Galatians 6:7-10

^{7} Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. ^{8} For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. ^{9} And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. ^{10} Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Dean hit by Roadside Bomb - prayer request.

My cousin Dean (James Dean- no kiddin) is in the hospital w/ a concussion after hitting and IED in Iraq. That is a roadside bomb. Not much info on him yet. Apparently has not lost his hearing or eyesight, but no word on what else is wrong other than a severe concussion. Please pray for him and our family. His mom is probably a wreck by now. This is his third tour to Iraq and he's only in his early twenties. Thanks!

 

Captain Kangaroo passed away on January 23, 2004 as age 76.  The actor, Lee Marvin, is buried in a grave alongside 3 and 4-star generals at Arlington National Cemetery. His
marker gives his name, rank (PVT) and service (USMC). Nothing else Here's a guy who was only a famous movie star who served his time, why does he rate burial with these guys? Well, following is the amazing answer:

I always liked Lee Marvin, but didn't know the extent of his Corps experiences.

In a time when many Hollywood stars  served their country in the armed forces often in rear echelon posts where  they were carefully protected, only to be trotted out to perform for  the cameras in war bond promotions, Lee Marvin
was a genuine  hero. He won the Navy Cross at Iwo Jima . There is only one higher Naval award... the Medal Of Honor!

  If that is a surprising comment on the true character of the man, he credits his sergeant with an even greater show of bravery.   Dialog from "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson": His guest  was Lee Marvin Johnny said, "Lee, I'll bet a lot of people are unaware  that you were a
Marine in the initial landing at Iwo Jima ...and that  during the course of that action you earned the Navy Cross and were  severely wounded." 
   "Yeah, yeah... I got shot square in the bottom and they gave me the Cross for securing a hot spot about halfway up Suribachi. Bad thing about getting
shot up on a  mountain is guys getting' shot hauling you down. But,Johnny, at Iwo I served under the bravest man I ever knew... We both got the Cross the same day, but what he did for his Cross made mine  look cheap in comparison. That guy actually stood up on Red beach and  directed his troops to move forward and get off the beach. Bullets flying by, with mortar rounds landing everywhere and he stood there as the main target of gunfire so that he could get  his
men to safety. He did this on more than one occasion because his men's safety was more important than his own life. That Sergeant and I have been lifelong friends. When  they brought me off Suribachi we passed the Sergeant and I am lying on my belly on the litter. Johnny, I'm not lying, Sergeant Keeshan was the  bravest man I ever knew.
The Sergeant's name is Bob Keeshan. You and the world know  him as Captain Kangaroo." On another note, there was this wimpy little man (who just passed away) on
PBS, gentle and quiet. Mr. Rogers is another of those you would least suspect of being anything but what he now portrays to our youth. But Mr.Rogers was a U.S.
Navy Seal, combat-proven in Vietnam with over twenty-five confirmed kills to his name. He wore a long-sleeved sweater on TV, to cover the many tattoos on his forearm and  biceps. He was a master in small arms and hand-to-hand combat,
able to disarm or kill in a heartbeat . After the war Mr. Rogers became an ordained Presbyterian minister and therefore
a pacifist. Vowing to never harm another human and also dedicating the rest of his life to trying to help lead children on the right path in life. He hid away the tattoos and his past life and won our hearts with his quiet wit and charm. America's real heroes don't flaunt what they did; they quietly go about
their day-to-day lives, doing what they do bestthey earned our respect and the freedoms that we all enjoy. Look around and see if you can find one of those heroes in your midst. Often, they are the ones you'd least suspect, but would
most like to have on your side if  anything ever happened Take the time to thank anyone that has  fought for our freedom. With encouragement they could be the
next Captain Kangaroo or Mr.Rogers.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'." I'm whispering "I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven." When I say... "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak And need His strength to carry on. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed And need God to clean my mess. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect, My flaws are far too visible But, God believes I am worth it. When I say... "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches So I call upon His name. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou, I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's Grace and blessed to be able to say I AM A CHRISTIAN!!!

Heavenbound Directions -  Make a Right onto Believeth Blvd. Keep straight and go through the Green Light, which is Jesus Christ. There, you must turn onto the Bridge of Faith, which is over troubled water. When you get off the bridge, make a Right turn and Keep Straight. You are on the King's Highway - Heaven-bound. Keep going for three miles: One for the Father, One for the Son, and One for the Holy Ghost. Then exit off onto Grace Blvd. From there, make a Right turn on Gospel Lane. Keep Straight and then make another Right on Prayer Road. As you go on your way, Yield Not to the traffic on Temptation Ave. Also, avoid SIN STREET because it is a DEAD END. Pass up Envy Drive, and Hate Avenue. Also, pass Hypocrisy Street, Gossiping Lane, and Backbiting Blvd. However, you have to go down Long-suffering Lane, Persecution Blvd. and Trials and Tribulations Ave. But that's all right, because VICTORY Street is straight ahead! AMEN!!!!!

Galatians 2: 20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. The New King James Version. 1982 (Ga 2:20-21). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

EPH 6:10-20 Put on the full armor of God - 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. The New King James Version. 1982 (Eph 6:10-20). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

Luke 15:3 So He (Jesus) spoke this parable to them, saying: 4 "What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? 5 And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!' 7 I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance. 8 "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I lost!' 10 Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." The New King James Version. 1982 (Lk 15:3-10). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.
