Yesterday morning at work I was changing the

channel on the DirecTV receiver in the break room.
It was changing the music they were listening to
all over the building.
Oops.
I heard people yelling but I could not hear what they said.
I tried to put it back on the
Sirius XM Radio
station
that they were listening to.
Sorry about that.
Alls I did was... hit the up/down channel button.
No one taught me how to run the thing.
Earlier the supervisor said to change the channel
or turn the thing off.
I heard that over the two-way radio.
I got up at 3:30 AM yesterday.
Hopefully I don't have to do that again.

John 1:16
He shares his love with you.
Receive this free gift.
Love the one that made you.

This morning I'm reading about
OBD-II
(On-Board Diagnostic system).
I watched the sunset like usual last evening.
"Later on, Jesus found him
Give up your sins.
Most cars starting in 1996 have this feature.
Very nice with many shades of colors from horizon to horizon.
I met someone that just got back from near Fairbanks, Alaska.
He said some days were -50 F degrees and
the roads are not very good.
It is a very beautiful place
but very dangerous if you get stuck.
in the temple precincts and said to him:
'Remember, now, you have been cured.
Give up you sins so that something worse
may not overtake you.'"
John 5:14
Surrender them.
They will cause death.
Jesus, forgive my sins.
I want to change my life.
I want to start over.
Heal me, Lord.

I think I had enough turkey yesterday.
"Jesus went on to address a parable to the guests,
How important are you?
noticing how they were trying to get
the places of honor at the table:
'When you are invited by someone
to a wedding party,
do not sit in the place of honor
in case some greater dignitary has been invited.'"
Luke 14:7-8
How great are you?
You are a child of God.
You are great in the eyes of the Lord.
Your honor comes from knowing Jesus.
(November 26, 2009 Thu 7:48 AM CST)
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
I finished chapter 10 of the SCJP book yesterday.
"I will give thanks to you, O Lord,
Jesus, we thank you for all that you have done.
with all my heart;
I will declare all your wondrous deeds.
I will be glad and exult in you,
I will sing praise to your name, Most High..."
Psalms 9:1-3
You have given us many gifts.
We have been blessed.
Thank you very much.
(November 25, 2009 Wed 8:55 AM CST)
Last night I met someone
"I am sure of this much:
We all take different paths and turns.
that I went to college with.
They recognized me and I did not recognize them.
We were at a .NET meeting at Farm Credit Services.
It has been a very long time since we have seen each other.
For two of the companies we worked for in the past
we were there at different times.
We just missed each other over the years.
God bless him and his family.
that he who has begun the good work in you
will carry it through to completion,
right up to the day of Christ Jesus."
Philippians 1:6
We meet many different people.
The Lord is with us every step of the way.

"It is not ourselves we preach
The message is from Christ.
but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves
as your servants for Jesus' sake."
2 Corinthians 4:5
It is not man-made/person-made.
It is the word of truth.
Read the inspired words of the Bible.
They were written for you.
(November 23, 2009 Mon 9:13 AM CST)
My nephew is sick.
I had to work the last 3 days.
This is a week to be thankful.
Jesus said,
It is a promise.
Please pray for him.
God be with him and heal him.
I am tired this morning.
I got up at 3:41 AM yesterday.
We did not have any customers for the first 2 hours.
There was no reason to open so early (6 AM) on Sunday.
The sunrise was pretty cool.
I did like that.
It reminded me of sunrises in Colorado on I-70
up in the mountains.
I'm told I missed the head guy of our company
that came to visit last Monday
and was shaking hands with employees.
I did not work that day.
A friend of mine has a new grandson
who was born on Friday.
God bless them and their family.
"I solemnly assure you,
if a man is true to my word
he shall never see death."
John 8:51
It is a solemn promise to you.
Trust in Jesus.
Believe in him.
Don't miss out when he comes to visit.
Find eternal life with him.
See a new dawn.

Pray for him and his family.
God be with them in this difficult time.
until about 8 PM when it went below the horizon.
Very beautiful.
I also talked to someone that just got back
from
Wayne, Nebraska
.
He went to visit his daughter.
He had a hard time recalling the name of the town.
'In those days after that tribulation
the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light,
and the stars will be falling from the sky,
and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.'"

There will be an end of time.

Yesterday I watched the Keynote address from
PDC09
.
There was an interesting crossword puzzle on
10-29-2009
.
"Jesus said,
Your power comes from the Lord.
(If needed, move the start to 10 minutes into the video.)
They talk a lot about "the cloud."
(Yes, I'm a little behind.)
They have the same word in all four corners.
See the clue at 40 ACROSS.
Very clever.
'You will receive power when the Holy Spirit
comes down on you;
then you are to be my witnesses in Jerusalem,
throughout Judea and Samaria,
yes, even to the ends of the earth.'
No sooner had he said this
then he was lifted up before their eyes in a cloud
which took him from their sight."
Acts 1:8-9
Ask Jesus for the power of the Holy Spirit.
You need it.
Open your eyes and see.
Live in the clouds of glory.

Yesterday I was studying about
Flex
.
Internet Explorer is acting strange sometimes the last few days.
"Here I stand, knocking at the door.
Open the door.
They mentioned it in the job interview yesterday.
One of the guys in the interview
participated by phone from Germany.
That was different.
When I arrived the door was wide open.
It was about 45 F degrees outside at the time.
They wanted to air out the place for some reason.
It was a little cold waiting for the interview to start
then someone in the office came and closed the door.
It went into an infinite loop yesterday opening
tab after tab after tab.
It might be a problem with email at yahoo.com that I use.
This morning I could not use the keyboard at all.
The mouse did work.
It might be a problem with the KVM switch again
so I disconnected it.
If anyone hears me calling and opens the door,
I will enter their house and have supper with them,
and they with me."
Revelation 3:20
Welcome the Lord in.
He wants to share his gifts with you.
He will warm your life.

"Zechariah signaled for a writing tablet

I have an interview today with a company that uses it.
Nathaniel has done a very good job
of presenting the information.
God bless him and his family.

'His name is John.'
This astonished them all.
At that moment his mouth was opened
and his tongue was loosed,
and he began to speak in praise of God."
Luke 1:63-64
Speak praises to God.
He has done amazing things.
He calls you by your name.

That was the first Saturday I have worked in many months.
I did not know about wearing red.
Someone even had a red hat

I got updates from people as the game was progressing.
We even won.
I brought in some brownies for the break room.
They were popular items.

Yesterday at work a man was wandering around
Yesterday I was studying
ActionScript 3.0
.
Jesus told a parable,
Are you wandering around?
where you usually don't see anyone.
He looked lost.
He was looking for his wife.
I asked him to call his wife on her cell phone a few times
and he did not respond to that.
When I talked to his wife later
it turns out that he has Alzheimer's disease.
Pray for him and his wife and family.
It is tough.
I had a phone interview yesterday with a company that uses it.
I need to learn about it.
"What woman, if she has ten silver pieces and loses one,
does not light a lamp and sweep the house in a diligent search
until she has retrieved what she lost?
And when she finds it, she calls in her friends and neighbors to say,
'Rejoice with me! I have found the silver piece I lost.'
I tell you, there will be the same kind of joy
before the angels of God over one repentant sinner."
Luke 15:8-10
Are you lost?
Turn on the light of Christ.
Find joy in him.
Ask him to forgive your sins.
Be found.

They had an advertisement in the newspaper that said

Oops.
Where was quality control?

"Then the angel spoke, addressing the women:
