Did you see?
Did you see the two Christian ads on the Super Bowl? These were about Jesus Christ, as a way to those that might be skeptical. One focused on “How Children Demonstrate Jesus’ Love” while the second focused on “How Children Deal With Anger.” This Campaign took off in March 2022 and is funded by Holly Lobby’s CEO, David Green, and other anonymous donors. The Campaign states “The agenda to “Rediscover the love story of Jesus” for Christians, Non-Christians and everybody between all of us.” It was shared on their Twitter page on 2/12 as the “world’s biggest influence coming to television the world’s biggest stage. The Tweet states that the website explains what is at the heart of the slogan.” (I say, God bless them and may the harvest be plentiful !)
The Federal National Debt Ceiling Limit approaches in the coming months! A reporter asked McCarthy, after his meeting with President Biden, if he could ensure that the U.S. will not default on its obligations? According to the reporter, President Biden is acting responsibly, while the Republicans hoped to destroy the economy. McCarthy used an analogy to address the question. “Give your child a credit card and they spend over the credit card limit, you are responsible for the debt.” We must increase revenue or decrease expenses. McCarthy said “If the current trend continues, we will spend $8 trillion on interest over the next 10 years. The interest is enough to push bankruptcy. Our debt in America is our biggest threat!”
Did you listen to Sarah Huckabee Sanders, first female elected as declared winner of the Governor of Arkansas, in her rebuttal to Biden’s SOTU speech? If you remember, she was Trump’s spokesperson and a very good one! She went with Trump everywhere all over the world. (Me, it was wonderful!) Look on Huckabee.com or YouTube “HE GETS US” to listen.
Billboard in Ohio, corner of RT 30/39 - picture of V.P. Harris and President Biden: big letters under Harris “DUMB.” And under Biden “DUMBER.” I can’t imagine who charged Biden’s battery for his State of the Unionaddress the other night. He must have been on a sugar high?
WLBT had an interesting segment this week! “New Baby Surrendered To “Baby Box” that was installed less than 3 months ago. This happened in Florida 1/5/23. “Safe Haven Baby Boxes” was founded by Monica Kelsey, who was abandoned as an infant. The “Baby Box” allows for the safe and anonymous surrender. Long Beach, Ms. is the first Ms. city to start approval of a “Baby Box” where parents can anonymously give up infants.
As we all have probably heard about the Balloons being shot down this past week, but did you see the size of the first balloon? The canopy, destroyed by the Missile, was estimated to be about 200 ft. tall and equipment underneath was the about the size of a Regional Jet, weighing more than 2,000 lbs. The second one that was shot was reportedly about the size of a small car. Now the U.S. Military is left to pick up wreckage as members of Congress express concerns. (Wall Street)
Prayer concerns: Diane Haralson, LaReece Crimm, Judy Wade, Doug Elkins, Clay Stewart, Joyce Latham, Wanda Harrison. Sincere sympathy to the families of Kei’Erika Harris, and Wayne Belk in the loss of their loved ones. Sincere sympathy to families of people killed/lost in Turkey, injured, missing and all involved!
“When we do not prioritize going to church, we shoot ourselves in the foot, we shoot our kids in the leg, but we shoot our grandkids in the heart”. (Dr. Shawn Parker, Executive Director, MBCB). Quit looking for a “perfect church.” Go worship a “perfect God” with a congregation of flawed people who needs grace as much as you do!
Aging Gracefully: Yesterday: Fixed hair and Makeup — Saw no one; Today: Looked like Jack Nicholson, from “Shining” — saw all the people I know, all of them!
Have a blessed week and share it with others.
