp claw might inadvertently get us. Not good. And of course as we were in THEIR bed, not the other way around, our sleeping positions depended on how much room we were allowed. It was ever thus with all our beloved animals.
Been there, done that.
This particular cat is very careful with his claws just he is quite big and I guess in my sleep I try not to kick him so I tweak my back. The other thing is that around 3am he asks to be let out and is very loud. He’s been a loud talker ever since he was born.
And as you know part of being really grown up is that once you are awake then it’s real hard to go back to sleep 😁.
At one point we had a bunch of cats (7 actually) which, of course meant a bed full of cats on cold nights. One night I had a kitty sleeping on my head, one on either side, and one under the covers on my feet. Fortunately they were all very accommodating and didn’t cause problems.
🙂
Yes. Jesus Christ is Lord
Morning Frank, hope your better, if not kick back and have a relaxing day.
Mungrel:
20 ounces of stout coffee with some salty butter n cream whipped in, plus a hot shower? Good to go for about 4 hours.
This cold should be over tonight and Lord willing, I’ll jog Sunday morn. 🤟
Thanks for asking about my health.
I just perused Isaiah 8 and 9.
Right now? Livin’ in the USA? Ain’t pretty.
Good morning, Frank💓 Prayers that it may be so. 🙏
🙌
It occurred to me in the night that I may have overstepped in offering Aunty Bet’s Home style Remedies. I hope not. Glad you are on the mend.
Frank’s making a speedy recovery. 🙂
Between Frank’s remedy recipe and your Resveratrol suggestion, my first aid cabinet is bulging!
I thank you both for sharing and Goooood Morning to all!
You too, mungrel. Adversaries make the best friends😉
No no no!
All good! In retrospect, I should have expressed the appreciation I felt!
I’ve got all the necessary accoutrements except for maybe a nebulizer and some hawthorn berries.
I consider you my little sister anti Midler Bet!
❤️✝️❤️
Check out Fire Cider.
What it felt like listening to the not-so-supreme court discuss covid facts ………..
The big customer represents the LIBERAL justices …. it was as if they were speaking from a completely different book of facts.
Praying for you and your wonderful cat. Please be careful about the weather.
Comment intended for PJ, missed the right button.
(Thanks for the sketch, Cactus.)
Anyone here who could pray for my wonderful cat, I’d appreciate it. She’s been through it all, and has come out a champ. Tonight, there is a complication, and I will have to miss some work tomorrow.
I hope her vet will be able to make time on a Saturday. There is also a predicted ice storm. Not sure how this can work out. 🙁
(For those of you who may not know, she is a Trump cat. A smart and sensitive Maine Coon Cat, who loved the Trump rallies and hung on every word.)
Thanks to any of you who are kind enough to send prayers, and I will send prayers back your way. God Bless, and good night.
Prayers for said, may the lord heal her, and your vet have time to see her.
Just prayed for your cat. Mostly for you.
Grace to you PJ🙏
Praying for your Maine Coon… they are so special! We have a Russian Blue who’s having some belly trouble. He’s an older boy, but a faithful, sweet companion. He had troubles twice on Saturday and I woke up to him vomiting on my bed. He stood there, looking and acting like he was apologizing. My poor fur kid. So just as I did with my girl when she was an infant, I’m staying up with him and dutifully cleaning. Grim times, but LORD IS SOVEREIGN.
👀
PJ, prayers for your kitty.
Praying for the good health and healing of your cat, PJ!
God bless and have mercy on your furry companion.
Prayers, Peoria. Do keep us posted. 🙂
THE KING OF LOVE MY SHEPHERD IS
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Psalm 23, KJV
Amen, Psalm 23 KJV was the first scripture I memorized.
Niiiiiice.
We’re in the valley of the shadow of death daily!
I love fearless men. Rare.
I can tell you’re ready for the days ahead. Love it.
Thanks, brother. I really am ready to feast together with you and all our brothers and sisters here in the presence of our enemies and my cup truly runneth over.
Blessings!
Dear 1530,
Thank you
Having Christ + No created thing = Everything
Romans 8:16-39 ESV
Seems like Al Goodwyn and I both remember Right Said Fred.
Yes, in that same stomach churning way. How did he draw this without losing his lunch?
I just want to share a little triumph over the nanny state. Or I should say the killjoy state. I had a back pounding full force shower in my old apartment but this one has an ultra low flow restricted shower head. Only one and a half gallons per minute and I was used to having six gallons per minute in my old place.
So I went to the hardware store and bought another shower head and put it on in place of the apartment provided California-standard one and a half gallon shower head. And took out the restrictor!
And glory be, the water has poured out in glorious abundance and I am thrilled to bits.
Then I celebrated by watching the Seinfeld episode called “the shower head” where the apartment building replaces their shower heads with low-flow shower heads and nobody can get a decent rinse anymore. It was so funny!
🙌 🙌 🙌
When my daughter moved into an apartment, she was having trouble getting the shampoo out of her hair. She said it took forever to shower because the water just trickled out. I checked it out and bought her a new shower head & put the old one in the cabinet for when she moved out.
When she moved, she was unable to find the apartments shower head. I went to the dollar store, where I bought her the low-flow apartment shower head.
You Rebel you!
Brava, Beverly!! You rock, girl!😊
Very glad you posted your sweet victory.
Sometimes the smallest things bring the greatest delights.
I won’t soon forget your post. 🤟
I used to have a rental house of three apartments. A new renter asked for a better shower head that actually put out some water. She was used to landlords that would do nothing and expected nothing. I went to Home Depot and got her one of those great big rain adjustable shower heads and put it in the next day. She could not believe that I would go to that trouble. My answer was what it always was in these situations. “God allowed me to have this property to serve people in their need for housing. You return the service by paying your rent on time. It is a fair trade.” It is a lesson that I taught over and over to the usually young folks that rented my property. Almost everyone that lived there understood the deal. Almost.

I’m still praying for Della C and her family who lost one of her super preemie grandtwins a few days ago with his sister hanging on to her God given life. I hope in their grief that the Holy spirit is their comfort and their precious little girl is growing stronger each day🙏

I saw the following on Dr. Yeadon’s Telegram thread:
>>I work for the NHS [UK] as part of the health visiting team.. this week in our weekly meeting we were told that the special care baby unit in our town would usually have between 4/6 babies in per month and for the last few months they have had between 18/20 and they are trying to understand why 😡
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing … I wanted to scream
‘a good place to start is seeing if their mothers were injected in pregnancy’
I cannot believe they are not connecting the dots .. it’s disgusting<<
Bingo. Also, when young people are locked down by government Nazi’s using “covid” as the excuse, those young folks tend to use drugs recreationally a LOT more than older generations did. But also the younger ones don’t seem to understand the benefits of abstinence from drugs and booze during pregnancy as much as the older generations did.
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.
Cute.
My father was born in 33 and mom in 35.
Stay warm Dora💪🙏💪
My father had a great tenor voice. I can easily picture him sitting in his rocking chair watching those old movie musicals and singing right along with them, often sounding as good as the performers. Then my mother, who had a great contralto voice herself, would sometimes join in and sing some harmony line below or above the melody as needed.
Is there any doubt why all three of their kids (!) grew up with a special love of music and could all sing pretty darn good ourselves?

Morning Ya’ll, 🙂

I highly recommend this article on Fear. https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2022/01/fear_is_the_mind_killer_.html
Insurrection Indigestion- thank you, great article! It made me read the full speech of my favorite American, Patrick Henry. I visited his home with my husband 13 years ago and I want to go back to say, I am with you Patrick. What a great man, let us never forget him! It was the British then, now it is so much more of a dark , hard to see, enemy. We have to take a stand, and probably die. If you have a chance read his words, some of the greatest and most appropriate insight for today!
God Help Us All.

Wonderful post. Great inspiration there,ms Idaho
Personal favorite is #16( it has a Monday post share feel to it),close second #38.

From a time before fistfights at the gates and in the aisles
Dr. Gold
Supreme Court Justices just falsely claimed:
1. The jab prevents transmission
2. Omicron is as deadly as Delta
3. 100K children are hospitalized with COVID, many on ventilators
4. Vax mandates would prevent 100% of cases
5. Hospitals are overrun
Every point is provably false. Even a ‘casual’ look at the medical literature would have enlightened the Justices.
Their ignorance and dangerous spreading of misinformation is a serious problem.
#SCOTUS
Shocking. Politifact ruled the lie about children, false. For Politifact to rule anything from the left as false it has to be a lie that is off the charts.
On New Years Eve I posted that when we had our house in Colorado Springs (years and years ago) the back of the house faced Pikes Peak. We gave our bedroom ‘a view’, too. On New Years Eve we watched the fireworks that took place on the top of the mountain.
Now that I have learned how to post pix, this is the house. If you look closely you can see the snow capped Pike’s Peak in the background.
Very cool! I remember you posting about that!
Beautiful, the first time we drove up Pikes Peak, before any guard rails and unpaved top part of the road. I had to pry wifey’s hand open from the OS handle when we got to the top.
Also, remember the grossly overweight chipmunks at the store at the beginning of the road.
If you drove it you have an idea of what those folks who climb it to set off the fireworks go thru to get to the top – they hike? climb? in winter …
ps – after we visited the top and oohed and aahed over the view, I decided I loved looking AT the mountain more than viewing the flat. Because ‘he’ is visible from so many different directions, and visible for so many miles as you drive, I got to feel like ‘he’ was a friend.
Silly, I know….
I am watching the movie Ivanhoe.
Shows (as we all know) the power of the idea -> there are more of us than there are of them.
Of course, the good guys win – with bow and arrow and sheer determination.
Woke up at 20:30 at the drop yard outside the plant in Seward. Idled in at 21:30. Went to the doors on the east end of the plant and walked in and got my paperwork signed. Dropped trailer I brought and idled around to door 28 where the trailer I was to hook to was. Went into the office there and signed the paperwork that was layed out on the desk for me and then took my copies. The went out and hooked to the trailer. Pulled if from the door and climbed in and secured the small load with load straps. Did my pre-trip on the trailer.
Got back to my terminal in Anderson at 10:39. Took the paperwork in and then dropped the trailer in Door 26. Went to the fuel island and fueled, purged the air tanks, cleaned the windshield, windows, and mirrors. Pulled up to a pass door at the garage and went in and got a brush with grease on it and greased the fifth wheel. Pulled to the dumpster and dumped my trash. Finally parked the truck. I had 5 minutes left of the 11 hours drive time when I parked it.
Walked in the door at home at 11:10. Sherry had a big pot of Chili simmering on the stove. Went to bed but did not sleep and instead watched the new version of the movie Midway which happened to be on.
Took chili over to Steve and Betty next door. Came home and ate a bowl of chili and a couple pieces of the chocolate/peanut butter fudge that Betty had made and gave me a plate of.
Now my belly is full and I have been up for 19 hours and I’m done. Night all.
I like your truckin’ reports. Have had various family members involved in trucking and maintenance of the big rigs for decades.
Thanks!
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.

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.
