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 †

God morning to all dear friends in this beautiful place of refuge🙏🏻💕🕊
Sanctus
Messe Solennelle de St Cécile by Charles Gounod
Sung by Jessye Norman
Morning, Besty❣️
God morning , dear ladies 🤗🌷🤗
I forgot to add the link for that most wonderful “Sanctus” above…everyone will see it just below but I’ll repeat it here.
Now, since I’m clearly not running on all cylinders today, will you and Ma join me in a cup of coffee??
That’d be really great!😎😁😘
Why thank you….. , yes❣️
-What a lovely invitation.
Sounds swimmingly fab!
Lemme get a floppy hat for Ma and we’ll be in.
😁
See you there!😁👍🏻🌷
I brought bathing caps for us, so you don’t have to bother looking for yours and Ma’s😎
😂😂😂😂😂😎😁
Your choice😉
Found one

Just for you Patience!
🐥thanks
😎 Happy day, Bari.
😁. You are most welcome, Patience!
Haute Couture…I’m guessing Chanel??😁
So in the know are you😝
Oh my…. That raised every hair and probably opened every pore.😇
…….💞💖
The most beautiful, surely God inspired piece he ever wrote, Miss P.
For me as well…🙏🏻🕊
Almost immediately after reading rah’s writing about Niki (which stunned me from words to write: thoughts to offer… and was moved to tears and various hopeful thoughts and volleying emotions) , I was notified that Ma’s dearest of dearest dearest cousins passed on.
It happened while listening to this. Wow!
Shortly beforehand she was very much in my thoughts
Oh, Patience…I am so very sorry. So her cousin has gone Home to take her place Christ went ahead to prepare for her.
Hoping that the Sanctus eased the news of this loss, even just a little💕
No coincidences…🙏🏻
Yes…. And on The Lord ‘s Day. ✝️😇❤️😇
Pray, I find the right time and words to tell Ma…
and that she finds joy for her cousin, “even closer than sisters” more than her personal sorrow.
You’ll find them. God will send them to you. And yes, I’m pretty sure Ma will find joy for her.🕊🙏🏻🌻
Thanks , Betsy.
Finally did it (phew) .
Ma’s good; processing… reminiscing -as always. She called her cousin’s sister, so that’s good; who advised that she had a swollen face from falling out of bed. 😳
Life sure is interesting !😱
🙂
Well you know that saying…
May you live in interesting times.
I’m glad you’ve told her and glad that she’s having her delicious mental cocktails.
As for falling out of bed? Yikes!!!
Yikes —indeed.
We’ve (ahem) been there and done that. (grunting)
When you’re used to getting up n outta bed yer whole life, it’s easy to forget you can’t without falling.
Was gonna get a bed rail, but know that she’d climb over it.
So I block the sides with wheel chairs and large thick heavy foam as a “reminder”
to ring the bell or whistle.
So far , so good. 🙏🏻
Is your mom taking Risperidone? It proved very effective in managing my wife’s dementia.
So sorry to hear, patience. I will be praying for your ma as well.
Oh thank you
-and God bless you, Slowcobra❣️
-Have a lovely day.
Gorgeous voice suitable for such majestic music.
Morning Betsy.. have a Blessed day… 🙏😀👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
God morning, Jim😘🌻 May yours contain so many blessings, dear sir, that you can’t possibly count them all🤗🕊
Good morning dear Bet and Patience! A busy day today for me. First greeting at church then driving back to get mom, then onward to our grandson’s 20 birthday party. And to answer JWoo from last night, you didn’t miss Nipper’s birthday. It’s his cousin’s though they both have the same first name and middle initial. 😀
❤️😍
God morning, my dear brother😘 Enjoy your busy day filled with God and family and celebration!
Remember, two small scoops are acceptable when celebrating anyone’s birthday😎💕
I don’t always eat ice cream but when I do it’s always giant scoops. 😀😘
I’m off ice cream now. In fact I’m off any desserts. Nothing sounds good. Must be the heat…
Loling……
It’s your
inner-Trump😝😜😝😂😂
Have a wonderful Sunday, Pa❣️❣️❣️
Enjoy and blessings to you and yours, Grandpa M
God morning, Betsy and friends.
Straighten our crown, we must. 👑 👸
Kiddo starts school this Thursday and all know my feelings about that. The summer was just way too short and I don’t want to give her back!
In our effort to live our best lives, we are going to an Indians baseball game today.
Very impromptu, but a way to send off summer properly between this and the State Fair next Sunday.
The temperature is moderate today, so looking forward to some sunshine.
God morning, dear JWoo and Savannah! 🙏🏻🌿🙏🏻
So soon? Hard to believe she’s going back. But what a wonderful way to end her summer. Both you girls enjoy every minute💕
Ours start again in another couple of weeks, and to that end, the twin grandlads are out in the broiling Texas year scraping old paint off their designated parking spaces.
This is what seniors do every year. Remove paint and then repaint their spaces. Their mother had to buy a canopy to put over them while they are working on this project. It’s SO HOT and on asphalt?? I’m concerned but they seem to be relishing the job and are staying well hydrated.
Yes, by all means, straighten both your crowns. And plow ahead, knowing Savannah will prevail over her circumstances. She’s made of tough stuff. Now where did she get that I wonder🤔😎💕
Betsy,
Yes, the Seniors here have the same tradition of painting parking spots.
I had no idea that was “a thing” until my kiddo started high school.
I’m learning everything new.
Oy… Texas heat. My 8 years in San Antonio.. I remember that well. The asphalt is hot, so I hope they’re doing their projects in the early morning or late evening.
It’s bittersweet to watch them grow and launch.
The only good thing is that before you know it it will be summer again. 😁 My daughter used to love school and so does one of her brood, our 11 year old grandson. I don’t know where that came from but not from my genes. OTOH, Miss V and Nipper are just like their Grandpa, don’t care that much for school. 🤣🤣🤣
GrandpaM,
I firmly believe a “love of learning” and “love of school” are two entirely different things.
Kiddo loves to learn, but she doesn’t care for the propaganda that distracts so much from the learning experience.
I’m sure hanging with GrandpaM is always a learning experience. They are so blessed to have you.
Exactly! The ‘gap theory’ (aka the crap theory) was a knee jerk reaction to the Scopes trial. It is not Biblical, stating that there was death before Adam sinned. How believers subscribing to the crap theory reconcile this is beyond me. Perhaps the same thought process involved in saying that Moses and company crossed the Red Sea in a shallow place does not explain Pharoah’s army drowning in the same shallow place. The sea was parted! Miracle that can’t be explained away. The earth was created about 6,000 years ago and Adam and Eve were put in a garden that wasn’t planted over a graveyard. Shalom!
Great post Melissa! Thanks for adding your relevant comment.
Not surprisingly, the “names” given to individuals, Angles, and to God himself (I think there are 70), when written and read in the original Hebrew are not merely “names” like Jack, John, Judy, Patricia ETC as we use in English, and I would guess many other languages as well. Each “name” has multi-level meanings and attachments. In this example using our concept of “Adam” being like Jack.. etc. we miss the much deeper levels of meaning. From this site https://ancient-hebrew.org/names/Adam.htm.. “Adam” as found in the book of Genesis, but what does it really mean? Let us begin by looking at its roots. This word/name is a child root derived from the parent דם (dam) meaning, “blood”. By placing the letter א in front of the parent root, the child root אדם (adam) is formed and is related in meaning to דם (dam).
By examining a few other words derived from the child root אדם we can see a common meaning in them all. The Hebrew word אדמה (adamah) is the feminine form of אדם meaning “ground” (see Genesis 2:7). The word/name אדום (Edom) means “red”. Each of these words has the common meaning of “red”. Dam is the “red” blood, adamah is the “red” ground, edom is the color “red” and adam is the “red” man. There is one other connection between adam and adamah as seen in Genesis 2:7 which states that “the adam” was formed out of the adamah.
In the ancient Hebrew world, a person’s name was not simply an identifier but descriptive of one’s character. As Adam was formed out of the ground, his name identifies his origins.
I like that! Nice explanation!
It says that with Seth’s line, came also, that “men began to call upon the Name of the LORD;” or, “men began to call [themselves by] the Name of the LORD.” And so it happened, when Methuselah was born, God gave to his father Chanuch (Enoch) a revelation and vision of the Day of the LORD, and the coming cataclysm that would be a sign for instruction for all time of that great and terrible Day; saying, With his death, the deluge; or, Methuselah. Also Enoch’s grandson Lamech, who was also a believer and holy; was given a vision and understanding of the times, when his son was born; calling him, Noah; and saying, “This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.” And so it happened, the same year that Methuselah died, the flood came; and while Lamech died five years prior to the cataclysm; he saw the ark being built, and had understanding of the times, seeing the transgressors coming to the full.
I really enjoy studying and sharing these things with you: things that are of eternal importance, and the wisdom we so desperately need to get through this present evil world.
The LORD bless you, Oldspeak! Have a great day (evening).
Actually a picture of me driving my car…according to my daughter who passed me going in the opposite direction and swore there was no driver 😎
That is too funny! You need a booster seat.
Then my legs wouldn’t reach the pedals!! It’s a no win situation😂
Betsy, whenever I see the little buick suv, I think of you! 🙂
here in the detroit area, most cars are ford, gm, or “chrysler”. So I think of you more than you know!
God morning, Slowcobra💕
LOL!!! Well you got the marque right, but I’m in a big Buick SUV, which makes the whole thing even more comical. I’ve got a mental picture of myself in it with only the top of my head showing😂. No wonder my first born calls me “Benjamin Bucca”!!😁
Oh ok! Lol, I will adjust to thinking of you now when I see an enclave 🙂 but what the heck, I’ll just think of you for all buick SUVs 🙂
Either/or…I’m good with that😂😂😂
😹
Lenticular cloud, New Zealand
This year I’ve seen more incredible cloud formations which I’ve not seen before. Beautiful, nim, and wondrous.
For car lovers.

My Sunday morning is now complete…. a fresh cup of just brewed coffee AND the Allman Brothers
Glad to help benzy . . . 🙂
I could not resist adding one more glorious Allman Brothers tune to this morning’s mix
Okay, I lied…. two more
God morning, benzy. Just when you think you’re done, there is always “one more” which comes to mind. I’m speaking from experience of course😉😊
Hearing these is like scratching a recurring itch…. always satisfying..
A great day to you Garrison!
This is our Sunday Treehouse benediction, Treeper friend. Have a blessed Sunday and always, always know that our Dear Lord loves us and watchers over us—all we have to to do id accept Him as our Savior. Honest. . . 🙂
“all we have to to do is accept Him as our Savior,” is not scriptural! The devil also believes, and trembles! The commandment is, Repentance for the remission of sins; and, Confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. God accepts us for Jesus’ sake, and He forgives us because Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and rose from the dead so we also could live.
The whole idea of sinners accepting God, is unfathomable arrogance, and complete ignorance of who God is; and no understanding of man’s doomed and alienated condition without God. The idea of man accepting God, makes God the alienated one, and the one begging for charity; does that sound right to you?
Next to that; to say that, that’s all we have to do is accept Him; goes right in the face of the whole Bible, which separates the righteous from the wicked, the saved from the damned, by our works! For its not the hearers of the law who are justified, but the doers! The Scripture says, that being a hearer only, and not a doer, one deceives himself. And the Lord said, that many would seek to enter into the kingdom of heaven, and would not be able; why? because he did not know them, they were workers of lawlessness; saying to Him, Lord, Lord, but not doing what He says.
I would strongly advise you to reconsider if this “Accepting” and “Nothing else required” is an idea you want to hold onto; if it won’t hold up to the written word of God.
It is NOT a small matter, that we say things against what Jesus says is the truth. The reason it has become so popular, and has in effect been made into doctrine; is because it is non offensive, and doesn’t demand moral accountability; which of course is extremely risky business, if you’re counting on the tithing and offerings every month. American churches have led the way in this, in turning the gospel into a business and a show. And that’s why there is no light, and no Holy Spirit, and no power and victory; only emotional enchantments and empty talk.
Perhaps searching the meaning of “accept” is warranted.
I accept
that you do not accept:
…”that our Dear Lord loves us and watchers over us—all we have to to do is accept Him as our Savior.”
-Context matters.
✝️
Have a blessed Sunday
🙏..so well put, Patience, 😀👍..
🇺🇸💪😀👍
Words may not always truly express what is intended… , but hope they do not fail me in this salutation:
I wish you
a blessed Sunday morning
-and day, Jim❣️
🙏🙏..and to you also fellow Treeper 😀👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
🤗🌱
Patience,
I like your interpretation.
I accept it. 🕊️♥️🙏
A joyful Sunday, to you Lorrie💞
Afternoon Patience . . . darlin’ 🙂 Even when influenced by dyslexia induced misspelling (couldn’t see my error even when looking directly at it), I agree that context does, indeed, matter.
Thank you for being both succinct and well said. To that I will add: The definition of Secondary Ignorance is not knowing that you don’t know.
I understand your point; but THAT IS PRECISELY THE POINT! We do have more to do than just “accept” the Lord, who loves us and watches over us. First of all, we are not the ones in the position of accepting; it is not Jesus who is waiting at the back porch for us to bring Him out a plate of beans! We are the ones who are unfit for the Presence of God; and can only be saved by the way and means He has made for us to be saved. The use of the word Accept, is in my view, a sneaky manipulation, and deviates from what is our real condition and need. Like I pointed out; having only to accept, does not demand moral accountability; which is the entire issue, and how we are unfit for the Presence of God naturally. The man and his wife were sent out of the garden wearing animal skins! Isn’t that a picture of shame and something having gone horribly bad? And then the way of the tree of life guarded by the cherubim with flaming swords turning every direction: that doesn’t sound like God is the one requiring favor!
Its far easier to “bring people to Jesus” by making it more palatable for the proud and hiding sinful man; and it sounds close enough, right? NO! Not right! God has shown us in the Scriptures, and by the testimony of all His holy prophets and messengers, exactly how we are to come before Him, and set in order our account. And simply raising one’s hand quietly from the seats, and accepting Jesus, is not anything they did in the beginning. Read the accounts in the first few chapters of Acts; and take careful note, how they repented and were converted, and were then given the Holy Ghost. And whenever someone started to be deceitful and deviate from that purity of heart; they were taken away quickly and decisively (Ananias and Saphira, Acts 5).
Words absolutely matter; for they are the expression of what’s in the heart.
Peace to you Patience 🙂
Here is an important juxtaposition in Ephesians 2:8-9
****
For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;
not as a result of works, that no one should boast.
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
***
First it says that our salvation is not a result of our works. Then it describes a life of good works, which is the normal life of a believer in a good relationship with the Lord. First there is redemption (not of our works) then there is a life full of good works.
It is not possible that we, the helpless and hopeless sinners, slaves of sin and powerless over sin, could participate in the sublime work of redemption. Only the sinless man, Jesus Christ, could do that and He did it perfectly. He said, It is finished! The hand of flesh of fallen humanity cannot help or participate in redemption’s work.
As the hymns say, Redemption’s work is fully done, and, He opened the life gate that all may go in. That means that He respects each persons free will to choose redemption or not. When we choose the Savior, He is glorified.
The confusion comes in when people read the warnings about the loss of reward as a faithful believer and think this refers to salvation. The reward can be lost, due to foolish and selfish decisions and willful lack of diligence. Again, the free will of man can operate.
The promises of God can never be broken. The promises of God to the Jews will certainly be fulfilled. In John it talks about no one being able to snatch us out of His hand or out of the Father’s hand.
The security of our salvation cannot be safeguarded by our feeble and wavering effort, such that we could be saved and unsaved numerous times a day. It is secured by the two strong hands of the Father and the Son.
We then have to be diligent to live out the life we have received. We got two big things when we accepted the Lord: redemption and regeneration.
Romans 6:23
The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Redemption takes care of our sin debt of the past. Regeneration empowers us to stay in a position of victory over sin. The proof of the power of the gospel is changed lives.
AnAppeal2Heaven, WOW❣️
I accept your very thoughtful and well supported offering.
-Have a lovely…blessed day.
“That means that He respects each persons free will to choose redemption or not. When we choose the Savior, He is glorified.”
Exactly right! But that choosing is made manifest by acknowledgement of the truth, and repentance, and conversion. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, and the beginning of wisdom; the decision of faith must express itself: it doesn’t just sit there content with having agreed in concept; for the burning guilt and conviction compels him to act upon his convictions.
I was reading this morning (afternoon) in 1 Chronicles 28, where David was charging his son Solomon, and giving him the divinely inspired pattern for building the temple; and it was emphasized how David had provided with all his affection, and all his might, and out of his private wealth, for everything needed to build the house; and then it was put to Solomon to take charge; and then also to all the people, who were willing, to consecrate themselves to do the work. Jesus has done all, and given His all, to provide everything for us to build the house of God. Just as Solomon and all the people owed it to David and to the LORD, to finish what they had been given to do; so do we owe it to the Lord Jesus and the Father, and all our brethren who have come before us; to consecrate ourselves with a perfect heart and a willing mind, to take heed now, and to do it.
This is not a game of semantics! This is about proving ourselves worthy of His love, and all that He has done for us. The grace that has been wrought in us, and the Spirit which God has given into our hearts, is reflected in our course in life, by obedience to His word and His Spirit.
Thanks (again), Garrison❣️
Amen, Patience. The one absolute unchanging certainty in this world where chaos swirls all around us. That solid Rock we know will always be there unmoved. So much comfort in knowing it.
Absolutely true, Patience. I agree with you on your earlier post. God Bless You.
Hope this Sunday is one of inner calm and joy…
and a day filled with obvious-to-you Blessings, Marti.

Short and to the point… it’s a prayer I use many, many times a day …😀👍

Bless-ed Sunday Morning, Garrison💕🙏🏻
Yesterday I fell upon quite a few sublime performances by the wonderful VOCES8 and the Tallis Scholars.
The first overwhelmed me completely, so much so I shut my eyes and was sure I was hearing angels singing. My instant thought was that I was so glad Sunday was coming so I could share…
“Draw on, Sweet Night”
John Wilbye
“Nunc Dimittis”
Palestrina
“Sicut Cervus”
Palestrina
“Amazing Grace”
This was tremendous !! What a powerful singer Dan Vasc is. This will bring tears to your eyes. He also does Angels We Have Heard On High. He sings this in Italian, German, Portuguese, and American. Great, powerful singer.
God morning, Marti🤗
Well it certainly did to mine! I wasn’t expecting what I heard. I could feel myself taking a deep breath and holding it for a long time. And I mean a long time…
Good grief!!! I didn’t realize he was a multilingual singer!! Portuguese is notoriously the most difficult language.(though I would say it and Welsh are about equal in that category). I’m going to search for more….thank you!!😘
you can tell he was earnest in his belief and presentation shows his talent
Well I must say
that is absolutely
eye-catching b e a u t I f u l!
-Those words are really good too.
Unusually Powerful performance of Amazing Grace by that heavy metal singer!
I had a very similar emotional reaction as you as he got into the latter and stronger part of his interpretation..
Just WOW.
Have a very peaceful and uplifting day, Ms. Betsy!
Blessings to you, GB🙏🏻🤗
When I saw the word “Metal Singer” I came within a hair’s breadth of giving it a miss.
But something made me click on it. Powerful!! Moving, and the words came alive for me. Which for me as a pedantic classical music lover is really saying something. I’m so happy you found it the same, my friend💕
Amazing Grace, indeed Bet. This wonderful song always reminds me of how Our Lord can see past our sin and forgive us. His Love is so encompassing that it’s presence can sometimes seem overwhelmingly profound.
I was talking with my young Mormon missionary friends the other day about this. We all had direct experience of His Grace—comparing our experiences affirmed our shared belief that there are multiple paths to belief and acceptance. You just have to take that first step. That’s what Amazing Grace always means to me.
Grace is amazing, Garrison. Forgiveness such as we mortals cannot imagine. The same with His love for us, also unfathomable.
So good to know your friendship with your Mormon friends is thriving still. I’m sure they enjoy your company and conversation as much as you do theirs. I think it’s beautiful.
Trust you enjoyed your breakfast this fine Sunday morning? It’s not Tuesday but were having tacos tonight (sticking with the Mexican food theme). Haven’t had them in so long.
I was hesitant because both Ortega and Old El Paso have bioengineered ingredients in them and I’m wary. But on the grocery shelf sat some honest to goodness Mexican made tacos in abundance. Can’t wait to try them!!!! Blessed be the rest of your day, dear friend💕
Afternoon Bet . . . darlin’ 🙂 Thanks for posting these splendid performances. I departed from our benediction musical custom (and then messed up formatting doggonit) because I thought these two gospel messages were so heartfelt that I wanted to share them with all of us. That said, there’s always room here for more good music. So, thanks!
You’re welcome!!👍🏻😊
🕊️🙏♥️
🙂
Blessed morning, Garrison.
Afternoon ‘Woo . . . darlin’ 🙂 🙂 🙂 I hope you and Savannah are having a wonderful, very blessed Sunday. I so enjoy posting here on Sunday’s because it is such a great reminder of what a special day this is.
And we love you posting here on Sundays (and every day), Garrison.
Our walks with the Lord are so much richer when we can share Him in this little Treehouse.
Exactly! 🙂

With Biden, who allegedly runs the biggest child slavery operation in the western hemisphere?
TWITTER WILL STREAM THE FILM SOUND OF FREEDOM
Elon Musk confirmed that “Sound of freedom” can be seen anywhere in the world.
Billionaire Elon Musk of Spacex and Twitter announced that after the Sound of Freedom movie has been screened in all theaters, Twitter will stream the movie globally.
The film Sound of Freedom (Sound of freedom), denounces the networks of pedophiles who traffic children, as if they were cattle, for sexual purposes and later to sell their organs.
The film tells the story of American security agent Tim Ballard, who, after rescuing a boy from the clutches of traffickers, learns that the little boy’s sister is still being held captive. So he quits his job and risks his life as he embarks on a perilous journey through the Colombian jungle to save her.
And the subject is interesting. Because it means bringing to light a network of perversion that has always tried to remain hidden. But this tape denounces it and brings it to the fore.
All such glorious news for everyone who weeps tears for any child tortured by evil, evil men and, yes women. I know I do.
Terrible news for those repellent soulless monsters who think their sickening actions would remain unseen and untouched as they seek to hide in the dark recesses of their satanic world.
God please bless and empower all those who have any part in exposing these reptiles and rescuing the innocents who have fallen into their degenerate sphere.🙏🏻
Human trafficking was at its lowest during Trump’s administration. He is not the Messiah. However, he is a dedicated man who sought/seeks good outcomes for America and her to people. 🇺🇲
Just like him to host a viewing of this film!♥️
I’ve unintentionally come upon pictures, Lori. I never knew I had that many tears in me.

childhood
We had some high-card-technology on our bikes:
We only clothes pinned high playing cards to our spooks for the right sounding noise.
It drove the old folks crazy until they found out they weren’t playing with a full deck. (sorry for the pun).
******************
In CC-by-the-seaside, the Whataburger hamburger stand was started up.
The owner would fly over the city in a piper cub (the drone of the day) and throw out coupons.
We’d hear that plane coming and would get on our bikes and chase those coupons down to get a free Whataburger.
It was tough on a windy day.
But hey, getting a free Whataburger was worth it.
That fella did all right with that business …. he had a great product and he knew how to advertise it.
the playing cards in the spokes got my Rolodex memories going back to my first bike … thx..😂🤣👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
Yessirree Cactus! We did the same thing to our bikes back in the early ’50s in Dayton Ohio.
Only I didn’t use playing cards…. I used my baseball cards that I collected from bubble gum packs!
If only I had saved those… some of them would have been worth $000’s in later years!
But they sure sounded great to us kids…….
As for fast food…..all I can remember from that era and town is a (drive-in?) restaurant called Country Boy. Their big sign out front had the image of boy dressed in overalls and shirt with a straw farmer hat and a bumblebee on his toe or nose. I was a very young and only remember what I could see from the back seat of my father’s 1954 Dodge.

“TV set between your ears”
Below is the link to the 2/7/2021 World Tribune article that blows the cover off of the Molly Ball’s Times article of 2/4/2021 that defines the who, what, when, how and why of the 2020 fraudulent presidential election.
The Ball article tries to cover the crime by saying they were “saving” the election, not “stealing” the election.
President Trump won the 2020 election ….. the democrats/GOPe stole it from him and illegally certified biden on 1/6/2021.

Sure they think we’re stupid; but they KNOW that nobody’s gonna do anything about it! They do it because they can!
That is beautiful nwtex.

Have a Blessed Sunday everyone!
Joe Bastardi covers a lot of ground in his Saturday Summary.
Addresses meteorological reasons for the record high temp that wasn’t actually a record.
But what I have found out since I posted yesterday is there is a Nuclear Power station near that place pumping out warm water in addition to all the other info I gave.
Joe says summer is over for Europe! For the alarmists to be hyping temperatures they will have to go to the polar Urals, where the temps will be higher than normal.
If NYC has not had a heat wave all summer. Takes 3 consecutive days of 90 deg. F or above for it to be a heat wave. Joe makes fun of the their news having live on the street reports on the “extreme heat” when the temperature was only 88 deg and they had 5 mph winds gusting to 23 mph,
Most of the weather models are coming around to agree that August is going to be cooler than normal for most of the US almost all of Europe. CSFv2, Japanese, Canadian, are all showing essentially the same thing.
Joe is working on his winter forecast for the US. It is still looking like those in the North and Central East of the US will be having a more severe winter than they have in some time. Now that I’m not on the road anymore I am hoping that will be the case for my place here in Indiana.
Other weather related info not mentioned by Joe:
I
Arctic Sea Ice extent is currently higher than it has been for 17 years on this date. In about two weeks it will be dropping below freezing in the Arctic circle again.
At this time US wildfire burn acreage is at a record low.
Always love your weather posts. You are so knowledgeable on so many topics. It’s got to be a relief not being on the road anymore, Rob. Hoping your retirement is proving quite relaxing! How is your daughter doing? You haven’t updated us in a while – unless I missed it.
Thank you. After 30 years of paying attention to weather and climate I have gained some knowledge but really for all I posted above I just know where to look and who to listen to/read to get the info from those that know far more than I.
I enjoy your commentary Rah.
Keep up the good work, but do enjoy your retirement.
Sounds like you’ve earned it!
I earned it. Started paying into SS when I was 16 and except when in school worked my entire life until I was over 67 y/o without ever filing for or drawing unemployment. But in these tougher times my retirement is financially secure with the resources to do many of the things I want, only because of my inheritance from Dad.
Sherry and I would be alright with what we earned and saved and our SS but it is because of Dad that we have the resources to do the additions to the house and set it up for when we become infirmed and still go wherever and whenever we want to go.
Hi, rah❣️
Arsonists are busy elsewhere
Yep, but now that the SW Monsoon has started kicking in their job will be harder.
Lol…
It’s not nice to fool “Mother Nature”.
God is always in charge and ahead of the foolish.
Here near the Pacific Ocean we had a very wet and windy winter. Rain stopped end of April instead of usual mid June so summer drier than usual. Antifa has not yet been setting fires along highways 101 and 18 but then it isn’t an election year. Next summer I expect antifa to be setting Oregon ablaze.
Mornin’ all!
👻👻👻👻👻
some days just be like:
Where is it?
Update on Niki. Not good.
Niki’s attitude is now great but she is losing the physical battle. Niki can frequently eat normal foods of certain kinds and has been getting out of bed and going out to places, including walks on the beach and trips to the store. But after three more sessions of chemo the main tumor has grown from 3 cm to 5 cm. She celebrated her 48th birthday on the 28th and looks like a 90 year old.
There is still hope though.
She will be taking no more chemo. They are now looking at a new promising experimental surgery. Did you know that they are digitally printing tissue and small segments of body organs?
They talked to a woman that had a similar cancer to what Niki has and had this done and who is now back to work and living a normal life! It involves replacing the infected part of the inferior vena cava and a small area of her liver with digitally printed tissue parts.
The woman they talked to that had this procedure said there were 23 people in the OR when they wheeled her in. That’s the kind of major surgery their talking about. But it appears that is her best option to have a chance to live and possibly even have a relatively normal life.
I really don’t know how I’m going to be able to console Sherry if we lose Niki.
We have not gone down because there is nothing we can do at this time. But when Allison starts school we will probably be going down for some time because at least we can take her and pick her up from school and do things with her to take a little of the load off Laura.
Oh rah, this is not good news.
I hope you’ve seen what I’ve posted about Fenbendazole and Ivermectin in the treatment of cancers and I will leave the link here once again. Please read. Scroll to about halfway down to see the relevant information. Fenbendazole is available on Amazon under the hearing “Fenbendazole for human cancers”.
https://veryvirology.substack.com/p/curing-the-incurable-cancer
This is taken in conjunction with Ivermectin, no matter pill or paste. Baking soda as well, if you can imagine.
Please read. At this point surely it is worth getting her on it, dear friend. There is hope with this as I have read elsewhere.
We will intensify our prayers for Niki, that our God of all healing will in His mercy take charge of her now to turn this monstrous cancer to nothing. And prayers for you and Sherry and all who love her.
Please do not lose hope. He and we will be with you all with the most effective medicine there could ever be. Bet🙏🏻💕
After reading it, I sent it on in an e-mail with the comment, “At this point I don’t see what you have to lose” and told her to share it with Laura and for them to talk about it.
She has nothing whatsoever to lose. I’m so glad you forwarded it to her. Praying…🙏🏻💕
Good morning Betsy
That link takes you right up to the protocol but doesn’t state the exact protocol (dosages, timing etc) do you have another link for that?
No, I know…
But it’s a start for researching, and I’ve read so many articles about dosing. They are there. Next one I see I will save and pass on.
Here is a link with dosage suggestion… Fenbendazole 222 mg/ daily, along with curcumin and Vitamin E.

LARGEST SINGLE SHIPMENT OF MAYONNAISE
Most people don’t know that back in 1912, Hellmann’s mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.
This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.
The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were
disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.
The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as …
Sinko de Mayo. (H/T TNDeplorable)
Took this one from the ACE OF SPADES HQ blog.
Another one from the same place:
http://ace.mu.nu/archives/7%2029%20coffee.jpg
One of the first places I visit every day, JJ Sefton’s The Morning Report, is a must for me.
Love Hellman’s, though they use “bioengineered” ingredients, which is concerning.
I used to make my own mayonnaise. It was trouble but so worth it.
Dukes is the only mayo. Unfortunately Dukes is made with soy. No sugar or corn syrup!
Here’s some advice on making your own Dukes. I just sub in avocado/Coconut or olive oil. I stay away from soy as much as possible. I state as much as possible because so many foods have soy.
https://lifehacker.com/how-to-make-your-own-dukes-style-mayonnaise-1833804415
👋
Monti, do you avoid soy because of sodium? Just wondering if there’s something else to consider.
I avoid soy (especially soy oil) because it messes with male and female hormones and there’s too much of it in almost everything. Moderation in all things.
oh ok, thanks!
I should have added that soy beans are one of the crops genetically engineered to survive spraying by weed killer. The glyphosate can still be in the plant. Corn and soybeans are modified.
Haven’t tried Duke’s. Don’t think its available here in Texas, or at least in the place I shop. But I have read that people love it.
Oh no, I use hellmans. Never knew that about the ‘bioengineered’ ingred 🙁 thank you for that… i’ll figure out plan b.
I was horrified when I read the label….whatever bioengineered means in the context of mayonnaise.
Soybeans modified to resist herbicide
lol
I love a shaggy dog story.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
Gracious God morning, dear friend🙏🏻💕 Another Sunday in this beloved church of ours. May all His blessings and protections be yours all the day long, sweet lady😘🌷
Morning, Busy Bet !!! Beautiful pic above – LOVE IT !!!
How is Chris doing ??? Pray him as soon as I see your post !!! ❤️
HAVE A BERRY BLESSED DAY !!! ❤️💙💜
This day has absolutely flown by!! My goodness!!!! Sorry for the late return, dear friend.
He’s doing great!! Bless you for asking. We were talking about this last night…how (yes I will say it) near death he was only four months ago! And now? This morning he was out repairing a sprinkler head, and riding in situ on the “Barbie” bike (pink😎) an ex colleague gave him which he has secured on a device to he can pedal without going anywhere.
Then as we had an old 8 inch Kindle we’d forgotten about, he has attached that to the handlebars and downloaded on of those videos which lets him pretend he’s actually biking down scenic roads.
Then he went to the store for me to lick up some things I “forgot” (wink😉)
Not until it gets cooler though…early mornings he does about 15 minutes.
Unfathomable the short time it has been since his devastating illness and inability to take even a couple of steps with gasping!
But we know, don’t we, how that happened🙏🏻 MIRACLE!!
I said to him that the best and most loving Prayer Warriors on the planet live in this Tree. He knows and gave out a heartfelt AMEN!!
I will deliver your sweet thoughts to him right now, bless-ed lady😘🌻
New week starting tomorrow, can’t believe it!!! Blinked and the last one went WHOOSH!!!!! One less day till Christmas!😁🤗
OH, BET !!! So happy to receive this great report –
and the healing that has been realized !!! ❤️
Praise God !!! OH !!! 🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️🧚🏻♀️
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!! ❤️
Thank You !!! God Bless You Both Mightily – I see He already has !!! 🥰
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.

Have read many people posting they cannot find them. We started looking long before to no avail. This is what government by unelected rabid ideologues looks like. Welcome to the USSA.
You guys might like to see a vlog from Fran Blanche about this. She outlines some things about it that are interesting. She’s an accomplished scientist, electronics engineer, musician, inventor…and space historian….and everything else too…etc:
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
LIGHT OF THE WORLD
Jesus said: Ye are the light of the world
As children of God darkness is unfurled
We walk as children in the light of God
Because He called us out not to be flawed
If we walk in the light as He is in the light
We have fellowship with one another right
The Blood of the Lamb cleanses all from sin
Darkness cannot exist or live within
Let light shine out of darkness in our hearts
Where knowledge of His Glory light imparts
His Word is a lamp right unto our feet
A light unto our path none can defeat
Let your light shine bright before all others
Show your good works to sisters brothers
All praise to the Heavenly Father of all
That they may give glory both great and small
Then your light shall break forth like the dawn
Your healing shall spring up quickly bygone
Your righteousness shall go well before you
The Glory of God behind you accrue
Your eye is the lamp of your whole body
When the eye is healthy it shines broadly
But when it is not beware you will see
Darkness will envelope encompass thee
Come out of the darkness into the light
Proclaim the excellence of God outright
He who walks in darkness loses his way
But he who walks with God has His sway
D01: 07/30/2023
Duchess…
Surely no coincidence I should post above about the Light before I scrolled down to find your serene poem.
You and I are a single mind about this as I well know.

GOD BLESS YOU REAL GOOD !!! 🧡🧡🧡
Good morning! Wish my hummingbirds could get along! Have to place multiple feeders out of sight of each other. One or two bullies can ruin a good thing
God morning, monti💕
I wish we could attract any!
I put out a feeder far away and sheltered from the horrid ants. Not one hummingbird. I know they visit because last year in the spring one came within a foot of my face. I raced to buy a feeder and nectar. Then nothing. And in the end, the horrid ants made the long trek to help themselves. We are baking hot, and there is no place to hang our feeder that doesn’t eventually get the sun’s full blast.
I love this picture. A group feeding. Lovely😍🌿
Good afternoon!
You can spray around the base of the feeder pole (if suspended on a pole) with Off, insecticide or a mix of 1 tbsp dawn dishwashing liquid to one cup water. You have to renew the spray every few days to keep the ants from climbing their way to the feeders. If suspended then you can spray the wire or whatever the feeder is suspended by. Although the hummingbirds will still go to a feeder with ants inside they won’t use it very long.
In this hot weather you have to change out the 1:4 sugar water every couple days minimum. It ferments or goes bad. 1 cup white sugar to 4 cups water is enough for multiple feeders. I don’t try to fill each feeder completely since I know I have to renew every couple days. Shady spot for feeders is better than sunny and it helps keep the wasps and bees away, they like the sun.
BTW the dawn mix is great insecticide if placed in an old Windex bottle, works on paper wasps and all types of inscects.
If you have a real problem with ants, spiders and other insects near the house then spray Sevin insecticide in a 6 foot wide barrier all the way around the house on the ground. Keeps those away and out of the house. If ticks and chiggers are a problem then spray the whole yard. Keep pets and kids off the lawn until the next rain or irrigation.
I sincerely thank you for this recipe, monti. I knew about changing out the nectar.
We use that mixture by the way to kill aphids on plants when they appear. It works brilliantly!
You’re most welcome.
Yes, actually the Dawn mix works so well that it bothers me, we rarely use it for washing dishes and it will break out sensitive hands. Keep a spray bottle premixed of Dawn next to chicken coop doors this time of year for paper wasps that build in the coops.
Anything that will kill insects like that eh? Another item that kills spiders and ants immediately is Clorox spray disinfectant in the pressurized can (or generic equivalent). It’s effects are as immediate as any “bug” spray out there and cheaper. Hopefully its safer to use inside the home…..but again anything that kills insects like that is suspect for safety around humans IMHO
Another big trucking/logistics company with Teamster drivers bites the dust. There is likely going to come a time when UPS and some of the Auto manufacturers will be the only major carrier still having Teamster drivers.

10 Healing Foods from the Bible
Rebecca Barlow Jordan
https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-study/topical-studies/healing-foods-from-the-bible.html
Let’s rename AI to be AS
Artificial Stupidity.
Treepers with posting abilities on other sites wanted!!
Anyone here able to post responses, op eds, comments from CTH to
other websites such as
Patriots Win: the Donald, Free Republic, Lucianne.Com ?
If so, could YTG be assisted on getting the word out on starting to make
Fulton County, GA the next Bud Light?
Will be posting this repeatedly, in different threads, will be altering it
periodically.
Fulton County DA wants to charge, indict Trump.
Are you planning on travel through the Southeast? There’s a good
chance that you will wind up going through Fulton County, Ga.
Atlanta ( and 14 other cities ) are location in Fulton County, Ga.
Look them up online, to help keep this posting brief.
All roads go through Fulton County GA. At least 1-75, 1-85, 1-20,
285 and the 6-8 lane GA 400 bypass. If you are traveling through
metro Atlanta north to south, east to west, good chance you’ll be
in Fulton County at least an hour. It’s physically that big.
So…. do you want to spend any $$ to a county who’s DA is preparing
to bring charges against Trump? Don’t gas up, eat, stay, attend concerts,
get snacks, attend Braves games, or give money to Fulton County. It’s
easy: just pay attention to the following outline.
Going down 1-75 South? Gas up, stay, or eat before Lake Alatoona.
(Cherokee County is a good rule of thumb).
Going North on 1-75? Do the same as above for $$, just at or before
McDonough exits
Going East on 1-85? Try to do so before hitting the Gwinnett County
line, or by Sattelite Boulevard exit at the latest.
Going the other direction? Spend your money at Peachtree City, Newnan.
Going East on 1-20? No money spent after Conyers, Covington.
Going West on 1-20? Save your money by Douglasville exits , at the latest.
Make doubly sure that you gas up on the outskirts of the above areas, because
if you are visiting anything around 285, it’s too late. Much of it is in Fulton.
Or Dekalb, which is equally corrupt.
If you are coming 2outh on GA 400, get everything by Forsyth County (Buford).
All the towns on the wide portion of 400 below it are in Fulton County, (except
Dunwoody. Dekalb).
Start getting these plans in place before your travel, and post on websites what
you’ve done. And tell your like minded friends the same. Make Fulton County GA
the next Bud Light.
seems Uncle Billy Sherman and his dashing Yankee boys went through Atlanta a while ago and while he did have some trouble…
Three letter agencies raiding their own sites ?
I was just blessed with watching 2 of these spectacular Mississippi Kites hawking Cicada’s over my house. They put on a show for 10 minutes or so. First time, as my previous sightings were just flyovers. They are majestic in their flight patterns, especially watching their dives down towards the trees to catch them in flight.
Nice!
It must be the 17th year cicadas?
DAY # 7 – EVENING PRAYER
Psalm 91. The most powerful prayer from the Bible. Pray it seven times. God’s protection, healing.
Courageous Discourse substack with Dr. Peter McCullough and John Leake, this includes an interview with the founder of Xlear, used for sinus rinse and they also have a nasal spray, this is the item that the doctors were using because it killed the covid virus, and the company paid for the research to verify that claim.
so am thinking the information could be helpful for figuring out what to put in our medicine cabinets. It’s an over-the-counter product at most pharmacies here in the US.
https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/the-clear-benefits-of-nasal-hygiene
Bessie…we keep Xlear in ours …and use it precisely because of its covid killing properties. It’s brilliant stuff. Get ours on Amazon. Thank you for the link!
