Thank you Caleb for your hearty encouragement but No except for one Question and Answer I didn’t write these Statements, as I shared in my intro, they were sent to me from a friend, Vivienne often e-mails messages that are either funny or they get you thinking and also wonderful Animal pics too but with this one like you I had a good laugh and so did Ron but he also picked the error in one of the Questions and Answers, can you without reading Ron’s comment ? and can you pick the one I wrote ?
Thank you also Caleb for your concern for my Health, I’m feeling much better but I still have a few problems resulting from the Influenza B virus which is in plague proportions in Queensland and Sydney. My gums were very infected which caused my Teeth to ache but they are much better now and not painful anymore just a bit sore but I still have a cough that comes and goes.
Thankfully I’m no longer contagious so I don’t have to wear a mask now, just as well I didn’t have to go to the Bank with it on, I may have looked very suspicious pulling my purse out of my bag they might have thought it was a gun. Lol
Christian Love and Blessings – Anne.

I bet the one answer you are referring is the one about marriage…(I haven’t read Ron’s comments yet) sorry I must have misunderstood the introduction or read over it too quickly.
Glad that you are feeling better. Influenza can be very serious and life threatening, besides is makes you feel horrible!
Thanks for sharing that e-mail…it was funny. I can only imaging how funny it must feel going to the bank with a mask on!
Cheers,
Caleb

In reference to the Mask Caleb, I still have one so I will let you know the response I get at the bank.
In regard to the Statements, it was the first Question and Answer that was in error, Napoleon died on the island of Saint Helena not in a battle and I added number 14 both the Question and Answer and it’s also True that without Marriage there would be no Divorce but you are also right because Jesus said that Divorce shows a hard heart so we could say…
Q15…What is the reason for Divorce
A15… A hard heart
But that’s not funny is it …. it’s tragic!
Take care dear Caleb, God’s Blessings – Anne.

Do you know Queensland knew we were coming when we were crossing the Boarder from N.S.W to Queensland, yes it’s True, there was a Big sign, Stocks Crossing but Oh the Shock when we arrived, the Shops were saying hurry while Stocks last but worse then this was when they said New Stocks were on the way, really at our age we did not welcome this information but we are Special because they said Stocks were a Limited Edition!

I just commented on your resent Post Debbie and once again it was moderated even though as you can see below it is short with no Scripture, so until you check with WordPress and find out why they are adjusting your settings so that it moderates my comments, I feel it is better that I don’t comment on your Posts, it seems since you advised me that it is not you doing this than someone at WordPress is deliberately seeking to upset me, they have also been stopping me receiving replies to my comments from other Blogs .
My Comment on your Post…….
Thank you Debbie the Pictures are beautiful and the words powerful in context.
It is hard to pick favorite parts of the Bible as all Scripture is inspired by God and many have touched my heart but Isaiah 43 is a powerful Scripture with great assurance from our Lord God who Loves and cares for us.

Yes true Debbie but people often call animal appendages hands and feet which is wrong as you said, so grammatically speaking this person was correct when he said; You will never find an Elephant that has one hand.
What was in error as Ron corrected in his comment ; Napoleon died on the island of Saint Helena not in a battle.

Yes Love, so many accept what is stated without questioning if it’s valid, I have done this in the past and perhaps you have too. Saying we agree even with error is easier than standing firm on what is Truth, this is the same with Scripture even though what is said is contrary to what it confirms, this is why we need to check the source and test the spirit of those who seek to teach and not just believe what they say is True, rubbish in rubbish out and yes it is then passed on to others too.
I hope your Computer is fixed soon Love, it’s so much easier cutting and pasting your comments but thanks I still appreciate them.
Christian Love and blessings Always – Anne.
