UPS Uniforms

Government Warning regarding purchase of UPS uniforms:

There has been a huge purchase, $32,000 worth, of United Parcel Service (UPS) uniforms on eBay over the last 30 days. This could represent a serious threat as bogus drivers(terrorists) can drop off anything to anyone with deadly consequences! If you have ANY questions when a UPS driver appears at your door they should be able to furnish VALID I.D.

Additionally, if someone in a UPS uniform comes to make a drop off or pick up, make absolutely sure they are driving a UPS truck. UPS doesn't make deliveries or pickups in anything, except a company vehicle. If you have a problem, call your local law enforcement agency right away!

TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY! Tell everyone in your office, your family, your friends, etc. Make people aware so that we can prepare and/or avoid terrorist attacks on our people! Thank you for your time in reviewing this and PLEASE send to EVERYONE on your list, even if they are friend or foe. We should all be aware!

: Christmas Advice

.

This is very good advice....
I got this today from one of the little daily devotionals that I receive. It
has some very timely
advice and I wanted to pass it on to all of you.
This is an additional issue for today.
Someone needs this right now.
Don't Go In Debt
=================
Don't go in debt this year buying Christmas presents.
If you don't have it cash, don't buy it.
So many people end up after Christmas without the spirit of joy
because they are saddled with the spirit of debt.
"Debt is the slavery of the free"

Four Gifts!
=======
A number of years ago when my youngest child of six children was
10 or 11, I was driving myself crazy trying to buy everything on
her very lengthy Christmas list. I wanted to be a good parent
and give my child the desires of her heart.
In the midst of all of this, a friend told me that he and his
wife buy their children four gifts for Christmas every year.
Yes, FOUR gifts!
They are:
1. Something you want
2. Something you need
3. Something to wear and
4. Something to read.
If they complain, ask them, "Whose birthday are we celebrating?"
Once I started doing this, I thought my children would be awful
about it, but the opposite happened. They really appreciated
every gift they got, and they made me "label" them.
Since that time, Christmas at our house has been so much more
enjoyable because we could focus on the true meaning of the
celebration, and I wasn't driving myself crazy trying to find
and buy gifts I couldn't afford.
And yes, I still buy and label four gifts for them each year.

10. Amos cried out in Iraq!
11. Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem.
12. Daniel was in the lion's den in Iraq!
13. The 3 Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in Iraq also as the 4th

14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the "writing on the wall" in Iraq.
15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq.

18. Peter preached in Iraq.
19. The "Empire of Man" described in Revelation is called Babylon, which was a city in Iraq!
Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second?
It is Iraq! However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible. The names used in the Bible are Babylon, Land of Shinar, and Mesopotamia. The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. The name Iraq means country with deep roots. Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible. No other nation, except Israel, has more history and prophecy associated with it than Iraq.
And also... This is something to think about! Since America is typically represented by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages...
The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)
Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah; and there was peace. (Note the verse number!) Hmmmm?! God Bless you all Amen !Whatever you enshrine in your heart exists in eternity, as a pure note in the collective harmony. This is as good as it gets.
