Sorry, Kareem, but you have simply swallowed the bs from the far left. Every millionaire sports figures like yourself should go see the movie, "Thank You for Your Service." Thousands of service men and women have paid the price so people like you can make millions, and then sit in your easy chair and whine. Millions of Americans, yes millions, understand what I have just written and reject your notions. What is happening in the NFL can also happen in the NBA.---Empty seats, Empty stands. Millions of Americans are demonstrating that we really don't need to buy your tickets or watch your games. We honor our fallen and wounded heroes too much. You and your protesters really aren't needed. Bill Morgan.

ISAIAH 9:2,6,7 The people that walked in darkness Have seen a great light They that dwell in the shadow of death Upon them hath the light shined For unto us a child is born Unto us a child is given And the government shall be upon his shoulder And his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor The Mighty God The Everlasting Father The Prince of Peace Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end Upon the throne of David And upon his kingdom to order it And to establish it with judgment And with justice from henceforth even forever The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this IN THE DARKEST NIGHT In the darkest night There exists a light That cannot be diminished Or dimmed 'Tis the light of Christ That lights our way No matter how lost We may be It calms our soul And takes control Of all our fears And foes It gives us pause To contemplate And sets us free To worship Thee (Written on October 11, 2017) SPIRITUAL Rx (3) Psalm 3:3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me: my glory, and the lifter of my head Psalm 18:3 I will call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies Psalm 22:3 But. thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel Psalm 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake Psalm 27:3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear Psalm 34:3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together Psalm 56:3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee Psalm 61:3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy Psalm 63:3 Because thy loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee Psalm 67:3 Let the people praise thee, O God, let all the people praise thee (Written on 6 August, 1978---509) ISAIAH 8:10,13,16,17,18 Take counsel together and it shall come to naught Speak the word and it shall not stand For God is with us Sanctify the Lord of hosts himsef and let him be your fear and let him be your dread Bind up the testimony Seal the law among the disciples and I will wait upon the Lord that hideth his face from the house of Jacob and I will look for him Behold, I and the children the Lord hath given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts which dwelleth in Zion SAND IN MY SHOES I have sand in my shoes As I walk the sandy beach Wondering at times just why My God seems so out of reach Maybe he's been searching for me And it is I who is out of touch So many things happening in my life Haven't had time to listen much If only I would stop awhile And listen to the autumn breeze Maybe I could hear him better If I kneeled upon my knees Let me hear thy voice, O Lord I am but a simple man Guide me with thy quiet voice Uphold me by thy hand ROUGH DIAMONDS On occasions, we have tried so hard to be so good, so right, so perfect... and have failed so miserably. And then, we have punished ourselves with feelings of guilt, inadequacy and shame. When, what we really needed to do was to learn to accept ourselves...as we are. For, after all, God has. Certainly our Heavenly Father desires us to become like Him. But, He is wise enough to know that our God ward journey may take a little time. While on this journey, may we learn to love and like ourselves so that we may better love and like others. And, don't forget, that the diamonds on display on the jeweler's shelf...were once lumps of coal like us. (First published on October 23. 2012) ISAIAH 7:10-14 Moreover the Lord spake again unto Ahaz saying ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God Ask it either in the depth or in the height above But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the Lord And he (the Lord) said O house of David It is a small thing for you to weary men but will you weary your God also? Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and (ye) shall call his name Immanuel WHAT COUNTS THE MOST What counts the most in our lives? Great thoughts True friends Honest toil Prayer time Words sublime Quiet places Clean hands Pure hearts Humble souls Unbroken promises Old truths New beginnings Immortal intimations That which counts the best... should count the most. (First posted on October 10, 2012) HOW GOES THE SUN? Wrote St. Paul, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath." (Eph. 4:26) How many marriages could have been salvaged by just obeying this one admonition. How many sons and daughters might still have fond memories of home had these words been heeded. How many hearts may have been saved from breaking simply by acquiescing to the spirit of gentleness. Tonight, may the sun not go down our wrath, but rather...upon our serenity.
