  • Psalm 20:7
    Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
        but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
    -----------------
    I wonder how exactly this verse would translate to today's society. "Some trust in SUV's..." no
    another version says
    -----------------
    "Some nations boast of their armies and weapons,
           but we boast in the LORD our God."
    -----------------
    There could be many things said about our nation...none of which I really care to talk about. I'm not a political commentator, no do I wish to dilude myself and others by drawing strange and abstract similarities between Bible verses and current events to predict that we are living in the "end times". Ya know the apostles said the same thing??? Every time I hear someone predict that stuff, I just think of the Bible verse that says no one knows the hour...NO ONE!

    I'd much rather focus on my own personal worship of our Holy Savior. I think if everyone stopped concerning themselves with the condition of the spirituality of others and worked on their own walk with Christ, and changed the things in themselves that God would have them change, we would be better off. Take the plank...before you look at the speck....(Daniel's paraphrase) you know the rest...

    btw, no eprops to a certain stubborn Nertz winner last night who REFUSED to try the new flavor of Doritos AND didn't finish the Mocha I made him. What a loser.

  • Love you!

  • What's the flavor of doritos?  I don't get out much

  • Ps 20:7 is one of my favorites. Amazing to me you quoted it. The older I get the more I appreciate that book. Some of my other favorites from Psalms include 24:1 (God is God of Everything), 118:8 (the very center of the Bible, sandwiched between the shortest and longest Psalms), and 121:1-2 (literally saved me from suicide as a teenager - about 20+ years ago). Feel free to stop by my site any time and leave the occassional bit of inspiration. Be blessed. 

  • I forgot to mention, since you asked about my weight loss, I'm 5'10" and started loosing at 240 and now 210 (approx.). Trying for 170 or thereabouts. At the current rate I hope to get there by summer. I haven't seen that weight since the 1980s. I was a skinny runt in HS, only 115 lbs and size 28 was loose fitting when I hit boot camp in 1983.
