..He is a Sheep Dog who was injured while on duty and is in the hospital. He and his family need our prayers. But I do think that they may know the Lord as their Saviour. His sister mentions this song in a resent post on the blog about Deputy Norsworthy (Link: http://www.jd3006.blogspot.com/ you can read about it here), so I looked it up and thought I'd share it (Of course I chose an oldies version :).
You'll just have to ignore the talking, I couldn't find this version without :)

Thank the Lord Day!
I was just thinking about Thanksgiving 1945. We had been at war for 5 years, now there was peace at last and the (some of) boys were back! What a special thanksgiving day that was : )Monday, September 20, 2010
'Tis enough
My faith has found a resting place, Not in device or creed;
I trust the everlasting one, His wounds for me shall plead.
I need no other argument, I need no other plea,
It is enough that Jesus died, And that He died for me.

WHO???
"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
Who wrote this... nobody knows really. Some people say it was Winston Churchill or it's from the poem "Tommy" by Rudyard Kipling, or of course there's the people who say George Orwell.
I just spent probably an hour or more trying to find the truth, I didn't find it.
So if you do know the auther... tell me!
Whoever the auther, he had it right.

Favorite Crime Show Quotes
"Get this and get it straight! Crime is a sucker's road and those who travel it wind up in the gutter, the prison or the grave. There's no other way, but they never learn."
Philip Marlowe
"This is the city: Los Angeles, California. I work here. I'm a cop."
"Ladies and gentlemen, the story you are about to see is true. The names have been changed to protect the innocent."
"We could've piled up a hundred years of great policemen and great detectives: men with honor and brains and guts. You tore down every best part of them. The people who read it in the papers, they're gonna overlook the fact that WE got you; that we washed our own laundry and we cleared this thing up. They're gonna overlook all the good. They'll overlook every last good cop in the country. But they'll remember YOU. Because you're a bad cop".
Sgt. Joe Friday
"Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of man... the Shadow knows (evil laugh)"
The Shadow
(Marci note: truly only the Lord knows the hearts of man)
If you mess with me or any of my family, I'm gonna scatter your brains from here to the white plains, sweetheart. Kojack

I just thought I'd add my new photo of some of Houston's Finest (and some crazy cowgirl, whose friend convinced her to get her picture taken:). They really look like vets don't they?
One more thing, Guess what next week is??? National Peace Officers Week!!! May 9-15, So fly the Blue! Royal blue is the ribbon color to show support for your Police. If you want more info this site has the facts http://www.jupiter.fl.us/jpd/police_week.cfm and the http://www.nleomf.org/ is the site for the National Police Memorial.

for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil. Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of wrath, but also for conscience' sake. Romans 13:4-5

Because of God...
Ah, I just spent 3 hours working in the great outdoors with my hands in the soil :). It is a beautiful day, nice breeze.
The book I'm reading(for the second time:) has a chapter entitled " Because of God". It's a beautiful scene where a child is telling a man about bees; the different types of bees, their jobs and how they are so excellently equipped for the jobs, why they do what they do. One thing mentioned is that the books (about bees), the wisdom of men so to speak, don't know why the bees do as they do, and the child says it's Because of God. So simple, but it's the answer the world in all it's wisdom misses all the time. Just like it says in the first chapter of I Corinthians of the bible.
1Co 1:21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.
The title of the book is "Keeper of The Bees" by Gene Stratton Porter, if you ever see a copy (it's hard to find) you should pick it up and read it, it's an amazing story very, very well written.

Thank you Lord :)
Go ahead, Drive the nails in my hands;
Laugh at me where you stand;
Go ahead, and say it isn't me;
The day will come when you will see!
'Cause I'll...
rise again; Ain't no pow'r on earth can tie me down;
Yes, I'll rise again death can't keep me in the ground!
Go ahead, and mock my name;
My love for you is still the same;
Go ahead and bury me;
But very soon I will be free!'Cause I'll...
Rise again; Ain't no pow'r on earth can tie me down;
Yes I'll rise again death can't keep me in the ground!
Go ahead, and mock my name;
My love for you is still the same;
Go ahead and bury me;
But very soon I will be free!
Go ahead and say I'm dead and gone,
But you will see that you were wrong
Go ahead, try to hide the Son,
But all will see that I'm the One!
'Cause I'll...
Come again; Ain't no pow'r on earth Can keep me back;
Yes, I'll come again
Come to take my people back.

If you were wondering...
I have been having trouble with my header picture, but have not had the hours needed to figure out how to fix it. So it is, as is for now.
I just came from hearing someone talk about ... well, the single season of life and preparing for marriage. The speaker was making the point of family relationships (parents/kids brother/sister) and how they are the best things to work on to be ready for marriage.
And that how you are now,how you treat them now is how you'll be when married and how you'll treat your spouse.
We don't think much about how we treat our brothers (speaking from girls point of view:) is how we'll treat our husband.
He's a brother not a spouse, the constant annoying character who knows just how to bug you. And we view our future husband as Prince Charming, Well he won't be, he'll be (most likely) somebody's brother! he won't be perfect! and if you can't get along with your brother, it will be hard to get along in a marriage.
The Lord has set us in the perfect training ground for our future homes, in our families. As a daughter we learn to submit to our fathers, future preparation right.
So we can work on doing that job well now, not conniving to get our way or not taking no for an answer, nagging,complaining. If we can listen to our fathers now, it will be easier to submit to husbands later. It's the role God has given us women, if we go against His order (Man being head of the household, and children under parents etc.) it will only cause... well, disorder and unhappiness in our home and lives.
By the way, the things said about brothers doesn't not in any way mean my brother is always annoying. He's a dear, but there are times:) brothers are meant to sharpen us I think.
Also help your brothers become future husbands, let them open doors, help you and above all don't nag, let them take the lead (unless of course they're 4, and even then you can let them act the gentleman towards you) , All things I need to work on.
Wow, I wasn't planning on a real post, but here one is, maybe.

A Hero Dies :(
Fess Parker star of Disney's Davy Crockett movies, the Adventures of Daniel Boone and the father in Old Yeller died today at age 85.
The day of wholesome family enterainment is so far gone most people today do not even know who this man was. Though I'm not a baby boomer who had the coonskin cap of the day, he was a childhood hero of mine.
Fess Elisha Parker Jr. was born August 16, 1924 in Fort Worth, TEXAS! height 6'6" well a half inch off from 6'6". Here's a rare thing, a hollywood actor with one marriage and a lasting one, 50 years : ) 1960-2010. There are 2 Parker children,11 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild. He also served our county in the Navy during WWII.

Spring Dreaming
I'm dreaming of spring, the best time of the year. It's almost here, though it's freezing outside right now.
The Lord has given us a beautiful gift in spring. All the plants poking little green heads up, brand new fluffy ducklings around the parks, little mini turtles, bare feet, spring planting, Oh how I love to dirty my hands in my first planting of the year. So many years I just couldn't wait til our last frost had passed so I could start the garden.
Dandelions! I love dandelions, I have so many fond memories of childhood connected with them, flower chain crowns and necklaces, decor for braids and mud pies. Of course I shouldn't leave out Crow Poison, they were a big part of flower crowns too.
Spring memories wouldn't be complete with out mentioning Chickweed, As a child I'd spend hours just popping the seed pockets of chickweed (it's edible too, and good for you).
Tadpoles! aren't they the coolest, cutest little things and the most fun a kid can have! Baby lizards too they are really really cute:)
Our beautiful Texas flowers Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush will be out in spring too, one of the biggest reasons for spring being the best season.
Oh and to finally have warm hands:) I'm not for all this cold weather.
The Green of Spring
~Marci~
Spring, the sweet spring, is the year’s pleasant king,
Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,
Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The palm and may make country houses gay,
Lambs frisk and play, the shepherds pipe all day,
And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!
The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet,
Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit,
In every street these tunes our ears do greet:
Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to witta-woo!

Just Cause
Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.
