God’s tender and personal care for each of us is mind-boggling

Dd#1 called to share a story she’d just heard on the radio while driving home. It was about how God really is intimately aware of and caring about the tiniest details of our lives.

This guy was in Mexico delivering Christmas shoeboxes. This one girl kept getting a wrong box, wrong for her age or gender, so they kept moving her down the line until she was finally the ONLY child left and there was only ONE shoebox left.

When she opened it, she burst into tears. She was holding a photo of the child who had packed the box. “This is my best friend!” she sobbed. “I never thought I’d see her again after we moved to Mexico to take care of Grandma.”

“More than 100 million shoeboxes have been given to kids in over 130 countries since Operation Christmas Child began in 1993.”

Taking a closer look at the Trumpets and Bowls

Trumpet and Bowl Angels

Revelation 1 … 12 I saw seven gold lamp stands 13 and in the midst of the lamp stands [Jesus], wearing an ankle-length robe, with a gold sash around his chest. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars. 20 The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lamp stands are the seven churches.

Revelation 4 … 2 A throne was there in heaven, and on the throne sat 3 [God]. 5 Seven flaming torches burned in front of the throne, which are the seven spirits of God. 6 Around the throne, there were four living creatures covered with eyes in front and in back.

Revelation 8 … 2 And I saw that the seven angels who stood before God were given seven trumpets.

Revelation 11 … 15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet. There were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world now belongs to our Lord and to his Anointed, and he will reign forever and ever.”

Revelation 15 … 5 The temple that is the heavenly tent of testimony opened, 6 and the seven angels with the seven plagues came out of the temple. They were dressed in clean white linen, with a gold sash around their chests. 7 One of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven gold bowls filled with the fury of God, who lives forever and ever.

Revelation 16 … 17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, “It is done.”

Parsing the evidence above, I believe it is reasonable to conclude:

The Trumpets and Bowls are parallel descriptions of seven punishments.

  • Trumpet Seven marks the final defeat of evil and the end of Great Tribulation. (Rev 11:15)
  • Bowl Seven marks the final defeat of evil and the end of Great Tribulation. (Rev 16:17)

The seven Trumpet Angels are the seven spirits of God.

  • Before God’s throne are seven flaming torches who are the seven spirits of God. (Rev 4:5)
  • The angels who receive the trumpets are “the seven angels who stood before God.” (Rev 8:2)

The seven Bowl Angels are the angels of the churches in the temple. (Rev 15:5, 6-7)

  • The plague angels who come out of the temple wear gold sashes like Jesus’. (Rev 1:13, Rev 15:6)
  • Jesus wears this sash in the midst the lamp stands which are the churches. (Rev 1:12, 20)
  • Jesus holds the angels (stars) in his right hand, signifying he has authority to command them. (Rev 1:16, 20)
  • Who but Jesus would have the authority to give the Bowl Angels the plagues they will pour out with God’s fury? (Rev 15:6)

A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

It’s probably just me,but I’m afraid this country will never be right again. Everything is faster,cheaper,shinier. A hundred million people living off a government check with millions more pouring across our borders to take what others have worked and sacrificed for. Two more years to agonize under Obama’s abuse then at least four years under Hillary. I will not live to see another republican president. The sight in my left eye is gone and this morning I had a severe emphysema attack in the shower. It gets harder to breathe every day. I take nebulizer treatments,but it’s just temporary. Any physical exertion leaves me gasping for air. It’s been two years since I quit smoking but the damage was done long ago. At least I can look back at my life and think: damn,I had me a time.

HOW MANY HOURS DID YOU SPEND LOOKING THROUGH ONE OF THESE?

A LITTLE FRIDAY NONSENSE

The discussion about crabbing yesterday was very informative. I’ll have to keep it in mind if I’m ever near Maryland. Nobody I know of around these parts makes crab cakes. DW’s interest in seafood is limited to beer-battered cod from a Friday fish fry. She won’t even taste anything else. There is no adventure in her soul. I,on the other hand,love it all (except squid and octopus). Lobster, crab, shrimp, mussels, oysters, scallops,even pickled herring (in wine sauce,not cream sauce…thats stuff’s nasty.) She won’t even go to Red Lobster.

We got a little of this and a little of that today. I spent most of the morning in my recliner with a heating pad on my leg. I was napping peacefully this morning when I got the mother of all cramps in my calf. It felt like somebody stuck a red-hot knife in my leg. Like most men,I can’t stand pain and screamed like I was giving birth. Fortunately,DW is used to taking care of me. I purposely wrote in it her contract… personal services clause.

Global Warming death to infidels

I could use some Global Warming right about now.

The Gore-ists who Believe man’s use of fossil fuels is damaging Earth’s climate love to portray themselves as the smart, pro-science people, but a recent study proves the real smarty pants are the Skeptics that the Believers portray as “anti-science.”

A recent study asked 2,000 respondents nine questions about where they thought scientists stand on climate science.

Skeptics got more answers right than Believers did.

One Believer yawned and said so what. Denies are just “choosing to reject those findings, usually for political reasons.”

Uhhhhh … no. When I began to read up on the climate issue, I was completely neutral on the topic. It was the science that convinced me Al Gore is a con artist and the people pushing for so-called climate regulations are faking their “science” to push a political agenda that is deeply anti-human.

Studying the climate issue actually drove me much further to the right politically, not the other way around.

Watch This Woman

Twitter-Quote-Christiana-Figueres_735
Of all the quasi-governmental agencies wreaking havoc in the world, the very most dangerous, and most driven, may be the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. This agency is chaired by a Costa Rican diplomat named Christiana Figueres who is getting a lot of attention recently for her extraordinary admission that “Climate Science” has very little to do with climate and everything to do with global economic control. She’s also gaining a lot of attention for being one of the most “visibly evil” looking people on the planet, in the words of blogger Dave Blount. See for yourself.  But appearances aside, her group is gaining enormous momentum in its bid to reshape the economy of the World, which in case you’ve been living under a rock and need some ‘splaining, means destroying our economy, in particular.  We need to keep an eye on her ‘progress.’

I note also that when you Google her name, you see an embarrassing graphic posted on some website called ‘PoliNation.’ She must hate that, but I really like those guys.

They were for it before they were against it

  • In 1998, President Bill Clinton said the U.S. needed to invade Iraq because they held weapons of mass destruction that were a danger to the U.S.
  • In 2002, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton condemned Saddam Hussein and strongly supported the invasion of Iraq to take him down.

This video of two speeches by Bill and Hillary will be a real eye-opener for anyone who doesn’t remember those days.

You cannot beat an opponent you refuse to understand

I learned this as a young girl when my dad would spend hours in the living room watching game films of the team that his team was going to play next. He’d run the film forwards and backwards and forwards and backwards, studying each play and each man, learning their patterns and their strengths and weaknesses. He was a great coach. Barack Obama is a duplicitous idiot.
