Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees,the Pharisees got together. One of them, an expert of the law, tested him with this question: "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied " Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it : Love your neighbor as yourself. all the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments. Mt 22:34-40
Ecc 3 1-11
1. There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven
2. a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot
3. a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build
4. a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance
5. a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to to refrain
6. a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away
7. a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak
8. a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace
9. What does the worker gain from his toil? 10. I have seen the burden God has laid on men.11. He has made everything beautiful in it's time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men;yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

Directions For Use
The Getsit Retriever is a easy to use tool for retrieving items dropped or left on the ground when hunting from a treestand.
1. With the caribiner, simply attach to pull rope when needed. Quarter or eigth-inch poly cord seems to work best.
2. If retrieving items that can be retrieved with the magnet, lower to the ground, when The Getsit is within a couple inches it will attach to metal and the item can be easily retrieved back to your elevated position.
3. When the hooks are needed you manually pull the hooks out of the slot toward the top of the body. The hook will pivot on the pivot ring. The hook will snap into the slot at the bottom. Snapping the hooks into the slot at the base will make a solid grappling hook out of The Getsit.
4. Lower to the ground ,with the spring steel hooks, anything that can be snagged can be easily retrieved .
5. The hooks are then easily folded back into the slots at the top of The Getsit. If the hooks become loose when folded up they can be manipulated back to a tight pressure fight with a pair of needle nose pliers.
The Tip of the Cross
The Tip of the cross is all I could see.
Where Jesus bleed and died for me.
He said I would deny him,
Three times I would lie.
As I sit here hiding.
I can't help but cry.
On a hill called Golgotha,
The place of the skull,
My heart was breaking,
My body was dull.
The Tip of The Cross was all I could see.
Where Jesus bleed and died for me.
The story did not end there, this version is true.
Yes he died for me and for you.
His friends who were feeling such a great loss,
Came and took Jesus body down from the cross.
A man named Joseph gave Jesus his tomb,
Out of the rock it had just been hewn.
The Tip of the Cross was all I could see,
Where Jesus bleed and died for me.
Then came two women on the third day.
To annoint Jesus body,to prepare it for the grave.
As they came to the tomb, the stone was rolled away.
The light shown from within was brighter than the day.
As they entered the doorway, they were overcome with fear.
An angle stood before them and said " He is not here."
As they turned to leave, there Jesus stood .
He said " I have risen just like I said I would."
Go tell my diciples, go spread the good news
And remember I will always be there for you.
The Tip of the Cross was all I could see.
Where Jesus bleed and died for me.
As I sit here surrounded by family and friends.
I try not to let it happen again.
Jesus says I will lead you, guide you, and show you what to do,
But I will not make you it's yours to choose.
I can sit here hiding on the side of this hill.
Or I can climb up, face him, and do his will.
The Tip of the Cross is all I could see.
Where Jesus bleed and died for me.
The Tip of the Cross is all I could see,
But I knew my Jesus was praying for me.
If the Tip of the Cross you cannot see,
Call out on Jesus, fall down on your knees.
The Tip of the cross is there to be seen.
By a world that is dying,
A world that's in need.

Something To Think About
Joey Cox
I recently came across a story that I found interesting, and decided to share with you all.
The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 cups of coffee...
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee...
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes." The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things-God, family, your children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions -- things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
"The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car.
"The sand is everything else -- the small stuff.
"If you put the sand into the jar first, he continued, there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.
"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18.
There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.
"Take care of the golf balls first -- the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand. One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."
