When I was young my mother sent to " BACK TO THE BIBLE BROADCAST"  for a book of poems and I found that little book and here is a poem I am going to share with you, it is called " THE LEGEND OF THE FORGET-ME-NOT"                                                                                                                         THE LEGEND OF THE FORGET-ME-NOT When to the flowers so beautiful The Father gave a name, There came a little blue-eyed one--- All timidly it came--- And standing at the Father's feet, And gazing in His face, It said with low and timid voice, And yet with gentle grace, " Dear Lord, the name Thou gavest me, Alas, I have forgot."

Psalms 1 The Righteous and the Wicked Contrasted. 1  How blessed is the man who  does not walk in the  counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor  sit in the seat of scoffers! 2  But his  delight is  in the law of the  Lord , And in His law he meditates  day and  night. 3  He will be like  a tree  firmly  planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does,  he prospers. 4  The wicked are not so, But they are like  chaff which the wind drives away. 5  Therefore  the wicked will not stand in the  judgment, Nor sinners in  the assembly of the righteous. 6  For the  Lord  knows the way of the righteous, But the way of  the wicked will perish.

Hi my friends! As I have written before, I love reading things from the past, such as old books written by godly men, they are a key to our wisdom and understanding.

It is a skillfully crafted instrument that produces phenomenal sound. Steinway pianos are built today the same way they were 140 years ago when Henry Steinway started his business. Two hundred craftsmen and 12,000 parts are required to produce one of these magnificent instruments. Most crucial is the rim-bending process, where 18 layers of maple are bent around an iron press to create the shape of a Steinway grand. Five coats of lacquer are applied and hand-rubbed to give the piano its outer glow. The instrument then goes to the Pounder Room, where each key is tested 10,000 times to...
