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 †

Morning Ya’ll 🙂
Goodness Jay, a toe-tapper, big grin-getter, a boogie woogie and the two-step all in one delightful post!! It is hard to beat Chet Atkins, Asleep at the Wheel and Rex Allen, Jr. Thanks a million! No favorites! Loved them all!
🇺🇸🇺🇸😎
Good morning, Mr jay! If those don’t get me going, then there’s no help.🤗🎶
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😁🌼
Good morning jay!

Howdy Garrison 🙂
Howdy, Jay. 🙂
Good morning, Garrison. Another Texas hot one. Just stepped outside first thing to feed a feral boy demanding his breakfast. Next up, the requisite morning brush…or two…or three. Hoping he lets me have my cup of tea first.
Uh oh…no. I’m being summoned and I must attend😉
Morning, Bet. We’re just two months away from October and those transformative “Blue Norther'” cold fronts coming down from Canada . It helps to think positive. 🙂
Can’t wait!!
Good morning Bet, I can barely wait, either. Morning here was very pleasant, with a slight coolish breeze so I didn’t even break a sweat watering the garden. Now it’s starting to heat up. Got to take mom shopping this morning and while she’s doing that will squeeze in a workout. Then will see what honey dos my bride has for me.
Yesterday we took my sister in law to San Antonio for her to month check up with her oncologist. No sign of the cancer that we were dealing with but now one of the spots in her lungs looks like cancer, stage 1. So now we do biopsies, then radiation. At least now I’m retired so I can help with driving and such. Don’t know yet how many treatments but God will get us through this one, too. Blessed be His Holy Name!
Have a blessed day, dear sister. ❤️
Oh no, G…bless her soul. What she’s been going through. That’s not good news, but perhaps catching it so early, as they seem to have done, is a good sign it can be taken care of without putting her through anymore. And yes, He will. He’s always in the room, no matter where you all are.
It has been a whirlwind for you since you retired. But you are such a wonderful human being, G. With a heart so big, and a love for family. And you are truly bless-ed that you can be that linchpin that every family needs. I am so honoured to be your friend 💖, as you are mine, dear brother🙏🤗
Thank you, Bet! That means a lot to me. 🙂
🙏😘
Morning Garrison! Be nice to get a Blue Norther right now, combined with a tropical disturbance with about 10 inches of rain, spread over 3 days. 🙏🏻😀
Two months ’till Oct. 🙂
🙂
It’s Cursday, Treepers. Pet your puppies for me . . . 🙂
The song you posged, “It’s just a dog” brought tears to my eyes as it brought me to thinking of all of the furry buddies I have had over my lifetime… the joy and warmth and companionship they offered me. The truly individual personalities they each had and showed me. The richness they added to my life, simply by being a part of it. I am now down to just one left.. and she is getting old as am I.. an 18 year old cat.. arthritic and limited but still loving and a joy. Thanks Garrison
Nutshells can be very informative. Here is one:
In the coming weeks + months, keep 2 seemingly different items in mind as you watch the Propaganda come out of our global + national institutions:
Monkey Pox Global Crisis + Global Famine…
We now know as Fact – Covid kills a tiny % of the people infected. We should understand the Lockdowns were not necessary to combat it. That the Lockdowns were more for The Great Reset than a Global Health Emergency…
…but…they activated codified Emergency Policies to give them the Power to launch the reformation of civilization by calling it an Emergency.
They are doing it again with Monkey Pox over which the WHO just told Tech Companies to censor people who doubt the official narrative they are promoting.
What about the Global Famine that is also rising? Is that a Global Emergency?
Well, the same powerful cabal that used Covid for The Great Reset launch — had The Netherlands + Canada – two of the largest global food producers – attack 1/3rd of their farming production…
One the one hand, fear of deaths was used to lock the global economy down — but fear of deaths from starvation has led to — MAJOR cuts in global food production.
Data Analysts look for incongruity in numbers to spot potential problems/errors. They are like red flags telling you to investigate those data sets more closely.
— Covid + Monkey Pox vs Rising Famine is one such mammoth incongruity…
If this was about Protecting Lives around the world, we would not see this incongruity.
If this were about The Great Reset — to depopulate the Earth + return us to Feudalism where a handful of people who deserve to run all our lives are given the ability to do so, it makes sense…
I should have added – every time you here about the Climate Crisis/Emergency, think about the history of Covid + the rising famine.
The rhetoric has consequences. They call 2 of them an Emergency to kick in Emergency Provisions with real world consequences they put into policies over the decades in preparation for The Great Reset.
The Famine is/will be a bonafide Emergency but rather than use extraordinary measures to increase food production + distribution – they are doing the exact opposite…
Also view it like this – Children are the least effected by Covid but using rhetoric + policies on emergencies they justified shooting kids up with an experimental, DNA-altering “Vaccine”.
But, as children around the world in many countries are having their health + lives harmed by Starvation + Shortages + soon Mass Deaths — the same Powers that coerced Covid Vaccines on children are —— attacking Food Production in the most important food exporting nations…
Do you see the picture these data points are painting…?
As my grandchildren begin school, my daughter and I already have a homeschool plan in place if masks reappear. I am a Sped, English teacher and will drive two hours to help. It isn’t just the Covid shot, they are pushing Gardisal and two other shots on teens.
Just say no these days is to Big Pharma
Not just no, LB…HELL NO!!! Gardisil has a horrible rap sheet, terrible and irreversible side effects. When Gardisil first came out, our then governor here in Texas, Rick Perry, tried to make it mandatory. That was shot down almost immediately.
Big Pharma is the devil’s right hand.
Godspeed with your bless-ed grandchildren and their homeschooling, if it comes to that. We as mothers and grandmothers are the only ones standing between them and a debauched godless world. 🙏
Bet, governor Good Hair was just one of the long line of globalist tools that we’ve had here in Texas. Unfortunately, gov. Abbott turned out to be not that much different.
Governor Good Hair😂😂😂😂😂!!!! I’m dying here…
Abbott just following in the tradition of Texas RINOS. But a big fat no to “Beto”. Dear gosh, how that useless Peter Pan has support is just beyond me.
Supported? Just like Biden was supported.
The government is a cartel, criminals, when this country identifies them as such we might have a chance. MSM also.
I said exactly that on the Tucker thread, Palerider. Cartel in every sense of that word.
Out of state money flowing in to fund the little twerp. Apparently his statewide town halls are getting close to zero views, so I read. Few showing up, except in or near various universites, such as my alma mater UT in Austin. The students recognize an aging frat boy (stuck in a time warp), when they see one. He’s just like them.
A no experience, perpetual student is “Beto”. Just the type Dems love.
Beto is a Puto.
Si, si, SI!!!
[been trying to post.. if this one posts.. I had to take out most of the diving side.. maybe CTH thinks it’s best for it to remain hidden in the area of intrigue..]..
[cont’d.. from the last two posts..]
Part II.. Pipeline Dredging
laying pipe is one thing.. dredging pipe.. is a totally different operation..
the dredge required periodic checks as well.. which were much more challenging.. a higher calculated risk.. my kind of stuff..
you have to know the machine.. and you have to know the risks.. and how to be aware of the signs of impending deep sht within seconds.. to immediately initiate evasive maneuvers..
due to the slurry.. you have zero visibility.. so you have to intimately know the dredge by memory.. how it is constructed.. so you will always know where you are..
the Company.. my supervisor.. and the lead divers.. all across the board.. required every diver to accurately draw the dredge in detail by memory before allowing anybody to dive on it..
you are blindly going into a “live” but idling huge industrial machine.. underwater.. on the seafloor.. in a freshly dug trench.. with zero visibility..
zero visibility can make or break a diver.. you are in innerspace.. total darkness.. and it is imperative you know where you are.. and know exactly what you are doing..
you have to “see through your fingers”.. by feeling the sled structure.. or ‘live stream’ a mental picture in your mind of where you are and what you are doing during the whole dive..
otherwise it becomes a wasted dive – and you don’t want to do that.. on any dive.. especially if there is long decompression involved..
so.. after your dive cycle.. did you accomplish your mission.. can the barge move forward.. the dive supervisor knows.. and the other divers on deck know.. even the topside deck riggers know..
and more importantly.. the barge foreman knows.. and the customer Company man knows.. be it Shell.. Tenneco.. Transco.. etc.. their company man is out there too.. on deck.. watching.. listening.. to the whole operation..
because when the diver is in the water.. he is the point man.. of the whole operation..
this was the big league.. ..you have a professional audience.. who expected professional results.. so you had to deliver..
and they all are standing right by the dive station.. listening to the dive radio communications.. hearing what is going on the whole time..
and hearing you.. your experience and reputation as an oilfield diver in the industry are laid bare for all to hear.. these were major worldwide energy companies.. and we were major worldwide deep sea construction contractors..
I’m up next.. air check.. com check (radio communications).. while my Diver/Tender buddy drops my umbilical down to the waterline..
then lightly slaps me on my back.. or my ass cheek.. depending on our relationship.. lol..
I don’t hesitate.. and jump in..
Part III.. Ditch Checks.. Down into the Danger Zone.. [..cont’d.. stay tuned..]..
meanwhile.. back on the beach..
” . . . this was the big league.. ..you have a professional audience.. who expected professional results.. so you had to deliver. . .”
And we have an entire American demographic of 20-somethings who have little idea of what “work” is really like. They think being on time is “racist”, have never pulled all-nighters, sleeping in their trucks, to get a job done and would think you were crazy to expect that of them. In contrast, my professor from years back put himself through school working summers as a roughneck. He once told me that they’d sometimes see blood on the drilling floor. The tool pusher would then have everyone line up, pull off their gloves to see who’d gotten cut . . . or lost a finger . . .
yes sir.. you are correct.. most everybody these days have no idea..
after the first couple of years of training.. I was never the same.. I was a completely changed man..
even back then my parents.. friends.. nobody could comprehend the depth of change in my mindset..
these days I don’t think companies are even allowed to train like they did back in our day..
it is a lost art.. that had forged American greatness..
Good morning, Texian. Another chapter in your amazing life saga, every one which takes us down there with you. Blessings to you, and thank you. B
I thought that today, Cursday, would be the perfect time to announce that I have found a little sheltie to rescue and am in the adoptive process right now.
The little dude is an 18 months old male who needs an active and playful dog in the household. He seems to be the perfect match for my little guy who lost his big brother in April. And is still lonely in spite of me. The little guy was turned over to rescue as his elderly owner could not keep up with his energy.
We meet in the near future and hopefully move on from there.
Oh what happy news, Aggiegirl!! What a lucky little chap.
It must have been a hard decision for his previous owner, but a loving one for the best. And here are you waiting for the right one, which we all knew would happen. Please keep us up on when the ultimate happy day of his homecoming arrives. Every finger crossed.
We are at the moment grandpup sitting our daughter’s Maggie, aka the Mags, while she takes summer break with her three teens. Maggie came to her by the same route…an elderly person who could no longer take care of her.
I am so pleased for you and for his soon to be brother. Really happy!!🤗💖
thank you for your sweet words!!
It is a little sad as both the mom/dam and pup/youngster lived with the sweet lady. So they will be split up but the mom dog is already at her fur-ever home.
I periodically check the sheltie rescue site to see what/who is available, as I want a ‘match made in heaven’! I am not really ready but I can make myself ready and find myself planning little things, like training, a dog bed, new bowl etc….leash, collar, training…
My bigger concern has been my youngster here…shelties do the best with a buddy. And he is so lonely, even with me.
I missed out on one in TX…a reactive fellow but he actually found his fur-ever home with a little girl. This boy had been returned to the rescue, several times, because he was ‘reactive’. That boy has it made and has improved with this family. Its all about the kids!
You’ll be readier. than you may feel, I think, Aggiegirl. I suspect Someone may have had a Hand in this.
And I can’t tell you how my heart aches for his mistress as was. She’ll be feeling the absence of both very deeply, and I am so so sorry for that. What a heart she has to recognize when she needed to make sure those two she loved so much were in a safe a loving new home. My prayers for her are truly offered.🙏
Shelties are great little dogs, Aggiegirl. Congratulations on your new puppie! 🙂
Thank you! He is not mine yet, as we have to have a ‘meet up’ or two to make sure the boys get along etc. That should happen next week. The rescue is a 501c3 so there are lots of boxes to check given the ‘state’ regulations. Almost there.
Shelties are so sweet and lovable…and smart!

July 28 Oswald Chambers
God’s Purpose or Mine
He made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side… —Mark 6:45
We tend to think that if Jesus Christ compels us to do something and we are obedient to Him, He will lead us to great success. We should never have the thought that our dreams of success are God’s purpose for us. In fact, His purpose may be exactly the opposite. We have the idea that God is leading us toward a particular end or a desired goal, but He is not. The question of whether or not we arrive at a particular goal is of little importance, and reaching it becomes merely an episode along the way. What we see as only the process of reaching a particular end, God sees as the goal itself.
What is my vision of God’s purpose for me? Whatever it may be, His purpose is for me to depend on Him and on His power now. If I can stay calm, faithful, and unconfused while in the middle of the turmoil of life, the goal of the purpose of God is being accomplished in me. God is not working toward a particular finish— His purpose is the process itself. What He desires for me is that I see “Him walking on the sea” with no shore, no success, nor goal in sight, but simply having the absolute certainty that everything is all right because I see “Him walking on the sea” (Mark 6:49). It is the process, not the outcome, that is glorifying to God.
God’s training is for now, not later. His purpose is for this very minute, not for sometime in the future. We have nothing to do with what will follow our obedience, and we are wrong to concern ourselves with it. What people call preparation, God sees as the goal itself.
God’s purpose is to enable me to see that He can walk on the storms of my life right now. If we have a further goal in mind, we are not paying enough attention to the present time. However, if we realize that moment-by-moment obedience is the goal, then each moment as it comes is precious.
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
Defenders of the faith are inclined to be bitter until they learn to walk in the light of the Lord. When you have learned to walk in the light of the Lord, bitterness and contention are impossible.
Good morning, Cat💖
The Solid Rock
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame.
But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name.
On Christ the solid Rock I stand.
All other ground is sinking sand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness seems to hide His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace.
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
His oath, His covenant, His blood,
Support me in the whelming flood.
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh may I then in Him be found.
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
Amen 🙏🏻
Ever thought about a rock, how Jesus was likened to a rock. You can use it for so much and it can cause so much damage. Every Bible word has infinite meaning.
We are to follow his example.
Tsur Olam, the Rock of Ages.
David felling Goliath…language is beautiful and powerful. This is why I love the Book of Common Prayer, my copy leather bound given to me on the occasion of my confirmation.
There is an organization in Britain for the Preservation of the Book of Common Prayer. With so many changes in the Anglican Church there, and sadly the Episcopal Church here of the past decades, there are those across the pond who recognize the power of traditional text and worship and work assiduously to keep it as it is. They do sterling and else voted work to maintain its use.
Unfortunately…. we often play cat n mouse with ourselves.
Oh, but then our inner rascal calls it quits on hide n seek. Phew !
May satisfaction
—near purrrrfection delight you today, Cat 🥰
Morning Cat! Very appropriate reminder for me to pay attention just to the present.
When are you going to emerge from the forest?
❤️😻
Hoping she’ll find Levi in there somewhere and bring him out with her.
Prayers for you, Levi, always always ongoing.🙏
I pray that Levi is ok.
Too sudden, G. I’m very concerned.
Got into an argument with a catholic, “our flesh is perfect and all are Christians who are born into this world”.
That is religion for me. A word spoken but not taught, never learned or understood.
I don’t need to perfect this idea anymore than that, I know the souls here know better. But, I found it a shock that people believe such things. He could not be reasoned with.

I poured out my complaint before him; I shewed before him my trouble. Psa. 142:2

G-d’s instructions to Joshua, before entering the promised Land.
Interesting video on Vineyard of the Saker. Gonzalo Lira talks about the persecution of Alina Lipp and Graham Phillips. Definitely worth watching.
Good morning, Joe. I’ve been on the Saker over the last few days. I will certainly look this one up. The only “news” we get in this country about the protection racket going on over there is a story about a Zelenskyy Vogue photoshoot and the billions of our tax dollars being funneled in to Zelenskyy’s bank account to keep him quiet. Nothing about how the country is being roundly crushed while he poses and preens and pockets his blood money. Thank you for this, my friend.
I hope all is well with you as we crawl through this miasma of heat towards cooler weather one day. Blessings as always🙏.
Another video posted by Gonzalo Lira on July 24th. The vid talks about something Jake Sullivan said about Zelensky. To paraphrase, Sullivan said that “Zelensky should fear for his personal safety”. Watch that video if you haven’t seen it already; what Lira has to say is chilling. The term “projecting” comes to mind….
Hey, we might get some rain in my area. Possible thunderstorms later this evening.
Wow, that was a spooky video about Zelensky (Gonzalo Lira’s July 24 vid on the Saker web site). Something to watch for in the next few weeks.
Blessings to you.
Mornin’ Joe.
It’s been obvious that mr. 👠 will be taken out.
Didn’t think about the “Russia, Russia, Russia ” angle;
– should have though.
Good evening Patience. I guess it’s not a matter of if, but when.
I caught that one the other day. I don’t think he is wrong. As he said, the fools always tell us (and all our enemies) well in advance what’s coming. Perhaps Z was too busy with his photo shoot in a time of war to pay attention. I do think it will happen as well. Not wishing for any man’s death I will add. Just waiting for the people running this show to decide when the most opportune time politically for them will be to take him out.
Cheers, my friend.
Praying you get some desperately need rain. Of you do get some, have a chat with it and send of southerly, please!!🙏
Woke up about an hour ago to the sound of rumbling thunder. Doesn’t look like there was much rain though.
8:48 pm. 76 degrees, light rain off and on. Days are getting slightly shorter. Will try to encourage rain to head south in your direction. I’m sure you could use it.
Good morning, Andrew. Amen!
Good morning all. When I last wrote about the weather I noted that the NW US which has been running generally cooler than normal would heat up and that thus the climate change would move up there for a time as other parts of the US that have been hot get a bit of a break from the heat.
Soooo predictable:
Spokane, WA severe weather | Microsoft Weather (msn.com)
In other news on the climate change scam, an extensive survey of US surface stations finds that about 96% of the stations do not meet NOAAs own standards due to purposeful placement in man made hot spots.
New Surface Stations Report Released – It’s ‘worse than we thought’ – Watts Up With That?
This is one way they are doing their best to make current temperatures appear to be raising. The other method to systematically go back in the records of past temperature data and lower the daily high numbers and raise the daily low records.
So they corrupt current data and adjust past data to make it appear that the US is warming over all.
Rah, there is a movie I’ve bookmarked, full length, called THE DIMMING by Dana Wigington, about climate engineering going on now, and which it seems has been going on for a while by this wicked government. Droughts or flooding, a project conducted by the worst. I see from the info that Catherine Austin Fitts, amongst others, is a contributor to it. Here s the link if you have time on one of your rest stops to watch.

Here is an interview about the flipping of the magnetic poles and how that might affect how much solar radiation gets through to us as a result of a disrupted magnetosphere.

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.

They no doubt tried to juggle the figures to keep it positive and failed. So apparently it is way worse than the announced figure. Anyone surprised? I’m not.
My husband is really struggling to pray for these narcissists and evil ones in charge. Does anyone have a suggestion?
When I have trouble praying for someone I am very honest with the Lord about it. He knows anyway. I just tell Him that I want to obey His command to pray for our enemies but I’m having trouble with it. I ask His Holy Spirit to please intervene and pray what needs to be prayed. Then, after some introspection, I find myself confessing that were it not for His grace and His grace alone, there go I. I hope this is of some help to you.
Romans 11:33-36
Beautiful
LB,
The Psalter
Saint Arsenios of Cappadocia (+ 1924) prayed the Psalms for specific needs, problems, situations, including troublesome people and rulers.

Me, too, LB. I found that I can honestly pray that they will be led to see the wickedness of their actions, repent, and turn back to the Lord. I can pray that God Almighty can bring peace and justice back to our land.
I can’t pray for their deaths or ruin – even though i think they deserve it – I feel that goes against what the Bible teaches us.
The only realization I’ve been able to reach is to pray that their eyes, hearts and souls turn away from the evil which has captured them, LB. That’s all I can do.
But the righteous hatred I feel for their evil and for the inhuman misery they are inflicting on others, especially children, will mirror the hatred of Almighty God for these things they do. They all need a Damascene moment of immense and life changing power. Please tell him he is not alone in struggling with this.

Now Team Biden is blundering into hot war with the CCP. Pray that is averted.
The CCP would not pull their punches like Putin has in Ukraine if it comes to that.
They would launch the hypersonics and sink aircraft carriers.
Amen
Amen.
Amen.
Amen🙏 …by the way, auscitizenmom, you may have missed my post about Pastor Pawlowski. He has been vindicated by the Alberta Court, which said his persecution, arrest, and imprisonment were illegal.
He is a free man now and back with his flock.
God was with him and has answered all the prayers offered on his behalf. Thank you so much for including him over the months in your evening prayer. I have no doubts we were heard.🙏
Amen…
Amen 🙏
Amen
Amen.
Amen.
im Still behind on capitalism, I just realized that number one in news means disinformation for hire is the goal. It’s why drudge changed his tune.
Its complete! There is no moral ground only profit. I’d say religion would have held out the longest but, nope. They fell with a whisper that their tax exemption would disappear. For a group that is supposed to gather no profit.
Now, add all the Congress crooks and you see, those fake speeches about ‘OUTRAGE’ are just for money. Rooster head, Ted, all of them. Minus MTG she is the only one legit in her ways.
Is there one honest person left?
Jesus Christ is Lord.
