This new version of the "footprints" story really caught me off guard at the end.....What a blessing. JUST READ IT! [] FOOTPRINTS...A New Version Imagine you and the Lord Jesus are walking down the road together For much of the way, the Lord's footprints go along steadily, consistently, rarely varying the pace. But your footprints are a disorganized stream of zigzags, starts, stops, turnarounds, circles, departures, and returns.. For much of the way, it seems to go like this, but gradually your footprints come more in line with the Lord's, soon paralleling, His consistently. You and Jesus are walking as true friends! This seems perfect, but then an interesting thing happens: Your footprints that once etched the sand next to Jesus' are now walking precisely in His steps. Inside His larger footprints are your smaller ones, you and Jesus are becoming one. This goes on for many miles, but gradually you notice another change. The footprints inside the large footprints seem to grow larger. Eventually they disappear altogether.. There is only one set of footprints. They have become one. This goes on for a long time, but suddenly the second set of footprints is back. This time it seems even worse! Zigzags all over the place. Stops. Starts. Gashes in the sand. A variable mess of prints. You are amazed and shocked. Your dream ends. Now you pray: "Lord, I understand the first scene, with zigzags and fits. I was a new Christian; I was just learning. But You walked on through the storm and helped me learn to walk with You." "That is correct." "And when the smaller footprints were inside of Yours, I was actually learning to walk in Your steps, following You very closely." "Very good. You have understood everything so far." When the smaller footprints grew and filled in Yours, I suppose that I was becoming like You in every way." "Precisely." "So, Lord, was there a regression or something? The footprints separated, and this time it was worse than at first." There is a pause as the Lord answers, with a smile in His voice. "You didn't know? It was then that we danced!" [] To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: A time to weep, a time to laugh, a time to mourn, and a time to dance. Ecclesiastes 3:1,4 It's not WHAT you have in your life, but Who you have in your life that counts... Think about that. I ASKED GOD I asked for a flower, He gave me a garden. I asked for a tree, He gave me a forest . I asked for a river, He gave me an ocean. I asked for a friend, He gave me "YOU." Send this to whomever you think of as a friend.. I did

I heard this today on AFR and was flabergasted-but really this should be no surprise. I am so angry that our leaders will pass a bill without so much as reading it and mandate it on the very people that helped get them elected. Something major needs to happen. Keep writing letters and calling congress and the senate-they need to know we are NOT happy out here in the real world. linda Thank you Linda for suggesting on contacting, our Governors, Senators, congress people.

End of Life Services, PLEASE Read

Here's the deal that we were talking about earlier Tucked nicely 425 pages into this mostly unread plan from hell is a mandatory counseling session for all on social security every 5 years. What is this forced counseling session about??? END OF LIFE SERVICES. Let’s make sure our Moms and Dads, Grandmas and Grandpas are reminded of the glowing option of assisted suicide along with other end of life services. Of course, Obama and his staff can only hope that older masses will eventually be manipulated to end their own lives and free up money for more abortions! Let’s kill them coming in and kill them going out?

Pope calls for "world political authority" Source: www.edmontonjournal.com VATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict on Tuesday called for a "world political authority" to manage the global economy and for more government regulation of national economies to pull the world out of the current crisis and avoid a repeat. Pope calls for world political authority watch Tuesday, 7 July 2009 20:05 Pope Benedict XVI has called for a world political authority to manage the global economy and for more government regulation of national economies. The pope's call for a re-think of the way the world economy is run came in new a encyclical which touches on a number of social issues but whose main connecting thread is how the current crisis has affected both rich and poor nations. Entitled Caritas in Veritate (Charity in Truth), parts of the encyclical appear likely to upset conservatives because of its underlying rejection of unbridled capitalism and unregulated market forces, which he says has led to 'thoroughly destructive' abuse of the system.

AHRC Website Excerpt – Hebrew New Testament The New Testament, or B'riyt HaHhadashah in Hebrew, was written by Hebrews, for Hebrews and within an Hebraic Culture. While the only New Testament manuscripts known to exist are written in Greek, with the possible exception of the book of Matthew, the evidence suggests that much of it was originally written in Hebrew and afterwards translated into Greek. While there are many textual evidences to support this theory, Matthew 5:3 is a good example of this. Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. The Greek word for "poor" is ptochos and means one who is destitute, afflicted, and lacking. What this verse is literally saying is "Blessed are the ones destitute/afflicted/lacking in the spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." This does not make any sense. However, if we translate the Greek word ptochos into Hebrew we have the word aniy which also means destitute, afflicted and lacking. More literally the Hebrew word aniy means "bent down low" such as a poor person who is destitute. But, this Hebrew word can also mean one who is humble, in the same sense of bending down low. Now, if we translate the Hebrew back into English we have, "Blessed are the humble in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." By understanding this passage from its Hebrew background, we are able to better interpret the New Testament Bible.

The quote of the month is by Jay Leno: 'With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?'

Subject: Classic The lone Ranger The Lone Ranger and Tonto went camping in the desert. After they got their tent all set up, both men fell sound asleep. Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, 'Kemo Sabe, look towards sky, what you see? ' 'The Lone Ranger replies, 'I see millions of stars.' 'What that tell you?' asked Tonto. The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says, 'Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning. Theologically, the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What's it tell you, Tonto?' 'You dumber than buffalo waste. It means someone stole the tent. '

Jim Bramlett unsubscribe change email view archive Proof that Obama hides his birth record Jim Bramlett Jul 22, 2009 Obama's first official act as President was to cover up his birth record! Why -- on his busy, very first day in office??? On January 21st, 2009, his very first day in office, Barack Obama implemented and signed into law Executive Order 13489. Take the time to read Executive Order 13489 by clicking on the link in the paragraph above. You will see the official document from the Federal Register bearing Obama's signature. Here is the section that applies: "Sec.2 Notice Of Intent To Disclose Presidential Records When the Archivist provides notice to the incumbent and former Presidents of his intent to disclose Presidential records pursuant to section 1270.46 of the NARA regulations, the Archivist, using any guidelines providied by the incumbent and former Presidents, shall identify any specific materials, the disclosure of which he believes may raise a substantial question of executive privilege." (emphasis added) The White House press secretary, many Members of Congress (both Democrat and Republican, sorry to say), 99% of journalists, and an hysterical gallery of Obama-crazed "experts" continue to claim that those who raise the issue of Obama's legitimacy as the American president are "right-wing nut jobs." Obama's birth certificate, sniff these critics, is a "non-issue." If, however, combative Democrats and duped Republicans actually believe their defense of Obama's legitimacy as a "natural-born citizen" (a qualification for office that is required of any president by the U.S. Constitution), doesn't it strike you as odd that the first order of business Obama took care of on busy Day One of his presidency was to sign off on an Executive Order that only the records HE chooses to be made public will be released? Most normal folks would believe that such a maniacal act of state secrecy for private purposes would be absolute proof that Obama is hiding something. Something very big. Something that would constitute the biggest act of political fraud in the world . . . except for Kenya. –Mike Thompson, former chairman, Florida Conservative Union, 7/22/09 _____________________________________ On this subject, everyone can smell a big rat, except the derelict, lap-dog, state-run, mainstream media and that fair-and-balanced pretender, Fox News.
