Beef and Vegetable Stew
6 to 8 boneless fancy beef ribs (nice name for roast beef) from my favorite HEB
Used 1 32oz vegetable broth another 32oz of water and two packs beef bullion
This makes a large batch in a 6 quart slow cooker for a big family or several days of meals for a small family.
Before prepping vegetables pour the broth, water and bullion into the crock pot, add the boneless beef ribs and turn on high. Need a good sharp knife and sharpener to keep it that way. Also need good peeler for removing the vegetable skins. I prefer an offset Y peeler and it looks like I will need to buy one.

3 links of Basil Chicken Sausage. Several meat markets make them. These are from Sprouts
This makes a large batch in a 6 quart slow cooker for a big family or several days of meals for a small family.

There are those who think meanly of prayer,
and are always asking: ‘What profit should we have if we pray unto the Almighty?’ (Job 21:15.) The true answer is, ‘much every way.’
There is an eye that never sleeps
Beneath the wing of night;
There is an ear that never shuts
When sink the beams of light. Continue reading JA Seiss Prayer
Wow, talk about setting the International play board.
Russia moves into Syria, at the request of President Bashar al-Assad, with a huge military presence on three bases. Builds up the air facility and starts immediately flying in military hardware and troops. The Syrians are happy they are there and now feel “safe” in their own country again. Russian fighter jets are now patrolling the region and has created a no fly zone warning US jets to stay out of the area as well. In usual fashion our government has been shamed by the bold take over in the region and now seeks to discredit the efforts of Russia to control the advances of ISIS.
When Russia first started their bombing missions the targets were President Obama’s CIA backed rebels that are trying to destroy President Bashar al-Assad. President Obama in usual fashion has disguised his war against Assad as attacks on ISIS.
The 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse
The four horseman of the apocalypse as they are commonly known are actually the first four seals to be opened by Jesus Christ and unleash the spirits that have been held in reserve by God for final years of this age. The horse and riders released in order are:
The White horse ridden by the false Christ to conquer.
The Red horse ridden by War with a huge sword to slaughter mete out justice.
The Black horse ridden by Famine to destroy all food crops and animals.
The Green horse ridden by Death followed closely by Hell and the Grave to kill with sword, famine, plagues and the wild animals of the earth. Continue reading The four horseman of the Apocalypse
Receiving the mark of the beast
Receiving the mark of the beast that is written about in Revelation, chapter 13 is not something that will be done lightly and it will not be hidden. The antichrist will want a very visible seal for all to see and more than likely not an RFID or electronic chip that can be hidden under the skin.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Opuntia cactus, known in Israel as “tsabar”
Sabra (Hebrew: צבר, pronounced tzabar) is an informal slang term that refers to Israeli Jews born in Israel. The term first appeared in the 1930s to refer to a Jew who had been born in Mandatory Palestine or in Ottoman Palestine (cf. Old Yishuv). Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Israelis have used the word to refer to a Jew born anywhere in the Palestine region or Israel.[1][2]
The term alludes to a tenacious, thorny desert plant, known in English as prickly pear, with a thick skin that conceals a sweet, softer interior. The cactus is compared to Israeli Jews, who are supposedly tough on the outside, but delicate and sweet on the inside.
In 2010, over 4,000,000 Israeli Jews (70%) were sabras, with an even greater percentage of Israeli Jewish youths falling into this category.[3]
