@Cherishingsparrows2020 amen

So many broken, hurting people...yes we, too, are pressing on - doing what we believe God has called us to do, with all we are and have to offer, such as it is, for God to grow as He wills it - for His Kingdom 🙂

Jo and I had a similar conversation about the end times. Ultimately, of course, we've been near them since Jesus was here, so we carry on, carrying on for His Name to be praised, 'running the race marked before us'.

Thanks for your comments - they're very encouraging and uplifting!

"16% of petrol stations now have fuel" (rather than the 10% figure over last weekend). that's a direct quote from the UK Government (well the first part is - the bit in brackets is the rest of the equation)

or, 74% of petrol stations in the UK currently have insufficient, or no, fuel - like our local one, that is dry of fuel again

The UK is in an unusually difficult situation regarding fuel supplies. and [no] it won't get better overnight; [yes] it is affecting many people and [no] it won't simply go away just because it will [eventually] return to normal

And, unlike the BBC - who love inciting a panic - I do not believe that tanker drivers in military uniforms will cause widespread panic - actually I suspect they'll receive a round of applause wherever they turn up.

And I also like the truth - all of the truth, because I'm a big boy and can make my own mind up correctly when presented with the facts.

Now for the British thing, I'm off for a cup of tea to sort the world out

@sinbach wow!

@xtian fab little clip

Thanks

@tanjaostman Thanks kindly

God was good

My dad left when I was 4, but God put 3 different godly men who took me into their different families and loved me in different ways, so I lost a human dad and gained 3 godly ones (my dad was about, but he was far more interested in his new wife and her children, rather than his own sons)

My mother was an extreme narcissist...don't know what that word is in Finnish....that created some very specific challenges to me!

God is good. He gave me my Joanne...she is awesome and has spent nearly 30 years building me up, and encouraging me to believe in myself as a child of God, and trusting that I can do more than I think I can

@Kruselady

Dust was last week 😉

This week is mud 🙂

And that's British weather for you - about as reliable as a british summer 😂

@tanjaostman I keep seeing this same message from God into my heart...I really must believe in myself to do what I already know God is calling me to do

Lots of painful memories back along of people criticising my abilities as a child, and adult, that don't always stay in their rightful place - where they belong (in the past!!).

@DevotionalTreasures well worth a few moments of your time Dingdashers to read this great, deep, well rounded post

@Toddkapper I went to Denmark as a child, for a holiday (to Legoland of course!)

But it left an impression on me that has lasted well through the three decades since I was last there.

Very friendly people, lovely architecture and great food...

@DevotionalTreasures Family pets are precious...praying on

@DevotionalTreasures any news Alan?

A unique route today...including our overcoming of a fallen tree. Turn round, or go over? Over of course!

Plenty of mud today, too.

But, just like our lives, some time with a hose (and a brush) can clean off all that junk that is sticking to us!

@TakeN Fab stuff

@davereimer @MiBurrito @tymektt supermarkets have many gaps across the UK...that isn't spoken of much

CO2 was almost not existent due to a spike in gas prices...the CO2 is heavily used for meat transport in the UK

Carbonated water disappeared weeks ago. Not a huge concern, but it's a basic thing you expect to see, and there's just permanent gaps now

@davereimer Its all ok, apparently...the government minister said so!!

In truth, no, not good...lots of fearful people, and we're all told to go in with our lives as normal....which is great, unless you need fuel to get to work....

Media hyped it out of proportion. UK Government pointing fingers at the general population, hauliers, the media, and anybody else they can ...but they were warned about this ages ago........it upsets me because it is totally unecessary...all those hurting people 😠

With Peter up til past 10pm due to the weekly noise pollution that forces us to either watch super loud films through our surround sound system (cranked up to 11) or loud music (cranked to 11), we're currently playing monopoly, while reliving some great tunes from albums we got rid of years ago....but man did they have some great tunes!
P!nk. Anastacia. Guns n Roses. Nirvana. Evanescence. Manic Street Preachers. Michael Jackson. Red Hot Chilli Peppers. The Cure. Queen.

And more...

Detached houses have their upsides ;-) especially on Monday nights when our only hope is drowning out the dreadful dirge from next door that the council have deemed 'nearly a statutory nuisance, but not quite'
