Something to Consider
1What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:1-4, King James Version)
I’ve had comments to the effect because I am Christian, I should accept those who live a lifestyle contrary to God’s Word. The above passage says otherwise. Yes, we are all sinners, but unless we put our sins behind us, we will not know the Glory of God.
The churches that have accepted the continuance of sin, even to the point of promoting it, are not churches filled with the Spirit.
A Few More Observations
D.C. Bob! Nobody here but us chickens? No, the real chicken, instead of facing We, The People in D.C., jetted off to suck up to his kook aid drinkers in MN.
Pic found on Atlas Shrugs
Now THAT’S funny! 
Also, please note the HUGE difference between the ‘left’ and ‘right’.
(Found at Gateway Pundit)
Now, excuse me….but who do you think cares MORE about the environment? Uh huh. That’s what I thought.
“Hell Hath No Fury…..
……like a taxpayer ignored!”
Go here, watch 3 hours of ignored taxpayers and
PATRIOTS! Astroturf? Hey! Pelosi???
CAN YOU HEAR US NOW?
We, The People!!
I Am SO Blessed!
If you’ve been reading here for a while, you probably know that we tend to go away on a regular basis. We like to travel, but nothing is better than coming home. I was able to get home in time to get my hinder to church this evening, and it was TRULY like coming home. Have you ever been somewhere that you just KNOW you are loved? And when you walk in the door, people are honestly happy to see you? Then, you know what I mean. That’s my church! We have the most terrific Pastor, the most wonderful members, and some pretty cool guests occasionally too. 
So, you see? I AM truly blessed with such a wonderful church family, that loves the Lord, and worships Him ONLY!
Home!
After a wonderful weekend in Nashville with Kathy, I am home. She stayed an extra day to play tourist, but I needed to get home to see my babies. Both inside kitties were happy to see me. The outdoor cats who hang around, were pretty pleased to have their food bowl filled. 
All in all, I’m fairly content to be in sitting in my own recliner, and looking forward to sleeping in my own bed for a few nights. 
I Have “Protest” Envy!
Conservative Woodstock Rocks the Capital
Me too, sir. Me too!
Nashville 912 Project!
Setting up….
A few Oath Keepers folks….
Marine (quite young) color guard….
We had people from all walk of life…. current military, vets, police, firefighters, and civilians. Everyone there took the oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. We actually MEAN it. Isn’t it a shame that those who have spent so much time in The Swamp have forgotten what that document actually means?
We had about a thousand folks in Nashville….
But we’d never be able to top THIS!
Tired!
Kathy and I just got back from the Nashville 912 Project. We be two tired ol’ shufflin’ women. Have pictures. Will post…………………………later! WAS GREAT!
To Those Who Heard The Call….
…..and answered.
Thanks to Alyssa for sharing.

As I knew she would, The Ol’ Broad has done quite a bit of posting on 9/11. For another view or two, take a gander over here. The Chad and I have each posted our thoughts, memories and views of that fateful day.
Please, never NEVER forget what happened that day eight years ago. We were attacked – pure and simple. Attacked on our own soil by those who put absolutely no value on human life.
Continued prayers to those families who lost loved ones in that attack.
