Editor’s note - Firmament - The region of the air; the sky or heavens. In scripture, the word denotes an expanse, a wide extent; for such is the signification of the Hebrew word, coinciding with “regio“, region, and reach. The original therefore does not convey the sense of solidity, but of stretching, extension; the great arch or expanse over our heads, in which are placed the atmosphere and the clouds, and in which the stars appear to be placed, and are really seen.

Proverbs 3:13-18


13 Blessed is the man that findeth wisdom, and

14 For the merchandise thereof is better than the
merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof is better
than gold.
15 It is more precious than pearls: and all things
that thou canst desire, are not to be compared unto
her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand, and in her
right hand riches and glory.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasure, and all her paths
prosperity.
18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold on
her, and blessed is he that retaineth her.

Editor’s thoughts - In verses 5 - 10 we find that God is instructing us to trust Him, acknowledge Him, fear (reverence) Him, and honor Him. By doing these things He raises each of us up to being more like Him; that is to say following Him in righteousness. Our Creator knows of what we need, He shall not cast us aside. Seek Him and stay the course as proscribed in those verses and all will go well with you.

Open Letter to Speaker of the House Pelosi

Dear Madam Speaker;

A moment of your time to make three observations;

1) We already know what's in the bill, many of us have read it in it's entirety, or at worst, have read various sections at various times and have discovered one important fact that we all agree upon, the bill stinks and a large section of the population do not WANT this bill! Words mean things Madam Speaker and the words "Heck no!" mean exactly what they say, HECK NO! So since you consider yourself with a higher intellect that this average peon, I will be forced to guess that you DO know what it means and are deciding to ignore the will of the people.

2) The President, and the Congress (in particular yourself) promised transparency. About the only thing that IS transparent is that you and your ilk, are blatantly lying to the American people. We have waited through several versions of this bill (and others) for it to posted online for at a the very least a week, (which you ALSO promised to do), and have yet to see diddly squat. Suggestion, why not have your co-conspirators in the MSM, post it in their publications, or on C-SPAN? I am certain that since the congress LOVES to spend our tax dollars, that such an idea could be accomplished. I for one would find the money well spent. In fact I'm quite certain that should you demand it, it would be done for free. Just say jump and they'll ask how high.

3) This bill must really be bad if you feel the need to pass it right away before the American public can see how much we're going to be screwed. ( Please note number one to act as a point of reference. )

1 Timothy 6:10

Editor’s thought - Vs 19 - I have always maintained the idea of what goes around comes around. Such is the way of those that commit evil against others. When you bless someone, through charity, it is a double blessing, as it blesses those that receive and those that give. Conversely, the same is true that commit evil, it hurts those that it is being placed upon, and later on, hurts the one who has committed it.
