Colossians 1:9-12 "We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all the saints." This is a letter from Paul and Timothy to the Colossians in support of their faith, encouraging them to keep in the faith and keep doing the good work they have been doing. We need to do that with one another. It is why we attend church, to be in support of our family of believers in our own church home. We are also called to support other churches and people in our city, state, country and the world by caring and showing our Christian hearts to the world. Wear your faith on your face by giving a kind smile to everyone you meet.
Get Fit
Nicole gave me the smaller resistance bands for Christmas one year. You can put them around your ankles and stretch out your legs side to side, or, around your thighs for squats,lie down and do sit ups etc and your arms. They are great for working out your whole body.
On this day
2013 Lent came early this year and on Wednesdays our church makes lunch for after the noon service and dinner before the night service. Mom, Nicole and I always liked these because the food was good, served up by different groups in the church. On this day my ladies circle, Grace did the lunch so I attended both lunch and dinner. Lent doesn't start till March 6th this year - with Ash Wednesday.
1809 - The U.S. Supreme Court ruled the power of the federal government was greater than that of any individual state. Makes sense to me or we would not be a nation.
Sardinia
Around the 9th century BC the Phoenicians began visiting Sardinia with increasing frequency, presumably initially needing safe overnight and all-weather anchorages along their trade routes from the coast of modern-day Lebanon as far afield as the African and European Atlantic coasts and beyond. The most common ports of call were Caralis, Nora, Bithia, Sulci, and Tharros. Claudian, a 4th-century Latin poet, in his poem De bello Gildonico, stated that Caralis was founded by people from Tyre, probably in the same time of the foundation of Carthage, in the 9th or 8th century BC.[32]
In the 6th century BC, after the conquest of western Sicily, the Carthaginians planned to annex Sardinia.[33] A first invasion attempt led by Malco was foiled by the victorious Nuraghic resistance. However, from 510 BC, the southern and west-central part of the island was invaded a second time and came under Carthaginian rule.[33][34]
So many great tales of history around the world.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday Stephanie!!
