Sorry folks, I originally had Tuesday's video and Wednesday's video switched. They're corrected now, but I think I had heat stroke. 🥵

I know that I am an impatient person but surprisingly it was a message like this that actually got me to reflect on inconveniences as possibly being God saving me from Strife or other problems, or that there is something better to strive for. But I have to ask, because my days have been so off since we postponed our vacation due to heat and smoke, it's Tuesday right? I just thought I would check in and make sure you aren't a day ahead of yourself the way I have felt all week. I could have been certain that yesterday was Saturday, for example.

Where are you Papa, for it is only Tuesday today. It is my day to cook dinner.

Amen,and Amen!

Amen, and bless you back!

Thank you Lord for your oceans of grace!❤

I am grateful for the wisdom of age and the appreciation for real beauty that it brings. As for the Tik Tok filter, just coming off of what I think was covid, I would be starting at a very old looking point today but hopefully in a week I've got a bit of a bigger back in my face and my wife is feeling 100% so we can plan a vacation. And I should hurry up and email you to let you know that we are coming your way in August and would love to connect.

I have been loving your teaching on Ruth, excellent!

Such a great message, I so needed it! Thank you and bless you!😊

Amen, bless you!😊

Hi Papa. In 1976, I was 9 years old, I was in Grade 4. it was the Bicentennial Celebration, that year. Our school was decked out with flags, bunting, and Patriotic Decorations, on whatever stood still. The Cafeteria / Assembly Hall (one in the same space) had HUGE models of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights on the Stage. When you came in the door of the cafeteria you turned left along the front of the stage and lined up going into the cafeteria food line, where the matrons of the kitchen cooked fresh lunch every day. Parents paid, by the month, for school lunches. We all had green "food index cards" as we came through the cash and each day, the card would be marked. In 1977 I was 10 and the first Star Wars Movie was released. I was in Connecticut visiting family. I saw the first showing on opening day at the Twin City Theatre. """SURVEY SAID ?????""" Who said that ??

Thank you for spending your energy, breath and voice for us. 😊

Great Video ❤ God bless

Yes and amen!

MOOO COWS !! MOOO COWS !! Do you have what it takes to follow God? Are you committed to this relationship? Do you have the strength and fortitude to follow through, through the good and bad times? If you avoid God, because you don't want to suffer or feel pain and adversity, then you miss the reason that we follow God !!!

I love the story of Ruth, thank you for sharing what each of their names meant.😊

I am glad that you are back and hope that you had a fantastic trip. There are no end of funny church sign slogans out there, one of my favorite being that God is the original Wi-Fi connection. But I think that might be false advertising because I've had my Bible on my desk next to me for ages and it's not getting into my heart by osmosis. I don't see anywhere that I can connect by Bluetooth so I guess that means I should probably start reading, more frequently.

Have a good time!

Such a great word of encouragement! I’m so thankful!

So humbling

Such a profound thought…. Much to ponder!

The Day Thou Gavest Lord, is ended the darkness falls at your behest to you our morning hymns ascended your praise shall hallow now our rest. We thank you that your church, unsleeping while earth rolls onward into light through all the world her watch is keeping and rests not now by day or night As O'er each continent and island the dawn leads on another day the voice of Pray'r is never silent nor dies the strain of praise away The sun, that bids us rest if waking our brethren neath the western sky and hour by hour fresh lips are making your wondrous doing heard on high So be it Lord; your throne shall never like earth's proud empires, pass away but stand and rule and grow forever till all your creatures own your sway. John Ellerton 1870

Hysterical 😂!amen and amen!

I really needed this teaching, thank you!😊

It will cost you everything! So true!! ….thank you for speaking truth! Amen!

Imagine, Mrs. Doubtfire, in the kitchen with a stove full of pots on the burners and she lights her blouse on fire proclaiming "I'm having Hot Flashes !!" Now imagine our fearless Pastor, cooking burgers, as he sets the kitchen on fire due to grease and the live fire burning underneath his pan !!!

Great to see you back and hear it was a good trip.

Bless you and thank you!

And Coloring with your Crayola Crayons !!! And drinking Coffee from my Silver Sippy Cup !!

Oh, that is classy. And classic. I don't know if I'll get a hat like that. But today I put a retro fabric and leather camera strap on a new bag for the new chair. I like the touch of age.
