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 †

Good morning, Doc. What to say…this is beautiful and uplifting. I think everyone here holds out a lit candle for others who have been to this thread, our place of loving refuge.
Lucky your patients who have come to you for physical healing where you can. I suspect they receive so much more…which is a vital part of guiding people back to renewed health. Blessings always to you, good sir.

STill no rain here at my central Indiana home. I’ve finished lunch so I’m going to get that ottoman set up and then go outside and rake some grass cuttings, get the water hoses out and hooked up, and possibly do some other stuff outside if I still feel like it.
Good time to turn soil and stop the runners of invasive ground cover .
Good evening Patience! ❤️
Helped Sherry with cleaning leaves out and doing the weeding in a flower bed up next to the back of the house. Hoses hooked up, clippings in the burn ring, bug zapper hooked up, Wasps fogged in the two sheds, also sent a boring bee to bee heaven, and lawn furniture with umbrellas set up on the deck. Plenty more to do, but we put a dent in it.
Both lower legs rubbed down with MooGoo. After I finish this big glass of ice water, I’m laying down and stretching out.
Hi rah, last night around 1:30 a nice storm blew through San Antonio with a lot of thunder and rain. The house here was shaking. Unfortunately, didn’t get any rain at home which is about 45 miles North of San Antonio as the crow flies.
Right off I-35? Been up and down that busy stretch of road between Austin and San Antonio many more times than I can remember. But sounds like your off 281.
West of 281 , close to Luckenbach. I try to avoid I-35 as much as possible.
The current situation & trends in society are certainly alarming. It is easy to become overwhelmed. I’d have to agree with John MacArthur’s sermon below. America is under judgement by God right now. We’ve turned our back on God and his natural law, now we delve into chaos.
Now more than ever God wants his people to grow bold in their faith and proclaim the truth. As John tells us, love and truth are synonymous. Too many “Christians” afraid of losing their corporate gigs and not being invited to the neighborhood barbeque. One day sooner than we all imagine each of us will appear before the Lord with every moment of our lives judged. No action, no thought left unnoticed. No excuses. I find myself contemplating this eventual moment more and more.
The harsh reality that many, especially secular conservatives have a hard time accepting is the only way for the United States of America to remain is for the nation to abruptly halt course and seismically shift its adherence back towards God. Even then it may be too late. Would God be unjustified in destroying this Sodom nation? He would not be unjustified.
Brothers and Sisters, I earnestly hope each of you is spending time with the Lord and sharing his word. God Bless.

I attended a memorial service this morning in New Suffolk NY where the first submarine was built and launched in 1900. The submariners gather there every year to commemorate those who were lost at sea during WW 1 and2. It was a very moving ceremony and reminded me of how great our country was and can continue to be if we let it.
Wasn’t the Hunley the first submarine?

If it wasn’t the first, it was the first to sink an enemy ship. Too bad it didn’t survive.
Blue Oyster Cult – Astronomy
Now this was interesting.. especially with the visuals..I had to look up who they were…interesting they come from further out on Long Island than where I use to live … I am interested in the heavens.. space etc..thanks for another experience learned..😀👍

Blue Oyster Cult was a rock band way back when . The had a small “cult “ following.
There songs were unusual and the album art was always interesting.
I saw them a few times in Boston.
Rock music was a big part of my past. It was not all bad. The people I played with were all family people just like everyone else. Rock and Rollers were not all bad people . On the contrary , they are the nicest people in the world . Of course a certain
percent , maybe not so good . I’ve been around some bad actors but for the most part , musical people are magical.
People are good and bad
Music people are good people.

BOLG* The Son of Azog – The Hobbit
What do you think of the Rings Of Power series? the appendix from the Return of the King was always my favorite readings. First War against Sauron, Arnor and the Chieftain’s, Gondor vs the Wainriders etc etc
There is a 80’s Peter S Beagle (The Last Unicorn author) cartoon film that I thought was quite good. The problem was it ends halfway through “The Two Towers” and the project was dropped and than picked up by different people who ruined the rest of it. For Tolkien fans its a must have. Led Zeppelin mentioned the books a few times in their songs.
‘Sometimes I grow so tired’…Evenin’ GrandpaM.Happy to see you seem to be doing well amigo..Prayers for you,family and of course the lil Nipper.Long day…off to the sack.Came by for the evening prayer…so I’ll just say…Thank you Father for your love and the gift of life.

I’m just reading this for the first time now.
Keeping up with this thread is getting more interesting by the day.
I just love a good fantasy book or movie .
So tired right now , thoughts are getting hard to pronounce.
Had a wonderful day but there was blood involved.
I’m laughing but not lyin.
Only a couple drops of blood and it wasn’t mine so , no worries .
Blood is very red when it hits white paint.
Truth is I had a couple of my animal friends involved in a very lively discussion.
Siblings do fight from time to time.
The fur was flyin
I ain’t lyin

Day 09 April 15 2023 Today bring to Me souls who have become lukewarm
My Prayer Response with St. Faustina:
Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most
Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pure love, let these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled You with such
deep loathing, be once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Your mercy
and draw them into the very ardor of Your love, and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is
beyond Your power (Diary, 1229).
Amen.

I know your probably not gonna see this , it’s late , but I have been to the Shrine of Devine Mercy in. Stockbridge Mass.
Last time I was there it was so cold you couldn’t breath.
It was many years ago. There was always a lot going on there. Many miracles have taken place at that spot.
Some people , they don’t believe in miracles.
I do

lilbirdee12’s prayer:
Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.
Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.
Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and his family as they seek to lead America back to You. Also, we pray for Angels to protect and support our Sundance as he works for justice and peace.
Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall. Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.
We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
And prayers up for all political prisoners. Prayers up for Julian Assange and for all the protesters of January 6 who were or are entrapped in DC. And, thank you, Lord, for restoring Pastor Pawlowski.
Thank you Father, for Your love and the gift of Life.
In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
Amen
Amen.
Thank you for posting this, Andeclain. I was on the phone and lost track of time. 🙂

She is something extra special. She makes exceptional commonplace.
💕 Love always to all three of my guys above💕
Good morning all! Hope you have a blessed Sunday!
Well it looks like over 1/2 the country is in for an extended period of colder than normal temps. After summer like temps in some places that caused the plants to bud and flower it is going to get cold enough to cause severe damage. New England and the upper great lakes states, New York, and even down into Indiana are likely to see losses in orchards and vineyards.
Snow, some of it heavy will stretch from the upper plains states eastward and cover virtually all of Wisconsin and points further east from there. Chicago could even see some flakes.
And the cold is likely to persist for 3 weeks. Start this week and peak next week and then gradually warm up the week afterwards. My area here in central Indiana will see temps over 11 degrees below normal for the time of the year.
We got a huge peace lily from my Dads funeral in January. It has been doing well except for a couple leaves that Gabby the cat chewed on. Sherry put it out in the enclosed from front door entryway but today or tomorrow she’ll have to bring it in. That’s the kind of cold we’re expecting. That after running the A/C for the first time this year yesterday.
It is looking more and more likely that later this week as the cold moves in there could be a another bout of severe weather along the same general line where the last two episodes were. So keep aware and watch your weather. And GrampM your area and most of west Texas is going to under the gun again on Monday according to the forecast map. While on the same day they are showing “mixed precipitation” for my area and points east and NW up into WI, where the snow starts coming in on the NW part of that state.
Joe Bastardi says it is looking like conditions are going to be favorable for a Tropical Storm to develop in the Gulf or down around the Bahamas before or very early in the traditional season.
