From my son Steven Roach:

I was thinking you should advertise the link regularly in your newsletter if the link doesn’t work just cut and paste

 
http://greenhorse.com/join_now.ghc?r=177952857
 
tell them it would help support the newsletter and they can earn money from it. They need to sign up and install it but they don't need to do anything else. They just do what they normally would anyways on the net and they earn money while it’s on. In other words they just keep it running while they are online. It’s small doesn't take up much system resources and they can earn more if they advertise their own link and get people under them as well. Let them know some people make 5-10$ a day on it and its been open since 2002. 

Don’t forget to order your copy of Angels Watching Over Me, the story of an ordinary woman facing less than ordinary challenges.  Angels Watching Over Me is a story of family love, sacrifices, poverty and an undying faith that makes heroes out of all of us. Here is the link in case you have forgotten it: http://www.lulu.com/content/964306

    First Fashion Show
Bill Walker

Genesis, chapter 3, verse 7. And the eyes of them both was opened;
and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together,
and made themselves aprons.

First fashion show, his and her aprons, made from fig leaves. Cloth
had not come about yet, there fore thread was not here yet. The
sewing must have taken form by way of vines. Wonder what was used for a
needle? Must have been quite a job doing all this while naked.

If one gets to thinking about this, it can get really funny. Fig
leaves, going to need quite a few, as the things will dry out, and
break up, and fall off. Now I know today, some run around in
outfits, that a fig leaf would cover more,, but these hankies are cloth
of some kind. These today will kind of stay put, fig leaves may be a
problem.

We have the serpent to thank for the fact we can't run about in our
birthday suit. The serpent gave us fashion shows. We have him to
thank for that. Every one has to have the very latest in fig leaves
wear.

Again, this is something that came about early on. We are not told
how many days Adam and Eve trotted about in their birthday suits,, but
the day came that they did eat of the fruit, and bang, their eyes were
opened and they could see they  did not have a stitch on.

If it hadn't been for that old serpent telling them it was OK to eat
of the fruit of that tree, we all could be trotting about as naked as
a Jay bird. Now I guess that is a wrong thing to say. Jaybird comes
with feathers.

A lot of changes came about that day. Serpent walked on fours, and
could talk. After that day, the serpent became the snake as we know
it today.

The renters was kicked out of the garden, and had to go to hard work,
among other problems.

But we got fashion shows out of the deal.

If You Could Love Me

 Joyce C. Lock

If you could love me enough to believe me

when I tell you that I AM for you

and stand in that faith ...

If you could seek me for every need,

trusting that I will always do

the most loving thing possible ...

If you could walk in paths as I guide you,

with your eyes on me and not on the storm ...

If you could believe that nothing

can harm you, with me at your side ...

If you could welcome our friendship,

to realize things others only dream of ...

Then you might love me, with all your heart;

And I could love you with all of mine.

Love, God

Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he

will dwell with them, and they shall be his people,

and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

Revelation 21:3, KJV
