Welcome

Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone. Please feel free to ignore this blog, but also feel free to browse and comment on my posts! You may also scroll down to respond to any post.

For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Great quote- Thanks Ralph!

All workers at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion plant were required to p[ass a security investigation. I believe that all government representatives should have the same requirements.




We may survive this guy, but he is currently Commander in Chief and probably the greatest threat to this country's security.

Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has it figured out.





"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

Hey Clay! 100 more hits to 10,000- Thanks Manager!

Thanks!

P.U.S.H. Thanks Dr. Hovermale!

Dr. Hovermale,

Didn't we learn in "Physics" class that work = force times distance ( W=FD)?  It seems that the man had done no work.    A ton of effort versus no movement means no work.  Zero times infinity equals zero in mathematics.

In this parable, you would hope the man had something to put food on his table and to pay his rent.  If He cares about the sparrows, surely He cares about man.

Nonetheless, our God is so wise and He does wish us to be obedient and Pray Until Something Happens.  

I pray that our great country can move to eliminate Al Quaeda.

I know... I am thinking 'out of context'.

Subject: Just P.U.S.H.--what a message!





A man was sleeping one night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might.



So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sunup to sundown, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all his might!



Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: (He will do it every time)!



You have been pushing against that rock for a long time and it hasn't moved." Thus, he gave the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man.



Satan said, "Why kill yourself over this? Just put in your time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough."



That's what the weary man planned to do, but decided to make it a matter of prayer and to take his troubled thoughts to the Lord.



"Lord," he said, "I have labored long and hard in Your Service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?"



The Lord responded compassionately, "My friend, when I asked you to serve Me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you have done.



Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push. And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed.



But, is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back shiny and brown; your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard.



Through opposition you have grown much, and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. True, you haven't moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. That you have done. Now I, my friend, will move the rock."



At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He wants, when actually what God wants is just simple obedience and faith in Him.



By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God Who moves the mountains.



When everything seems to go wrong....... ......... ......... .Just P.U.S.H.



When the job gets you down........ ......... ......... ...........Just P.U.S.H.



When people don't do as you think they should............. Just P.U.S.H.



When your money is "gone" and the bills are due...........Just P.U.S.H.



When people just don't understand you.........................Just P.U.S.H.



P = Pray

U = Until

S = Something

H = Happens



Pass this on to all your loved ones and friends who may need it; they may get it just in time. "Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending."



Friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

May God Bless You.
