This . . .
I have questions about Ramen Noodle soup. The directions say to boil the noodles for three minutes, stirring occasionally. I understand that part, but then it says to turn off the heat and add the contents of the seasoning packet. Does anyone really wait til after the three minute boiling to add the seasoning? My question is why wait? I have tried it both ways and I can tell you it tastes much better if you put the seasoning in after a minute or two because then you can really eat it immediately. And then it says that this makes two servings! I have never served two out of a single packet - you have to eat the whole thing in one serving - it's a rule. If you want some, make your own. Two servings . . . the very idea! One more thing - the best way to open the package is with scissors - no arguments.

That . . .
A man forgot to get a present for his wife on their wedding anniversary. She informed him with that "wife look" that if he knew what was good for him, "When I look outside tomorrow, there had better be something in the drive way that goes from 0 to 200 in under two seconds!"
Of course he responded, "Anything for you, sweetheart".
And sure enough, there was something in the driveway, but it was only a small package.
She opened it up and found a set of scales! She stepped on and sure enough it went from 0 to 200 in under two seconds.
Funeral services are Saturday.

This is That . . .
What do you think about Jerusalem, the Jews, Israel and all of that?
Have gentile believers in Jesus replaced them as God's favorite?
God has not forgotten Israel, and he doesn't expect us to either.

“ Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you. Isaiah 49:15.

So what is going on in Israel, Iran, Iraq, Palestine, etc. God desires that we pray for Israel, and we can do that, but it is a little hard to pray specifically unless we have some understanding of what is happening. I ran across http://www.cfijerusalem.org/multimedia.asp?id=2&cat=1 while surfing around last night. Lance Lambert is a Messianic Jew and he gives a really good summary of the present situation. You can read it, or if you prefer you can sit back and listen.
This is that (stuff) we need to know. There is a growing hatred of the Jews, and thru it all we gentile believers need to be prepared to pray and stand with them thru whatever comes.

Blogging Here. June 29, 2006
I always wondered what a blogger was . . . now I am one.

Some of this will be this. Some of that will be that.
Some of "this will be that".
Acts 2:16-17
But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel: And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughers shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

On each post I want to stir interest with what God is doing in these last days.
I encourage your responses.

Now . . . concerning global warming. I didn't used to think there was anything to it, but then I read of a scientific study which concluded that within the next six years they fully expect Hillary Clinton to completely defrost! I still am not sure I believe it.
