Yes to all, a good morning, God is amazingly good to all, hard for some to see when we all have been through troubles here in this life on earth anyway.
Maybe it is not punishment, rather a perfecting through what looks like punishment, there might be much to learn and be in seeing what it can teach me.
Like as I know of no one that can hold two faces one to the public and the other to self, without coming to bewilderment as to which one is true. That is when I personally saw the need to be saved from my wretched self, and sought truth from God personally. Now thanking God each day for God's amazing Mercy given through Son, Christ, in appreciation.
Thanks

Another T.G.I.F. is upon us here on C.C. 
Wow, got a story to tell though......
Went fishing yesterday, and while it was just a so-so day as far as fishing is concerned, there was some serious excitement/concern that took place. My Bro-in-Law and I went down to the Tennessee River, just below the Guntersville Dam to fish, and as we were sitting there contemplating the various reasons why fish don't bite.....sigh....I noticed a Johnboat coming up the river towards the Dam.
The guy driving gunned the engine, and was really erratic in his driving, and just about the time I began to wonder what his problem was, I couldn't believe my eyes. The guy driving took a really, really sharp right hand turn, and the guy next to him LITTERALLY flew up out of his seat, did a feet over head cartwheel RIGHT INTO THE RIVER..........I shouted at my Bro-in-law......."did you see that guy go in the river?" Yup............anyway, the guy driving, did a quick turn and started back to where his buddy/whoever had fallen overboard......and we were watching to see IF he came up.
(for those that don't know, rivers are very dangerous JUST BELOW a Dam, because of the very strong currents created when the Flood Gates are open, and the current yesterday was really, really strong)
So, I jumped up, ran partway down the shoreline, shouting at the guy, "do you have him.....?" Again and again, and the guy/driver had turned off his engine, and was hanging over the side of the boat trying to get hold of the guy in the river......they were directly in the strongest part of the current, and drifting pretty fast.......I knew there wasn't much time, so I grabbed my Cell and dialed 911.....told the Operator the situation, and still kept screaming at the driver....... "Have you got him, is he ok?"
Don't know how long it all really took, maybe 10 to 15 minutes, but it seemed much longer than that. So, they kept drifting, and I kept screaming at the guy, and FORTUNANTLY I could see the one in the river bobbing up and down.......told the 911 Operator that they might need River Rescue to respond.......BUT FINALLY the guy in the boat yelled back at me..........."Yes, I got him." And I could see him pulling his buddy into the boat.....
NO, neither of them had on a Life Vest.......wow, how dumb is that? Anyway, told 911 that the guy was in the boat and then shouted back to the driver asking if his buddy needed Medical attention. He said no, that he was ok...........so I informed 911 that it appeared that everything was ok, and thanked him for just being there.
Short end of the story is, these two had drifted well over 200 yards down river with me following along the shore Cell phone to ear shouting back and forth with the driver of the boat. When he finally got back to the Landing, I went to talk with him to really see that the other guy was ok, and while (in my opinion only I suppose) it appeared to me that the guy who had fell in was either "in shock," or "going into shock" his friend said he was ok, and he was taking him home.....
Man, I was praying in my mind the whole time for this guy. Can't tell you how many times there are News Stories about people falling into the river here, and the end result is far more tragic......once every week or two AT LEAST.
I was so thankful this guy made it safely out of the river, and was able to go home last night to his family.........could have been far different..........and I thank God it wasn't.

Wow, Brother what a story, and glad all turned out all right. Prayers are there for the whole thing. I have seen this before the drowning of a kid, it is terrible, yet I know God has got him now,
And a good morning to all, in spite of all the terrible things that do go on day in and day out, knowing some how someway God, has got it all together, not seeing how, trusting how.

Good morning to you as well Brother............and TO ALL..........
I thank God it turned out the way it did............whew............I wanted to say so much to that guy, but it just wasn't the time considering what he had just been through..........God was surely with him that day...........and I said as much, but that was about all I got to say because they were in a hurry to get him home.........or maybe to the Hospital, don't know......I just hope he is well today.........and realizes how close he came to eternity.........AND I pray he knows Jesus as Lord and Saviour.

People may go away but you always remain
Things may get harder but you always alongside me

And it is another beautiful day, give God thanks and praises, for us through Son, Christ, that we can enter his courts in confidence and approach his throne of grace in confidence, thanks to the finished work of Jesus Christ, where by his death if we believe have been made perfect, the only way to Father
Colossians 1:22 in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
amazing yes?

Yes and I second that.
And maybe ponder on this verse below, and ask if anyone can improve on what is said is done:
[h=3]Colossians 1:22 Living Bible (TLB)[/h]
[SUP]22 [/SUP]He has done this through the death on the cross of his own human body, and now as a result Christ has brought you into the very presence of God, and you are standing there before him with nothing left against you—nothing left that he could even chide you for;
[h=3]Colossians 1:22[/h]King James Version (KJV)
[SUP]22 [/SUP]In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

[SUP]22 [/SUP]But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation—
Thanks, I personally have not been able to figure out how to improve on what
God said is done, anyone else?
And again another good morning to all can we rejoice, while in the midst of: troubles?
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
