Welcome home missM glad you are back. I bet you had a great time.
Dave I loved the colors thoughts thanks for sharing and the eagle picture was great. I got some photos of a golden eagle last week that I plan on sharing soon.

Thank you Jan :wave:

I think [believe] that we [all of us] SHINE with our particular colours
and that TOGETHER we all add-up
to make a beautiful contribution to our Lord's tapestry
no-shade/ hue being more important, than any-other
Additionally, I am sure
that WORDS [alone] do not create and encourage 'fellowship' ...
that it is actions too, those which, originate in LOVE
for another/ others... that keeps us in His footsteps

We are all given CHOICE
iow: whether or not, to choose, to walk past on the other-side

Be well Sis'
I look forward to those pics

:wave:

I found this, out there




There’s a strength in love, and a loving person is strong
because he is able to overcome his selfishness.

There’s a strength in joy, and a joyful person is strong
because he has never been defeated by challenges and temptations.

There’s a strength in peace, and a person who owns peace is strong
because he has never been in doubt.

There’s a strength in patient endurance, and a patient person is strong
because he is able to bear everything and he has never felt hurt.

There’s a strength in generosity, and a generous person is strong
because he has never held his words and hands to do good deeds.

There’s a strength in kindness, and a kind person is strong
because he is always able to do good things for everyone.

There’s a strength in faith, and a faithful person is strong
because he is able to defeat his worldliness by his faith to God and other people.

There’s a strength in mildness, and a mild person is strong
because he is able to restrain himself from revenge.

There’s a strength in chastity, and a chaste person is strong
because he is able to control his lust.

I also found this out-there

One night at a small church in Atlanta, Georgia, a man shared
how he had become a Christian while in Sydney, Australia.

"I was at the street corner in Kings Cross," the man began,
"when I felt a tug on my sleeve.
Turning, I found myself face to face with a street bum.
Before I could say anything, the man simply asked me,
'Mister, if you were to die tonight, where would you spend eternity?' "
"That question troubled me over the next three weeks,"
the man continued.
"I had to find an answer, and I ended up giving my life to Christ."

The pastor of the Atlanta church was amazed
that a man on a street corner could have such an impact.
But imagine his amazement when, three years later, another man came to his church
and gave an almost identical testimony.
He, too, had been at Kings Cross in Sydney when a derelict had pulled on his sleeve
and then asked him,
"If you were to die tonight, where would you spend eternity?"
This second man, also haunted by the street bum's question,
eventually sought and found an answer in Jesus.

Shortly after hearing the second testimony, the pastor of that small church
in Atlanta had to be in Sydney for a missions conference.
On one of his nights off, he went to Kings Cross
to see if he could find the man who had been mentioned at his church
by two different people.
Pausing on a street corner to look for someone like the street bum he'd heard about,
he felt a tug at his jacket. He turned, and before the poor old man could say anything,
the pastor blurted out,
"I know what you're going to ask me!
You're going to ask me if I were to die tonight, where would I spend eternity?"

The man was stunned.
"How did you know that?" he inquired.
The pastor told him the whole story.
When he finished, the man started to cry.
"Mister," he said,
"10 years ago I gave my life to Jesus, and I wanted to do something for Him.
But a man like me can't do much of anything.
So I decided I would just hang out on this corner
and ask people that simple question.
I've been doing that for years, mister, but tonight is the first time
Ever that I knew it did anybody any good."

God calls us not to be successful, but to be faithful in following where He leads.
We need to obey God even when we can't see whether it does any good
or makes a difference in someone else's life.
I encourage you to stay faithful to the Lord even when things don't make sense
and be sensitive to that still small voice
because that is the Lord leading you to where He wants you to be. (1 Kings 19:11-12)




Amen

Hello and good morning everybody :wave:

Please have a good day in the Lord

Regrettably, I have been led to a course of action
which might well find-me, leaving CF and GE50+
for the SAME REASON that others have, since, my arrival here

However, such an extreme course of action
will depend entirely upon the reaction of CF Admin
to a request for adjudication on a complaint I have to express

I am unable and unwilling to discuss 'this matter'
either on the boards or, in the PM box
although, as always, I am happy to receive emails

Good morning all.

Dave, sorry to hear of the situation, I hope it can be resolved.


I hope so too.. keep' ... I really do.... however
I must also figure-in some past-events and... their outcomes
and I am not happy, with merely ignoring future posts/messages
because these 'attacks' also find their way into my PM's and profile messages

just as they did, with the other members

your Bro'
