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 †

-Total eclipse of my heart
What a bazaar video
Ackshually very appropriate video for today’s event 😛
Yes… indeed
and now,
out in the open.
-older than dirty dirt
Actually I hated the video, but always loved the song!
Israel Update:
The drama is coming. The next few days are critical. Stay tuned the picture will clarify as you go through the paragraphs. You may see conflicting data but I will explain at the end.
-The IDF moved out of Khan Yunis. Division 98 (The Commando Division) did an amazing job. Developed some new war technique that was never seen before of moving above and below ground concurrently. Apparently they achieved the dismantling of all the Hamas Battalions in the area. They cleared large amounts of tunnels and infrastructure. They have been fighting for six months and need a refresher. The IDF feels that now is the time to shift war technique and use the “raid strategy”. We will be located within less than an hour to any location and raid according to Intel. The IDF will not sit there and be a static target. The model of what was done at the Shifa Hospital was a huge success and they will shift to this model of raids, “hit and out”. Also civilians are let back in which signals the intent to get the refugees from Rafah to move back in. I watched a video of civilians returning.
-Defense Minister Galant in the Southern Command: “The withdrawal of the forces from Khan Yunis was carried out after Hamas ceased to function as a military organization in the city, the forces left to prepare for the mission in Rafah”
-I read on one of my Telegram channels someone who said that he has family in Gaza and they are pulling out to regroup, refresh and go to Rafah and possibly South Lebanon.
-Bibi also said that we are close to winning, just left to get Rafah.
-Defense Minister is saying that moving civilians out of Rafa will begin next week.
Now I will tell you the other information that may be conflicting:
-Chief of Staff in a talk today mentioned that “The IDF is strong enough for the state of Israel to pay a price for its sons and daughters.”
-A report from Senior Official involved in the Hostage exchange negotiations:
“The US has taken off the gloves and is not willing to accept anything but a hostage deal and a ceasefire. They want an arrangement in Lebanon and a Normalization with Saudi Arabia.”
-A senior Egyptian person from the negotiations. “The sides arrived at agreements and will return in a couple of days to conclude the deal”.
-This one is my own note. From what I see this is dramatic. In the next days we will either see a hostage deal or the move on Rafah will begin.
I am getting here that Bibi is making concessions to Biden under extreme pressure and threats and may make a not so good deal that will release only some 40 people and then Hamas will keep squeezing us with the others while gaining positions and moving terrorists into areas that we cleared.
But I don’t think Bibi will ever have a mandate from Israel to stop the war. And Israel is larger and stronger and can eventually win at a cost. So Hamas will have to agree that it’s not over. The whole thing is on Hamas. Then Biden will try to go for a Normalization with Saudi Arabia and may try to add a Palestinian State into the formula against our will.
If he sticks for allowing the Saudis have a nuclear program as a part of the deal, then it’s a disaster for the long run. Heavens forbid.
On the other hand Bibi is going along with it and got an agreement that if Hamas doesn’t make reasonable concessions we have the agreement to move into Rafah without the whole world turning on us.
If you followed me a while ago I made a whole explanation about Israel being a part of the overall plan related to oil routes from the Middle East to Europe and how it puts down the Russian and Iranian oil, etc….
I bet that the US pressured Qatar and Egypt to threaten Hamas. Egypt got their border and tunnels and Qatar could kick their leaders out of their country.
Now on top of it all we have the upcoming Iranian revenge that could throw everything off and ignite a regional war. This could also explain why we pulled off soldiers. Things are about to change.
-After the last hard talk with Biden, Bibi opened a very large flow of supply trucks through Israel to Gaza , hundreds of them today. It looks like Israel is making a change of policy and will make sure that the Gazans get the supplies that they need, including steps to secure it against Hamas. Taking more responsibility on this aspect.
-And just to complete my report, today we had some Israeli bombardments at Rafah and in South Lebanon and Hezbollah lost another commander.
Shalom, we now really need everyone’s prayers. God Bless.
ICYMI:
IDF set-up by Hamas to attack World Central Kitchen (WCK) vehicles
Full text of the above tweet and retweet
👇
The WCK convoy was a Hamas trap.
And the U.S. is collaborating with Hamas.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%
BREAKING
IDF has revealed that Hamas PURPOSELY drew fire to the WCK truck.
At around 10 pm, the IDF noticed suspicious activity as the WCK vehicle was joined by a convoy of several other Hamas vehicles.
Hamas terrorists then climbed ONTO and INTO the WCK truck and FIRED several times indiscriminately into the air to ensure the IDF would see them.
The convoy then split up and entered a hanger, where it became difficult to distinguish between the Hamas vehicles and the WCK vehicle.
IDF attempted to call both the WCK workers and WCK HQ on TWO separate occasions to confirm whether they were with the Hamas convoy but their calls remained unanswered.
When the vehicles left the hangar OVER AN HOUR LATER the IDF drone unit misidentified the WCK vehicle for a vehicle from the Hamas convoy and mistakenly struck.
The IDF has provided their full findings to both WCK and Jose Andres, and are now requiring new stickers for aid vehicles which can be seen via drones even in the dark.
There should be footage I hope.
Been praying and will continue to do so !! May Israel stay strong and resolute in its mission to destroy hamas. Prayers and peace to you and yours, David !!!
❤️
Yes, and pray also to wrest the foreign policy of our government from this administration. They are pandering to “refugees” we purposefully installed in Dearbornistan who are now chanting, “Death to America.”
Yes! See Michigan! Frightening .
Prayers up.
Thanks David. Why does the west keep talking about a Palestinian state; as if it is something that Israel has been blocking? It has ALWAYS been the Arab countries and the Palestinians who have rejected peaceful agreement with Israel.
They don’t recognize the right of Israel to exist at any borders. So they don’t cut any deal or make any concession.
We proposed them something like over 95% of the land that they wanted.
This is the reporting I am finding about the situation for Israel:
First (I can read the message but cant get a link or copy the text…
Iran has reportedly communicated to the United States through the Sultanate of Oman, that the Islamic Republic intends to directly strike Israel, unless the U.S. guarantees an immediate permanent ceasefire in Gaza & no Israeli ground invasion of Rafah – Exclusive sources to Jadeh Iran.
Second similar posting…Iran offers no response to Damascus strike if US secures Gaza ceasefire – report
https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-795866
So not only do we have Hamas insisting that Israel stop the war, Iran has stepped into the negotiations with Biden to force Israel to comply. And just thinking of all those bags of ‘enrichment’ to his secret stash will tell you exactly what decision Biden will make. WTG, we now have the enemy of our ally as a friend…shakin my head or should I just bang it on my desk…So sad 🙁
That’s correct as far as the Iranian statement. I don’t know what the US did with it.
There is no Israeli leader who could stop this war permanently without finishing the job on Hamas.
The Israelis will not accept and will go to elections to replace such a leader.
Of course peace with Saudi Arabia will be tempting but not enough.
I don’t understand how the supplies are being stolen? Why are these thieves allowed life I thought that was the whole point of this war to destroy these groups, are they not all the same?
Most supplies came from Egypt which is not an area that Israel controls. Hamas climbs on the trucks with their weapons. There are videos. Now I think Israel will provide passage to most of the trucks.
Originally Israel took no responsibility and opposed any supplies. But this was not possible as there are millions of civilians and even with limited supplies when some images of children hungry or even dead emerged the damage to Israeli legitimacy was huge and it was a tipping point to US support. Israel need from the US the munitions for the bombs for jet fighters and for tanks. It’s a mess up that we don’t make them in Israel and now there is a project to change it but will take time over a year.
Since when does Biden and his horde of baby killers care about HAMAS babies?
When the Siccas guys make curatorial choices, I have to tip my hat . . . they generally make very good choices. We’ve heard from Zoe Barnett before. I decided to present again tonight because she is one of those players who can create a musical luminosity that seems to be an entirely natuural extension of her talent.
Listening to her is, I think, a real gift. Listening to this performance was impressive. She is a wonderful virtuoso with her own unique performance persona. I’d love to attend one of her live performances. I hope you enjoy her as much as I did tonight, Treeper friends . . . 🙂
Thank you Garrison. Good music! My apology for surrounding it with my war staff. LOL.
Your contributions here are both welcome and much appreciated, David. We like Jews here.
We like any and all ‘good’ people here.
🙂
The video is of some damage in Khan Yunis which represents all the areas of combat. I don’t know the % but a lot of Khan Yunis is a mess. Not exactly a “victory” image that Hamas is trying to sell. The reason the IDF had relatively low death toll is that the commanders on the ground would call in air strikes when they had serious opposition.
As a note. Hamas and their supporters in Gaza have only two modes: 1. Blood thirst murder in the eyes hate. 2. Whining of the consequences of their actions when they get hit. This video is the second mode.
https://youtube.com/shorts/0HGnXIhoqGw?si=nUGTkj_t1Xd52o1k
Hamas and Gaza peeps are two-faced if you ask me. Never trust such snakes. Ever. They’ll attack you coming and going.
Thanks for the videos.
Hello David and blessings,
I often wonder where all the debris goes. So much concrete. So much destruction. It is disheartening to view a nation at war. Tear down. Rebuild. Tear down. Rebuild. Tear down… you get my point.
Why it is our military industrial complex’s preference – I have no idea – especially when they feign the Green New Deal. How “green” is war?
The Nahal Brigade before they left Khan Yunis. They find a storage of 20 tones explosives close to a local hospital.
They blew it up after they dedicated the explosion for a few of their friends who fell in battle. They mention their names in the video. My apology for the inappropriate music. I took the video from Telegam.

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. It smells like … the sounds of fiddles at a square dance. Rock on.
Ted Nugent’s dog crossed over the Rainbow Bridge

Wind turbines.
It looks as if the bird is treating it as a potential landing spot, or just curious perhaps, but it appears that these are not simply killing birds but attracting them, then killing them, en masse.
Our age, should man survive it, will be known as a time of madness.
Wind turbines kill a huge number of raptors annually because they lie in the migration paths. “Green” energy is anti-environmental.
The green cabal care nothing of it – doesn’t fit their narrative: just as the tons of detritus (including human waste) they leave near me, or the heartbreaking number of dogs they abandon at the border are ignored.
That hurt my heart. Why did I watch?

08 April
Omar Bradley
(1893-1981)
American WWII General (Invasion of Normandy) and 1st Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (1949-53), dies of cardiac arrhythmia at 88
Biography: Bradley graduated from the famous West Point Academy class of 1915, known colloquially as the “class the stars fell on”, as it included future colleague Dwight D. Eisenhower and several people who would become high-ranking officers in the military.
During World War I Bradley was involved with guarding copper mines in Butte, Montana. In the interwar period he taught other officers, with positions at West Point and eventually taking a position at the War Department. He later became the commander of the United States Infantry School.
During World War II, Bradley was one of the most senior Allied commanders. He took front-line command in Operation Torch under George S. Patton, and later commanded II Corps in Tunisia and Italy. He then took charge of the First United States Army in Operation Overlord. After that he commanded the single largest unit ever put under a single field commander: Twelfth United States Army Group, comprised of 1.3 million men.
Bradley’s distinguished career continued after the war, serving as the head of the Veterans Administration, the Chief of the United States Army and then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Harry S. Truman and his former World War II boss Dwight D. Eisenhower. He left active service in 1953.
I went to a military show with a buddy and his family @ Grissom AFB up US 31 from Indianapolis in the mid 90’s
Omar Bradley’s personal Limo was there and for sale with just a phone # to call to inquire, got a photo of the Limo somewhere on 2 USB backups that I need to see if I can reclaim my photos off them as microshaft forced update reboot hung and killed both at the same time??? thanks bill.
Probably have it on a DVD somewhere tho newer photos not backed up, other that on those 2 backup devices.
I use Linux now after that episode.
Bradley screwed up big time a couple of times during WW II. Failure to push Monty through Ike to allow Patton’s third Army to close the Falaise gap ended up costing the allies a lot of casualties before the war was over. And secondly, allowing 1st Army commander Hodges to keep feeding fresh US troops into the meat grinder of the Hurtgen Forest where the Germans had every advantage on defense and conditions negated the US forces advantages of superior numbers in armor, superior mobility, and air superiority.
The results being Hitler had more manpower to feed into his “Watch on the Rhine” offensive, and that the high quality 1st Army Infantry divisions were chewed up, tired, and filled with replacements when that offensive was launched.
He forgot, at least at those ‘couple of times) that War is supposed to be fought TO WIN (something that Patton embodied).
I noticed that in the famous “Patton” movie they did not show any of Bradley’s screwups. Only emphasized Patton’s PR “errors.”
Bradley was the advisor for that movie. After Patton’s death his widow published his notes and in those notes, Patton was critical of Bradley for several reasons. From that time on Bradley was less than magnanimous when the subject of Patton came up.
So. Old rivalries / jealousy / revenge …. affected a movie script to alter history or at least people’s perception of history.
Thanks for that background, rah.
One of my first teenage jobs was as a stocker and clerk in one of those “five and dimes”… also where I met and dated (once, bashfully) a young woman who certainly had the looks and form that may have taken Hollywood by storm, had she wished. Rita Lesperance, I hope you had a great life.
Israel Update:
Rumors that Bibi is about to cut a deal that will stop the war with a withdraw.
His right wing partners are saying that if there won’t be a wide scale attack in Rafah there won’t be a government. I mean they will cope with a temporary ceasefire but that’s about it. They say that he has no mandate to stop the war without crushing Hamas as promised.
Right wing TV in Israel are all threats for Bibi to not mess with us. To deliver all that was promised.
Hopefully we are not witnessing a surrender. I mean a surrender to Biden not to Hamas. The same thing.
Maybe Bibi should dust off, read and speak this quote from Menachim Begin in 1982, ironically enough to then-Senator Joe Biden:
At the time, Biden was chastising Begin during a Senate hearing over Israel’s settlement policy in the West Bank, harshly threatening to cut off economic aid to the Jewish state if it did not immediately cease its settlement activities. Begin forcefully replied to Biden in words equally applicable today:
“Don’t threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”
I posted this not long ago. It’s on video.
The leaked deal is 6 weeks ceasefire and withdraw from main cities while having an exchange and a negotiation on future deals before ending this. Hamas wants a complete withdraw and guaranty of no assassinations of the leaders.
We may witness a Hamas stupidity saving us from ourselves. If the do not make concessions.
It is the sheer stupidity of Biden and those pulling his strings that has gotten the world into the mess it is in…may hamas share in the stupidity that is over-flowing and ever-present in the Biden administration.
Yes, ed
Stupidity on the part of the persona that is Biden, but moreso perfidy.
Perfidy as defined:
Deliberate breach of faith; calculated violation of trust; treachery.
The fact of violating faith or allegiance. Violation of a promise or vow.
Biden administration in a nutshell 😔
.
WHERE are these MEN now?
🇮🇱 ❤️ 🙏 ❤️ 🇮🇱 David … Prayers … you asked for prayers in your first post above and I’ve been praying non-stop …
May God protect and comfort and strengthen Israel, the IDF, and her citizens and visitors.
May God provide her Leaders all the wisdom, knowledge, and chutzpah needed to stand and defend victoriously this precious and holy Country, Israel.
Amen 🙏
Shalom and Good Health to all of you. 🎶 🇮🇱
Amen
a surrender to Biden
Truth!
It’s not happening. We shall see.
How I wish Israel would have the intestinal fortitude to say to anyone trying to stop them from defeating their enemies: “Go pound sand! We don’t need your help because the God of Israel fights for us.”
Praying for Israel’s safety and victory.
HIS RESURRECTION DESTINY
“Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory?” Luke xxiv. 26
Our Lord’s Cross is the gateway into His life: His Resurrection means that He has power now to convey His life to me. When I am born again from above, I receive from the Risen Lord His very life.
Our Lord’s Resurrection destiny is to bring “many sons unto glory.” The fulfilling of His destiny gives Him the right to make us sons and daughters of God. We are never in the relationship to God that the Son of God is in; but we are brought by the Son into the relation of sonship. When Our Lord rose from the dead, He rose to an absolutely new life, to a life He did not live before He was incarnate. He rose to a life that had never been before; and His resurrection means for us that we are raised to His risen life, not to our old life. One day we shall have a body like unto His glorious body, but we can know now the efficacy of His resurrection and walk in newness of life. “I would know Him IN THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION.”
“As Thou hast given Him power over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as Thou hast given Him.” “Holy Spirit” is the experimental name for Eternal Life working in human beings here and now. The Holy Spirit is the Deity in proceeding power Who applies the Atonement to our experience. Thank God it is gloriously and majestically true that the Holy Ghost can work in us the very nature of Jesus if we will obey Him.

I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me. – Proverbs 8:17
The idea of spring cleaning makes some people groan. However, as winter ends and houses are opened up to gentle warming breezes, the sunlight flickering off the dust floating in the air tells you spring cleaning time has come! The custom of spring cleaning itself may come from historic Jewish preparations for Passover when homes must be cleaned of any leaven and bread made with yeast, down to the crumbs, collectively called chametz.
One set of instructions for pre-Passover cleaning says you should buy new cookbooks, as you may have accidentally transferred yeast from your fingers onto one of the pages or a bit of it fell from the tip of a toothpick used to determine the doneness of a loaf. In all spring cleaning instructions, the key is to be diligent about it.
God desires diligence from His followers in their pursuit of Him. Be diligent when you study your Bible. Be diligent in your prayer life. Be diligent in joining with others in worship. Be diligent in proclaiming the Gospel. Be diligent in your giving.
Diligence grows out of obedience. An outgrowth of such diligence is righteousness and holiness. J.I. Packer stated, “No Christian drifts into holiness. The flesh is too weak, the devil too deceitful, and the world too alluring.”
He said discipline and diligence are required, adding, “No diligence, no holiness.”
Unlike seasonal cleaning, diligence in pursuit of knowing God needs to be done daily. The psalmist said, “With my whole heart I seek you” (Psalm 119:10).
Samuel Rutherford, a Scottish theologian in the 1800s, wrote, “Oh, if ye saw the beauty of Jesus, and smelled the fragrance of his love, you would run through fire and water to be at him.”
Pray for Christians in America to be diligent in the things of the Lord in such a way as to draw others to Him.

Greetings Treepers!
🙏✝️🙏
And oh, since my area code will experience a total blackout for a few minutes today, I’ll join the banks and school systems in dawning my cheap sunglasses this afternoon. 🕶️
And oh, please pray for GrampaM because he has alot more fools roaming around his turf than I do here. 👀
The clouds above our house parted just a smidgen for a minute at the exact time during the totality so we got a peak at it.
Got a peek at the peak?
LOL! That’s what I get for not proofreading.
Good Monday morning all.
Those of you in TX, LA should look at the convective outlook for the next three days.
https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/
Yesterday I got all the wall hangings up in the large bathroom and the living room and Sherry is happy. I also ordered an oak DVD library cabinet with glass doors so we have easy access. It holds up to 300 DVDs or 600 CDs. We’ll pretty much fill it up with what we have.
Today we have a Green family reunion. It is at an nearly ideal location to get maximum time for totality for observation of the eclipse if the weather allows it. Things not looking too promising right now but we’ll see. Will be leaving early to get there because this area is mobbed by out of town wanna be observers.
Tomorrow, Sherry and I go furniture shopping to furnish the new sun room.
I was in the hospital in SWFL with my husband and his roommate, an elderly non-English speaking Hispanic, was given a Social Security number and signed up for Medicare on the spot.
Oh no 🙁
so the hospitals have been instructed, and green-lighted, for the takeover of over-burdening what’s left of our health care system. Surprised they didnt issue him his first SS check on the spot.
hope your husband feels better soon.
Good Monday morning to my 🌳🏠 friends!
Waiting…for the eclipse! Should happen here around 1:50pm!
The ‘clock’ is ticking. The heavens are on their true course according to Plan even if we humans can’t interpret it correctly. It will be interesting to see if anything at all happens based upon all the fear mongering…it will be either manmade or God Made. Should be easy to tell! Peace and Blessings to each of you! 🙏
Mornin’ all!
💞😂😂🤣
Uh oh 😯
😀
Oops!!!! 🙁
😂
Sundance awol. Did he head North to view the eclipse?
Verse of the Day for Monday, April 8, 2024

“He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.”
John 9:25 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
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.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
BLESSED ARE YOU
Amen – Amen – I say unto you;
Gather together I am with you;
Remember what – for you – I have done;
To ensure you and I live forever as one!
Blessed are you who are poor in spirit;
The Kingdom of God is yours – albeit;
Blessed are you who mourn – in your hearts;
Sweet comfort for you – My Spirit imparts!
Blessed are you who are meek – and lowly;
For you shall inherit the earth – most wholly;
Blessed are you who hunger and thirst;
For righteousness you will be filled and first!
Blessed are you who are merciful – and kind;
Mercy shall be yours – so keep that in mind;
Blessed are you who are purest in heart;
For you will see God from the very start!
Blessed are you who strive to make peace;
As children of God – your joy will not cease;
Blessed are you who are persecuted for right;
The Kingdom of Heaven will be in your sight!
Blessed are you who men revile and persecute;
Relentless for My name’s sake they prosecute;
Saying in all manner of evil you’re defiled;
I will exalt you – you’ll not be beguiled!
Blessed are you who have suffered for Me;
For great your reward in Heaven will be;
As prophets of old suffered greatly as well;
Like them, you profit – your riches will swell!
Be not dismayed – there is right judgment;
Be not distressed – for any begrudge meant;
Know that I see what is hidden from sight;
As in the last days, it is I who is light!
Blessed are you who are faithful and true;
I am He who can see the good that you do;
Truly you are – blessed and holy you be;
Living in paradise – someday with Me!

Psalm 91. The most powerful prayer from the Bible. God’s protection, healing

Israel Update:
Galant the Defense Minister in a talk to new recruits: “There will be difficult decisions, we will be willing to pay a price to return the kidnapped. And return to fight after it- I think that we are at a right point. Every IDF soldier needs to know that the state of Israel is standing behind him when he goes to battle”.
He also said that the decision is with Hamas, it’s not yet a final deal. He also said that we will get to Rafah after the deal to finish the job.
Israeli War Cabinet is meeting in the evening.
Bibi talked with one of the leaders of his right wing coalition parties who could potentially take down the government if the deal is not acceptable. There are two parties like this who are more right than Bibi and could collapse the government.
It looks like a three months ceasefire while the exchange of hostages is done. I am sure that they won’t give everyone without a full guaranty to end the war and no assassinations. So we need to see how many will be released if it happens.
For sure 40. I hope that more. It’s going to be hard to watch the victory celebrations in Gaza and Arab world.
Would be good to see our hostages, young soldiers, including women and injured men return home.
I hope it will not cost more than it’s worth in terms of consequences in the future. We will know more in a day or two. I was also worried about the first deal but it turned out ok at the end and we got most of the children.
Shalom.
In the path
In the path but cloudy. A little under three hours before go time. Not looking good at all.

Very interesting paper on how there have been other maritime incidents…”close calls” most recently in and around American port infrastructure (bridges) all pointing towards their all being asymmetric warfare from the CCP.

Israel Update:
Hamas declined the Israeli American offer.
Bibi said he is not giving up on the goals of the war and there is a date to enter Rafah.
Arabs suggest that Israel is making the problem. I guess not agreeing to end the war and withdraw from Gaza losing the war.

That link causes me problems, too.
I just retype the actual email address without copying the link provided by CTH.
Nope, it did not work. But thanks for trying.
Any other ideas to break through to them?

EVENING PRAYERS
Biden wants to ask the government to pay student debts in order to bribe youth vote. This is BAD IDEA !!!!
1. It won’t bring majority youth vote who are working class and don’t attend college
2. the reason student debt is so high is bc college tuition is too high.
3. And the reason college tuition is so high is bc colleges love to waste tuition money on bloated out -of-control bureaucracies , bloated administration instead of student needs
4. universities love to waste tuition money on construction of more and more unnecessary fancy buildings.
5. I think GOP should fight against paying for the mess, and instead advocate for making universities reign in costs and lower tuition
6. And vast majority of people who do not attend college should not pay taxes to fund college tuition for the minority elites. Biden is abusing working class youth
“3. And the reason college tuition is so high is bc colleges love to waste tuition money on bloated out -of-control bureaucracies …”

City Of Angels
Maggie Rice didn’t believe in angels… until she fell in love with one. Academy Award-winner Nicolas Cage and critically acclaimed actress Meg Ryan star in this romantic tale of an angel who falls in love with a mortal woman in present-day Los Angeles, the City Of Angels. After losing a patient in the operating room for no apparent reason, Dr. Maggie Rice (Ryan–Sleepless in Seattle, Addicted to Love) suffers a crisis of confidence in her ability as a heart surgeon. Seth (Cage–Leaving Las Vegas, Moonstruck), the angel dispatched to comfort the dying man, feels an instant attraction to Maggie and yearns to experience the corporeal world that he can only observe. When Seth materializes and reveals himself to Maggie, her down-to-earth logic clashes with his otherworldly faith. Yet their love for each other grows deeper than either would have believed possible, and Seth must decide whether to give up his status as an angel to live as a human being. Based on the film Der Himmel über Berlin (Wings of Desire).
good movie ♥️
