Morning Devotional...


Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.  
Eph.  6:10

I sought for a man. . . to stand in the gap before Me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.
Ezekiel 22:30

Even the greatest men have their flaws.

With Jacob it was weakness of faith, having to resort to deception to receive the blessing.

With David it was weakness of flesh, as he sought gratification with another man's wife. Yet they did great things for God.

One was known as the apple of God's eye, the other was a man after God's own heart.

We, too, are flawed, by our sinful nature.

Yet God in His grace still seeks for men and women to stand in the gap, to live lives pleasing to Him, and purposing to do His will.
--C. Tempest

Dare to be a Daniel was one of my father's most favorite hymns and we sang it at his funeral.  He was definitely a "Daniel".

Hello all!  I've got good news, bad news, good news, bad news, etc. etc. 

Good news --  My wonderful husband has done something else to the computer, so the Internet is working nicely now.  I should be able to post "normally" again.

Bad news -- All of my posting has to be done at home, now.  No fast connection from work.

Good news -- I have more time to spend on my Mary Kay and with Travis.

Bad news -- I don't have a job until July 1.

Good news -- I don't have a job until July 1. :-P

I really do apologize again for being so scarce the past few weeks.   When it takes four or five minutes for a page to load, it's just not practical to post a lot.  Tomorrow is super busy, but I'll try to get in tomorrow evening sometime.

Take care ya'll!

Goodmorning All 11.06 in Holland

Pat thank you for the devotional this morning and all the hymns yesterday and this morning


KARMAT i am sorry to read that you have no work more i hope you can find soon new work but in Holland it is very diffucult to find work every month more people have no more work.

What it is be tomorrow on my son's birthday yesterday is the daughter from my sister in law which is married with my brother gone to the hospital they don't no what she have she has feever pain in here
abdomen and here blood is not good.
Today new research but my brother is my son's Marcel only's uncle.

  2 Corinthians 1 : 24
It is by faith you stand firm.

                    FAITH

                   Faith does not expect
                to have all questions answered...
                   Faith celebrates the search
                and rejoices in life's journey.

Love and prayerfully for you all

HEARTLIGHT DEVOTIONAL:

Amos 5 : 14 NIV
Seek good, not evil, that you may live.
Then the Lord God Almighty will be with you,
just as you say He is.

Many illicit and evil groups have claimed to have
God on their side.
Horrific things have been done under the disguise
of a "Christian" movement.
Jesus, however, told us we could recognize people
their fruit. Those who seek good and abhor evil
and those who practice justice and mercy are
the ones who have God with them. Let's make
sure our claim of God's precense is matched
by the precense of God's character in our lives!

Prayer
Almighty God and loving Fahter,
thank you for your precense in my life.
Please forgive me when i let sin and
selfishness crowd you out and bring
reproach to your name.
Empower me with your Holy Spirit to live
as your holy child while displaying your
righteous character to the world.
In Jesus name i pray    AMEN.

Ria

Good morning, friends,

My daughter just phoned and we had a nice little chat.

I hope Marcel enjoys a wonderful birthday, Ria.

Karmat, I certainly understand about slow computers. After my son moved here to the house, we pooled our dial up internet money and got cable modem, then h`1e was able to network the computers, and it certain is `faster.

There are more than 14,000 employees as our company world wide, so the only internet access allowed at work is for business purposes. I can only try to imagine the amount of traffic that goes over those lines!

Pat, I've so often thought of that verse where a man was needed to "stand in the gap." Thanks for that reminder that, though imperfect by far, each of us has a place in the Kingdom.

Y'all have a good day.

Ruth Ann

Good morning all!!

Ria, work is hard to find here, as well.  Fortunately, I don't have to go out and search for a job.  I can do some other stuff (tutoring homeschoolers, selling Mary Kay cosmetics.  My job should start back in July.  I really do feel for those that are out of work and have to support a family.  That would be very discouraging, I would think.

I hope you all have a wonderful day.  It is beautiful here, but thunderstorms are being called for later this afternoon.  We are super busy today, but I wanted to pop in as we were starting our day.

To all the people who have joined in the past week or so -- a big welcome to you.  Sorry I didn't welcome you individually as you "entered."  I look forward to "getting to know" you, and I think you will really enjoy CP.

Good morning!  I didn't go swim today as I had one of "those" nights again.  Also needed to cook breakfast for Darrel so he could leave early to go install an alarm system in Guymon, Oklahoma.  We are in the process of selling the alarm company to my nephew, Lance, and are praying all goes well with that this time.  This is the fourth time we have thought we had a buyer.  So far, Lance is excited about it, and is out trying to sell systems, and is learning to install, too.

Tonight is the banquet.  Diane and Abby are coming to go with me.  Beth has decided not to go.  I have lots to do today, besides helping finish up the decorating.  We have to put on the tablecloths, the centerpieces, fill the mint/nut containers, put the placemats down, etc.  All of this can't be done until after the noon meal is served today.

My sister is still having so much pain, but thinks she is improving little by little.  Doctors should warn people that those drugs can ruin their lives!  Some people have wound up in wheelchairs because of taking Lipitor.  >:(

Karma, nice to hear a bit more from you.  I understand about the slow loading problem.  When I first started using Darrel's old computer, I used to read several pages of a book while things were loading, and sometimes even fell asleep!  :-\  We get used to speed!!  Quickly!!

Hello Ria!  Hope you have a great day!

Hi, dear Pat.  Love you!

Hello, Ruth Ann.  How is your son feeling these days?  I hope much better.

I will get busy and come back later if possible.  Many errands to do plus work I have let slide while decorating!

How are you all today?

Last year on May 14, we had 61 messages posted in New Every Morning and on May 13 last year, we had over 90!!

Please share with us all if you have any idea why our posts have done a belly-flop!  LOL  We have more members and yet our messages on the site are going Down---Down---Down.

Is there something that we are doing differently?


I hope that you have a great day today.

I have an Avon order to pack.  Then tomorrow morning, Andrew and Terena have invited me to the Annual Family Breakfast that their little church has annually.  Jack and I used to go to that church so we know most of the folk who will be going.

What are your plans for the weekend?

I hope it's going to be a lovely one for you...whatever you are doing and wherever you are. 

And don't forget to take your camera, Al Moak!

Here is a grin for you!

THE auto auction I attended was selling cars to benefit charity. Vehicles were classified as either "Running" or "No Start." On the block was a No Starter. It had a shattered windshield, two missing tires, a sagging front bumper, a cockeyed grille, a hood that was sprung up at an angle, and dings and dents all over the body. Before he started the bidding, the auctioneer announced the car's year, make and model, and then read the owner's comments: "Please note - the radio does not work."   
              -----From Readers Digest

Hey AL look at what Pat said to you. I didn't even have to tell onyou that you didn't take your camera to the Mini Bash even after I reminded you.

Pat, Do you think our posts are down because it is spring and more people are going out on family outings, it's almost summer.

There are a lot of graduations going on and other things. Savannah has a gymnastics meet on the 22nd, it is her first one, She has been in gymnastics since she was 4 yrs. old.

Karma how nice to see you here bright and early this morning. So happy that you will be around more. Hope you sell lots of Mary Kay.

Janet, you are selling your business Huh? Is Darrell Retiring?? What are your plans after it is sold?

Pat I posted 2 new photos of Bebe in "The Hiding Place" thread after you and Janet posted there.

Ummm...  It was spring last year too.  LOL

Everyone who joined us this week I can't remember all the names so I am not going to post the ones I do remember for fear of leaving someone out. We are so glad to have you here. Now start posting and telling us all about yourselves.

Well, that made me laugh right out loud here!!!  Thanks Janet!

 ::) I guess you are right Pat, Spring comes every year. ;D

Good morning everyone.  Is this Friday already?  Time is going by so fast.

Karmat, I'm glad that at least you look forward to your job in July.  I can remember when I was a young boy the time of depression when so many people were out of work.  Things are not that bad today but for a person who is out of work it is just as bad. 

I am retired now but sometimes there isn't much difference between retirement and being unemployed.  Fortunately with our Social Security we get along fine.

QuoteFrom Ria:  FAITH

Faith does not expect

Ria, thank you for this verse.  It is so true that faith causes us to believe even though we DON'T know all the answers. 

Heb 11:1  Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

Heb 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.  (NIV)

Let's remain focussed upon the Lord.  Never mind the number of posts.  It'll go up.  It'll go down.  But are we pleasing to HIM?  That's the important thing.  Leave the rest to Him.

Thanks Al!

ON THE NUMBER OF POSTS:  I agree with Al, don't focus on the number of posts. 

"I know, I know," we receive confirmation of "How we're doing" by people's praise...errrr....posts.

We can't help it, we're just that way and funny thing, God made us that way.  Whatta joke he played on us.  Jus kiddin, jus kiddin.

Think about it....God made us, right?  And God doesn't make mistakes, right?

So if He made us and He doesn't make mistakes.....Then when He created us, desirous of praise from our fellow man, He did it for a purpose.

When our fellow men do not fulfill our need for a pat on the back....who gives us one?  RIGHT!

I said all that to say this....one Sunday, I had taught the worst Sunday School class I had ever taught.  I walked out of that class feeling lower than an ant in a ditch.

I wasn't going to quit, but I sure was discouraged and feeling very bad over my failure to connect to anyone that day (or so I thought.)

After church, a person came up to me and told me it was a very good class.  She also explained how it was and why.  Now, instead of being a failure (or so I thought), I'm soaring!!!

So, why was I so dependent on personal praise?  It was what I had to use as a gage to let me know how I was doing.

And to be blatiently honest and bear my soul, I want people to like me and what I do.....

SO PAT, what does that say to you?  Not much, except that I too, am pretty much like you.  In that I want things that I'm involved in to succeed.  I want to do great things for Him.

And while the number of posts is a gage to success, it can be miss leading.  Maybe, just maybe...someone read something on this site....and never responded to it....and now, you'll never know it....until THAT DAY.

I think of the Ray Boltz song, "Thank You."
"Thank you, for giving to the Lord."  That kid that was saved because of money you gave towards the mission field...that invitation that you gave in Sunday School....The life that you lead by example (and not necessarily by words you speak)

I think that we will be greatly surprised to see the effect of things we have done...on future generations.

My Great Great Grand Uncle,a Methodist Minister, is seeing the fruits of his ministry three generations later.  Just as I hope to see that my efforts affected lives.

Pat, you affect lives, whether you know it or not.  Keep on keepin' on. 

Sorry this post is so long, but I guess I save up my writin's too long.

Time for a laugh or two
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where their
family member lay gravely ill.
Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber. "I'm afraid I'm
the bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried faces.
"The only hope left for your loved one at th! is time is a brain
transplant.
It's an experimental procedure, very risky but it is the only hope.
Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the
brain yourselves."
The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a great
length of time, someone asked, "Well, how much does a brain cost?" The
doctor quickly responded, "$5,000 for a male brain, and $200 for a
female brain."
The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding
eye contact with the women, but some actually smirked. A man unable to
control his curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask,
"Why is the male brain so much more?"
The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire
group, "It's just standard pricing procedure. We have to mark down the
price of the female brains, because they've actually been used."

Pat ~ CP hasn't changed.  All of us have changed.  Doing more because of the season is my reason.  I know I am super busy right now with this landscaping and getting ready for my Small Groups meeting next week.  Hopefully things will calm down after that for me. 

Even today is busy.  Dennis and Jerry are outside working on the landscaping.  I am ready to take Ivalou and SIL, Barb, to a cousins house for lunch.  There we will have lunch with other lady cousins.  I am anxious to go because cuzzin' Marilyn and retired minister hubby lives in a huge house in the Geist area...the muckety-muck district!!!  I have no idea why a retired couple needs a two-story, full basement, four-bedroom home... ???  Perhaps I will find out today.  But then two of their children and grandchildren do live out of state.

"On Mother's Day, I think moms should be able to wake up and say to themselves:  I'm not just a housewife, I'm a domestic goddess!"

That was an awesome post, Fast Eddie.   I agree, we feel like we need that praise from a person to feel like we did or are doing good. 

(Soni loves praises)  ;D

I read most everyones post on here, just sometimes I get so busy I can't post to them all, so I just leave it be sometimes. 

Etta Sue~I hope you are taking before and after pictures of your landscaping job.  :-\

Volunteers welcome to help.  ;D

Soni

Ohhhh, that's one of my favorite "welcome graphics"!  And Etta Sue, you're branching out too.  That's so nice.  I love what you folks have been doing with Paint Shop Pro.  Marilyn, your lessons are just great too.

Hi all! Did you read my post I got here so late yesterday.....and I there was about 2 days no show....but hey I made it today and I am feeling better now that I did...
:)Thankyou for the welcome again it was so touching to see all the cute clips, and read all the devotions.
.Today is my son Zacharys birthday, 4 years old. He was born in 2000 a millenium baby on Mothers Day, so I feel like I still share that special day with him no matter what day the date falls on....
I have a book that I read daily, I have it for 2 years now a scripture and message a day....
thought I share with you.     
Trust in him at all times: ye people, pour out your heartbefore him; God is a refuge for us. psalm1xii.8

From tedious toil, from anxious care,
Dear Lord, I turn again to thee:
Thy presence and thy smile to share
Makes every burden light to me.        Ray Palmer



Thought this was a good message today because I have slipped from going to church and I need to get back in that direction to keep the promise I made .....raise my kids to know God.
Have a good day! I am going to st up a profile now yall must be wondering.....  :) Tracy -----Tolovemoon

Thanks Pat!  I need to make another one.

Pat you have so many cute tubes for your graphics, where did you get them?

Quote from: Marilyn Fisher on May 14, 2004, 01:01:15 PM
Pat you have so many cute tubes for your graphics, where did you get them?

Well, over the years, I've just been collecting them.  I have a folder on my computer called "PSTubes" and it's all divided into sections like "Birds", "Animals", "Birthdays", "Flowers", "Anniversaries", "Holidays" (and this is subdivided into the various holidays like Valentines, etc.)

Whew!  We finally have our power back after some wing-doozies of thunderstorms - trees and wire down all over the place and widespread power outage.  I haven't been around lately - kind of hard to get online with no electricity.   :-\

Marilyn, as Pat has said you can collect tubes from all sorts of places, but you can also make them yourself from your own pictures or graphics you download. 

;D a hello to Tolovemoon, it is nice to see you are here.

and a (((hug))) to mr FastEddie

a hi to Karstmom27 it is very nice to meet every one.

OH mr Moak (((HUG))) I know in all my heart it is a most wonderful place here at the Christian Photographers.  I know it is a please God that it is a place where so many can read and learn from so many different Christians. It is Gods wish that we are as one. and it is very special place to see a so many different Christians share and learn of the words of God.

We share the words from here at my dinner so many times. I just know so many others do it too. Some are quiet and perhaps do not make a post. but if they see such love here, and if they will wish to learn more, I know in my heart it is Gods wish to share his love.

:D Ms Ria it is so wonderful to read your words here each day I can do it. You are SO far away and you share this love of God.

;D Ms Bice (((((HUG))))) I love you and I love to see your picture when I can come here.

Mr Moak and Ms Marylyn and Ms Karmat and ms Janet and Ms Etta Sue and my Papa John  and everyone I love you all very much.  I am sad when I do not get to see the words from some when I come here to read.

Ms Jenny ;D, Mr Lee 8), Mr Anthony ;), Ms Karen :-* and so many others that are forever in my heart. if they are gone away for a short time, the love they did share it is not gone at all. I have it with me today.

Hi ms Jane  ;D

EEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeee Ms SONI (((HUG)))

You are all a treasure to me.  ;D I am very happy I have this place to gather when I can come here.   8)

I go today for some time away from my home and I think It is hard for me to make a post at times. but I will come to read when I can do it.  :-[

I try So hard to make a very happy post here so every one will smile.  :-\ I know my tears they are wine. they are tears of happy for all what I love.  I do hope I can come back to see every one again soon. I love you all.  :-*

and i love you God  8)


and a VERY happy birthday to my friend mr Zachery. I wish you well.  

 :-[ oh my, I think so I am a big fat post pig.

I hope it is not a snore to read it.  :-\ :-[



I love you ms Pat and I love you ms Karmat very much I thank you for so much. And ms Janet and mr Jerry and ms Ruth and MS SUE (((HUG))) and EVERYONE

Ohhhhh, Mieka, don't you ever forget that we all love you too and whenever you can, just check in here with us. 

Please give our love to your Mother and Pap.

Travel safely my little one.

Hi everyone.

Mieka, so nice to see you posting and your last comments brought a big smile to my face.  Your postings are just right and you are always a ray of sunshine when you post here.  Hope you will be able to post again before long.

Today was our SeniorNet Learning Center Monthly Volunteer meeting.  We had a pretty small turnout today but had a nice lunch provided by the organization, as we usually do for our business meetings.  We are not going to do a summer session of classes and they announced that we would not have volunteer meetings in June or July.  So we will have some time to recharge and get ready for the fall.  Our volunteers are getting a bit weary and need a break.

Pat, I agree with the comments of Al, Eddie and the others that the value of this site cannot be measured by the number of people who post.  We will never know how many people have viewed the site or how God will choose to use it for his benefit and glory.  The kind words and encouragement provided to each other and more importantly the prayer support we find here is the key in my mind.  I think of the new friends I feel I have made, and hope the people posting here consider me a friend, with a very special sense of joy.

Welcome to Shawnee.

I am going to be brief today, at least briefer than normal for me, and give you all a break.  Hope everyone has a nice day.

We haven't used this one since way back in September so maybe you might like to listen to it today.

QuoteHe restoreth my soul when I'm weary,
He giveth me strength day by day;
He leads me beside the still waters,
He guards me each step of the way.

Amen!  Thanks Pat!

Hi MIEKA!!!

We love you so much!!!

Pat, for some reason I can't see this post.

That's strange, Soni.

Do you see it in your quote?

I didn't, but now I do.  I see it in both.  Strange!

:'( :'( :'( I missed Mieka today!  But I know that she knows I love her so much, too.  Don't you, Sweetie?

I just got home from helping decorate.  Boy, what a big job that is!  It looks very pretty, though.

One of Darrel's high school classmates and his wife are in town, and they called and left a message saying they want to see us.  Since Darrel is away until later, I think I will go out to their motel and visit with them a bit.  Then he can visit them tonight while I am at the banquet.

Larry, I feel as you do, that I have made many friends here.  If I don't always answer each one, it is just because ...........whatever..........not that I don't love you all.  'Cause I do! 

Mieka, it is so good to see you show up here.  It is obvious that you are someone special to us at CP.  You are one of us and we DO love you.

I Jn 4:9-11
9   This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
10   This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
11   Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.[/b]  (NIV)

Hello, I haven't been here for a while (travel and so on). Just dropping in to say

[/font][/size]

Talk to you all later :)

This is a special place for me. I have found many cyber friends her that are more than cyber friends you all are family. Then I had had the blessing of meeting with some of you all, in person, on the phone and on IM. We have had some very real and personal conversations.

We have supported one another in our down times and prayed with each other  for so many things.

I love you all and although miss those who have not been her in awhile, I love them too.

TTYL

Ursrula,

Good to see you.  Where have you travelled recently?  Drop back in soon.    ;D

Papa John

This is so neat.  I had never heard this before.
It is beautiful and surely makes the 5 finger prayer a
worth while part of our lives.

1. Your thumb is nearest to you. So begin your prayers by praying for those closest to you. They are the easiest to remember. To pray for our loved ones is, as C. S. Lewis once said, a "sweet duty."

2. The next finger is the pointing finger. Pray for those who teach, instruct and heal. This includes teachers, dentists, physicians, and ministers. They need support and wisdom in pointing others in the right direction.  Keep them in your prayers.

3. The next finger is the tallest finger. It reminds us of our leaders.  Pray for the president, leaders in business and industry, and administrators. These people shape our nation and guide public opinion. They need God's guidance.

4. The fourth finger is our ring finger. Surprising to many is the fact that this is our weakest finger; as any piano teacher will testify.  It should remind us to pray for those who are weak, in trouble or in pain. They  need your prayers day and night. You cannot pray too much for them.

5. And lastly comes our little finger; the smallest finger of all. Which is where we should place ourselves in relation to God and others.  As the Bible says, "The least shall be the greatest among you."  Your pinkie should remind you to pray for yourself. By the time you have prayed for the other four groups, your own needs will be put into proper perspective and you will be able to pray for yourself more effectively.

Should you decide to send this to a friend, you might brighten someone's day!

FOR AL MOAK...

URSULA, great to see you back!

Hope you drop in soon.

Hey!  I've got an idea that oughtta get the post count up - let's have a big old rip roaring FIGHT :) :) :) :)

I'm kidding, I promise.  I do think that some of the higher post counts in the past have been when there were "controversies" of some sort, because it spurs folks to contribute their opinions. 

So, I guess, the fact that the post counts are a little down is actually an indicator of PEACE, which I think is good.  That's just a little positive thing to see in it :)

Between our internet troubles (which are only improved, not completely fixed) and the fact that Karma and I have both been extremely busy, time has just been so precious.  You guys are some of our best friends, but we just cannot spend a lot of time "playing" at the computer and still hope to somehow accomplish all the things we have going on.  But we'll get it under control.  :)  We're not going anywhere. 

One thing I would encourage everybody on - go ahead and make a SHORT post if that's all you can do - we like to know you have been around.  There's nothing wrong, at least in MY opinion, with just saying "Hi" and then going on with your business. 

Glad to see some new faces!  Welcome to CP. 

Bye for now!

Nard

Wow, I can't believe I'm back for the second time today. Y'all mean SO MUCH to me.  As I said to someone on the phone today, I'm only a few moments from the Nashville airport - let me know and I'll be there with arms open wide.

In the interim, consider yourself (((((((HUGGED!!!!!))))))))
