“Take away, O Lord, the veil of my heart while I read the scriptures. Blessed art thou, O Lord: O teach me thy statures! Give me a word, O Word of the Father: touch my heart: enlighten the understandings of my heart: open my lips and fill them with thy praise.” ~ Bishop Lancelot Andrewes ~
“O to continue to drink deep of the streams of the great salvation, until I wholly lose the thirst for the passing things of earth, to live watching for my Lord, to b wide awake when he comes, to open to him quickly and enjoy his likeness to the full.” ~ Ann Griffiths ~
“Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord!” ~ Philippians 3:1 ~

Welcome Angela, we all need it and that's why I have Sabbath Keeping; I need it a lot -smile-.
Welcome myletterstoemily, thank you and don't you love Sunday? A mini-vacation each and every week!
Welcome Ron, praise the Lord indeed and then we get to praise Him in eternity, together, with one happy voice.
Welcome Lisa, CSLewis was one very wise and learned man.
Welcome Strawberry, thank you for your kind words and hoping you had a restful, restorative sleep. If the only thing we accomplish in this frosty world is salvation and encouragement, we've lived successful lives and make Our Father happy. Dig deep, plant strong roots and when the winds of life prevail upon you, you'll stand strong because you're rooted in Him and His word.

Hi Sandra
AMEN!
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord
I am still able to breathe today and I say, PRAISE THE LORD! And even after I draw my last breath here on earth my next words in heaven will be PRAISE THE LORD!
God bless you, Ron
