This is something that I found on Facebook. It's a new blog with helpful hints on how things we should stop saying. This left me thinking and that led me in sharing it with you.

Philippians 4:8
8 And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
1Then Samuel took a flask of olive oil and poured it over Saul’s head. He kissed Saul and said, “I am doing this because the Lord has appointed you to be the ruler over Israel, his special possession. 52When you leave
First I just want to thank y’all for your prayers, we really do appreciate it.
I was declined Social Security Disability because they say John makes too much money….LOL….That’s why I used to work 4 jobs. So going to hope we can hold out till October 28, that’s when I’ll be 62 and then apply for Social Security.
1As Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel.2Joel and Abijah, his oldest sons, held court in Beersheba.3But they were not like their father, for they were greedy for money. They accepted bribes and perverted justice.
4Finally, all the elders of Israel met at Ramah to discuss the matter with Samuel.5“Look,” they

Exodus 13:17-18
17 When Pharaoh finally let the people go, God did not lead them along the main road that runs through Philistine territory, even though that was the shortest route to the Promised Land. God said, “If the people are faced with a battle, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.” 18 So God led them in a roundabout way through the wilderness toward the Red Sea. Thus the Israelites left Egypt like an army ready for battle.

THE LORD CALLS SAMUEL
1Meanwhile, the boy Samuel served the Lord by assisting Eli. Now in those days messages from the Lord were very rare, and visions were quite uncommon. 2One night Eli, who was almost blind by now, had gone to
1There was a man named Elkanah who lived in Ramah in the region of Zuph 1 in the hill country of Ephraim. He was the son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, of Ephraim.2Elkanah had two wives, Hannah and Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah did not.

1One day Naomi said to Ruth, “My daughter, it’s time that I found a permanent home for you, so that you will be provided for.2Boaz is a close relative of ours, and he’s been very kind by letting you gather grain with his young women. Tonight he will be

Deuteronomy 31:6
6 So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”
1Now there was a wealthy and influential man in Bethlehem named Boaz, who was a relative of Naomi’s husband, Elimelech. 2One day Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, “Let me go out into the harvest fields to pick up the stalks of grain left behind by anyone who is kind enough to let me do it.”
I got this idea from the hot dog venders in N.Y. They have hot dogs, sausages, onion in tomato sauce, sauerkraut, mustard, catsup and of course buns or hoagies. You would tell them what you wanted on your hot dog or sausage. Sort of like Burger King...."Have it Your Way". LOL...
1In the days when the judges ruled in Israel, a severe famine came upon the land. So a man from Bethlehem in Judah left his home and went to live in the country of Moab, taking his wife and two sons with him.2The man’s name was Elimelech, and his wife was Naomi. Their two sons were Mahlon and Kilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in the

1Then the people of Ephraim asked Gideon, “Why have you treated us this way? Why didn’t you send for us when you first went out to fight the Midianites?” And they argued heatedly with Gideon. 2But Gideon replied, “What have I accomplished
1So Jerub-baal (that is, Gideon) and his army got up early and went as far as the spring of Harod. The armies of Midian were camped north of them in the valley near the hill of Moreh.
2The Lord said to Gideon, “You have too many warriors with you. If I let all of you fight the Midianites, the Israelites will boast to me that they saved themselves by their own strength.3
