What Does the Bible Mean to You?

Thought this would bring a smile to your face. It did for me. I don't know who the author is, but kudos to you!

A father was approached by his small son who told him proudly, "I know what the Bible means!"

His father smiled and replied, "What do you mean, you 'know' what the Bible means?"

The son replied, "I do know!"

"Okay," said his father. "What does the Bible mean?"

"That's easy, Daddy..." the young boy replied excitedly," It stands for 'Basic Information Before Leaving Earth.'"

Patriotic Meaning of Folding the United States Flag

Recently, I attended a military funeral. It wasn't my first and I'm sure it won't be my last.

The precision of the military honor guard as they pay tribute to the fallen soldier is a sight to behold. The mournful wail as Taps is played, the folding of the American Flag and the 21 gun salute are deeply symbolic for the family and for our country. Have you ever stopped and considered the meaning of the use of the American Flag in this ceremony? Tis beautiful, my friend.

Do you know that at military funerals, the 21-gun salute stands for the sum of the numbers in the year 1776?

Have you ever noticed the honor guard pays meticulous attention to correctly folding the United States of America Flag 13 times? You probably thought it was to symbolize the original 13 colonies, but we learn something new every day!....
