Thanks be to God

For the fruits of his creation, thanks be to God.
For his gifts to every nation, thanks be to God.
For the plowing, sowing, reaping,
Silent growth while we are sleeping,
Future needs in earth's safekeeping,
Thanks be to God.
 
 
In the just reward of labor, God's will be done.
In the help we give our neighbor, God's will be done.
In our worldwide task of caring, for the hungry and despairing,
In the harvests we are sharing, God's will be done.
 
For the harvests of the Spirit, thanks be to God.
For the good we all inherit, thanks be to God.
For the wonders that astound us, for the truths that still confound us,
Most of all that love has found us, thanks be to God.

Paris

God bless those killed and injured in the terror attacks in Paris. These attacks are a horrific reminder that evil is out there. It will always be out there! How do you feel about the Friday attacks in Paris?
1) People without common sense said:
 "Thank God they don't allow guns here, we feel especially safe."
2) People with common sense said:
 "How can anyone be stupid enough to believe we are safe in gun-free zones."
3) Politicians said:
 "I can't believe we fooled people into thinking they would be safe in gun-free zones."
4) Terrorists said:
 "It's like shooting fish in a barrel!"

When you create "gun-free zones" and disarm law-abiding citizens all you do is embolden criminals and terrorists. Don't make it easier for the bad guys to commit mass carnage in America.
