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 †

Wow!
Beautifully marked cat!
What breed is that?
Morning Ya’ll 🙂
Very nice. My personal favorite.
Good morning, Mr jay. Love Johnny Cash,and a couple of these I’ve never heard. That’s what is so lovely about all our friends here posting music…so many discoveries, even when we think we’ve heard them all😉
Good morning, Garrison, my friend who is absent this morning. I pray you are well. The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you🙏
Good morning, Betsy.
I join you❣️
-🫖
Good morning, Patience and Ma 🤗🤗…I’d missed you as well for a couple of days, though that could be because we’ve been so absorbed by the obsequies in Britain, and I haven’t stayed on top of this beautiful thread as much. So glad to see my cup all ready.
I hope it’s just his computer which has given him trouble in the past. At any rate, if he checks in I wanted him to know his Treehouse friends are praying for him behind his back, as it were. It’s what we do.🙏💕
Been really busy 🤪…
Always lurking, but have had little time to post.
I have continued-well-wishes for Garrison. ❤️✝️
We humans are ever-adapting. Yep.
Logic and acceptance are woven with down and up emotions….
memories and stories that bring absolute inner joy;
in the midst of overwhelming, mind blowing , breath taking sadnesses.
(inhale, sigh)
-and so much more.
It is quite a process
to re-learn to live with all that is behind; what was
-still solidly mentally present.
Perhaps one of the hardest things we ever do. And nobody warns us.
For me, I remember thinking that once my children left the nest and were out on their own, earning a living etc, the concern or worry for them would diminish into their adulthood.
More fool me. It only gets more intense. Can’t reach out and touch them. And here is where God steps in for in absentia me.
You are oh so right, my friend.
Hi, Patience 🙂
There’s my guy❣️
Hello, Garrison.
-😎
Good morning Bet and Patience! We’ll, after waiting for 2 hours yesterday we got the verdict – adenocarcinoma. It was delivered by a young man, nurse or doctor’s aide, not by the doctor. Weird.
‘The not so bad news is that it is not a metastatic cancer but primary and there aren’t any indications for it to be in the lymphnodes so it renders itself to a targeted treatment like radiation directly to the lesions. There are several of them. Now we have to talk to her oncologist and start the radiation. If it is as I suspect Monday through Friday than that means daily trips to San Antonio. But between my bride, our oldest son and I, and mainly with God’s help we should be able to handle it.
❤️
I feared it would not be good news, G, though I prayed that it would be. And I am so dreadfully sorry. But that it has not metastasized is a bright ray in an otherwise worrying diagnosis. So much progress has been made in cancer treatments, as seen in those who have obtained remission, even elimination, of this insidious disease.
And this is what I pray for your sister in law. That your family is there and close is a blessing for her. God will be with you all as you navigate this latest trial. Of this I have no doubt.
That it was not the doctor who delivered the unwelcome news is disturbing. I don’t know what has happened to the once compassionate physician. My own father, a surgeon, delivered such news to his patients on more occasions than he wanted, many of whom were friends. I am thinking especially of our rector’s wife. For him, it was part of his responsibility as a man who promised to do no harm and a man who connected with each person who came to him, some at their worst moments and who placed their trust in him, as he always recognized.
I am prayerfully asking that all those who will see her and administer her treatment are cut from the same mold as he was. That they will treat her with respect and kindness, as well with superb knowledge and wisdom in ridding her of this cancer. Professionals like that do exist. I suspect all of you will meet them along this unwanted journey.
And she has all of you who care for her…her intercessors and champions…who will make sure she is never alone in this battle. No one in this situation could wish for more…with much love and high hopes in a Power greater than ourselves, my brother in Christ🙏💕
Prayers Gramps . . . 🙂
Thanks Garrison.
Amen …..
Thank you Bet! We already knew, this was just the confirmation. Thankfully, that particular doctor did just the biopsy. The oncologist that treated her other cancer is taking over with all that needs to be done. Don’t know what happened to a lot of the medical profession. I’ll give the guy the benefit of the doubt, could have been an emergency, the whole wait and all makes me think that. After the biopsy the same doctor took the time and called us at home so …
Fair play, G. So I will be generous as well in that assumption.💕
Pa ❣️❣️❣️
I will pray on your news.
———————————-
I found this an interesting site.
https://www.cancercenter.com/adenocarcinoma
Also:
Use the lotion they provide.
Ask for it if not offered.
-It really helps!
This one is in the lungs Patience but I’ll check the site. Thank you!
Sorry to read that, GrandpaM
I got that news this past April. Sigmoid colon that spread onto the bladder.
Mine responded well to targeted radiation therapy, but, surgeons away from home (Seattle Cancer Care) wanted to shrink the mass even further. So, chemo 8x (session #2 was yesterday, and I’m on a 48 hour infusion via a pump carried in a fanny pack each time), and then an MRI/CT/PET scan to determine the feasibility of surgical intervention with interoperative radiation.
Other than some spots on the abdominal wall, no spread outside the immediate area.
G_d bless.
What hopeful news. I hope it continues to shrink to nothing. It sounds as if the possibility of that gets ever closer. Godspeed, daylightinalaska.🙏
Will pray for you. My SIL had a rectal cancer 2 years ago but after chemo and radiation that one is gone. She had at that time the spots in the lungs but now at least one seems to be going active.
Praying for God’s Devine Healing to flow within you Grandpa, from the top of your head to the soles of your feet. God bless you Grandpa.
Thank you, Eva!
Good afternoon Grandpa. Sorry to hear the results were not good. Keeping you all in my prayers. I know the Lord will help you all thru this. God Bless You.
Thank you Marti, we’ll take all the prayers that we can get. 🙂 One of the blessings in all this is that because of my SIL’s mild dementia her short term memory is for the most part not there (although it has improved and she surprises us plenty of times), so she is not sitting there worrying about it.
Amen.
In most things in life it is wise to pray for the best but be prepared for the worst. But in some, like this, one prays for the best and leaves it at that because the worst is unthinkable. I will pray for the best.
Good morning, Bet. I was really tired last night and forgot to post any music selections. Just realized this now, in fact. Not a biggie. I’m just not very good at multi-tasking . . . 🙂
I understand. I truly do. And I’m just glad to see your face this morning. It doesn’t matter if you miss your normal posts…just keeping a weather eye out for a friend.😘
Ditto 🇺🇸🤠🇺🇸
My favorites have always been the sun record recordings early Johnny tomorrow I will have some good cover artist for his material have a blessed day🇺🇸🙏🏻🇺🇸

13 September 2019 Eddie Money [Mahoney], American rock singer-songwriter (“Two Tickets To Paradise”; ‘Take Me Home Tonight”), dies of esophageal cancer at 70
13 September 2015 Gary Richrath, American guitarist and songwriter (REO Speedwagon), dies at 65
I did not know this about Gary Richrath.. REO Speedwagon was mainstream universal party music back in the day.. weekend parties.. field parties.. parking lot parties.. in-car parties.. party parties..
you couldn’t go wrong playing their 1977 “live” album “you get what you play for”.. or 1978’s “you can tune a piano but you can’t tuna fish”..
Ticket Stub Memories.. REO Speedwagon.. 1978.. their “you can tune a piano but you can’t tuna fish” tour.. I was there too..
R.I.P..
Walked in the door at 17:00. Leaving out again at 03:00 for a run up to Holland, MI and back.
Have fun! I know you love the road.
I posted this near the end of the day yesterday in the Open thread. But I really wanted to hear more of the thoughts of those who frequent this page on if this seems plausible to you. I don’t think many people saw it though. So if it’s not too bothersome, I would like to repost it one time in hopes of reading what fellow Treepers think and if you had already drawn the same conclusion?
“Maybe I’m late to the trough on this. Would love your feedback. So I am sure all of you have had a healthy skepticism of the official explanation for all aspects of 9/11. A lot of the truthers arguments(it was for the oil, there were no planes, steel doesn’t melt at jet fuel temp, etc.) I have always felt were weak.
Yet some elements of the truthers arguments are verifiable and withstand scrutiny. Like Posobiec notes an FBI informant paid for the hotel rooms for two of the hijackers…and the FBI hid this information from the public for many years. The decision to hide it made by one Robert Mueller.
So for me, I accept as the plausible that there were real terrorists, but possibly aided and abetted by CIA/FBI et. al. When we examine their behavior in the last 6 years. When we think about Benghazi. If you look at the latesy evidence unfolding about JFK(go look up Emerald Robinson’s 4 posts or so based on an upcoming book to see what I mean)…it’s pretty clear they would go as far as assassinations and treason to achieve their goals. They see Amsrican Government as the attachments on the ends of their strings while they control the outcomes.
With that background. If we ask why would they facilitate 9/11(this is just a thought excursion, using an assumption that they were involved) then WHY would they do it? Could not just be to secure an Iraq war and for the profit of the Military Industrial Complex. Those might have been ancillary benefits, but I do not buy them as the primary motive. What then?
Now overlay that question with who came to power after Bush. Questioning possibly perhaps the legitimacy of their election at all. Then look at what that individual did to weaponize the intel levers of control. I think the plausible answer is right there.
His actions created a vehicle for potential permanent control of the citizens of not only the United States, but indeed the West. And yet…what he achieved in weaponizing the Intel Agencies to target only one side would not have been possible without the preceding creation of the structures that he would then corrupt.
I think you can see it now also yes? If they had a hand in facilitating the act of 9/11, looking at their actions in the aftermath…the main motive is now obvious: The Patriot Act.”
There is this great movie, “Snowden” you might enjoy, widely distributed. Most people now cover the camera on their computer with tape.
My laptop computer is only open when I am using it, and I only use it for work. Otherwise I close it so the camera is looking at nothing but the side with the keyboard. My desktop does not have a webcam attached. However…I would be more concerned about cell phone camera/microphone being hacked.
What about your cellphone?
“long kiss goodnight” movie.
“Its a FUNDRAISER”!
It wasn’t JUST the Patriot act, it opened up the coffers.
A whole new industry was created, of intel/security contractors, to the company making the airport scanners (Chertof).
MASSIVE cash cow…
And yes, I part company with Sundance on this, or at least how he presents it.
He never makes assertions he can’t back up with factual evidence, which is right and proper, but I am under no such restrictions.
I am convinced Bush jr intentionally paved the way for the weoponisation that Obama did.
Mueller appointed to head the FBI, brought in weismann and comey to 7th floor, and instituted “7 and out” to purge ideologically non compatible types, and signed MOU with CIA,..
And yes, I continue to believe the planes brought down the buildings, but the FBI/CIA facilitated the operation.
Haven’t seen Sundance’s presentation on 9/11 or if I did it’s been many years and I forget what conclusions he drew. He can only go with factually supported assertions because his message and information is too important to allow others to dismiss it by claiming he lies about everything or is simply a conspiracy theorist. I can understand that, but as you and I are not political influencers with an impact, I think it’s fair to speculate, albeit within reason.
Long kiss Goodnight with Samuel L. Jackson or a different movie with same name?
Covid has shown us that the US Government does not have a problem with killing off millions of US Citizens.
The trust is gone.
More importantly, COVID has shown them how easy it is to control every aspect of our lives, from not having TP to wipe our butts to not being able to practice our faith or teach our children, or gather with family or care for our sick and elderly.
Jet fuel cannot melt steel beams
Yes, and following the attack on the Towers came war.
The Iraq war never made sense to me. either.It was as if Bush jr. was finishing off Sadam Hussein for his father for some twisted reason. He had nothing to do with 9/11.
Again, remember the Gulf War of H.W. Bush? All of these wars are for what reason? Money? Certainly not in our National interest.
I supported the Bush family and now I despise them as traitors along with the late comer, Liz Cheney. Their arguments about “democracy” do not ring true, do they?
Homeland Security and the Patriot Act. They put the stranglehold on us and name it for “homeland” and “patriot” instead of what it is , globalist treachery.
I have a folded post it note over mine.
What an excellent comment to ponder.
Those who are certain that exposure is our answer. What better exposure than a Hollywood production? Followed by media and an American seeking asylum and now living in Russia? What did this “exposure” get us? What did we do? Put tape on our monitors and shut our laptops.
True. Why have we allowed this at all? Because the technology is beyond what we can understand. We need to walk away from it all to escape it. No cell phone. No smart appliances. No FBI/CIA. How do we do it? Starve the beast by walking away from the technology?
That would be a solution, but not doable. Again, I pull up to 30,000 ft. Long before tech, we had government’s unchecked overreach. The real disease is not being addressed, centralized power. Tech is only the metastasis.
It took over a hundred years to make us comfy and dependent. Wish there was an easy answer or solution. I can only see what has not/does not work.
Concur that it was the Patriot Act. And remember, before 9/11 there was NO Department of Homeland Security.
Lot of questions remain unanswered to this day, like why was Building 7 collapsed? What was in Building 7? What was under Building 7?
We needed to go to war with the Taliban harboring Al Queda in Afghanistan, but Iraq had NOTHING to do with the attack on 9/11 and was a War of convenience because George W. Bush had a grudge against or felt insulted / humiliated by Sadam Hussein or that his dad had failed to complete the overthrow of Iraq (or something, who knows).
I was just looking it up and the Patriot Act (signed into law 10/24/2001) did not create DHS.
prior to the signing, 10/8/2001, Bush created the Homeland Security Council and the Office of Homeland Security, appointing Governor Ridge to run them.
Bush thought that was all that was needed. But he couldn’t corral the rest of the IC. So Bush changed his mind and asked Congress to create DHS, which they did in the Homeland Security Act of 2002. (I think Congress had been pushing for this and using embarrassments to get Bush to go along.)
The IRTPA of 2004 created the DNI and expanded FBI surveillance powers even further.
Interesting observations and theory. I pull back a bit further and look. Our government, TPTB have always been working behind the scenes and keeping secrets that we can only speculate about. Did they know about the early morning attack on Pearl Harbor? Who killed JFK? Who shot up Las Vegas? Still waiting on that last one.
Who has the answers? Why do they ALL hide it from us?
It may be my age, but after years of reading the most fascinating analysis, I am played out on the intelligent, but so far, unverifiable theories and more importantly,the lack of solutions or actions.
The latest is centered around the Mar a Lago raid. I am not really sure what outcome anyone expects, especially after bearing witness to real events in real time. There seems to be some expectation of justice or “winning”. I do not understand why. Was justice carried out for Spying on Trump? The fabrication of Russia? Mueller? The impeachment sham? This all happened while our POTUS held office. Surely he held more power then, not now. They came away winning those battles, not Trump, not us. He survived them, but he did not win. Any “winning” that I see is subjective rationalization or futuristic hopium.
What I see at this point is cyclical patterns that have brought about a centralized power (started long before Patriot Act) that continues to branch out further, gain speed and cause utter destruction to all in it’s path. Like a hurricane, and like the waves, our latest outrage will rise and fall and roll back into the ocean with the rest of them.
All the theories, analysis, exposure, conversation and even the election of the people’s POTUS has not altered our path. Everything has an expiration date.
As reported by Mark Steyn in one of his superb books, though which I cannot remember….
Who was it who signed off on the visas for the hijackers?
John Brennan, Muslim convert, when he was Chief of Station in Saudi Arabia.
That seems to me to be a pretty big tell.
The patriot act was written before 9/11 and it never would have passed without a major catalyst.
But don’t forget that there was a dump truck full of gold and an escort vehicle found abandoned in the tunnels under the trade center complex. They found 1 truck full of gold but there was a lot more gold that supposedly melted into thin air that day. Many many tons of gold disappeared from wtc complex on 9/11. Money is very motivating
To have all this data is really tempting. It could be used for good. It could be a powerful weapon of tyranny. It is a tool, and how it is used depends entirely on the character and motive of the persons wielding it.
Software was designed by Dennis Montgomery, called Thin Thread. Using Thin Thread, it would be possible to preserve the fourth amendment rights of users of the internet, and still crunch metadata for national security.
Thin Thread was rejected by our government shortly before 9/11. Then came the Patriot Act.

Dilemma, you’re on to something there. If you search the web for the interview with Judge Joe Brown when he talks about Obummer and Bush Sr it depends on what search engine you use. If you look it up on google you get nothing on the first few pages. If you look it up on duck duck go you’ll find a 3 minute interview, BUT if you look it up on the Brave search engine you’ll get the whole 9 minute interview. I switched all of my browsing and searching to Brave. They have a search engine and a browser. They don’t track you. Use Brave for everything and you’ll get the most popular searches first without the tracking and censorship. Blessings!
Many structural engineers opined that based on their studies of the twin towers, the pancake collapse was impossible without controlled demolition charges placed in specified locations within each building. There was no time to accomplish that ***after*** the planes struck the buildings.
The one tower was struck near a corner, which, if jet fuel fires could melt vertical structural steel as has been the government story, would have eventually caused the structure above that to topple over towards that side. But each tower collapsed straight down, with perfectly good steel giving way despite not having been damaged by the aircraft impact.
Where are the high resolution videos of the buildings that showed the collapse of each tower? Don’t assume none exist. It is certain that high quality cameras with excellent lenses were focused on those buildings soon after each impact by aircraft.

After Surrender – What
I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to do. — John 17:4
Surrender is not the surrender of the external life, but of the will; when that is done, all is done. There are very few crises in life; the great crisis is the surrender of the will. God never crushes a man’s will into surrender, He never beseeches him, He waits until the man yields up his will to Him. That battle never needs to be re-fought.
Surrender for Deliverance. “Come unto Me,…and I will give you rest.” It is after we have begun to experience what salvation means that we surrender our wills to Jesus for rest. Whatever is perplexing heart or mind is a call to the will — “Come unto Me.” It is a voluntary coming.
Surrender for Devotion. “If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself.” The surrender here is of my self to Jesus, my self with His rest at the heart of it. “If you would be My disciple, give up your right to yourself to Me.” Then the remainder of the life is nothing but the manifestation of this surrender. When once the surrender has taken place we never need “suppose” anything. We do not need to care what our circumstances are, Jesus is amply sufficient.
Surrender for Death (John 21:18-19). “…another shall gird thee.” Have you learned what it means to be bound for death? Beware of a surrender which you make to God in an ecstasy; you are apt to take it back again. It is a question of being united with Jesus in His death until nothing ever appeals to you that did not appeal to Him.
After surrender — what? The whole of the life after surrender is an aspiration for unbroken communion with God.
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
For the past three hundred years men have been pointing out how similar Jesus Christ’s teachings are to other good teachings. We have to remember that Christianity, if it is not a supernatural miracle, is a sham.

If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. John 7:37
My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God. Psa. 84:2
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 where no water is; to see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. Psa. 63:1, 2
Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Isa. 55:1
The Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. Rev. 22:17
Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. John 4:14
My blood is drink indeed. John 6:55
Eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved. Song 5:1
EVENING
Ye are the salt of the earth. Matt. 5:13
That which is not corruptible. I Pet. 3:4
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever. I Pet. 1:23
He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. John 11:25
The children of God, being the children of the resurrection. Luke 20:36
The uncorruptible God. Rom. 1:23
If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Rom. 8:9-11
It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption. I Cor. 15:42
Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another. Mark 9:50
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. Eph. 4:29

They’ll say anything and no matter how blatant the lie, the “press” will take them seriously.
The “press” is no longer a viable term encompassing the former media.
There is a very small segment that could be called the “free press” and the rest ought to be called the SOP– the State Owned Propaganda – or some other equally demeaning term. Perhaps MOD – the Ministry of Deceit.
Have a great day!

I drop in on this thread every day around 6-7 AM and look forward to it every day. I enjoy it a lot. But it bothers me when I do not see postings from Garrison. I hope he is well. I have been praying for him.
Garrison just lost his wife.
I am well aware of that, thanks.
He posted upthread that he was just too tired last night. Certainly understandable. I have fallen asleep most nights by the time the new Open Thread is posted.

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.

In Australia, 1000 schools are introducing snacks made from cricket powder. Insects are full of Chitin, indigestible by humans…and parasites. Whether or not those parasites or remnants of them exist in this Schwab, Gates et al endorsed, soon to be forced powder, we do not yet know.
Vaxxxxes are being required for our precious children to to to school in many districts.
Vile pornography, mutilations, and sexually explicit, immoral drag shows aimed at children are being sponsored by institutions who should know better….all of this is targeting our children.
All our children are being specifically targeted by evil and the godless because they are closest to our Lord who loves them.
Parents MUST start binge watching their children, instead of their phones and social media.
Lord, we ask for your loving protection of our most precious gifts from You. Awaken please their parents to the forces that want them for their own. Make us worthy and give us the strength to protect them from all who seek to defile our beloved children.
We as parents and grandparents must stand four square between our littlest and those who mean them irreparable harm. And please protect us while we do so. Almighty God, be with us in our battles against the foul intents of all depraved institutions and people, no matter where we find them or who they are.
Amen, Bet!
Amen!!
Amen.
Over at BBC, there is a photo of the King with a person in the background…..Holding a Corgi….doesn’t matter who’s it is….She can’t be gone! (I know poor humor on my part, my Brit relatives laugh at me due to my ‘upstart’ attitudes…)

Details! The route my Samsara and my paper trip ticket says I’m running is CH3OSLS02
The route I am actually running is CH3OSLS01.
Both pickup and deliver at the same places but at different times. When the arrival times on my trip ticket and Samsara did not match up I started asking questions and got it straightened out.
Sometimes I get tired of covering dispatch’s ass. But that’s what you get when you have dispatchers and route planners getting paid about 1/2 of what drivers do.
Good on you, rah!
-Enjoy the ride ❤️
Bet it didn’t used to be this way, rah. I tell my grands near me, the two boys doing fast food jobs, that no matter what they do, big or small, their name is on it.
surgery went well
pressure down to 5 this morning
can’t see real well
touch typing helps
thanks for the prayers and well wishes
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Good deal–on my last procedure which was a recon on a bleb took about 3 weeks to get back to normal–in the meantime I used the inversion feature on the computer–reverse black and white. Crank up the font on the Kindle. Glad to see you had a good outcome.
Praise the Lord and continued prayers!
Great! The prognosis is?
So glad to hear this. Praying that the pressure continues to go down. Thank you God for watching over ms. God Bless You.
Oh how wonderful!!! I am assuming this is a thing which is an improvement, and I hope it continues.
So happy, ms Idaho, to see your update. Prayers continuing. 🙏💕
reply to all your wonderful well wishes and prayers
This evening I can see almost as well as before the surgery – which was not great
re: rah’s question: prognosis
The problem has been pressure in the eye with the possibility / probability of damaging the optic nerve – permanent loss – as I’m sure you know.
Omni surgery is explained as working 3 ways to improve the drainage of fluid that for whatever reason cannot drain properly. Pressure before surgery as high as 30. follow up visit this morning measured at 5. By that measure SUCCESS
Question is – was the optic nerve damaged? if so, how bad? Regeneration (they say) is not possible. A little blood in the eye and some swelling (you are not surprised are you?) By some estimates it will take weeks to know the answer. Will the fluid build again? is the nerve damaged.
I have explored and discovered another problem not recognized by many doctors. I have low blood pressure. The concern (if you want to research) is actually about diastolic pressure. BP is essential to get nutrients into all organs, but especially the brain, the eye and the optic nerve. Low BP can be a big problem.
Articles I found revealed that many patients treated for high BP (not me) are over medicated and their pressure, especiaally diastolic, is too low. If the person is at risk for glaucoma it is suggested they have a talk with their doctor.
In my case our family has low BP. Doctors pat us on the head – oh, you are so lucky. But then i got to looking- nearly every nutritional I was taking had the property of lowering BP. In addition, my MD put me on a beta blocker (for other reasons) It also lowers BP.
So for the past several weeks I have been on a mission to lower eye pressure and raise BP. Too low is below 90/60. Mine is now running systolic below 120 and above 90. Diastolic varies but mostly in the mid 70s
Check it out – there is almost nothing you can do to raise BP – except stop trying to lower it.
If you know anything about Essential Oils, we came up with some that (might) help raise BP – plus things like licorice tea. There are also reports of EO s preventing or reversing glaucoma. Suspicious cat acknowledges that the ability to help depends on the diagnosis (open angle) and the cause. WHY did the eye suddenly decide not to drain?
Now you know what I know. What was worrysome to me was the speed with which this happened. The greying out of my vision started in April. PS – research I found does not show that as an alert for glaucoma
Thanks again for your prayers and well wishes
We will wait and pray that time will tell that your operation was successful Ms. Idaho.Blessings…
Sen. Josh Hawley | The Biblical Revolution | NatCon 3 Miami (28 mins)
I got fed up with the old construction and so I tried a new route with other construction today. Going up Holland, MI I went the usual way. right up US-31 but at Holland where US 31 and I-196 split US 31 is closed and has been for some time. So I follow I-196 to the exit for Lincoln Ave. and take that to the Blue Star hwy and that takes me right to the road I need.
But coming out I can’t backtrack because the ramp to the Blue Star is closed.
Now times before I went through a bunch of crap to get back to the Blue Star but this time I said the heck with it and headed east using Hwy 40 and then Hwy 18 to get to US 131 and took it south to I-94 east to I-69 south. Of course the exit from I-94 east to I-69 south is also closed but it is a clover leaf so one just gets off on the exit to I-69 north then swings on I-94 west to get off on the exit for I-69 south coming the other way. It’s simpler than it sounds. Although I added a few miles to the return trip it was actually about as fast since there are no lights on I-69 and it’s 65 mph speed limit all the way.
Today was Drivers appreciation day at Carter Express. I got a nice big cooler bag. And in that bag was:
A safety yellow sweat shirt with company logo
A black T-shirt with company logo
A large terminal sipper cup with company logo
A large plastic noninsulated sipper cup with company logo
A cheap pair of sunglasses with company logo
A large bottle of hand sanitizer the proceeds of which go to the truckers relief fund (Hand sanitizer works darn well taking grease and oil off the hands too)
A little thing of sun screen
And some various snacks.
I now have about a dozen Carter T-shirts of various colors. They buy good ones that last and are very comfortable.
I still have and use the gift I got at my first drivers appreciation which is a hard sided locker bag. I have had it and used it for 15 years now. I still have the nice Leatherman I got one year and the set of nice steak knives I got another year.
have i got a long way ..
have i got a long way ..
have i got a long way , to run …
have i got a long way , to run …
