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 †

What an appropriate sermon for the times in which we find ourselves. Is there a miracle for us? We who, as a country, have turned our faces from God? We who now can see and know what our country without God has become? I fervently pray so. Dear Lord, hear our prayer🙏
Thank you, Home. Very much what we see today. We must keep our faith in God for deliverance from the evil that has taken over our country. Thank you Lord for this site where we can gather together with other Christians for prayer (when needed for our Treepers and families) and for the many Bible lessons posted here. I am not good at posting comments but I check in on my “family” every day. God Bless You All, and especially watch over FC as she struggles thru some difficult times.
Amen, Marti.
Was watching the Kennedy Center 2012, Tribute to Led Zeppelin on YouTube.
Terrific, however, every time I would glance up, camera would pan to Obama and the Wookie (never a smile), at least Obama was into the show.
During the entire Trump Presidency those Kennedy Center Honors were never held – all because the people who put that annual spectacle on did not want President Trump and First Lady Melania to be shown, i.e. the Left didn’t want to “normalize” the PDJT presidency.
Decided when that happened to never watch that show again.
Wow, just wow. I did not know that.
so many wrongs that our President Trump endured…
Like daily character assassination and savagery and dehumanizing by literally everyone. Love Trump. Hope to God he gets back in. It’s our only hope to delay the carnage.

What Are You Haunted By?
What man is he that feareth the Lord? — Psalm 25:12
What are you haunted by? You will say — “By nothing,” but we are all haunted by something, generally by ourselves, or, if we are Christians, by our experience. The Psalmist says we are to be haunted by God. The abiding consciousness of the life is to be God, not thinking about Him. The whole of our life inside and out is to be absolutely haunted by the presence of God. A child’s consciousness is so mother-haunted that although the child is not consciously thinking of its mother, yet when calamity arises, the relationship that abides is that of the mother. So we are to live and move and have our being in God, to look at everything in relation to God, because the abiding consciousness of God pushes itself to the front all the time.
If we are haunted by God, nothing else can get in, no cares, no tribulation, no anxieties. We see now why Our Lord so emphasized the sin of worry. How can we dare be so utterly unbelieving when God is round about us? To be haunted by God is to have an effective barricade against all the onslaughts of the enemy.
“His soul shall dwell at ease.” In tribulation, misunderstanding, slander, in the midst of all these things, if our life is hid with Christ in God, He will keep us at ease. We rob ourselves of the marvellous revelation of this abiding companionship of God. “God is our Refuge” — nothing can come through that shelter.
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
God created man to be master of the life in the earth and sea and sky, and the reason he is not is because he took the law into his own hands, and became master of himself, but of nothing else. ❤️
Good morning FC. Hoping there is much sunshine in your day and in your heart.
Good morning, Cat💓 Yes…haunted, but in a very good way.🙏
Mornin’ Cat! Thanks for today’s OC. Hope you are well and the sun shines for you like the Lamb of God. Blessings and Prayers. P
Good afternoon, Cat. Hope you are having a good day. ❤️😀🙏
It’s raining! 🎶
Have a blessed day everyone!!! ❤️
Blessings to you and yours as well
😊💐
🙂
Good morning Cat! And a blessed day back at you! ❤️
Good Morning, Cat. I left a message for you on yesterdays thread. Sorry it was so late, I often don’t get to check the thread till late. Hope you are having a good day.
Hi marti 🙋♀️ thank you for all your wonderful posts. Never be sorry about your schedule and don’t ever think again you’re not good at posting, please. You say the right stuff at the right moment ❤️
Anne Quiffelec is the French pianist who played the Sate’ pieces on the “Once Upon A Time In Paris” videos. She is a wonderful, sensitive, virtuoso performer in her own right. So, I thought let us listen to some of performance of other compositions. Enjoy, Treepers.
Good morning, Garrison💓 Enjoy?? I am marinating in it. Thank you.
Dear B, Just read your note from yesterday; so lovely of you take the time to write, I thought you may have been including me in the missing friends category, which is why I thought I’d say a little something about my ‘disappearance’ so you would not worry – I have bleary vision at the moment. On an different note, you’ve been on my mind especially so, recently, as I’ve been reading author Rhys Bowen whose Inspector Evan Evans series are based in Wales. In the very first chapter of the first in the series, the dialogue contain Bore Da! and I knew what it meant 🙂 Back to the tree of life we perch in every day… I am so grateful for everyone here, the prayers, blessings, scripture and music – I too am feeling the marinade/serenade from Garrison’s contributions today. I pray for you and your family today; especially your grands – I can feel your concerns about their future. Love and regards, P
Oh P!! What a lovely post. Thank you. I’m overwhelmed💖 I was including you sort of, as I know you pop in from time to time, but not nearly as much as others. I tend to, as I’ve said before, make up my own stories, if I do not see friends as often as I think I should…emphasis on the “I”😉. We all have our own lives and issues, I do realize. And things which demand our attention on a daily basis. I always hope that those issues are not upsetting or health threatening, but as most of us here are in an age bracket where those do become inevitable, I always pray life is treating residents in the branches kindly.
So interesting your reading!! And so glad you were able to use your pidgeon Welsh😁. As an aside if you didn’t know Mr Bowen’s Christian name ” Rhys” is pronounced “Rees”. Thought I’d throw that in. I’ll have to investigate his books with which I was shamefully unfamiliar. I’d hope at some point Britbox or Acorn might develop a series around them. Fingers crossed.
And I do thank you so much, P, for your prayers for my grands. They are all thankfully well and growing. It is the world they’ll inherit which concerns me as you aptly make reference to, as I’m positive it does for all grandparents. All any of us can do is keep our faith and our prayers robust.
And finally, I am dreadfully sorry about your vision. I hope so much it is a passing thing, or at least if not that something that can be resolved with little to no trouble. This I will certainly pray for you with vigour🙏 All blessings to you, parichute, and thank you for your very kind post🤗
Just now got back to the forum. You are much appreciated. Thank you for your kind words. Be well. 🙂
Happy Cursday, Treepers!
Morning all
Got in from the milk run at 16:30. Came home, ate dinner, went to bed. This morning I’ll do the three S’s and I depart for the Skokie run at 04:00. The pace this week has been like the old days in this job. Not sure I can sustain it for weeks at a time like I did before.
Morning rah. Good luck holding up and safe travels.
Know that feeling well these days. Growing old is not for the faint of heart.
I did a little calculation the other day when you posted your commercial mileage, if I hang it up next spring it’ll be 3.3 million miles, the last 30 years has been local. Of course we used to run an extra set of log books when I first started, my Dad and all the old drivers had to cheat in order to make a living. 😇
I cheated a little myself before they forced me to go on e-logs.
Sitting waiting for the gate to open at Schiller park which is the 2nd stop.
The horns are out on the drivers here again. Moron tried to intimidate me with his little clown car and failed. Thought he was going to hit my truck. Always some moron that has to push the issue at a choke point no matter how many you let in before them.
Morons abound, even running the stop signs in the parking lot of HEB.
Safe travel.
Yeah trying to put a bonneville where a smart car won’t fit. 😳
jay, you’d be appalled at the size of the parking spaces in the UK. None of our American sized cars would fit. Small isn’t the word.
Seems like Costco has the only parking spaces that are adequate. 😎
Well I can tell you a Bonneville or similar sized car if in the UK would be ticketed so fast if it tried to park in any (what they call) car park for taking up the three or so spaces it would need.😂
🙂 🙂 🙂
As always, stay off of “80” thru New Lenox and Joliet, construction still in progress.
Not going that far west thank you!
Mornin’ Rah – What you do sounds like a lot of work, at home and on the road. May God keep you safe!
NATIONAL ROTISSERIE CHICKEN DAY – JUNE 2
Well in honor of this day I suppose I’ll just have to brown myself in sunshine. Good day for it too. Morning rebel. Have yourself a rockin great day. Cheers!
Happy Thursday, Levi
Sherry had a BLT ready for me to take this morning and I of course forgot it!
Yesterday when I got in my pickup truck at the terminal to come home l called her and she started frying the bacon.
Now when I come in the door Geisha the cocker is always there to greet me but that time she wasn’t! She was at Sherry’s feet because she was frying bacon! I don’t blame her. There is probably no smell on earth that drives me to hunger pains more than that aroma.
My absolute favourite sandwich…what a tragedy!!
…offset by the wonderful devoted wife you have for making it for you (and other delicious offerings).
2 June 1789
Martha Washington became the first First Lady of the United States. The young country elected her husband George Washington to be its first president. While she never lived in the White House (it wasn’t built yet), she did live in a home named White House – her first husband Daniel Custis’, plantation home. They were married seven years before his death in 1757.
2 June 1861
The birthdate of Helen Herron Taft. She left a legacy of cherry trees in the country’s capital. Her legacy also includes encouraging her husband, William Taft to accept the Republican nomination for president. Helen Taft’s ambition for the White House was even greater than Taft’s, pointing him past the U.S. Supreme Court to the highest office in the land. After serving four years as president, Taft would later be appointed to the Supreme Court, the only president to serve in both capacities.
2 June 1886
In the first wedding of a president in the White House, Grover Cleveland marries Frances Folsom. At the age of 21, Folsom is the youngest woman to hold the title of first lady in the United States.
2 June 1924
Nearly four years after the 19th Amendment passes, President Calvin Coolidge signs the Indian Citizenship Act. The law grants citizenship to all Native Americans born within U.S. territory. However, state law still governed the right to vote.

Hey…now you’re sneaking photos of jacks brothers? Well, they are adorable aren’t they? 🥰 I’m a sucker for an adorable bundle of fur 🥰
Cat, I’m telling you Leon’s got a hidden camera somewhere. 😂
“Right now, it’s kind of sunny, things are doing fine, everyone thinks the Fed can handle this,” Dimon said. “That hurricane is right out there, down the road, coming our way.”
I remain a firm believer that there will still be a BIG event this year from which there will be no turning back.
On March 20, 2020, I felt a sense of horror as IL went into ‘lockdown” or lets call a spade, a spade–state sponsored martial law.
Now, the sense of absolute horror occurs, for me since January 2021,, almost every day.
In 2020, I thought that “this cannot be happening”…and yet it did. I feel the same now.
Similar here. At various points along the way, culminating in THE STEAL to the point where we are now. Except, at this point, I am mostly numb to the depth of each new milestone.
All we can do is tie another knot in the rope and hang on.
In noodles, white sauce, topped with cheese and bread crumbs, back at 350 degrees, for 30 minutes.
Lima beans, if you can find them and you don’t need a mortgage to buy them, tuna, and a cup of white sauce with lemon juice to taste (I like a lemony taste) and a dash of paprika. Bread crumbs atop, 350 oven until browned. A fave.of mine from a decades old GOP cookbook.
Lemons are from heaven B! My favorite too.

Ooooooo!!!! Noice!!! Like beans used to be as easy to find as any vegetable. When I returned from the UK where there weren’t any, I discovered there were barely any here either.
I’m talking about the Fordhook ones, not the inadequate baby ones. I adore them and miss them a LOT!!!
Oh my gosh, P!!!!😍😍😍 Look at all those yummy dishes!!!!!
SAVED!!!!
Lima…auto correct has never heard of those.

I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. II Tim. 1:12
O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land. Psa. 63:1

Klaus Meine (vocals)
Hard rockers. They had some great stuff.
Levi – that’s one more thing I love about this Treehouse family… one moment we’re groovin’ to Scriptures that heal and soothe our anxieties as our Savior instructs us to do, and moments later we’re soaking up some Scorpions whose harmonies and melodies soothe in a totally different but powerful way. I didn’t read the link closely and only listened because you commented. Thank you.
Yeah, now that’s funny. And groovy too. When our son was playing hockey a coach snookered me into doing all the music from the scorekeepers box. Had the time of my life watching him play and putting all that stuff together. It was during those years that I gave the Scorpions more of a listen. The Zoo was a staple. Rock On and Amen!
Good morning everyone. Morning prayers delivered. Give them time.
Here’s hoping you find your smile is a little wider, your laughter unforced, your worries diminished and your pain minimized. God bless all and have a wonderful day. Cheers!
Beautiful 😻
Good Morning Levi ❤️
Good morning, Levi💓
Good morning Betsy. All the best!
One more good morning, all y’all! Have a blessed day! I’ll be away for the rest of the day.
Good morning Gramps. Blessings to you and yours. Have a great day where ever your day takes you. Cheers!
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
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.

Good Morning everybody 🙋♀️
Bumped into this little mind pondering:
Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that really isn’t you so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.
🤔?
now that is what I call a profound thought
Like the old preacher said, Ifvyou ain’t who you is, you is who you ain’t. 😻
reminds me of my mom looking at the label on her underwear
Fruit of the Loom?
ha ha ha ha
So true, Cat, so true.
MSN reporting on NYTimes story:
“Within moments of the brief exchange, Mr. Samsel, a Pennsylvania barber, can be seen moving forward and confronting the police in what amounted to the tipping point of the riot. Despite lacking proof for their claims, many Republicans have surmised that Mr. Epps instructed Mr. Samsel to antagonize the officers.”
Because of this, the Times considers the Ray Epps story “debunked”.
Frankly, I have never held anybody talk about this particular incident from 6-Jan.
Clear video shows ol’ Ray Epps urging the crowd to go for the Capitol bldg.
Never mind the crowd rightly calling him a ‘Fed’.
A righteous battle cry if ever there was one, Flyover. May we hear it loudly each morning and carry it with us in our hearts every day.
Say it Loud
Say it PROUD
Good morning, ms idaho💖 All His blessings for you both. Hoping your Guardian Angel is on duty. I’m sure he will be.🤗
hmmm – I thought I felt a feather weight on my right shoulder
you saw him?
Oh yes😉🙏 I was reminded of something which happened to me in Wales.
I was standing in my kitchen looking out to our huge, beautiful garden. Suddenly, there was a forceful blast of ice cold air on my neck. It lasted about three seconds and was not a natural cold.
I turned every quickly. There was no one behind me. I was alone. There is no explanation for it.
Similarly, we came home one day through the back door into the kitchen. We had a plate rack on one end of it, very high up, on which I’d hung copper pans. One of them was swinging to and fro with some vigour. I can’t explain it.
Once, before these two unexplainable, curious things occurred, someone I knew only slightly from our village asked me where we lived. When I told her, she said, “Oh, you live in the haunted house.”
Make of that what you will. But as I’ve gone through my life, I’ve come to believe there are angels. Especially guardian ones who have more than once protected me and my children. I don’t think it’s just a fancy of mine. I believe for the two occasions I’m thinking of, I am here and my son is here by their precious protection.
I wish I could say a feather was left for proof, but I cannot, sadly. Nevertheless, I believe it with all my being. I’m certain yours is with you, ms idaho…behind a door or otherwise🌷💖🙏
Good morning Flyover, Levi, and Betsy. This will be my battle cry today.
I’m looking forward to a day of fun taking the Nipper to Sea World but will put on the Full Armor of the Lord.
Blessings to y’all this day!
Good morning, G💓!! Oh what fun you two will have. Enjoy the day which will no doubt provide many “mental cocktails” for your memory cabinet, to be enjoyed at your leisure.🤗
Fauci announced he is stepping down by 2024.
The NSA announced it is already waging cyberwar against Russia.
Audio from China’s national planners has them discussing with its mega city staffers preparations for war with the US.
McDonalds pulled out of Russia.
Apple is pulling manufacturing out of China.
The Club of Rome told us in 1972 that in a specific year – 2020 – global civilization would take a sharp turn toward collapse.
It said the Earth’s Population would be back to where it was in 1900 by 2040 + then we could Build Back Better (though it didn’t use that slogan then).
If you don’t have a bomb shelter ==== start digging ————- fast…..
It does sound as if the stage is undergoing final preparations. Apple out of China? A big tell.
I lean on the Everlasting Arms of Jesus Christ.
A revival in the recognition of the need for God + our corrupt natures, seeking God’s Will + repentance is what is needed. Isn’t going to happen. Not until things get far worse.
Afternoon Treepers!
Glory to God for all things
Dear Betsy,
I’m sure you saw this, because you don’t miss much:
A research project starting this week sees the cooperation of four elementary schools in Wales — scientists will serve the participants a “conventional mince” combination of plant-based protein and the insect protein. The study is part of a move to make the United Kingdom “greener,” to hopefully encourage the rank-and-file plebeians to move away from traditional meat sources and toward insects. From the i news:
Such has become of the Emerald Isles since our ancestors left in the 17th century. What a shame. May God have mercy on them.
Thank you, Lonstar!! Indeed I did. Loads of baddish words from me, and a comment on it elsewhere which said in essence I think those sweet children will give their teachers or whoever an instant answer. I can hardly believe it, but then as we feel, we lived there at the end of the best times, Lonestar.
Everything has gone downhill so fast, including our once lovely Llangollen, which has been destroyed visually by endless jobsworths, bureaucrats, and local do gooders. It makes us so sad, but eternally grateful that we were there when that town had her “Sunday best” on each and every day.
Nothing stays the same…nothing. But idiocy rules now, and the whole of the UK is the very much poorer for it….sob. No one is safe from the clutches of an evil WEF.
Amen
Amen 🙏
Amen.
Amen
Amen.
Amen.
And please pardon my absence last night…apparently I caught Covid *again* and last night, was asleep. Relative got me some Ivermectin and hopefully am on the mend. Still feverish
Praying for your full recovery.
So I woke up at 01:20 or so and got ready, went to work, and departed for the Skokie run at 03:45. Got home at 16:30. Saw Steve and Betty were out doing something and walked over. They are getting ready to house wash the north side, back, and part of the south side of their 2 story home.
I wasn’t going to let Steve do the ladder work. He’s several years older than I and though not fat, he is a big old Swede. So I helped and insisted on doing the ladder work. Got all the ladder work done and then came home because i was quite frankly played out. My tank was dry.
So now I am sitting getting something to eat and pretty soon I will be hitting the sack. No runs tomorrow! So I should be able to get my yard mowed and maybe some other stuff done. But after 18 hours working I’m done!
Good night all!
