An Old Irish Blessing ... May the road rise up to meet you.May the wind always be at your back.May the sun shine warm upon your face,and rains fall soft upon your fields.And until we meet again,May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

"It is said some lives are linked across time. There are certain people connected by an ancient calling that echoes through the ages....destiny."

Life is a fleeting moment. Why live life in moderation and control when it lasts so short a time. Love until you drown in the happiness, laugh until the air you breath escapes you, cry until your tears are dry and live like the next second death will take your soul. Life is yours to live, and live it you must, not in the fear of what is to come next. That Next Place is waiting for you. It waits, in the hope that you will come fulfilled and ready, not in longing and regret.

Wishing you a wonderful new week..Like little birds, we only fly when we get shaken out of our nests; and develop the strongest wings only when we try them against the wind. The dove in a fable, was perturbed because the wind ruffled its feathers, but without that air it could neither soar nor live. In struggle, it is prudent to not wish away every opposition. It is better to meet and master our difficulties that faith can be made stronger through conflict.~Leroy Brownlow~With much love allways

Nasa and the Bible ....

NASA & THE BIBLE
Thought this was pretty amazing and interesting


For all the scientists out there, and for all the students
Who have a hard time convincing these people regarding the truth of the
Bible, here's something that shows God's awesome creation, and that He is
Still in control.

Did you know that the space program is busy proving that
What has been called 'myth' in the Bible is true?


Mr. Harold Hill, President of the Curtis Engine Company in
Baltimore , Maryland , and a consultant in the space program, relates the
Following development

I think one of the most amazing things that God has done for
Us today happened recently to our astronauts and space scientists at Green
Belt, Maryland .

They were checking out where the positions of the sun, moon,
And planets would be 100 years and 1,000 years from now.. We have to know
This so we won't send up a satellite and have it bump into something later
On in its orbits.

We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the
Satellite and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog
Down.They ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries,
And it came to a halt. The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which
Meant that there was something wrong with either the information fed into it
Or with the results as compared to the standards.

They called in the service department to check it out, and
They said, 'What's wrong?' Well, they found there is a day missing in space
In elapsed time.

They scratched their heads and tore their hair out.. There
Was no answer.

Finally a Christian man on the team said, 'You know, one
Time I was in Sunday School, and they talked about the sun standing still.'
While they didn't believe him, they didn't have an answer either, so they
Said, 'Show us, '

He got a Bible and went to the book of Joshua where they
Found a pretty ridiculous statement for any one with 'common sense.'


There they found the Lord saying to Joshua,

'Fear them not, I have delivered them into thy hand; there
Shall not a man of them stand before Thee.'

Joshua was concerned because he was surrounded by the enemy!

And if darkness fell, they would overpower them. So Joshua
Asked the Lord to make the sun stand still! That's right... 'The sun stood
Still and the moon stayed and lasted not to go down about a whole day!'

(Joshua 10:12-13)


The astronauts and scientists said, There is the missing
Day! They checked the computers going back into the time it was written and
Found it was close but not close enough. The elapsed time that was missing
Back in Joshua's day was 23 hours and 20 minutes, not a

Whole day.

They read the Bible, and there it was about [approximately]
A day. These little words in the Bible are important, but they were still in
Trouble because if you cannot account for 40 minutes, you'll still

Be in trouble 1000 years from now.

Forty minutes had to be found because it can be multiplied
Many times over in orbits. As the Christian employee thought about it, he
Remembered somewhere in the Bible where it said the sun went BACKWARDS.

The scientists told him he was out of his mind, but they got
Out the Book and read these words in 2 Kings that told of the following
Story: Hezekiah, on his death bed, was visited by the prophet Isaiah who
Told him that he was not going to die. Hezekiah asked for a sign as proof.
Isaiah said 'Do you want the sun to go ahead 10 degrees ?'

Hezekiah said, 'It is nothing for the sun to go ahead 10
Degrees, but let the shadow return backward 10 degrees.' Isaiah spoke to the
Lord, and the Lord brought the shadow ten degrees BACKWARD! Ten degrees is
Exactly 40 minutes!

Twenty-three hours and 20 minutes in Joshua, plus 40 minutes
In Second Kings make the missing day in the universe! Isn't it amazing?

References: Joshua 10:8 and 12,13 and 2 Kings 20:9-11.




Forward this to as many people who you believe would think
This is equally as cool.
If God could do this then; how much more can he do for us
Today. If we only believe in his word.
