Psalmist

:e4e: Happy Thanksgiving to you as well, sir.

The very same and best to you and yours. I was only just discussing some of this with anna, considering how part of the joy of aging is found in the wisdom of a maturing mindset. These days I smile to think on what I will do and who I will be able to help when the work I put into my literary effort bears fruit. God bless and keep you in the first formal step toward the greatest day of the year (Easter, for the heathens who might step by).

All the calamity that has befallen you up until now is because of the manner in which you have treated the saints. You wouldn't see this of course, but I can assure you that you have tears of self pity to come. You will soon discover the worth of your stinking self righteousness.....zero.

Hello Psalmist, I like your new home page. I hope all is well with you and Mrs psalmist. God bless you.

Go and pick on someone who doesn't fight back.

Truster reminds me of the Hawaiin queen in Michener's work. When the minister is telling her about grace she turns to her people and proudly proclaims, "I will find grace in three days!"

The powers that be must have pulled Truster's message. Saw the report and decided to mosey over and bury it under other messages if need be. Me and mine are coming out of our spate of illness and Jack is warming to the first holidays he truly understands. My very best to you and the Mrs. and larger family as we begin to enter my very favorite time of year, celebrating the birth and life of Jesus Christ.

God bless.

This is a tough one this time for respiratory illness (copd) it's bee difficult getting and keeping the fluid of the left lung. It can be real uncomfortable, no sharp pains, but i know the there is a problem. The copd is stage 4 terminal, which means my lung capacity is between 20-25% for both lungs, then the is the 40% kidney function thing...Anyway I do my internet thing early in the morning because the restof the is very quiet for me. Thanks for prying with us, I count you as a dear friend: and I have not forgotten our discussion about Jesus being Father, Son and Spirit. I'll be back later.

Just checking in. How are you feeling brother? Im praying for you.

Thank you for the expression of concern. I will lift up prayers for your own situation.

I got onto the track this month, but my horse is mostly interested in the grass around the starting gate.

My prayers are with you, dear brother. Just wanted you to know I appreciate all your posts.

As for the snot who gave you a neg rep...at least Knight left a heavy rep favoring pos rep in play. So I'll be doubling down on that in short order.

Mine got pruned too...Well so much for archiving.

I had a thread where I touched on it in route to discussing my conversion, but I think it ended up pruned. I once had a little over a hundred threads and now I'm in the 80s...wish I could have chose the ones lopped. I have a dozen no one would miss. I'd have liked to have kept a couple that are fini. Such is life.

Not Catholic, though not terribly far removed. I was brought up in the Episcopal church. I can't remember off hand where I spoke to it...:think:

I'll have to refresh my memory on Psalm 23, but the Sermon on the Mount I've spent a great amount of time on. I also find Job most comforting. While evil may still be present in this world, God will not allow those who are His to be tempted beyond their means to endure. And on the otherside, we will be better for it and amply rewarded. The reward I look forward to is the pleasure of His company.

I know I shouldn't have name called people on TOL. I don't quite have my epilepsy med balanced with my anti-anxiety med. Anyway, thank you for listening to me, praying for my wife and myself, and not judging me for my present lack of control. I started putting people back on Ignore. We'll see how that works. So far, so good.

Psalm 91 is a great psalm. I thank you and your wife for your prayers. I'm very near the breaking point. Not violent in the least, just mental/physical fatigue.

Thank you. I believe in the power of prayer and greatly appreciate it.

Meanwhile, I work 5 days a week, 40+ hours a week, in a department I was placed in where I can use none of my 40 years of engineering experience. My boss penalizes me when I ask questions that she believes I should know in a department I have no experience in. She has told me she is keeping an e-mail file on me that shows I was blunt 3 times in 2 years. One of the side effects of my epilepsy medicine which I take anti-anxiety meds to temper the side effects.

This week I have made a formal complaint against her and her boss to Human Resources and Ethics. I've had one interview so far, so far, so good.

In addition to my wife's health problems which are more severe, the IRS is claiming we owe money we don't because of a banking error in 2010-11. Other than that, life is all rosy.
