It is a most lamentable thing to see how most people spend their time and their energy for trifles, while God is cast aside. He who is all seems to them as nothing, and that which is nothing seems to them as good as all. It is lamentable indeed, knowing that God has set mankind in such a race where heaven or hell is their certain end, that they should sit down and loiter, or run after the childish toys of the world, forgetting the prize they should run for. Were it but possible for one of us to see this business as the all-seeing God does, and see what most men and women in the world are interested in and what they are doing every day, it would be the saddest sight imaginable. Oh, how we should marvel at their madness and lament their self-delusion! If God had never told them what they were sent into the world to do, or what was before them in another world, then there would have been some excuse. But it is His sealed word, and they profess to believe it.

<>< I GOT YOUR BACK ><>
  
I am a small and precious child, my dads been sent to  fight..
The only place I'll see his face,is in my dreams at night.
He will be gone too many days for my young mind to keep track.
I may be sad,but I am proud.
My daddys got your  back.
  
I am a caring mother. My son has gone to war..
My mind is filled with worries that I have never known before.
Everyday I try to keep my thoughts from turning black.
I may be scared,but I am proud.
My son has got your back.
  
I am a strong and loving wife,with a husband soon to go.
There are times I'm terrified in a way most never know.
I bite my lip,and force a smile as I watch my husband pack..
My heart may break,but I am proud.
My husbands got your back..
  
I am a soldier..Serving Proudly, standing tall.
I fight for freedom,yours and mine by answering this call.
I do my job while knowing,the thanks it sometimes lacks.
Say a prayer that I'll come home.
It's me whose got your back.

<>< DAILY WISH ><>
 
My daily wish is that we may
See good in those who pass our way;
 
Find in each a worthy trait
That we shall gladly cultivate;
 
See in each one passing by
The better things that beautify
 
A softly spoken word of cheer,
A kindly face, a smile sincere.
 
I pray each day that we may view
The things that warm one's heart anew;
 
The kindly deed that can't be bought
That only from good are wrought,
 
A burden lightened here and there,
A brother lifted from despair,
 
The aged ones freed from distress;
The lame, the sick, brought happiness.
 
Grant that before each sun has set
We'll witness deeds we can't forget;
 
A soothing hand to one in pain,
A sacrifice for love - not gain;
 
A word to ease the troubled mind
Of one whom fate has dealt unkind.
 
So, friend, my wish is that we may
See good in all who pass our way.
 
Have a Blessed Day
Dave and Barbara
