              Good News for Marriage !!

There is great news to share from our nation's capital--good news about marriage. The House of Representatives has hired Paul Clement as the lead attorney to defend the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) in court. Of course, DOMA is the law that protects marriage at the federal level as the union of a man and a woman, and also prevents states from being forced to recognize same-sex marriages from other states.

Clement and his team have been hired to do what the Department of Justice (DOJ) refused to do earlier this year--defend marriage from judicial redefinition at the behest of those who would place adult desires above the needs of children to have both a mother and a father.

Give me a sense of humor, Lord, give me the grace to see a joke, 

to get some humor out of life, and pass it on to other folk!

     While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage.  The owner of  the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because attached to the back of  the carriage was a hand printed sign...                  

 "Energy efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass". 

"Caution: Do not step in exhaust."

Time-Tested Relationship Tip

 
"Defining the word 'love' is not easy. It requires a mental and physical attitude practiced every day of your life. In my boyhood days, I was a Boy Scout and believed in the 12 laws of scouting. I find these words very descriptive of a successful marriage....."

  1. TRUSTWORTHY...trusting in one another and adhering to your vows.
  2. LOYALTY...completely loyal to one another.
  3. HELPFUL...in sickness and in health.
  4. FRIENDLY...enjoy life, make each other laugh.
  5. COURTEOUS...to each other, and especially among other friends.
  6. KIND...in times of sadness and sickness...understand and share each other's emotions.
  7. OBEDIENT...lying and cheating has no place in the love of one another.
  8. CHEERFUL...remember, a smile is a frown turned upside-down.
  9. THRIFTY...to be successful such as a home, car, etc., sacrifice may be necessary.
  10. BRAVE...there may be times when bravery is necessary for self-protection but don't be foolish.
  11. CLEAN...physically clean and mentally clean is a must.
  12. REVERENT...path of righteousness and believing in each other.
