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 †

Blessed morning, Dan not-so-Deplorable and all our wonderful Treepers in this pilgrimage called life.
In my Bible Study Fellowship, book of Revelation study… we are in week 21 of 30 at the end of the 7th bowl judgement.
From its study notes…
“Believers need not fear that their questions or struggles will remove them from God’s protective care or tender nurturing. However, seeking God and His higher purposes is always the right response to everything we face in life. ”
Our lives are simply out of calibration, out of balance when God is not our focal point… our Lord, our Leader, our Teacher, our Savior, and our Friend.
His Teaching and His Ways are Perfect and lead to peace, redemption, complete fulfillment and eternal joy.
If I disagree with His Teaching, then the error is mine and the only right thing to do is seek further His Word on the matter and agree in humility and love because GOD KNOWS. He Knows what is Good, Honorable, True and Holy. He Knows the way of death and The Way of eternal life.
He Is a Good and Loving Father and Worthy of our eternal praise.
Good Sonday morning, JWoo! It is still morning here in Texas and I am greeting at church. Great sermon today. Extra bonus it’s Holy Communion Sunday and I get to have 2. And I see them. John Wesley used to say that you got to take a communion any chance you get. 🙏🏻✝️🙂
AMEN, brother M. You know Greeters are special, right? They are the gatekeepers of the church and the first person in line to greet someone through the doors who may be having the best… or worst… day of their lives. Greeters are so important as they are the first receivers of those who may be unchurched. You set the tone for each and every person that comes through your church’s doors. Greeters are also integral in the security of the church.
I used to lead a ministry of 36 volunteer greeters for a very large church in Southern California. I was approached about them wearing gloves and I told the person matter-of-factly… if you have to wear gloves to embrace people… you might be in the wrong ministry.
There was a man there, homosexual, gaunt… very sick… not confirmed, but I suspect HIV positive. It was my deepest honor that he always sought me out and I always embraced him with the warmest hug. He was so very dear to me during my time there.
I miss my service with the church so very much, but sadly can’t find one here who boldly leads and doesn’t suppress their churchgoers to blindly follow the kabal. I won’t put Savannah or me under their authority. As for me and my house, we will serve The Lord. We believe in The Holy Spirit and the giftings He administers on behalf of The Lord. A sound church must teach those things and never hold their membership in bondage by emasculating their men and silencing their women.
There is FREEDOM in THE LORD and it is important that we be equipped with the powerful tools God gives us to fight evil. We are not meek and helpless. We are conquerers and we boldly can speak in Jesus’s Name and at the Name of Jesus, the devil must flee.
Bless you so much in your faithful service. Just love you and your family so much. Honored by your friendship, brother, and honored to watch you lead your family from my small vantage point.
JWoo, thank you for the kind words. In our little church greeting and security are combined. 🙂 And God’s Word is being preached every time.
Love and blessings to you and Savannah!
That should have been “and I need them”. Autocorrect…
. . . but deliver us from the Evil One.
The Jesus Prayer
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.
Amen!
Prayer of Saint Ioannikios the Great of Bithynia (+ 846)
My hope is the Father, my refuge the Son, my protection the Holy Spirit. O Holy Trinity, glory to Thee.
From Small Compline
Rejoice, Virgin Theotokos, Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, for thou hast borne the Savior of our souls. (Thrice)
“Learn always to remember and to pronounce the name of God with great faith, reverence, love, and a grateful heart. Never pronounce it heedlessly.”

Sunday of Cheesefare
Forgiveness Sunday
Great Lent in the Orthodox Christian Church begins tomorrow, Clean Monday.
May God grant me the gift of forgiving specific people and repenting of holding grudges.
Sunday of Cheesefare
“On this same day, we commemorate the banishment of Adam, the First-formed man, from the Paradise of delight.”
From the Synaxaria of the Triodion
Breathtaking. 👊✝️👊
This is our customary Treeper Church Sunday benediction. We post it here as a way of inviting our friends and visitors to experience the soulful experience of solace. This is intentionally a quiet place. We hope the presence of Our Lord will inspire a little faith. Our Lord loves us and want’s us to be a part of His Family. All it takes to do this is our personal acceptance of Him. Do this and you are in . .
May the Lord bless this treehouse and all of her treepers… and particularly “Reverend” Garrison Hall for his weekly reminder of our devotions to the Lord as well as our country
AMEN benzy
A bit late getting here today, benazy . . . Thanks for your kind words. Hope you’ve had a blessed day, my friend. 🙂
what a lovely way to start the day my dear treeper Garrison.
I love the beautiful circle of angelic voices. Peace
So happy to read this, friend light. Be well and be blessed friend. 🙂
Good Sunday morning, Garrison!

good evening/morning open thread …. ♥️
the stars are extra beautiful tonight up in the night sky ♥️
I met up with Maynard Ferguson and his drummer one night. I told them I wanted to be in the band. The drummer said…. “I don’t think our insurance will cover that.”
I thought that was really funny and humbling at the same time. I was only 16 years old, but at that age you think you can do anything.
One of my very favorites right here….
reed walker
where ?!
I think you’re right.
Hope so!
reed walker,
-is it you?
The drummer was actually David Miller who was playing with the Woody Herman Orchestra too.
Greetings Treepers! 🙏✝️🙏

Morning, bro!
Heh…here is a special one from me, I think we are twins 😛
Courageous servant of God, Archbishop Vigano shared this exclusive message concerning recent events surrounding “Jorge Mario Bergoglio”
.I tell you, if these are silent, the stones will cry out. Lk 19:40
Lk 19:40https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/03/archbishop-viganos-warning-usurper-throne-st-peter/
Wow! May Almighty God protect Archbishop Vigano. In Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen.
I’m starting to think it’s wise for the US to start pulling troops and their families out of Europe.
Unannounced.
Leave only enough troops and gear to ensure we stay in control of the real estate we died for in previous wars.
Maybe the western European nations will start to appreciate the American troops and the dollars families spend over there.
Maybe they will start to feel the pressure to protect their own national interests.
We all know what Henry Huckem says. 👊✝️👊
A big week ahead for me as I make a gigantic move for my account on Lotro…I shall leave my beloved Shire and go to a different server where I will place 44 characters. I began packing all of them plumb full of junk to carry with me, I so hope it all goes well. I will leave this for you to listen, cause it kinda like Im starting a journey to a wonderful adventure just like Frodo and Samwise.
Lord Of The Rings: Concerning Hobbits
Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship’s Theme
LOTRO, I played it and remember it well. 😉 There is something about good fantasy, and a good fantasy story, that speaks to that creative, imaginative spark the Lord placed in all of us.

https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2025/03/01/zelensky-hugged-by-uk-pm-starmer-who-vows-to-stand-with-ukraine-as-long-as-it-may-take/
Starmer can’t see to get anything right.
LOL! Macron and Starmer are still it the stage of denial. They think that they can drag the US into it using Article 5 of the NATO charter, but Ukraine is not a NATO nation so Article 5 does not apply. They are so desperate.
And then there is the threat that now Ukraine will bring China in to help them. Too funny!
So I went looking at the Mac to see what I could see…
Check out the Mac mini 😛
https://www.apple.com/mac-mini/
Cons: Requires one to have, or to purchase, a display, keyboard, and mouse. Depending on the desired configuration, it may be more cost-effective to purchase an iMac with its integrated display and bundled high-quality keyboard and input devices.
I have a device that accepts all my input devices (televison(HDMI)=monitor, ethernet, keyboard, mouse, usb, thunderbolt) so need to worry bout all that stuff. Besides I bought a allinone like the iMac and it seemed to produce a jittery touch when I would work on it. I dont use voice or touch on any electronics, so that eliminates the 3 pads and 2 phones that I own. I do use my Mac tower and Macbook for other thingys cept playing my game. I had to revert back to Windows to be able to play, but have called that laptop a toy cause its smaller than my iPad 😛 You might say Im a geek in some ways, but I’ve been in electronics for over 30 years…in fact I use to build those big monster gaming machines and still have a few of those running around the house somewhere.
Have a wonderful and blessed Sunday all.
Here is the link to the Saturday Summary. As usual scroll down. Jump to the 15:55 mark for the actual forecast discussion. Everything before that is historical stuff of interest to people like me, but not to most of you I think.

We just watched the successful landing of the Firefly lander on the surface of the moon.
Very good presentation from the Mission Control Center in Cedar Park, Texas.
Surprised it wasn’t covered more widely in the USA.
Below is the link to the presentation. In a few hours there will be a news conference with HD pictures
Very proud of the Texas based team that worked on the project.
It is a commercial venture that is working with President Trump’s MAGA / America First NASA organization.
MAGA, not just our motto, it is our duty.

My son, Matthew, is currently very sick in the ICU in Florida. Please pray for healing for him. I feel so lost right now. I’m sitting home praying for him with his dog who really misses him. I thought of this website that I come to sometimes with really kind, faithful people who will pray for others. Thank you.
Heavenly Father, I lift Marys son who is suffering from illness to You. Grant him Your comfort and solace, replacing his pain with hope and joy. Surround him with supportive friends and family, who can offer love and encouragement during this difficult time. Let him feel Your presence and assurance, knowing that healing is possible through Your grace. I pray that his faith strengthens, and he embrace the journey toward recovery with courage.
Amen.
☘️
Prayers up for Matthew’s healing and for you and all the family.
I’ll whisper prayers.

Prayer sent, may all turn out well.
Prayers for Matthew’s healing. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
PRAYERS UP FOR MATTHEW AND FAMILY – 🙏🙏🙏
For your son may it be our Lords will for a quick and speedy recovery. In His name and glory we pray! 🙏🏽❤️
Praying for you, too, as you wait with your mother’s heart and Matthew’s pup awaits his father to come home.
Father God be merciful and may Matthew’s testimony grow to Your Lovingkindness and Divine Healing.
In Jesus’s Holy and Saving Name, Mary. We are honored to pray for your son.
Lord God, please extend your hand of mercy to Matthew. There is nothing too hard for you, please make him whole. We ask this is Jesus’ name, amen.
Praying, Mary.
Praying.

Good Sunday morning All!
Usually its the cardinals that spy their image in the car side rear view mirror and attempt to drive off the interloper. This year its the bluebirds. They make quite the mess down the side of the door and leave smears on the glass. Plastic grocers bags can be tied over the mirror but usually they still attack their reflection in the car window.
Pam Blondie like the little birdie?
“she has one eye on the mirror as she watched herself cavort….”
Good morning, Monti!
Good Sunday morning to you GrandpaM!
We had pictures on one of our trail cameras of a bluebird attacking the trail camera. At least any mess he made was out in the woods and not down the side of my car.
Very good news for me. I have been struggling with the onset of Rheumatoid arthritis for a few months now. I was told it was a year plus to get into a Rheumatoid specialist. Both my parents suffered with it and was put on Hydroxychloroquine and they took it for over 20 years. I decided to begin taking it (200mg/day), and after just 2 weeks, the morning pain and stiffness has greatly subsided…yahoo! Now I can just hope that RFK jr will instruct the FDA to put it and Ivermectin over the counter so I don’t have to buy it from India at double the cost.
Praise the Lord!
Good to hear.
Hear hear! Well said.
Write to him and suggest it. With RFK Jr in charge maybe it will actually happen. That freeing up of Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin would be a blessing for so many people.
EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE
Verse of the Day for Sunday, March 2, 2025
✟
“The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.”
Proverbs 28:1 (KJV)
Gill’s Exposition
Proverbs 28:1
The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.
The wicked flee when no man pursueth,…. Through the terrors of a guilty conscience, as in Cain and others; who fear where no immediate cause of fear is, are frightened with their own shadows; and as Gaal was with the shadow of the mountains, he took for an army of men, as his friend told him, Judges 9:36; they are chased with the sound of a shaken leaf, and fancy men are at their heels to destroy them, and therefore with all haste flee to some place of safety; see Leviticus 26:1; but the righteous are bold as a lion; which turns not away from any creature it meets with, nor mends its pace when it is pursued, but walks on intrepidly, and oftentimes lies down and sleeps in open places, and as securely as in woods and dens, being devoid of all fear; hence the heart of a valiant man is said to be as the heart of a lion, 2 Samuel 17:1; see Proverbs 30:3; so Pindar (z) compares a courageous man to a lion for boldness. Now righteous men are as bold as this creature, or more so; some of them have stopped the mouths of lions, and have dwelt securely in the midst of them, as righteous Daniel: and all righteous men are or may be as fearless as the lion; fear God they do, but have no reason to fear any other; and many of them are fearless of men, of their menaces and reproaches, or of anything they can do to them; since not only angels are their guardians, but God is on their side, and Christ has overcome the world for them: they are fearless of Satan and his principalities; they are delivered out of his hands; they know he is a coward, though a roaring lion, and when resisted will flee from thorn; yea, that he is a chained, conquered, enemy: and, though they are afraid of committing sin, yet are fearless of the damning power of it; Christ having bore their sins, made satisfaction for thong; for whose sake they are pardoned; and whose righteousness justifies and blood cleanses from all sin: they are fearless of death; its sting being removed, itself abolished as a penal evil, and become a blessing, and is the righteous man’s, gain: they are fearless of wrath to come; Christ having delivered them from it, and they being justified by his blood: they are courageous as the lion in fighting the Lord’s battles with sin, Satan, and the world, and in enduring hardiness as good soldiers of Christ; knowing their cause is good, that Christ is the Captain of their salvation, their spiritual armour is proved, and they are sure of victory and of a crown They are “confident” (a) as the lion, as the word may he rendered; they are confident of the love of God, of their interest in Christ, of the grace of God in their hearts, and that all things work together for their good; and that it is, and always will be, well with them, let things go how they will in the world, and so are secure. They are bold and undaunted, both before God and men; before God in prayer, knowing him to be their covenant God in Christ, having in view the blood and righteousness of Christ, and being assisted by his Spirit: and they are undaunted before men; if the righteous man is a minister of the word, he speaks it boldly, as it ought to be spoken, fearing the faces of none, knowing it to be the Gospel of Christ, the truth, as it is in him, and the power of God to salvation; and if a private Christian, he is a public professor of Christ, this word and ordinances, which he is not ashamed to own before all the world; in short, the righteous are bold in life and in death, and will be so in the day of judgment; and it is their righteousness which makes them so, from which they are denominated righteous, even not their own, but the righteousness of Christ.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
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.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ABUSED, MISSING, AND TRAFFICKED CHILDREN
BE MY VOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
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.
GUARDIAN ANGEL PRAYER
A common prayer to your guardian angel is: “Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.” This prayer expresses gratitude and asks for protection and guidance throughout the day.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
MAPA = MAKE AMERICA PRAY AGAIN
THE FEAR FACADE
Of what are you fearful – unsure today?
What makes you tremble – what keeps you at bay?
What bothers you – disturbs your peace at night?
What gives you pause – and puts out your light?
It might be unseen – the unknown that shakes;
The out of control – the unbalanced that quakes;
It could be the undeniable belief;
There is nowhere to go – to get some relief!
Your mind is racing – your heart beating fast;
You wonder how long fearfulness will last;
Release me – Oh, Lord – from the grasp of fear;
Come; Calm me – Oh, Lord – Come, quickly near!
What does this fear come stealthily to take?
How does it disturb – in the night keep awake?
What gives it power o’er what you partake?
Why would you give in – why would you forsake?
The hold that fear can have over its prey;
Is the unbelief that faith takes away;
The opposite of fear is truly belief;
And it is our faith that provides the relief!
What happened to Peter when his faith failed?
His footing gave way – in the water he flailed;
What happens to us when of little faith?
We fall prey to a spirit – of haunting wraith!
Fear can be daunting – paralyzing – haunting;
It can cause us to hold back – be less flaunting;
We will definitely hide all our gifts inside;
Where His Spirit is willing and wants to reside!
The love that we have to give will be thwarted;
As we draw into ourselves – love is hoarded
From the love of God we have truly withdrawn;
From the embrace of another woebegone!
What must we do to eliminate fear?
We must repent and draw His Spirit near;
We must fast – we must pray – the fear away;
For where faith increases – fear cannot stay!

HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY !!! ❤️❤️❤️
ANGELS
ANGEL OF GOD
Angel of God come visit with me
For lost and lonely I seem to be
Left alone without the love of my bubby
He was my joy – he was my hubby
My heart hurts my head is pounding
My internal screams have no sounding
Emotionally exhausted I fall asleep
The pain is constant and oh so deep
Thank You, Lord, for music that soothes
It comforts and calms my soul it moves
My daily companion it has become
To its rhythm and cadence therefrom
I reach out to My Angel to lift me up
Steer me toward the blessing cup
This emptiness just will not go away
I need some semblance of him today
Send me a memory and make me smile
Give me the joy of his presence for awhile
Let me feel the warmth of his arms around
An expression of his love overtly abound
Help me feel grateful for the many years
Through the laughter, trials, and the tears
Through the challenges and the struggles
Accompanied by smooches and huggles
Help me to find happy once again
Even for a moment beyond the pain
Help me recall his spirit is alive
He can help me to revive and to thrive
It is as if he is still here by my side
Odd is it not from him I cannot hide
I can envision his face his surprise
As I stumble, fall, and then, arise
Oh, Lord, I do miss him so
Without him I have lost my mojo
I am clumsy I have lost my footing
Oh, the things I do to keep from looking
I shower I eat I dress and I work
Mechanically now I see him smirk
The joy in my life is nonexistent
The flow in my life is inconsistent
Ah but now that you are finally here
I can feel your spirit my hubby dear
You comfort me like no other can
Just as you did when our life began
D01: 10/24/2022

AN ANGEL AMONG US
Have you seen her as she flitters nigh
With a wink and a nod she flies by
A querp and a blerp she tosses at you
As you scroll on down to grab a quick view
Little do you know the weight she carries daily
On the back of her frail body of merely eighty
For forty long years she has born the burden
Of caring for one so frail where it occurred in
We cannot imagine the twists and turns
She has engineered for the peace she yearns
Every stitch she has sewn and machine repair
Attests to undeniable love and care
He has lifted her up and carried her thru
Many challenges and frustrations anew
And yet her determination rarely falters
As she prays unceasingly her daily psalters
She’s a Prayer Warrior down on her knees
Petitioning God to come to her aid please
Battling powers and principalities
Demonic obstructions and beastialities
Through disappointments and deficiencies
She struggles to maintain efficiencies
All the while apprising to those around
Singing her praises His blessings abound
We thank You, Lord, for this heavenly gift
Who daily and lovingly gives us a lift
Whose determination/perseverance
Runs brave and stalwart interference
An Angel Among Us she most truly is
Flittering and Twittering thru the whiz
Keep your eyes open for a blessing blight
Lest you miss her midway into her flight

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.
Amen.

Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praise to your name, Most High,
to proclaim your kindness at dawn
and your faithfulness throughout the night.
Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
The just one shall flourish like the palm tree,
like a cedar of Lebanon shall he grow.
They that are planted in the house of the Lord
shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
They shall bear fruit even in old age;
vigorous and sturdy shall they be,
declaring how just is the Lord,
my rock, in whom there is no wrong.
Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.
Wishing my wonderful Treeper companions a Beautiful Sunday Morning

I have a teaser for oldsters … this poem predates the internet. I’m wondering if anyone remembers the poem and can supply missing words.
Monday is blue – sometimes turning to purple after 5 or 5:30 as the case might be
tTesday is …
Wednesday is green
Thursday is …
Friday is black – all day. it does not change color
Saturday is red – a bright red, a swinging red, red Saturday
Sunday is white – all day. a pure white that only Sunday can be
Oh, well, I am ever hopeful that one day I’ll be able to complete the poem. ‘scuse my attempt to correct Tuesday spelling – sigh
Love you all
ms Idaho, hope this has been a pleasant day💞
Have tried to find your poem to no avail; darn!
pleasant day – YES! Nice enough that I went out walking twice. Thank you very much. Hope you are getting some spring – some early flowers pushing thru to the sun?
Re: poem – as I said, pre-internet. My only hope is maybe another ‘oldster’ will have heard / read it. Or maybe a creative soul will fill in the missing words and we’ll have a complete colorful week to celebrate?
I mean = what color does Tuesday – the day after Blue Monday – feel like?
And what color is Thursday (cursda) ??
Thinking / feeling caps firmly n place?
I found this … dunno that it helps any

As for me … I like blue no matter what color it is 🤣
Okay the search I did has different colors according to the country/culture.
But also to add color to your calendar for that day of the week.
I couldnt find much in the way of a poem.
Most that I found was to structure the color code of your calendar/desktop in the computer for the day of the week.
So maybe you were setting up a mood thingy on your puter? 😛
Thanks for the effort.
No, it was just one of those ‘things’ I clipped an kept for many years.
When we became full time RVers in 2002 lots of ‘stuff’ went the way of things ‘not kept’
Except … the memory. I collected many scraps in 83 years
Here is a sad example of my sister-in-law that did the clippings all her life, then when they sold the house…the first thing that was thrown out were all those clippings. 🙁 It made me sad to think that one day, all my M&Ms novelties will be treated the same way one day in the near future.
yup – know the feeling well.
I copied CDs, tapes and records / mp3 files
I typed a lot and scanned a lot of paper
I had a huge collection of art work I had done – gone
we had a fair collection of ‘collectables’, worth only what someone will pay for an item – donated or let go for pennies.
well – you get the idea.
I guess ‘the rest of the story’ now is that with Doc gone my life is simple. I don’t have a house full of ‘memories’, tho I do have memories.
Bare necessities only

Oh – Yeah!
So – what color is Tuesday?
What color is Thursday?

This little lady led tens of thousands of people in prayer and music worship with the TobyMac Hits Deep tour on Friday in Indianapolis.
She has a beautiful voice and LORD ALMIGHTY how much did we enjoy this concert.
We were surrounded and adopted by a youth group from a Nazarene church located an hour from Indy.
Those young teenagers EMBOLDENED and ENCOURAGED my heart. It was AHHH-MAZ-ING. They were so sweet and our seats were a bit difficult to get into in the nosebleeds.. they held our things and arms to help us safely over the obstacles. These teenagers looked after us and they were so interested in Savannah. Wished they were closer so she could join their youth group. Godly kids speak volumes.
Lord, God, Father.. bless their sweet lives and their aspirations as they set their eyes and minds and futures on You. Give them clear direction, joy, and fulfillment in all their ways, as they seek to bring You Honor and Glory and Worship forevermore. With their lifeblood help them serve in their communities and professions to bring peace and Spiritual growth to our societies and to replenish our world with Praise to You, The Alpha and The Omega, The Beginning and The End. I pray them good health, sound mind, and peace. In Jesus’s Holy and Saving Name, AMEN
Honestly, We Just Need Jesus – Terrian
God With Us – Terrian
I enjoy Terrian’s music! It’s so contemporary yet worshipful. You don’t have to guess who Terrian is lifting up with her music – she’s not chasing a grammy, she’s ministering. God bless her and musicians like her who remember that “we just need Jesus” and so that is exactly what they offer.

Jonrilus,
We are of the same thoughts, friend. I really enjoy your posts and your pointing to Jesus. Did you know, that in Revelation it reads of the 144,000 saved in the end times that they will be taught a new song that only they will know the words to and they will sing it for God on His Throne.
Music has its Divine Place in Worship. Oftentimes, I hear lyrics that speak so eloquently and purely the condition of my heart. Being a former singer myself – I remember that singing was my only venue to effectively express myself and though, at the time, I was diminutive and extremely introversive… when I sang I belted out confidence.
Now, I do not sing publicly… only to myself, to my daughter, and our cats… for a while with Covid, I lost my voice for four months and could only speak (squeak) in one octave. I wept bitterly thinking I could no longer use my voice in praise to Him.
I can’t wait… CAN’T WAIT…. to be in His Presence in Heaven and to worship Him along with the choir of angels.
Can we imagine being inside of these song writer’s bodies and minds as The Holy Spirit brings them music pieced together in their minds… to be transferred to paper… interpreted and pieced together by musicians? What a glorious Engineer our Father Is to create such loveliness.
I am in awe every day. I see Him in every little thing, every day! God makes me want to SING AND DANCE AND PRAISE!
Let’s jam!
TobyMac – Everything
Ezekiel 33:8 when I say unto the wicked, oh wicked man thou shalt surely die; if thou doesn’t not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at thine hand.
The church are the watchmen, how can a gay man or woman, a transgender be in the church unless that group is an abomination? We speak the truth and it is a medicine to those who hear but who will be saved if the truth is not spoken?
society today is far from the lord and our achievements cannot be advantageous unless God is our lord.
The slow progression of sin in our society has started with sex out of marriage and has progressed to what we see now. Sex is not recreational unless within a marriage. And marriage is only void by an act of infidelity, even that is not worthy in Gods eyes for all of us believers have cheated on Jesus, he has never left us.
Thank God for our lives, our families, gifts and talents, our freedoms, our work, and HIS love for us, through Jesus Christ.
I wish!
And I think my pups are demanding?

Revelation 7:1-4

After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: “Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.” Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel.
Making sense.

I’m listening now! They touch on our society and how we just sabotage it. Love of money the root of all evil.
Exercise to try. Imagine a world not driven by wealth and power, just the desire to accomplish what is in your heart. Take all the influences away except the desire to achieve what God has for you. Our world would be so different.

‘How the Elite rigged Society (and why it’s falling apart)’ | David Brooks
Mixing lies with Truth;
AND ‘Artful Paltering’ = lying with facts;
AND gaslighting;
AND projection.
I find this an exceptionally good example of those AND ultimately, of Mind Programming (the short talk’s purpose, imo);
very instructive; *recognize the ugly Truths he admits* (ie. ‘rich kids’/Spiritual transformation, poverty, etc.)
– he says very ugly things about Trump/Hegseth/Vance/Miller/Musk’s agenda so *disclaimer* there… because he’s opposition (ie. noting the current agenda/audit/exposing corruption/cutting WF&A/is not “healthy”, not ‘conservative’, OR ‘constitutional’; “Trump is declaring war on Christians in gov’t. who are Truly ‘helping the poor'”etc.)
Apparently “‘society’ (which the elite rigged) is falling apart” because Trump (bringing Sunlight) and it’s a very very very bad thing/not ‘conservative’ or ‘Moral’.
BUT…
very educational re: the forked-tongue tactics of satanic manipulation with language, propaganda, godless belief system/worldview, etc….
just notice how smoothly, slickly, & seamlessly he weaves these Truths & lies all together as if all is Pure *Moral* Truth –
this helps me recognize it & show it to others whenever/wherever I hear it anywhere in the wild
Starts off by being funny & ‘personable’ – reeling people in > winds around to
“Culture changes when a small group of people find a better way to live, and the rest of us copy” – 1000 is his number
(are there 1000 trans rights cutout ‘groups’/brainwashed doctors/profiteers/useful-idiot supporters… yes definitely at least 1000 in each category)
Dear Jesus… Light these people up so we can all see them clearly, recognize them, & expose them.

You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.
