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.

The secret... Thanks Pat Richards (PHS 50) Whitehead!

The Secret

One day, one friend asked another,

' How is it that you are always so happy?

You have so much energy,

And you never seem to get down.. '









With her eyes smiling, she said,

' I know the Secret! '

' What secret is that? '

To which she replied,

I'll tell you all about it,

But you have to promise to

Share the Secret with others. '





' The Secret is this:

I have learned there is little I can do

In my life that will make me truly happy

I must depend on God to make

Me happy and to meet my needs.

When a need arises in my life,

I have to trust God to supply

According to HIS riches.

I have learned most of the time

I don ' t need half of what I think I do.

He has never let me down.

Since I learned that ' Secret ' , I am happy. '





The questioner's first thought was,

' That ' s too simple! '

But upon reflecting over her own life

She recalled how she thought a bigger house

Would make her happy, but it didn't!

She thought a better paying job

Would make her happy, but it hadn't.

When did she realize her greatest happiness?

Sitting on the floor with her grandchildren,

Playing games, eating pizza or reading a story,

A simple gift from God.





Now you know it too!

We can't depend on people to make us happy.

Only GOD in His infinite wisdom can do that.

Trust HIM!

And now I pass the Secret on to you!

So once you get it, what will you do?





YOU have to tell someone the Secret, too!

That GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU!

But it ' s not really a secret...

We just have to believe it and do it..

Really trust God!



I just did and hope you will too.







God closes doors no man can open & God opens doors no man can close. Even if you do not need God to open some doors for you, pass it on anyway.



"To have God on our side doesn't mean sailing on a boat with no storms, it means having a boat that no storm can sink!"
