Isaiah 2: 6-11
The Day of the Lord
"6
You, Lord, have abandoned your people,
the descendants of Jacob.
They are full of superstitions from the East;
they practice divination like the Philistines
and embrace pagan customs.
7
Their land is full of silver and gold;
there is no end to their treasures.
Their land is full of horses;
there is no end to their chariots.
8
Their land is full of idols;
they bow down to the work of their hands,
to what their fingers have made.
9
So people will be brought low
and everyone humbled—
do not forgive them.[a]
10
Go into the rocks, hide in the ground
from the fearful presence of the Lord
and the splendor of his majesty!
11
The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled
and human pride brought low;
the Lord alone will be exalted in that day."

Always beautiful Saint Patricks, Built between 1809 and 1815. It was the third Catholic church build in NYC. The site selected for the new church was being used as a cemetery for St. Peter's, and at the time was well outside the settled area of the city, surrounded by farmland. Farm land in lower Manhattan.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, do not rely on your own understanding; think about him in all your ways and he will guide you on the right paths.

This was one huge storm cloud passing by - and because we are in extreme drought, the moisture was the silver lining!
Proverbs 31:30 “Charm is deceitful and beauty fades; but a woman who fears the LORD will be praised.”
Time is money, a proverb, finding it's origins in an essay by Benjamin Frankland 'Advice to a Young Tradesman" On Americas 250th birthday I find this Ironic. My advice to the tradesman is don't waste your time trying to get money from Donald.
Another proverb is Time is more valuable than Money meaning you can get more money, but you will never get more time. Prophetic Donald!!!!! PS this is out of focus deliberately to give the sense time is moving while money is static

Charlie Chaplin, the early 20th century comedian, was a very wise man who quoted this proverb often. He was famous for his acceptance of people and his tolerance of differences between people.
Happy Bench Monday
Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
"That's what the ox from the meat bridge could have told me" is used when an answer to a question is predictable or unsatisfactory.
"I might as well have told that to the ox on the meat bridge" means something like 'talking against a wall'.
Incorporate these two proverbs into your language from time to time and see which of your fellow human beings already know the story behind them. We're sure not too many
„Das hätte mir der Ochs von der Fleischbrücke auch sagen können“ wird verwendet, wenn eine Antwort auf eine Frage voraussehbar oder unbefriedigend ist.
„Das hätte ich genauso gut dem Ochs auf der Fleischbrücke erzählen können“ bedeutet in seinem Sinngehalt in etwa so viel wie ‚gegen eine Wand reden‘.
Bau diese beiden Sprichwörter doch mal gelegentlich in deinen Sprachgebrauch ein und schau, welcher deiner Mitmenschen die Geschichte dahinter bereits kennen. Wir sind uns sicher, nicht allzu viele
I believe time travel is possible but not what we read in science fiction books or have seen in the movies. The difference here is not the belief that anyone can go back in time to change anything, that is silly and nonsensical arrogance. We can learn from the past, but we can’t change it.
C.S. Lewis tells us that we are in Time, constrained by time and space but that God is not in Time. What we call yesterday or tomorrow is visible to Him the same way we call today.
Someday we will all pass on to our next adventure beyond the limitations and sorrows of our temporary home. When that time comes, I will find myself in the presence of God, the Creator of Heaven and Earth. Will I then no longer be constrained by Time? The book of Proverbs tells us that Wisdom was the first of His works where she was continuously by God’s side at Creation, “…filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence, rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.”
I believe we can all share that delight and witness the forces that created the Heavens and Earth, you just have to believe.
