AnnaNoelle's new forever home

AnnaNoelle came out of the Etowah county shelter where the vet said she should be put down due to glaucoma. Not on mine and Cindy's watch! She came to me on December 17, 2010 as a foster. On December 25, 2010, Christ's birthday, I announced to my husband Everett and to AnnaNoelle that she had her forever home with us. She seems to understand as her step has picked up and she is ever so happy. She is slowly gaining weight from a recorded weight of 39 on December 23.
She had surgery to remove her diseased eyes on December 23 as well as her spay surgery.

Bird houses

We have quite a few bluebirds on our property and thought we'd provide them nesting boxes. While I don't have pictures of them on any bird houses yet, we have seen them inspecting them. Here are a few of our bird houses. I'll share more soon.

Bird houses and birdbath

This year we've been working on putting out bird houses and set up a bird bath. The birds love the birdbath.

Faith

I am a believer in Christ. I will stand up for Him.

Please share this information with your friends. Regardless if this meeting ever happened, the content is true.

Muslim Belief

This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a

Well-known leader in prison ministry.

The man who walks with God always gets to his

Destination. If you have a pulse you have a purpose.

The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion 

Per capita in the United States , especially in the
Minority races!!
                                

Last month I attended my annual training session

that's required for maintaining my state prison
Security clearance.

During the training session there was a presentation

By three speakers representing the Roman Catholic,
Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each

Of their beliefs.

I was particularly interested in what the Islamic 

Had to say. The Muslim gave a great presentation of the
Basics of Islam, complete with a video. After the presentations, time
Was provided for questions and answers. When it was my turn, I
Directed my question to the Muslim and asked: 'Please, correct me if I'm
Wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have
Declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world
And, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims)
They are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you
Give me the definition of an infidel?'

There was no disagreement with my statements and, without

Hesitation, he replied, 'Non-believers!'

I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight.

All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill
Everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place

In heaven. Is that correct?'

The expression on his face changed from one of authority

And command to that of a little boy who had just
Been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.'

He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.' I then stated, 'Well, sir, I

Have a real problem trying to imagine Pope John Paul 

Commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or

Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in

Order to guarantee them a place in heaven!'

The Muslim was speechless!

I continued, 'I also have a problem with being your

Friend when you and your brother clerics are telling
Your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question: Would you rather
Have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to
Heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to
Heaven and He wants you to be there with me?'

 You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in

Shame. Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the

'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with my way of

Dealing with the Islamic Imam, and exposing the truth
About the Muslims' beliefs.

In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S.

To elect the President!

I think everyone in the U.S. Should be required to read this,

But with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely

Publicized, unless each of us send it on! This is your chance
To make a difference...

FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!  SEND THIS ON . . . . . ..
