Will I Live to see 80?

Here's something to think about. 

  

I recently picked a new primary care doctor.  After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age. (I just turned 49.) 

  
A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, 'Do you think I'll live to be 80?' 

He asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer or wine?' 
'Oh no,' I replied...  'I'm not doing drugs, either!' 

Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs? 
'I said, 'Not much... my former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!' 

'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?' 
'No, I don't,' I said. 

He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?' 
'No,' I said. 

He looked at me and said,...  'Then, why do you even give a shit?

Ah these women ..

Believer turns to God:
 

- All my life I have not sinned, let me enjoy it a little bit before my death. I've always wanted to see Hawaii, but I’m terribly afraid of planes, and on the ship, I fill sick. Can you make me a bridge to Hawaii so that I can go there by car.
 

God said to him:

- This is really very complicated wish ... And where would be the supporting pillars, where the gas station ... Beside that, the sea is very rough. Really, what you want is technically very difficult and almost imposible. Can I realized some other, less demanding wish?

 

- Well - said the man. - I'd like to understand women ... Why they say one thing and think another. Why they constantly crying. Why they have a different logic than us mens. Why is constantly complaining

and queasy. Why they always misrepresentated our statements. Why they envy each other and gossip about each other ... Well, I want to. To understand women!

And God says:
-Do you want your bridge has two or four lanes?

A history lesson: Who was Hayim Solomon?

Who was Hayim Solomon?

 On the rear of the One Dollar bill, you will see two circles. Together, they comprise the Great Seal of the United States.

The First Cintinetal Congres requested that Benjamin Franklin and a group of men come up with a Seal. It took them four years to accomplish this task and another two years to get it approved.

If you look at the left-hand circle, you will see a Pyramid.

Notice the face is lighted, and the western side is dark. This country was just beginning.We had not begun to explore the west or decided what we could do for Western Civilization. The Pyramid is uncapped, again signifying that we were not even close to being finished. inside the capstone you have the all-seeing eye, an ancient symbol for divinity. It was Franklin's belief that one man couldn't do it alone, but a group of men, with the help of God, could do anything.

"IN GOD WE TRUST" is on this currency.

The Latin above the Pyramid, ANNUIT COEPTIS, means 'god has favored our undertaking.'

The Latin below the Pyramid, NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, means, 'a new order has begun.'

Af the base of the Pyramid is the Roman Numeral for 1776. (MDCCLXXVI)

If you look at the right-hand circle, and check it carefully, you will learn that it is on every National Cemetery in the United States It is also on the Parade of Flags Walkway at the Bushnell, Florida National Cemetery, and is the centerpiece of most hero's monuments. Slightly modified, it is the seal of the President of the United States, and it is always visible whenever he speaks, yet very few people know what the symbols mean.

The Bald Eagle was selected as a symbol for victory for two reasons:

First, he is not afraid of a storm; he is strong, and he is smart enough to soar above it.

Secondly, he wears no material crown. 

We had just broken from the King of England Also, notice the shield is unsupported. This country can now stand on its own. An the top of that shield you have a white bar signifying congress, a unifying factor. We were coming together as one nation. In the Eagle;s beak you will read,'E PLURIBUS UNUM' meaning, 'one from many.'

Above the Eagle, you have thirteen stars, representing the thirteen original colonies, and any clouds of misunderstanding rolling away. Again, we were coming together as one.

Notice what the Eagle holds in his talons.He holds an olive branch and arrows. This country wants peace, but we will never be afraid to fight to preserve peace. The Eagle always wants to face the olive branch, but in time of war, his gaze turns toward the arrows.

They say that the number 13 is an unlucky number.

This is almost a worldwide bwlief. You will usually never see a room numbered 13, or any hotels or motels with a 13th floor. But think about this:

13 original colonies,

13 signers of the Declaration of Independence,

13 stripes on our flag,

13 steps on the Pyramid,

13 letters in  'Annuit Coeptis',

13 letters in 'E PluribusUnum'.

13 stars above the Eagle,

13 bars on that shield,

13 leaves on the olive branch,

13 fruits,

and if you look closely,

13 arrows.

And Finally, if you notice the arrangement of the 13 stars in the rigt-hand circle you will see that they are arranged as a < I SPAN> Star of David. This was ordered by George Washington who, when he asked Hayim Solomon, a wealthy Philadelphia Jew, what he would like as a personal reward for his services to the Continental Army, Solomon said he wanted nothing for himself but that he would like something for his people. The Star of David was the result. Few people know that it was Solomon who saved the Army through his financila contributions but died a pauper.

I always ask people,'Why don't you know this?' Your children don't know this, and their history teachers don't know this. Too many veterans have given up too much to ever let the meaning fade. Many veterans remember coing home to an America that didn't care. Too many veterans never came home at all.

UNITED STATES ONE DOLLAR BILL,

and what it stands for!

Jesus vs. Santa

CHRISTMAS REMEMBER:

Jesus is Better than Santa

Santa lives at the North Pole.

JESUS is everywhere.

Santa rides in a sleigh

JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.

Santa comes but once a year

JESUS is an ever present help.

Santa fills your stockings with goodies

JESUS supplies all your needs.

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited

JESUS stands at your door and knocks.. and then enters your heart.

You have to stand in line to see Santa

JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.

Santa lets you sit on his lap

JESUS lets you rest in His arms.

Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, What's your name?"

JESUS knew our name before we did. Not only does He know our name, He knows our address too. He knowsour history and future and He even knows how many hairs are on our heads.

Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly

  JESUS has a heart full of love.

All Santa can offer is HO HO HO

JESUS offers health, help and hope.

Santa says "You better not cry"

JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.

Santa's little helpers make toys

JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions.

Santa may make you chuckle but

JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.

While Santa puts gifts under your tree

JESUS became our gift and died on the tree.

It's obvious there is really no comparison.

We need to remember WHO Christmas is all about.

We need to put Christ back in Christmas.

 

Jesus is still the reason for the season
