Bible Verses

If God is for us, who shall stand against us?

Whoever listens to me will live in safety
and be at ease, without fear of harm.

Proverbs 1:33 NIV

______________

They will no longer be a prey to the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not devour them; but they will live securely, and no one will make them afraid.

I will establish for them a renowned planting place, and they will not again be victims of famine in the land, and they will not endure the insults of the nations anymore.

Then they will know that I, the LORD their God, am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are My people, declares the Lord GOD.

Ezekiel 34:28-30 NASB

______________

The LORD is my light and my salvation;
whom shall I fear?

The LORD is the strength of my life;
of whom shall I be afraid?

When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes,
came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

Though an host should encamp against me,
my heart shall not fear:
though war should rise against me,
in this will I be confident.

Psalm 27:1-3 KJV

______________

Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift:
Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God
is the object of our faith; the only faith
that saves is faith in Him.

Many Wives

Just happened to read this in my email tonight and wanted to share it with you.

Many Wives
==========

A little boy was attending his first wedding.

After the service, his cousin asked him,
"How many women can a man marry?"

"Sixteen," the boy responded.

His cousin was amazed that he had an answer so quickly.
"How do you know that?"

"Easy," the little boy said.

"All you have to do is add it up, like the pastor said,

4 better, 4 worse, 4 richer, 4 poorer."

New Year in Ramstein

during our afternoon walking at Ramstein

I wrote in my blog before that I spent New Year with friends in Ktown. I also mentioned that it was the first time I spent it without my husband. During our stay there, we went to some places like Trier, the oldest city in Germany. That was really very nice. Now I'm back home but still a bit busy. So just trying to update my blog here for all of you dear readers.

Here are some pictures taken during the New Year which I want to share with you. Wish everyone a very nice and relax evening! Also sending my best regards to all my friends online.

Bible Verses

Pride goes before destruction...

Unleash the fury of your wrath, look at every proud man and bring him low, look at every proud man and humble him, crush the wicked where they stand. Bury them all in the dust together; shroud their faces in the grave.

Job 40:11-13 NIV

______________

Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth. Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.

Proverbs 27:1,2 KJV

______________

But "he who glories, let him glory in the LORD." For not he who commends himself is approved, but whom the Lord commends.

2 Corinthians 10:17,18 NKJV

______________

Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift:
Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God
is the object of our faith; the only faith
that saves is faith in Him.

Cluttered

Behind every great idea,
every significant achievement,
every important accomplishment
is a full wastebasket.

Or a cluttered blackboard.
Or a doodled-up legal pad.

Is scribbling all it takes?
Are you just a cramped writing hand away
from changing the world?

Probably not.

But no one ever led a revolution of any kind
with his hands in his pockets.

Think About It.
