A Stage They're Going Through?

We must pray for our young ones to follow Christ. It is not healthy--nor is it a stage they're going through--to sin. And, here's the "OUCH," Isaiah 53:6 says:

We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to his own way;
and the LORD has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.

Expressions Explained, Part 7

Early politicians required feedback from the public to determine what the people considered important. Since there were no telephones, televisons, or radios, the politicians sent their assistants to local taverns, pubs, and bars. They were told to "go sip some ale" and listen to people's conversations and political concerns. Many assistants were dispatched at different times. "You go sip here" and "You go sip there."

The two words "go sip" were eventually combined when referring to the local opinion and, thus we have the term "gossip."

I'm showing a blue operating room with a surgeon dressed in blue because tomorrow the second surgery to fix the blockage in my bladder is scheduled. Once again, I ask for your prayers.

Happy Blue Monday!

Expressions Explained, Part 6

Common entertainment included playing cards in the 1700s. However, there was a tax levied when purchasing playing cards but it was only applicable to the Ace of Spades. To avoid paying the tax, people would purchase only fifty-one cards.

Yet, since most games require 52 cards, these people were thought to be stupid or dumb because they weren't "playing with a full deck."
