Feed My Sheep



Feed my sheep was  Jesus' instruction  to his disciples...the sheep meaning those who follow him...Christians. The 'feed' was the truth that God sent his only son to save us from our sins.

It came to my mind when I was working on this layout of Caleb feeding the animals at Ft Collins City Farm.  Of course there are a few goats here.  And they want fed as well.  Caleb was happy to help them.

Tonight on Facebook, I found another picture of him and his cousins at the same place feeding those animals.  His Mom's sister and mother are there visiting him, along with his cousins Patrick and Katy.

I would like to be there with them, But, it was a great day here this Saturday. We had the first cool day we've had in months. I thanked God for the relief from the heat and the rain that is making everything green again after a terribly dry summer.

News from Washington made me glad to be an American. A wonderful Christian family man ( He is Catholic) with a great financial brain has joined the Romney  ticket. These two men together have what it takes to get this country turned around and prosperous again, with sound budgeting and simplified tax rates. They will be able to save Medicare for us and for those who come after us.

Did you know that no president, except for FDR, has even been reelected with more than  7.2% unemployment?  It is true. And as has been said, Barak Obama is no FDR.

When George W. Bush left office, the unemployment was lower than it has been at any time since. 

More people were working and fewer needed food stamps.  

Gasoline is between $3.58 -$3.89 in this area today. Are we better off now than we were  four years ago?  If you are, it is probably  because you have profited greatly by the failure of one of the companies in which  our president has invested and lost our money.  You might be able to afford to fill up you tank with that expensive gas.  

We need to put our people back to work and drilling for oil and gas is a great way to get started.
