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.

Wonderful and so true ... Thanks John M!

FW: WONDERFUL and SO TRUE !!



 


To: LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDECINE.


      WONDERFUL and SO TRUE !!
      Every Husband and wife will love this poem!

      I have a little GPS
      I've had it all my life
      It’s better than the normal ones
      My GPS is my wife

      It gives me full instructions
      Especially how to drive
      "It's thirty miles an hour", it says
      "You're doing thirty five"

      It tells me when to stop and start
      And when to use the brake
      And tells me that it's never ever
      Safe to overtake

      It tells me when a light is red
      And when it goes to green
      It seems to know instinctively
      Just when to intervene

      It lists the vehicles just in front
      And all those to the rear
      And taking this into account
      It specifies my gear.

      I'm sure no other driver
      Has so helpful a device
      For when we leave and lock the car
      It still gives its advice
     
      It fills me up with counseling
      Each journey's pretty fraught
      So why don't I exchange it
      And get a quieter sort?

      Ah well, you see, it cleans the house,
      Makes sure I'm properly fed,
      It washes all my shirts and things
      And - keeps me warm in bed!

      Despite all these advantages
      And my tendency to scoff,
      I do wish that once in a while
      I could turn the darned thing off.

Nuff said! ... Thanks John M!

 A group of young women decided to arrange for

a camp with their mothers-in-law to hopefully get to know and understand each other better..  Two buses were hired, one for the mothers-in-law and the other for the daughters-in- law.  Unfortunately the bus with the mothers-in-law was involved in an accident and all the passengers died on the spot.  The daughters in law (women being women) shed a few tears but they were all puzzled by one sister who wailed uncontrollably for what they perceived to be her loss.  Her friend asked her, "Forgive me for asking but why are you crying so hard, I didn't realize u were so close to your mother-in-law? " to which she replied, 





 "No we are not close at all, she missed the bus!"
