Get Faith
Revelations chapter 11  "Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign forever and ever!""   I wonder if they used earthly items (trumpets) to relate heaven to the reader or if these instruments were created here to use in worship on earth.  I'm sorry that is kind of a, what came first question but the descriptions of heaven sound wonderfully familiar.  I would love to hear the heavenly choirs singing as I do the choir in church on Sunday morning.  And now I also have that song stuck in my head....And He Shall Reign forever and ever!!!!!

On this day
1988  It was Thanksgiving and I was hosting.  I put the turkey on and then we watched the parade.  Nicole was three and Aaron was here and oh how I miss those holiday mornings.  Sleepy, snuggly kids in pajamas glued to the TV.  It was a nice day in the 50's and Aaron played outside all day.  I'm sure Nicole was out there a good part of the day as well.  Later Aunt Jan, Grandpa, Mike, Pam, and Emma came over for dinner but Grandma Luvy was working at Cottage Hospital this day and came over later.  That evening we watched ET on television.  "ET phone home!" 

1871 - The National Rifle Association was incorporated in the U.S.  Mixed emotions on that one.

Santa Marta was founded in 1525,[31] and Cartagena in 1533.[32] Spanish conquistador Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada led an expedition to the interior in April 1536, and christened the districts through which he passed "New Kingdom of Granada". In August 1538, he founded provisionally its capital near the Muisca cacicazgo of Bacatá, and named it "Santa Fe". The name soon acquired a suffix and was called Santa Fe de Bogotá.[33][34] Two other notable journeys by early conquistadors to the interior took place in the same period. Sebastián de Belalcázar, conqueror of Quito, traveled north and founded Cali, in 1536, and Popayán, in 1537;[35] from 1536 to 1539, German conquistador Nikolaus Federmann crossed the Llanos Orientales and went over the Cordillera Oriental in a search for El Dorado, the "city of gold".[36][37] The legend and the gold would play a pivotal role in luring the Spanish and other Europeans to New Granada during the 16th and 17th centuries.[38]
