Hi Thomas,

I agree God gave us the tools but not many are using them.

I just see the people waiting in line for the gimmees rather then stand up and fight for the USA. It's time for them to start using the tools and not think that the handouts will save them.

Shalom,

Peter

Hello Thomas,

After my first reply this "joke" came to mind and I think it explains the situation well.

Shalom,

Peter

A man caught in a flood prayed to God for help. While he was on his knees praying, a police officer came to the door and offered to evacuate him, but he said, “No thanks, Officer, I’ll stay here, God will deliver me” and resumed his prayers. Then a person in a rowboat came by as the waters were rising, and the man said, “No thanks, I’ll stay here, God will deliver me” and continued praying to God for help. The waters continued to rise and the man had to climb onto his roof. At last a helicopter came with a ladder and the pilot told him to climb aboard. He again refused, all the while sitting on the roof and praying to God. Finally the waters covered him and he drowned. After he got to heaven he told God how disappointed he was that God didn’t answer his prayers. God said, “What do you mean I didn’t answer? I sent a police officer, a rowboat and a helicopter; what else did you want?”

Now that was funny Peter i enjoyed that one, it just makes you wonder why prayers without a good heart wont be answered in the way one might expect? perhaps his heart wasn't rightious enough , you know that scripture.  God gives warning signes but without knowing what they are? how can you know. I cant do a joke as well as some so just call me the good humor man LOL. Thanks Peter. God_bless you :)

Hello Peter,

You got that one right, Hmmm! And the first one as well. J

A police officer, a rowboat, a helicopter…. Some may say that it is luck when these things lucky streaks come about, I usually say that luck is simply the name that God gives to himself when he takes action here in disguise!

Friendly yours,

Robert.

Sunny Greetings from California, Peter!

Since the Obamas moved into the White House, I have seen more of the GIMME, HAND-OUT, WELFARE, ENTITLEMENT, and TIN-CUP mentality
than ever before in the history of the  United States.

Here are some of the demands from the "
GIMME" group:
Give me a $650,000 house, give me a condo, give me a car, give a me plasma TV, give me free iphone, give me free health care, give me free degrees, give me free lunch, give me money from the rich, give me more welfare money, give me 8 hours' pay for 4 hours of work, give me a free stimulus dinner, and on and on.
Then comes the whining from the "Poor Me" group:
Why do other people always get promoted when I've been here longer? It just isn't fair!
Why didn't I get named employee of the month since I have been here longer than other people?
It just isn't fair!
Why do I always get the hard jobs and my co-workers get the cushy ones?
It just isn't fair!
Why do my kids get bad grades in school?
It just isn't fair!
Why can she eat anything she wants and still stay slim?
It just isn't fair!
Here are some of the demands from the "ENTITLEMENT" group:
It's the government's responsibility to take care of my kids while I'm working or partying.
I have a right to own a house whether I can pay for it or not.
Rich people have a lot more money than I do, so the government needs to take some of their money away and give it to me.
Even if I'm single, it's my right to have as many babies as I want, and the government must help to feed, raise and educate my kids.
If I'm obese, I expect the government to pay for my liposuction. If I get wrinkles, I am entitled to a free face lift.
Even if I am an undocumented immigrant, I have just as much right as any citizens of the United States to free government services, free medical care, and free education. After all, it is a FREE country!!!
Even if I am in this country illegally, if I commit a crime, I demand free legal services.
If I am pregnant and I sneak into the United States to have my baby, I am entitled to free maternity care, my baby is entitled to automatic citizenship, I am entitled to remain in the United States with my anchor baby, and all my relatives from my home country are entitled to come here as well.
If I don't speak English,
I am entitled to have all documents, voting materials, signage, packaging, driver license exams, etc. in my native language. And my kids are entitled to school books and classroom instruction in my native language.
If I am an illegal alien, I don't have to show proper document when a deputy sheriff asks for it during a traffic violation.
I have a right to vote without showing any ID. Requiring me to show an ID is discrimination.

Even if I don't believe in the U.S. Constitution and I am working to destroy it, I am entitled to the protections of the Constitution. 
I don't have to show my birth certificate to prove that I was born a U.S. citizen and therefore qualified to be president, because I am Obama.

These are the horrifying directions in which our great nation is heading. Obama and his extreme leftist cronies in the U.S. Congress are working furiously to turn our great nation into a totalitarian and miserable socialist system like many countries around the globe. Those Americans who blindly voted for Obama because he promised to give them everything without them having to earn it are largely responsible for the sad conditions of our country that we and our children, grand children, and great grand children will have to endure.

Until next time--

Shalom!
