Had a very intersting weekend. Went and stayed in Portland for my niece’s wedding. Yes, that is the Portland that has had 101 straight days of rioting. Well, we hit it lucky. The smoke from the wild fires in Oregon was so thick, the rioters were too cowardly to come out and play. Of course they were back in full force today.

Ted Wheeler, (Weak Man) the mayor of that city, told the Portland Police they couldn’t use tear gas anymore because it was too harmful. So the Federal Agents protecting the Federal buildings used it instead. I love it!!

I know this all sounds wee bit harsh, but people have died; businesses have been destroyed, and many police were hurt.

Thought I would share a couple of jokes to cheer us up. We can really use it.

  1. People who think times heals everything haven’t sat it out in a doctor’s waiting room!
  2. What do you call an apology with dots and dashes, re-morse code.

Just got an email from a Sargeant Major from Vermont a few minutes ago. He is battling COVID-19, and he lost his wife to it August 30th. Sad to hear one of our brothers is going through so much pain. Be strong my friend and get well.

I am hanging strong for President Trump. This man loves the military, and people are tryng to quote him as saying the military are, “suckers, and losers.” DIDN”T HAPPEN!! They are getting desaparte because the polls are tighting fast. Trump will prvail and our nation will grow even more than it did.

Supreme Court judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away today. A big loss to the liberal cause. She was a great lady. I didn’t agree with much of what she believed, but I admire her for her leadership.

I have some more stats for you on what our veterans are doing to help others:

  1. $667,931 has been raised to help children of fallen and disabled veterans.
  2. 380 pounds of food was collected for the Community Shelf by Post 89 in Perlla, Iowa.
  3. American Legion District 12 cheered up veterans at the Wilkes-Barre VA Medical Center in their parking lot. Waving of flags, a parade of American Legion Riders came by , and they sung their own rendition of , “God Bless America.”
  4. 1700-Approximate number of COVID-19 tests that was provided daily by the Travis L. Williams American Legion Post 65.
  5. Ameriecan Legion post 10 in Albany, Oregon staged a community celebration of lives on July 4th to honor freinds and loved ones lost during the pandemic. The flag was raised and lowered to each name as it was read. They played taps and Amazing Grace.

It seems to me that if President Trump is reelected he will start going full throttle at cleaning up the cities that have rioters. Time to put a stop to this smadness.

He is doing such a great job considering that everyone of the Fake media is after him, as well as the democrats. He faces the storm head on. We need him to continue his great leadership.

______________________________________________________________________

I was amazed to see the pact agreement between three Mid-East countries. The Fake Media is playing it down because it is ony an agreement. What do they want???? Not one president ever has been able to this type of agreemt. I am told several other countries in the Mid-East are wanting to sign an agreement as well. President Trump was nominated by two countries for the Nobel Peace Prize, After this gets out he shoud have many more nominate him.

Kind of short today, but we are off to a wedding in the morning, and the boss wants me to try on a bunch of cloths.

I had one post recently on writer’s block. Today I was writing OK, but just needed to get away from the computer. My back was hurting, and my vision was getting blurry.

Today, I stopped, and did my laundry, loaded the dishwasher, and watched a movie. That was enough time to rest my eyes from the close screen, and flex my back a little.

There are times when writer’s block isn’t the only problem. You may need to get away just to refresh yourself.

Some of us are so disappointed in what we see as love— even to the point we can’t imagine God’s love.

I have a friend who was all set to be married, and his wife, to be, told him she changed her mind and left him broken hearted just weeks before the wedding. To add an insult to injury, she married another guy within six months. My friend has never married, and is still careful about his relationships with women.

The problem is—human love is convenient.  It’s limited.  We can’t depend on it.  It’s hormones—it’s emotional.  Like eating the wrong thing before you go to bed.  It felt good at first—but now?  Not so much! It actually leads to heart burn.

However, God’s love is unlimited.  It is commitment. God has feelings for us, but his feelings don’t dictate his love.  God’s love is based on His decision!  His love is deeper and more secure than anything you’ve ever experienced in your life. God never Changes. His love is eternal.

So what do we do to make our love a better version?  How about if we express God’s love in our human relationships? How about we become that “someone” in the life of another who can look back and say, “I saw God’s love in them!”

I realize that could be very hard to do if you were like my friend. He did nothing wrong. He was struck down for no reason. However, I can tell you that my friend is a most loving guy, that may not know how to show it sometimes, but he would give you the shirt off of his back.

“This is what real love is: It is not our love for God; it is God’s love for us. He sent his Son to die in our place to take away our sins.  Dear friends, if God loved us that much we also should love each other. No one has ever seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is made perfect in us.  I John 4:9-12″

If we could show that much love, the world would be a very different place.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken,

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!
