Today is the greatest day to eat at Chick-fil=A.
It’s also great to eat at Chick-fil-A on any Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday and Friday and Saturday.
Do not miss Tim Hawkins on You Tube—“God Bless You, Chick-fil-A.”
It’s still a great day to be an American.
And,
“GOD BLESS THE USA”

What adjectives do you need to describe a Texan?
Would the complete list include the following:
—proud
—loyal
—independent
—patriotic
—good
—old fashioned (values)
—hard-working
—brave
—native
—devoted
—unconventional
—one-of-a-kind
—volatile (if you mess with Texas, you may wish you hadn’t)
Okay, I could easily go on with more adjectives, because I believe in them personally. But let me tell you what prompted the list. I here make an apology to all who did not hear my severe mis-statement about Texas yesterday. My friend nailed me for accidentally saying “ordinary Texan” in a conversation about my loyalty to Texas. I promise I will never make that mistake again.
Now, back to the list. I do not need to make the list complete, or even add to it. In fact, we don’t need that list altogether. Truth is, ” T E X A N ” stands alone, speaks for itself, needs no adjective.
Several months ago I wrote about the various words to describe politicians, and they are many and colorful. But no one ever puts an adjective in front of “statesman.”
So it is with ” T E X A N “.
You haven’t seen the last of us. More later, or sooner.
THE COMPUTER OF LIFE

When you open too many files at one time on the computer of your life, it slows you down, interferes with all functions, and may cause a crash.
Add to this, as you get older, upgrades to accomplish more and more, become scarce.
We make computers run faster and faster and do more, but please do not follow that expectation in your life as a human being.

“THE GOOD OLD DAYS”

Will we look back and say these were the good old days?
Make the most of the day, today.
How?

CHANGING AMERICA—GOOD, BAD, UGLY, OR . . .
July 19, 2012 By Leave a Comment
(7-15-12 bears repeating)
America is changing, soon.
There are three likely ways it will happen.
–A–
A true American steps up to the plate and leads this country out of this present darkness by leading us back to our beginning, in every way. This includes dependence on God, passion for every constitutional liberty, resolve against our enemies, faithfulness to our friends, guts to fight on any front that threatens our sovereignty, intolerance for traitors, swift justice, security at home, strength abroad (willing and able to wipe out evil), and the ability to inspire everyone in this country to fight for it now, or leave.
And that would be good.
This leader may or may not be an elected official.*
–B–
The dictator in the White House continues his takeover, using what is already working perfectly for him. Why shouldn’t someone thirsting for power continue grabbing more if no one is stopping him? I can’t believe people are still amazed at his lies and “misguided” policies. He told us he was changing America, and his actions concur. If he isn’t stopped now, it will be worse for the world than Hitler, because there are no “Allies” left.
And that would be bad.
I just hope he doesn’t call it America when he is done.
–C–
Islam sweeps in to fill the vacuum—the spiritual vacuum, the moral vacuum, the leadership vacuum, the economic vacuum, the patriotism vacuum.
And that would be ugly.
The vacuum without God in America WILL BE FILLED, shortly!!!
There is a fourth possibility—one that is totally optional—the only one that we may actually have control over. I am not going to predict its likelihood, because “With God all things are possible.”
–D–
American Christians start giving testimony to “turning from their wicked ways” about money. So far we hear a lot about praying and seeking God and turning from any sin except “laying up treasures on earth.” Repent means change, turning away from something, turning around to the opposite direction.
Christians and Christian leaders never consider their retirement accounts and investments to be contrary to the Bible, until Jesus’ words come true in the coming economic collapse: “moth and rust corrupt, and thieves break in and steal.”
Nothing has weakened and paralyzed the church’s influence and leadership more than its economic ties with this culture. Society has told the church to store up treasures (unbiblical) for retirement (unbiblical), spend enormous amounts on insurance (lack of trust in God—fear), and let the government take care of people in need because Christians have their money tied up for “someday” and “what if?” Now we are forced to give more and more to a godless government promising to do the church’s job. And we already know how that works.
That is why we are in the mess we are in.
Repentance—now that would be blessed.
* If we do not save this country, then part –A– above must read, “A true Texan steps up to the plate and leads . . . “
