Bless you

It is my great honor and pleasure to welcome you to the Copeland Insurance Group Law Enforcement Appreciation Dinner. My years of experience as a prosecutor, felony judge, and Chief Justice, left me with magnified gratitude and respect for our officers who put their lives on the line every day for our peace and security. So to all of our officers in the audience tonight, thank you from the bottom of my heart. For all of us, thank you to the officers in attendance tonight for their…

chapter 12 from the mere fact that it diverges from the simplicity and adds dialogue between God and King Abimelech. God comes to Abimelech in a dream and says, “You are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken, for she is a man’s wife,” (92:3). Since Abimelech had not even touched Sarah as yet, he responds, “My Lord, will You slay a nation even if innocent? Did he not say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she, she, she too said, ‘He is my brother.’ With a pure heart and with clean…

Go to a new land God tells Abram, “Go forth from your land, kinsmen, and father’s house to a land that I will show you, I will make of you a great nation and I will bless you. I will make your name great and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those who curse you. All of the clans of the earth will be blessed through you.” Abram went forth taking with him his wife Sarai and his nephew Lot. In Canaan, Abram spread his tent and built an altar and called…

Do you know what the national anthem is? Our national anthem is The Star Spangled Banner, it is written by Francis Scott Key, who was a lawer and poet.

What Does the Bible Teach About Tithing? We have been taught that we are to give ten percent of our gross wages to the church, and that this idea, called tithing, is something that God requires and will bless us for if we do it. An article from PimpPreacher takes on the five most common arguments for tithing and the truth behind them. Argument: Abraham paid a 10 percent tithe to God and he was blessed because of it. If we are children of Abraham and want to be blessed like him, then we should…

Have you ever heard of Barack Obama and George Washington's inaugural speeches? George Washington and Obama's speeches compare and contrast in many ways. George Washington and Barack Obama are similar because they wanted the same thing. They were different because certain things in the speech were not the same. Also, the length of it contrasted. In the paragraphs below, I will explain the similarities and differences between these 2 former Presidents. George Washington's inaugural speech was…

Reading through the topics of choice I had a good idea where I would take each topic and assessed my knowledge of each, finally choosing one. After reading I have gained an abundance of knowledge and because of this, I feel like the topic I chose should be the one that my thoughts changed the most on. Comparing and contrasting God to myself, or the modern day human race, is a more in depth analysis than I would first think. Any religious person knows how great the work of God can be. The things…

hank you. We have listened and you have told us --- ENOUGH. ENOUGH of feeling like your government is ignoring you. ENOUGH of Washington bailouts and handouts. ENOUGH of feeling less safe and less secure in a more dangerous world where the bad guys are winning and the good guys are losing. But I have good news -- in just one hundred and twelve days --- it’s over. In this election the stakes have never been higher. Do we settle for the path we are on? Or do we take a better way? Republicans…

life because you will have less stress and less things to worry about. Everyone wants to live a good and sound life. Viktor Frankl said, “one must have a reason to “be happy,” and that is very much true. I think that the reason for wanting to be is that everyone wants good well-being. No one wants to be sad and depressed all the time. Everyone wants to live a happy and worry-free life. Overall happiness is one of the key components of a good life for me because when you are happy, you are able…
