I vaguely remember her, but I remember well how much you enjoyed her site. She would be a welcome addition to fellowship here. Even if she's not joining boards right now, wish her well for me if you make contact...

"If God had a refrigerator your picture would be on it."
The cave on higher ground, Amen.

Our fridge has a photo of a little brother from our church who's in Iraq right now. Reminds us to remember him in prayer each time we go in the kitchen. He gets prayed for a lot at our house... ;D

Wow, congrats on your loss! Thanks. That was about 8 years ago. Battle is to keep it off, hence the picture. Weigh in now at a whopping 125 pounds... ;D Praise the Lord!

I tell ya! Jesus meant what He said...He will work a work and he does. I think sometimes He does even without us knowing it. It doesn't seem we have come that far till we look back...and see where we have come from.
Praise the Lord and pass the ammo! from a cave on higher ground Amen!

Haven't been to the cave in awhile so thought to come and dust imaginary books and fluff imaginery pillows and air out the imaginary mattress...on my imaginary bed where I come to rest and hide from the world.
Fumble with a few books and papers at my Dad's old roll top desk, sit and think about changes...got alot of them coming. Seems I hit 60 and things started to change and they just keep happening.
I don't like closing the house in the summer but when it gets so humid I bite the bullet, close it up, and turn on the air...I get a closed in feeling that I don't get in the winter and don't know why exactly except that it's summer and the windows are suposed to be open wide!
I remembered my Grandparent's house and the sounds and smells of summer. Sunday afternoons after church out in the backyard with big family gatherings...then church at night...all with the window flung wide open!
Retirement is coming. Thought about getting out my resume after 29 years and dusting it off...gonna go job hunting. Took on another job at church that will start in September. To take it I have to give up teaching my SS class...that is making me a little sad. I loved doing that. But like retirement I will be moving on to the next work the Lord has for me to do.
When I think I just can't do it...I remember Caleb. He is my hero...he was faithful and true and followed the Lord...out of Egypt, 40 years in the wilderness, across Jordan into Canaan...up to the mountain the Lord had promised him and at the ripe ole age of 84 said..."Lord, give me this mountain"...
Now, I am not 84, just a young 61, but I have come out of Egypt, across a wilderness, crossed Jordan and now looks to me like I might be standing in front of a mountain...I suppose in a way what I am doing...
is the same thing. I know that if I am on the wrong path, the Lord will straighten me out so I will travel on...in faith...and trust in Him. He got me this far so I 'speck He will get me the rest of the way OK.
From a cave on Higher Ground, Amen.

For safe keeping
Goin' By The Book Johnnie Cash
You can see it in the movies and the paper and the TV news Somebody's army is always on the move There's gonna be a battle the lines have been drawn They've got guns and tanks and planes
The wells are gone dry and the water is bad and the air is acid rain There's war after war and rumors of war from the East There's a rumblin' in the ground and they're talkin' about the beast
Good mothers cry cause the rivers run high With the blood of too many sons Some people say peace is on the way But the worst is still to come
Cause the prophets wrote about it And Jesus spoke about it And John got to take a look And he told us what he saw when it's easy to see It's goin' by the book It's goin' by the book
There's armies in the cities and the missiles stand ready for flight A pale horse rides like the wind across the night And that rumblin' in the desert like thunder gettin' closer And the trumpet's gettin' ready to blow There's gonna be a shout that will wake the dead we better be ready to go
Cause the prophets wrote about it And Jesus spoke about it And John got to take a look And he told us what he saw when it's easy to see It's goin' by the book It's goin' by the book
It's goin' by the book Goin' by the book __________________

As I've read through some of the posts here and especially on page 4 about the MB Abiding, I think sometimes that steve and I should just shut CIC down cause the only one that seems to post anymore there is Kiefer. The decision I know is not mine nor steve's but the Lord's and when he decides it's time to close it then it will be time.
God bless

This world is not my home I'm just a passing through My treasure's all laid up Somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me through Heaven's open door And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh Lord, You know, I have no friend like you If heavens not my home Then Lord what will I do The angels beckon me from heaven's open door And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.
I love that hymn, reminds me that all the troubles here are only temporary. We are simply aliens in an alien land. How good it will be to finally go home.
What a wonderful thread.

One day the trumpet will sound and those left behind will be looking for the truth. Something posted at CIC could be what causes them to turn to the Lord...

Absolutely right, don't lose faith Bill. In a short time, Proboards version 5 is going to be released. One of the neat things you'll be able to do is merge topics together. You could consolidate a lot of the information at CIC! Merge a bunch of like-minded topics into one, then get rid of some of the boards you don't need. Easier to read through and not as much to take care of. Don't do anything radical until you've prayed on it...

The Lord tends to nudge and guide us in the direction He wants us to go. I'm praying for you.
