Get Up! Stand Up! Don't Give Up the Fight!

Isaiah 54:17 (New King James)

No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Esaï 54:17 (Louis Segund)

Toute arme forgée contre toi sera sans effet ; Et toute langue qui s'élèvera en justice contre toi, Tu la condamneras. Tel est l'héritage des serviteurs de l'Éternel, Tel est le salut qui leur viendra de Moi, Dit l'Éternel.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Psalm 23:4 (King James)
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Psaume 23:4 (Louis Segund)
Quand je marche dans la vallée de l'ombre de la mort, Je ne crains aucun mal, car tu es avec moi : Ta houlette et ton bâton me rassurent
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ezékiel 25:17 " Le chemin de l'homme juste est assailli de tous les côtés par les injustices de l'égoïste et la tyrannie des hommes mauvais. Béni est il qui, au nom de la charité et de la bonne volonté, shepherds le faible par la vallée de l'obscurité. Pour il est vraiment garde de son frère et le trouveur des enfants perdus. Et Je frapperai vers le bas sur le toi avec la grande vengeance et colère furieuse ceux qui essayent d'empoisonner et détruire Mes frères. Et vous saurez que Je suis Le Seigneur quand J'étends Ma vengeance sur vous."

Make My Day!

I'm having more fun these days. I can hardly believe it! I haven't broken any bones yet. I'm in stellar physical shape. And here is the bonus!













I have been able to watch all of the episodes of "Bonanza" and "Hogan's Heroes" on TV that I want!



















My favorite TV characters have become Hoss on Bonanza, and Sargent Schultz on Hogan's Heroes.

Speaking of Hogan's Heroes, I served in the US Army in the 1980's with Bob Crane's(Colonel Hogan's) nephew in real life. Jon "J.C." Crane from San Diego, California. A shout out to you bro' wherever you may be these days! (He married a commissioned officer while we were enlisted men-way to go!) We made a pact that we were going to become "social revolutionaries" when we got out of the service. I hope I held up my end of the bargain! (Does missionary to Africa count for that?)

I'm still planning on returning to Uganda this fall to bring back the lady of my dreams. (Nakimuli Ruth) She has been my pillar of strength from afar through all of my moments of doubt and fear. I would have fallen apart long ago without her!

A lot of friends have given me hope. It's in God's hands...

Fired! Now I can pursue my career as a rodeo clown!

Goodbye French Team! You were good to me although working for that company on the whole was the worst experience I ever had in my professional life. Anyway thanks again to Serge Merlin, Florence, Mademoiselle Savoie & Samson. I enjoyed working with you. I will miss you! Adieu! Bonne chance! Que Dieu vous bénise!
