Outfielder Sam Rice played 20 seasons in the Major Leagues - all but one with the Washington Nationals (later, the Senators). Rice retired from the game with 2,987 hits, 13 shy of the coveted mark of 3,000, making him the player that came the closest to reaching that milestone.

We all know how life can throw curveballs at us when we least expect them. In my case, it was an unexpected financial setback. I was struggling to make ends meet, and one critical bill had gone unpaid for far too long. It was the utility bill, and I knew that if it wasn't paid soon, I'd be facing the prospect of having my utilities cut off. I stumbled upon Self Credit Builder. It was like a beacon of hope in the sea of financial uncertainty. The concept was simple – you save a small amount each month, and in my case, it was just $25. But what truly appealed to me was the promise of building credit while saving money. Please remember to like, rate, subscribe and share this episode with your friends and family.

TRANQUILITY, SOLITUDE, AND OTHER POEMS by Karen Lee OliverThe force or strength of tranquility in everyday life is the existential center of my book. Pure philosophical thought colored by tinges of images of good and evil all baring some relationship with tranquility, the lack of tranquility, feelings of tranquility itself, pathways that lead to tranquility, meanings of tranquility in life and finally the beginnings of tranquility and our basic need for a tranquil life. This theme which runs through the center of my writings uses the poetic format combined with imagination to present to the reader new ideas, develop strong feelings and artistically express the fundamental and almost religious devotion of us all to peace and tranquility.Karen Lee Oliver was born in Poughkeepsie, New York on October 1, 1959. She studied at St. Agnes School for girls and graduated High School with Honors from Rhodes Preparatory School in New York City in 1976. She obtained a B.A. degree in English Literature from the State University of New York at Albany in 1981. Ms. Oliver has been writing her own poetry since 1986 and has published three works of poetry with her publisher, Xlibris; Pergola in 2002, Tales From the Mirwood in 2005 and Tranquility, Solitude and Other Poems in 2015, a recommended read by Blue Ink Review, 2016.https://www.amazon.com/TRANQUILITY-SOLITUDE-OTHER-POEMS-Oliver/dp/1499015356/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1659360603&sr=8-1https://www.karenleeoliverbooks.com/about-the-book/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/kloliverwb.mp3

The Donald Jeffries Show 6-15-2022 Phil Nelson Last Show Phil Nelson Phil Nelson served a stint in Brazil for the Peace Corps and after a career in the property-casualty insurance industry, he retired in 2003 and the idea for a book grew during the ensuing seven years. In that period, after reading dozens of books and other publications – and trips to NARA in College Park, Maryland, and the LBJ Library in Austin, Texas – his first book, LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination was first published by Xlibris in 2010. That book traced Johnson's entire criminal career, including his presidential years. A revised and shortened edition was published in 2011 by Skyhorse Publishing. Then a “sequel,” LBJ: From Mastermind to The Colossus was published in 2014, which focused primarily on Johnson's tumultuous reign as president and included much of the material that had been removed from the first edition. His third book, Remember the Liberty! – Almost Sunk by Treason on the High Seas, was published in 2017, the fiftieth anniversary of the June 8, 1967, Israeli attack. His fourth book, Who Killed Martin Luther King? The Case Against Lyndon B.Johnson and J. Edgar Hoover is a reexamination of the original government case against James Earl Ray. Within his website/blog, “LBJ The Master of Deceit” Nelson has continued documenting numerous other reasons – including murders of other men whom Johnson believed had crossed him, or feared they would expose his true nature. Nelson has presented new evidence that leads, arguably, to his involvement in the murders of Adlai Stevenson (1965), Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt (1967), and finally both Robert F. Kennedy and Thomas Merton. All of them he most likely used the services of the CIA in 1968 to accomplish those goals. Nelson and Don Jeffries discuss his fascinating research, concentrating heavily on LBJ and JFK.

Do you want to know what true, enduring love is like? Lend me your ears and I will tell you what the bible says. With the sweet sound of the Anointing, the Apostle Paul said: Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails. (1 Corinthians 13:4-8) What can separate us from the Love of God? The answer is ‘Nothing.' When you accepted the Love that Jesus offers you, you become his; and he is not going to let you get away from him ; neither will he let anyone snatch you out of his hands. And he is serious about it; just as any man should be when he finds himself a wife. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

He wanted everyone to know about his relationship with the Father and how important it was to his earthly ministry. He said: I can do nothing on my own. The Amplified Bible puts it this way: I can do nothing on my own initiative or authority. Just as I hear, I judge; and My judgment is just(fair, righteous, unbiased), because I do not seek My own will, but only the will of Him who sent Me. Jesus is saying that without the Father, he can do nothing: He always comes in agreement with what the Father says, and what the Father wants because the Father knows what is best. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

What I have discovered is that the man named Enoch walked faithfully with God, and kept his mind stayed on the Lord. For that reason, I am inclined to believe that he lived his life in peace. I say this because the bible says in Isaiah 26:3: You will keep him in perfect peace; Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. Just listen to what Moses wrote concerning Enoch while he was under the anointing and inspiration of the Holy Spirit: When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah. 22 After he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked faithfully with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. 23 Altogether, Enoch lived a total of 365 years. 24 Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

Proverbs 4:23 says: Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it springs the issues of life. Everything passes through the heart and then out again. That's when a person's character is defined. The human heart has an overflow valve (so to speak) so that when it becomes filled with issues, it can release the overflow. A spontaneous response is usually from the overflow of the heart. Sometimes it is a God-given response; as was the case with Peter. In Matthew 16: When Jesus asked the question, ‘Who do men say that the Son of man is?' With scrupulous exactitude, he shouted; ‘Thou art the Son of the Living God (Matthew 16:16). If you want to know what a person is all about, then take time to listen to their words and how they are presented. In their words, you will be able to recognize character traits; like anger, bitterness, greed, unforgiveness, just to mention a few. You will also be able to recognize Love, gentleness forgiveness patience and the like. In Matthew 7:15-20 Jesus said: You will know them by their fruits. No one expects to get oranges from a lemon tree; or grapes from thorn bushes. And so it is with the good and the evil heart. One will bring forth what is good and the other what is evil. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

Well, that's only possible when people like you continue to do good and share what you have with others. Of course, the good Lord can intervene and do wonders. That act of doing good and sharing is very important in the lives of Christians; and may I say, in the lives of all people. When we think of giving, sharing, and doing good; the first thing that comes to mind is LOVE. A person can give without loving; but it is almost impossible to love without giving. LOVE is a giving thing. John 3:16 says: For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. The act of godly giving resonates from deep down in the soul where compassion dwells.

A Proverb is not a Promise from God; so if it does not accomplish what it says, you have no reason to be upset with God. Yes, Proverbs is One of the 66 Books of the bible; and it is a very important part of the Canon of scripture. But before I begin to expound on today's verse (Proverbs 22:6); allow me to give you a definition of what a Proverb is. A Proverb is a Simple, Concrete, Traditional Truth based on common sense or experience. Proverbs are often used as a type of metaphor. Most cultures have their own unique proverbs. As a child growing up, I used to hear my mother say: ‘Where there is smoke, there is always fire.' Or ‘You don' know what you have, until you lose it.' Here are some Proverbs you may have heard before: A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. A bad workman always blames his tools. Actions speak louder than words. Now can you see the difference between a Proverb and a Promise made by God in scripture? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

Jesus is the Pathway to God, so for us to get to the Father, the obstacle must be dealt with ‘in the Pathway.' Let me say it another way: Sin is an obstacle in the pathway to God; so for us to get to him, sin must be dealt with in the body of Jesus. 1 Peter 2:24 says: Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed. When we examine the word ‘Confess or confession,' we find at least two applications. One as it relates to sin; and the other, as it relates to acknowledgement. For example, as it relates to Sin, 1 John 1:9 which says: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us. An example, as it relates to Acknowledgement, is seen in Matthew 10:32-33 which says: Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. 33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven. So this brings up a very important point: That we must always interpret a verse of scripture, in its context, or we will miss its true meaning. Today, we'll take a look at confession from a sin perspective. What does confession do for us, when we sin? What happens to that sin; and how does God view us, in light of our confession? One of the most difficult things to do; is to confess that you are a sinner. Pride will not let you do it. I remember, many years ago, someone tried to witness to me. One of the things, they wanted me to do, was to confess, or admit that I was a sinner. I couldn't do it. Pride wouldn't let me. But after hearing the Word, and coming to grips with what Jesus suffered on the cross for my sins; it was easy to make that confession. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

They express without a shadow of a doubt, the Mercy, the Goodness, and forgiveness of the Lord Jesus Christ. Before I go any further, I want you to know that it is my desire to explain the scriptures in the simplest way possible so that even a child could understand. For this reason, you can feel safe to have your children listen to the Podcast. The primary language is English, but we hope to have it translated into several languages. Praise the Lord. Today's scripture says: For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Throughout the New Testament, the Greek word, ‘SOZO' is used for salvation. It means: To Deliver (from the bondage of sin) To Protect (from the evil one) To Preserve (unto the Day of Salvation) To Heal (from pain and suffering) To make whole (spirit, soul and body) That's why Jesus came to this earth. 1 John 3:8 says: But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. And the ultimate purpose was to reconcile the world to himself: 2 Corinthians 5:19 says: God was in Christ. He was working through Christ to bring the whole world back to Himself. Firstly, God had to destroy the power of Satan. That was accomplished when Jesus died on the cross and was raised again from the dead. After having done that, he was able to give the Holy Spirit to those who believed in him. John 7:37-39 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

Jesus also said that he is the only Way to the Father. (John 14:6) One may say that Moses was also a Mediator. Well, that is quite true; but his mediation was to deliver the Ten Commandments to the people. He was more of a Deliverer than a Mediator. He delivered the Israelites from slavery under Pharaoh. Then he delivered The Ten Commandments; rules given by God for the people to live by. They never imagined that it was impossible for anyone born under the Fall of Adam to keep every Commandment; but I know a man who did keep them all. His name is Jesus. No one who is born in sin is able to keep God's righteous Laws. You must be Born Again; like Jesus said. Romans 3:10 and 23 says: There is none righteous; no, not one; for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 5:12 says: Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Romans 6:23 also confirms that the wages of sin is death.

Jesus was wrongfully charged with a crime, and was sentenced to death by way of crucifixion on a Roman cross. If Jesus was a Roman citizen, he would have been beheaded which is less painful than crucifixion. But because he was a Jew, he received the greater punishment-- Crucifixion. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

Who in the world would want to assume the guilty verdict of another, knowing that their life would be at stake? I know a man who would, and he did. His name is Jesus. And that's what 2 Corinthians 5:21 is all about. This transfer of Innocence and Guilt was prearranged before the foundation of the world. The man Christ Jesus was referred to as ‘The Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world (John 1:29) He was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8). His death would satisfy the wrath of God that was upon all mankind; due to the sin that was committed by one man; ADAM. When God made man (Genesis 1:26), and placed him in the Garden of Eden, he commanded him not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge, of Good and Evil. If he did, he would surely die. Unfortunately, the man did eat from the Forbidden Tree; and as a result, the death process began. No one truly understood how detrimental Sin was and still is. Not even Adam! And there are many people today who still don't understand the Horror that sin causes in the lives of people. Today we are in the midst of a Pandemic caused by a Corona virus code named Covid-19 which has already taken the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. According to the World Health Organization, the death toll has passed one million and counting. Scientists, Epidemiologists, Doctors, Nurses, and every Health Care professional are doing what they can to combat this virus.

So I began reading from verse 17, and discovered that Jesus was with his disciples; on his way to Jerusalem when he stopped along the way to forewarn them what was about to happen when they get to Jerusalem. This is what he said: 18 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death, 19 and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He will rise again.” Then out of the ‘blues' came the mother of James and John, the two sons of Zebedee; nicknamed by Jesus; ‘The sons of Thunder.' And she put forth a request to Jesus; that was so astounding; so much that the other 10 disciples became angry and offended. She actually knelt down before Jesus to make the request. That alone could tell you how important it was to her. Let me ask you this: If your father was about to die, what request would you ask of him? While you think about that; let me tell you what she said to Jesus. “Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on the left, in Your kingdom.” Did she even care that Jesus was about to be crucified? Or did she get a revelation of his kingdom that the others couldn't see? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message

The bible says that Faith comes by hearing; and hearing by The Word of God. So I encourage you to keep on listening and hearing that you may build up your Faith. Let's look at the situation in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve are going about their business as the Lord had instructed them. Then the devil appeared, pretending to be the carrier of good news: news that will bring knowledge, wisdom and prosperity. I'm sure you've heard that kind of preaching before. So he delivers the ‘So-called Good News' and sets a course of action that would put all future generations at odds with God. Even the earth would be in a state of groaning. When Adam and Eve ate the fruit, in disobedience to God's command, something happened in their DNA that would allow their sin of disobedience to be passed down to every person who would be born into the world. Let's go to the book of Romans Chapter 3:10-12 which says: “There is none righteous, no, not one; 11 There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. 12 They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one.” Verse 23 says: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God: Here is the proof of that generational curse that started with Adam. Romans 5:12 says: Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lennox-blaides/message
