May 25, 2019 Saturday #Prayer#Family#Politics#1,000BC!

Get Faith
Luke chapter 9  "Then Jesus called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal."  Do you believe that you can drive out demons and cure diseases?  We are not part of the twelve but we are disciples if we believe in God and that He sent his son Jesus the Christ to die for our sins so that we have eternal life with Him.  And so, I believe that I can cast out demons and cure the ill - only with Jesus' help.  Continue to pray for those in need of prayer, I'm sure you have seen the benefits of prayer around you. 

On this day
1997  There was a period of 7 years where I didn't write as often in my journal.  There are a lot of empty pages.  Often our lives take a change, Nicole and I stayed busy with family and softball.  We went to work and school and church.  But Mark had left and our lives became different.  So this day that noted we made food and went to my cousin Darrel's for a BBQ and to watch the St Clair Shores Parade go by on Harper meant that we had settled into a new life.  I do remember on this day that my Mom went with us and my Aunt Terrie and Uncle Hank were there.  Aunt Terrie yelled at me for not cutting the watermelon right,  I loved my Aunt Teresa and told her to cut the damn thing herself.  This was actually the first May 25th that anything was recorded in. 

1997 - In Sierra Leone a military coup overthrew the popularly elected President Ahmad Tejan Kabbah. He was replaced with Major Johnny Paul Koromah. 

1997 - U.S. Senator Strom Thurmond became the longest-serving senator in U.S. history (41 years and 10 months). 

1997 - Poland adopted a constitution that removed all traces of communism. 
Busy day in history for a change!

Science and technology

Erected by King Bhupatindra Malla in 1702, Nyatapola is an important tourist attraction in the historical city of Bhaktapur.
Historical kingdoms that existed in the Kathmandu valley are found to have made use of some clever technologies in numerous areas such as architecture, agriculture, civil engineering, water management, etc. The Gopals and Abhirs, who ruled the valley up until c. 1000 BC, used temporary materials for construction such as bamboo, hay, timber, etc. The Kirat period (700 BC – 110 AD) employed the technology of brick firing as well as produced quality woolen shawls. Similarly, stupas, idols, canals, self-recharging ponds, reservoirs, etc. constructed during the Lichhavi era (110–879 AD) are intact to this day, which manifests the ingenuity of traditional architecture. Moreover, the Malla period (1200–1768 AD) saw an impressive growth in architecture, on par with its advanced contemporaries. An archetypal example of Malla architecture is Nyatapola, a five-storied, 30-metre tall temple in Bhaktapur, which has strangely survived at least four major earthquakes, including the April 2015 Nepal earthquake.[127
