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 †

Here’s a fine looking fellow, dressed in His Sunday best.
Good morning Bet! Have a blessed Palm Sunday! Left you a message last night towards the end of the OT. ❤️😍
Good morn, dear brother. I think I saw it and answered. Unless you saw my reply and replied yourself again. I will check💕
Yes…I replied but it was late and I see a couple of hours after you first posted. 💕
I’ll go and check it out. Busy day with church and then taking pictures in the bluebonnets with the 3 youngest grands and great grandma. 🙂
Yes
But will he behave
☘️
Or will he
i was wondering if that cat would snap at the butterfly. maybe , but just for fun
Surely not!!
no
ok
good
Beautiful picture. Hopefully kitty recognizes the lethalness of the pretty Monarch and merely revels in its beauty without taking a bite. I’m sure a gentle kiss on the nose by the butterfly would be most satisfying and sufficient.
Blessed evening, Betsy, GrandpaM, and Molonlabe.
Hello Fellow Treepers,

Back at ya, phoenix! Hosanna comes from Hoshea nah, which means Save us now, and conveys the meaning of beseeching , humbly crying out to the Lord.
Have a very blessed Sunday, Treeper friends. As I’ve said so many times before—-always know that Our Dear Lord loves us so. His love is infinite.
Of late I’ve been thinking about experiencing His forgiveness. When you ask for forgiveness, what happens? The bottom line is this: Our Lord is waiting for us to come to Him. If we want forgiveness we have to take the first step. That first step can be as simple as saying “I’m sorry” and meaning it within our hearts.
But what happens—how do we know? That’s where faith comes in. If you are a strong believer then you already know that His Presence is always with us. So, for those of us who believe, asking forgiveness simply connects us to the main line. When we do this He will always hear us.
But what if you aren’t sure if you actually believe? As I said, our Lord’s love is infinite. He knows quite well how imperfect we are. So, even if you aren’t completely comfortable, even if you aren’t quite sure . . . just saying “Lord I’m sorry, please forgive me” opens the door to belief in Him. Do this simple thing and you’re in. Honest.

Thanks Garrison. Happy Sunday!

Gracious Sunday, 1530.
Good morning Garrison. I posted a video below that you might like. Don’t know if you’ve already seen it. It’s almost an hour long; various interviews with Andres Segovia along with some of his concerts.
Edit: video’s above my reply.
Good morning, dear Joe. I’ll add my Segovia, an original recording.

Good afternoon GrandpaM.
Yep. That’s a historic video. Segovia is still the greatest classical guitarist . . . ever. 🙂
So beautifully said, dear Garrison. Simple, humble words…”Lord, forgive me”.
Knock, and the door shall be opened. Amen🙏🏻

Good morning Garrison! Everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved.
Mornin’ Gramps. Yep. Very true. 🙂
Here are some rock N roll anthems from back-in-the-day. You kinda had to be there . . .
Does anybody remember the Vulcan Gas Company in downtown back-in-the-day Austin? As I recall it was one of the first clubs to have an actual psychedelic light show. Far out, man . . .
Waaay back in the day. Thanks Garrison.

From back in the day:
Feeling sentimental, and sleepless…
Thanks for the memories.
Good tunes.
The Phil Specter arrangement for The Crystals is pure brilliance……….and immortalized for ever by Scorsese……….
JESUS CHRIST ENTERS INTO JERUSALEM
Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him. Therefore Mary took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Jesus’s feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said, “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?” Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it. But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial. For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
A large crowd therefore of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead. But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also, because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”
Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written, “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.” His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead was testifying about it. For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign. The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
Now there were certain Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast. These, therefore, came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.” Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit. He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.
“Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time?’ But I came to this time for this cause. Father, glorify your name!”
Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.”
— John 12: 1-28
ALL GLORY, LAUD, AND HONOR
Good morning 1530! This passage reminded me that Andrew kept bringing people to Jesus. He brought the boy that had the loaves and fishes. Here he is bringing the Greeks to Jesus.
Have a blessed Palm Sunday.
Thanks, GrandpaM. You too.
. . . but deliver us from the Evil One.

Listen…and be at peace, my beloved family.
This morning I woke up distressed about all the madness in our world. From Brazil to the shores of this great land we call the United States of America, it seems that everything is jilted and out of whack to say the least.
Then, I remembered a nice saying that is printed on an old business card that I haven’t thrown away. It goes like this, “But for the Bible, we could not know right from wrong. All things most desirable for man’s welfare, are to be found portrayed in it” – Abraham Lincoln
I focus on what is said and not necessarily on who said it.
I realized this morning that the Bible has a message to ease my pain at seeing my country, the USA, shrink and die. This is true for the entire world also.
I will shun those who engage in behavior that is not God pleasing. Simple…not! The evil that is being portrayed before our very eyes stays alive because we honor it when we give it wings.
Most children are still innocent and need to hear God’s word and need to understand right from wrong. I must teach him, my grandson, about right behavior and thoughts and help him understand wrong when it is appropriate to do so. I must not dwell on the dark side of human nature and yet, that is about all we hear in every corner of the world today. So many teachable moments and yet, we forget to explain why something is wrong and our emotions spew forth with anger, not understanding that the Devil is alive and well. Shun him and his works.
We need to remember that most Christians know the difference between good and evil. I stand with good Christians.
In order for one to ask for forgiveness, one must understand what it is that they have done wrong. Or, they must understand why an “ideology” that is being promoted in this world is wrong in the eyes of God.
The Bible is our reference, the word, and the way.
How wonderful that your grandson has you in his life, to stand watch over him. To be an earthly guiding light for him. Almighty God has been merciful to us that we were near our three grands who, as it turned out, needed us the most out of our nine.
They are teenagers now. I am so grateful He placed us here, in the same position you are now. God be with all of you who will teach and guide him and act as an impenetrable shield against the ugly ungodliness which we know wants what is not its.
Amen! In a few minutes I am going to drive 15 miles to meet my almost 8 yo grandson and his mom. He goes to church with us almost every Sunday and is very willing. Praise the Lord!
You and your beloved are the biggest blessing in Nipper’s young life, dear G. It fills my heart with joy to know you are there with him…and that you have the joy of watching him grow into the fine young man I know he will be.😘

And Praised the Lord. We got our power back on just 15 minutes ago.
Feeling your relief. Superb!!
After this summer I will not have to worry about it anymore. I have already been shopping for a whole house standby generator running off natural gas. That was the 6th time this year already we have lost power at our house and I’m sick of it!
When we lose power we lose water, the water heater, and the stove, which are all 220V and my portable generator can’t handle. Besides it is a pain to drag out my generator and run the cords to save my food in the fridge, run a couple lights and the TVs.
GrandpaM ordered his last year, and he’s still waiting.
The UK runs all their electrics on 220v…everything. Lamps, washing machines, everything.
My husband’s sister accidentally came into contact and he had to knock her off the wall. Not pull…knock. Thank goodness he was standing right there when she did it.
Hopefully you’ll find the right one soon. (More crossed fingers, which I seem to be doing a lot of today.)
Thanksgiving prayers and blessings for all the electrical power restorers, the brave people who go out in the chaos and bring electrical power back to the city. We got our power back last night at 9:pm. Went off Friday night at 10:pm, when the storm hit. The freezers were still frozen and we didn’t loose any foods. My neighborhood looks like a war zone; many streets are closed; cars and some houses crushed from fallen trees. Will take some time to cut up and haul off those big trees; some 80-100 years old.
Oh gosh, Betty!! God bless all who are looking at the devastation, and wondering where on earth to start. No loss of life I am praying. 🙏🏻
In my area part of the reason they’re so busy is because the utility company refuses to cut the trees and limbs back from the lines. I think part of the problem is that out here we’re like the red headed step children. We pay for the service through the Anderson City Utilities but we are outside the city limits.
This was issued just 17 minutes ago for today from the NWS. Texans and those to the east check it out!
Yes!
NOAA has the NWS which is National Weather Service and part of the NWS is the Storm Prediction Center and that is the source for that map.
If you look further into the Storm Prediction Center Website you will also find the areas where there is a potential for heavy hail and for wildfires.

This is brilliant.
To protest the indictment of Trump, please consider participating in a general strike/sickout/blue flu on Tuesday.
This could also include not purchasing anything on that day.
Thank you.
We do need to unite and send a message.
Does anyone see this persecution of President Trump as a symbol of what Jesus had to endure in this season of Lent? May the Lord work his wonders with this man we recognize as different and give him peace.
I think their plan is to fire one indictment after another at him during the campaign season. Georgia will be next one to go after him but like Sundance said, timing is everythng.
Waiting for the gag order. They want him to shut up.
What these corrupt entities don’t remember is that we know President Trump. He has four year form. He is not an unknown quantity.
If they believe a gag order will make any difference to his support, their bubble walls are truly air tight.
Waiting for the gag order. They want him to shut up.
yeah, they saw PresTrump uncork a couple rallies recently and thought “oh sh1t”

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Dear brethren (brothers and sisters),
since the beginning of Lent until now
we have prepared our hearts by penance and charitable works.
Today we gather together to herald with the whole Church
the beginning of the celebration
of our Lord’s Paschal Mystery,
that is to say, of his Passion and Resurrection.
For it was to accomplish this mystery
that he entered his own city of Jerusalem.
Therefore, with all faith and devotion,
let us commemorate
the Lord’s entry into the city for our salvation,
following in his footsteps,
so that, being made by his grace partakers of the Cross,
we may have a share also in his Resurrection and in his life. Amen.

Amen.

JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
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.
My favorite prayer for these times!🙏🔧💕
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
Bless-ed Palm Sunday, dear duchess and dearest friend.
I adore that you’re scriptures have magnified the Light.
As we all follow that brightest Light, let our little lights shine for others.😘

How lovely, Molon – Are those from your garden?
I do not have any in my gardens – may have to change that. – they are so beautiful!!!
Thanks for the eye candy!!! 🪴🌹🌼
yes . those are mine

they came with the place
im glad they did
Mornin’ all!
Who ever thought in our wildest imaginings this is what we’d be…but there is no denying that is what we’ve become.
“Ill Follow The Sun”……………..Beatles. 1964. Credited to McCartney-Lennon; but actually written by Paul who was 16 at the time……….sweet harmonics, simple lyrics, simply sublime music.
Putting this lovely chappy here, a Blue Tit, because as often as we talk of birds and supply examples, I have never found a good photo of the ones which used to festoon our trees where we lived in Wales. So many of these little, colourful, happy looking birds.
Well here is one…so good to see him😊
Stunningly gorgeous Bet! A Welsh version of our beloved Chickadees. Ty for posting it. I hope you & your family are well and my prayers and best wishes to you all.
See below! Just put the finishing touches on a longer post to you.😉
Isn’t he sweet? And yes. Very similar.
What happened to the Elon Musk supports Desantis article?
I too saw it disappear last night. No idea
Good afternoon and a Bless-ed Palm Sunday, my dear friend. Thank you for this lovely St Francis. I endeavour to look after every living creature who crosses our path, no matter how small or unseen. Including the frog I heard nearby last night. No access to water, so I rummaged around for a shallow container. Placed it in the undergrowth. Hope he found it (crossed fingers😊).
Fierce times we are enduring. I do pray Almighty God will have mercy on our wretched state and will hear the prayers of his flock. Easter already! So much hope every year but especially this one.
We are dead centre of expected rough weather this afternoon. The wind is whipping up…
I pray you have been out of the line of fire and will continue to stay so💕
You are the best Bet. Ty. I’ve been rescuing since a little kid helping my dear grandma with fallen/abandoned nestlings.
You have such a big heart, dear friend. So big I am surprised you can hold it within you.😘🙏🏻
HolyLandSite video all about the area of and around the Dead Sea! Amazing how The Lord leaves us so many, many signs!!!
Blessed are you oh Lord our God! King of the UNIVERSE! Come Lord Jesus, make us ready to serve till the end.

We are running only 25 behind the inflation adjusted record for this date:
I would bet that after Tuesday/Wednesday we will be well above the record for that date.
Good afternoon
Treepers
Get outside and play
Could be a good way
☘️ To have a good day
Gorgeous Pics, Molon – Thanks!!!
While Texas averages far more tornadoes per year than any other state (139) with Kansas 2nd (84) and Oklahoma 3rd (66).
In tornadoes per 10,000 sq. mile Texas is way down the list. Mississippi is 1st with 12, Alabama and Kansas tie for 2nd with 11, and Illinois has 10. Texas only has 5.
In average fatalities per year from tornadoes Alabama is 1st with 14, Missouri is 2nd with 8, and Tennesse is 3rd with 7. Texas in the middle of the pack with 4.

What a beauty. My greatest dog in the world was part along with Corgi/German Shepherd/Beagle. I hold a special place for Collie/Shephards/Corgi’s. Dog’s are truly special
What a combination! No matter how many n dogs we love, there is always that one.❤ and sadly 💔
Corgis are so cool. you must have more than one at a time, they do well in pairs. little legs they have . beautiful coats. the seem like collies only smaller. personality , oh yes

Boston Lighthouse in Boston Harbor, Massachusetts, US
Light of The World – Lauren Daigle
be the light
Gorgeous. I love New England. Excellent birding especially in winter. Also love the architecture many of it ancient if you get my drift.
King Eider’s males. Though uncommon to rare in New England, can be found every winter. Their feathers are used to stuff pillows and jackets-Eider Down. I saw them in Massachusetts & NJ at the famous lighthouse where the Harlequin’s show up every winter.
Massachusetts State House, Boston at night
Colkitto . this is the state house, nice building. to the left of it is where the governors house is. have been in both many many times. the Governers house kitchen is huge. thing I remember most is this pantry they had in the kitchen; it had all booze in it. a big walk in booze cabinet. i was young. i have been in hundreds of different addresses throughout boston. chestnut hill , beacon street , newbury st , acorn st . rich rich people’s homes. I been everywhere in town, on the water also. worked in downtown boston area for many many years . every place you can think of where there was something going on , where lots of people went to , that were you’d find me. i worked in dozens and dozens of hot spots . 25 state st . milk st . all the concert halls and music venues. nightclubs. Lansdown st , Huntington ave ,dining rooms , hotels . i never was at one spot . always going from here to there , wherever the people with money where i went. the buildings . many beautiful buildings. symphony hall was my favorite place though. nice building. many times, I have been under the building, bottom floor, lots went on down there. the best part down under the stage was when the whole orchestra got up and started the walk to go up and on the stage. it was a great feeling. you could feel the energy of the room above , it was heavy .some seriously special people all smiling and filled with an energy that can’t be described. Holding their instruments like they were made of pure gold. the walk felt like slow motion. been there. done that. I didn’t play but I’ve walked that walk with them. have helped out Seiji o and also yo-yo ma. was fun being with them. they both were not the most personable type. but I made em smile a few times. yo yo ma ., smoked a lot. before during and after he played. he didn’t talk to anybody but this one gal, and me, when I was there. mostly things like, gimme that ash tray, gimme a light. get me another, that type of thing. whatever. he smelled like a big cig.
the music hall was another good place.
boston
stories , i got a million of em
oh brother what a town
things have changed since then
some of the places i have worked at im not proud of ,but that was a different time, now.
here I am, in the tree, babbling.
just sharing friends
just sharing
Not babbling at all, molon.
Sharing your life! Oh gosh and what a life! Don’t stop ever, dear friend. I am gripped by your stories. Wonderful is not an adequate enough word.
Looking forward to some more chapters to come😘
Bett
I’m so glad you don’t think it strange that i share these things.
I think Bett, you would like the governor’s house. the kitchen, huge, with a big, massive butcher block island in the middle. open on one side which led to the library and dining room. the library had one big big wall, total bookshelf, top to bottom, hundreds of books. it was pretty cool. the dining room had a sweet table. the floors were originals where possible and made much noise when you walked on em. dark dark floors . it all over-looked boston common.
Ray Flynn was there when i was there. just thought of it . it was not the governors mansion. it was something else, maybe mayor’s mansion. Ray was the mayor. I don’t know what they called it, it was right next to the statehouse. creaky floors
I worked with many politicians, some, you dont want to know. but I can tell you, all of them I’ve ever worked with, they really don’t care about the D or the R.
… peace friend

Alexandra Trusova – Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini – Rachmaninoff
Beautifully articulated – Oh, My!!!!
Thanks so much for sharing, Molon!!!
Made my day!!! You have no idea how precious this performance is to me!!!
🧚🏻♀️ 🧚🏻♀️ 🧚🏻♀️ 💖💖💖. 🌼🌼🌼
duchess, if Rachmaninoff were known for one work alone, I’m betting it is this one. A romantic composition if never I heard one.💕
Amen goes right there, Bet!!! ❤️🧚🏻♀️❤️
a precious performance it was . i love how she set each move up . you could see her swiftly pick up speed , then pull them off perfectly. the first move was the best. don’t know what you call it, but she does a big spin then lands another right after it, right at the beginning.it was like a four spinner roo then a three spin . they got names for em , ive no clue , the names of the moves .
rach and the violin
she nailed it
duchess…
… peace in Christ Sister
that it meant something to you
that’s precious
Perfect! Happy 150th, Maestro.
