Acts chapter 13 "Thus the word of the Lord spread throughout the region. But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas and drove them out of their region. So they shook the dust off their feet in protest against them, and went to Iconium. And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit." Those poor Jews, they turned from God so many times and now the promised Messiah came and they rejected him and those who came with the good news to save them. Stiff necked people I believe God called them. I feel bad - I want them to have the promise God told them about.
On this day
2003 I was with Waynette in Scotland - we were in Edinburgh and of course toured the castle and the city by bus and then were free to be on our own the rest of the day. Waynette wanted to walk to the registry and then we shopped, went to the Park to see the floral clock. We met up with Tim and Diana and had lunch with them at Hard Rock and I bought a t shirt for Nicole. I think they were from California. We went back to the room and cleaned up and then had drinks with Ray & Carmel, and Laurie. We found an internet cafe on what seemed an alley to me and then went to EST EST EST for dinner.
1679 - The British crown claimed New Hampshire as a royal colony. Really?

At this rate, the city’s population is expected to double by year 2053.
