Understanding, Compassion, Dignity...

Matthew 25:34-40

Jesus speaking:

...“Then the King will say to those on His right, 


‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.


For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ 


Then the righteous will answer Him, 


‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 


And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 


When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 


The King will answer and say to them,


Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’...

Thankful for all the USA vets who did their duty, honored their country, and gave their lives if need be, for our freedoms.

Thank you, Nelia, you speak for SO MANY!!

Oh, what we have lost these past years of our own peoples not being taught true history, the populace seemingly indifferent, only one person caterwauling The Star Spangled Banner when WE ALL SHOULD BE SINGING IT! and then Veterans of every service getting a "thank you" from some -with others despising the very country which gives them the freedom to think on their own.

AHH! Let's praise the LORD or His graciousness of freedom past and present and look forward to our true freedom with Him in Glory!
