The Saturday Six

Picture from Hometown

1. What is the most inexpensive, non-valuable thing you tend to collect and hoard?  Coffee cups with sayings on them, or that are souviners from someplace.  Why do you do it?  Because they are either cute, so they make me smile, or remind me of someplace I've been, so they make me smile, or are a gift from someone I like, so that makes me smile.

2. What is the highest price you've paid per gallon for gasoline where you live?  Since I don't drive, I don't pay attention to gasoline prices.  I do know we were paying more than $2 a gallon recently, and now it's below $2 a gallon.  Do you use regular, mid-grade or premium?  regular

3. What is your favorite Bible verse and why?  Oh, I have so many.  The one that comes to mind right now is this:  "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths."  Proverbs 3:5-6.  If you don't have a verse from the Bible that holds meaning to you, what's your favorite saying and why?  Well, I do have a favorite verse, but may I still share a favorite saying?  "What goes around, comes around."

4. What was your favorite movie from the 1970s?  "Little Big Man"  When did you last view it?  last winter sometime  Do you have it in your movie collection?  Yes

5. Do you weigh more, less, or the same as you did one year ago?  Six months ago?  Three months ago?   the answer to all three is somewhat less

6. READER'S CHOICE QUESTION #54 from
Jennie: What one lyric sums up your current love life?  

 Storms Never Last: Waylon Jennings and Jesse Colter.

Storms never last do they, baby?
Bad times will pass with the winds.
Your hand in mine steals the thunder.
You make the sun want to shine.

Oh, I followed you down so many roads, baby;
I picked wild flowers and sung you soft sweet songs.
And every road we took, God knows, our search was for the truth.
And the storm brewin' now won't be the last.

Storms never last do they, baby?
Bad times will pass with the winds.
Your hand in mine steals the thunder.
You make the sun want to shine.

Storms never last do they, baby?
Bad times will pass with the winds.
Your hand in mine steals the thunder.
You make the sun want to shine.

 God Will Take Care Of You 

 Be not dismayed whate’er betide,
God will take care of you;
Beneath His wings of love abide,
God will take care of you.

Refrain

God will take care of you,
Through every day, over all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.

Through days of toil when heart doth fail,
God will take care of you;
When dangers fierce your path assail,
God will take care of you.

Refrain

All you may need He will provide,
God will take care of you;
Nothing you ask will be denied,
God will take care of you.

Refrain

No matter what may be the test,
God will take care of you;
Lean, weary one, upon His breast,
God will take care of you.

Your past?  "Bummin Around" as sung by Dean Martin, written by Pete Graves 

Got an old slouch hat, got my roll on my shoulder
I'm as free as the breeze, and I'll do as I please
Just a-bummin' around.

I got a million friends, don't feel any older
I've got nothin' to lose, not even the blues
Just a-bummin' around..

Whenever worries start to botherin' me
I grab my coat, my old slouch hat
And hit the trail again, you see.

I ain't got a dime, don't care where I'm goin'
I'm as free as the breeze and I'll do as I please
Just a-bummin' around.

Your hopes/dreams/fears? 

 BECAUSE HE LIVES

God sent his son, they called Him Jesus He came to love, heal and forgive
He bled and died, to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know, He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives

And then one day, I'll cross that old river
I'll fight life's final war with pain
And then as death gives way to victory
I'll see the lights of glory
And I'll know He reigns.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know, I know, He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives
