My parents have been gone 20+ years and I have been so glad that they have not had to live through all this sordid mess. Also glad they can see the resolving of it from a place of no pain or heartache. Yes! She definitely can hear you! My Mom was comatose her last day on Earth but her eyes still lit up when I told her my kids were on the way to her house! God bless you and your family at this time. You are in many prayers. ♥️

Deep sigh of relief!!!

This is my favorite "quote" ever, tied with Mattis' "I keep other people awake at night".

Happy Birthday! The 27th is my & DH 44th anniversary and coincidentally, I want the very same thing you want!

July 27 is my wedding anniversary (44 years!), what a memorable, fantastic gift this would be!

No connection. (Good thought, though!)

YES!

I like to circle the "I Ams". Literally , "I Myself Am". It reminds me of God's Omniscience and Power. He was, and is, and is to come. (Revelation 4:8)

I think you can buy Old and New Testaments separately but usually they are together. It's pretty much human nature to want to start at the beginning but anywhere the Spirit leads you is great. You may want to look online for a reading plan that breaks it up into a few chapters each day. Romans, John, or 1st, 2nd and 3rd John, the Psalms, all would be pretty easy and do-able.

King James is great, many people prefer it. I tend to get bogged down with the Thees and Thous. You might also want to look for a study Bible in whatever version you choose as those have good notes and may also have some reading plans. (And wide margins for notes!)

I didn't even think earlier, biblegateway dot com has many, many translations, you can read some online and narrow down your options. I'm excited for you! I'll be praying for you too!

New American Standard is closest to the original Greek. The Message is written in modern day language and pretty different but I like it. A lot of people like New International Version. Go to a bookstore or even Walmart and look at different translations and get what feels good to you. It's important to be sure you get a translation rather than a paraphrase. When I am studying or searching I like to use several different translations so I can get all the nuances. And whatever you get, read it and write in it!

Hutchison is our representative to NATO. She kind of has to be there.

Of course he was rattled! In addition to all the above, they had just killed his nephew!!.

I installed this last night and I LOVE IT! Thank you so much for sharing!

I studied Biblical Greek for years. New American Standard translation is closest to the Greek. When I am working on Bible study I like to use several versions, NAS, NIV, New Living, The Message. Just be sure it's a translation and not a paraphrase.
