Martin Luther King: The Day That You Choose

"For when he was grown he denied the extravagant riches of a worldly kingdom, choosing instead to be afflicted among the people of God, rather than the pleasures of a sinful life but for a season."

Hebrews 11:24-25


"Take a stand for that which is right, and the world may misunderstand you and criticize you, but you never go alone, for somewhere I read that 'One with God is a majority,' and God has a way of transforming a minority into a majority. Walk with him this morning and believe in him and do what is right and he'll be with you even until the consummation of the ages.

Yes, I've seen the lightning flash, I've heard the thunder roll, I've felt sin's breakers dashing trying to conquer my soul but I heard the voice of Jesus saying still to fight on, he promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone; no, never alone, no, never alone. He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone. Wherever you are going this morning, my friends, show the world that you're going with truth. You are going with justice, you are going with goodness, and you will have an eternal companionship.

And the world will look at you and they won't understand you, for your fiery furnace will be around you, but you'll go on anyhow. But if not, I will not bow, and God grant that we will never bow before the gods of evil."

Martin Luther King, But If Not


"For what does it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, but loses his soul?"

Mark 8:36

Gold Daily and Silver Weekly Charts - And At Last the Weekend

Gold and silver jumped like scalded cats this morning when the Non-Fulltime Payrolls report came in shockingly low, along with a few other numbers that tend to show that the Fed is describing life on Fantasy Island in their forecasts.

There were intraday comments on the remarkable surge in June gold deliveries here.

Nice trend on the Non-Farm Payrolls, as shown in the first chart below.  I would certainly be on my guard against the economy overheating and getting ready to raise rates.   Thanks to Tony Sanders for telling me to look at those numbers.

I believe that there is an element in the financial system that is rather concerned about what gold may do if it breaks a certain level and starts to run, as it had done a couple of years ago.  And in their fears I do believe very strongly that they are mismanaging the situation and are setting up the very set of circumstances that they would most wish to avoid.  It is an old story.

Turning to other matters, at the very bottom are two of Mary's pre-operative MRIs.  I think these sorts of things are just amazing, but they are probably not well-suited for the squeamish.  When I first saw these pictures I gasped.  Well, it is gone now, and all that remains is the housekeeping, and more surveillance.  And thankfulness, as always.

And Dolly the little rescue dog has has been spayed and had her teeth cleaned yesterday at the animal hospital, with four infected teeth extracted. She really had been neglected even before being tossed out on the street in Winter.  It knocked the poor little thing for a loop, but she is recovering nicely, and is happy and comfortable with us, and we with her.  She is sleeping on a blanket now next to my wife, like two angels.

Thank God for His tender mercies.

Have a pleasant weekend.
