EX 22:20-26
Thus says the LORD:
"You shall not molest or oppress an alien,
for you were once aliens yourselves in the land of Egypt.
You shall not wrong any widow or orphan.
If ever you wrong them and they cry out to me,
I will surely hear their cry.
My wrath will flare up, and I will kill you with the sword;
then your own wives will be widows, and your children orphans.
"If you lend money to one of your poor neighbors among my people,
you shall not act like an extortioner toward him by demanding interest from him.
If you take your neighbor's cloak as a pledge,
you shall return it to him before sunset;
for this cloak of his is the only covering he has for his body.
What else has he to sleep in?
If he cries out to me, I will hear him; for I am compassionate."

My Final Out
I had my final out today so I had to go to Ft Leavenworth for an hour or so this morning.
After I signed my paperwork for my DD214, (paperwork that shows my service) I got my flag, Army sticker, and lapel pin.
So now I am on terminal leave until December. I've been on permissive TDY for the past month. During that time I finished painting the last side of my house and completed all the VA medical appointments. Well I didn't paint the stucco on parts of the front facade but other than that I pretty much finished up the entire outside house.
I also refinished my back deck, painted my kitchen walls just for fun. I repaired part of my kitchen wood floor under the fridge where it warped three years ago when the fridge leaked. I patched three holes in my walls that have been there for a few years where I ran computer, TV, and stereo cable. I cleared out and seeded about 40 sqr ft of brush in my back yard to extend it out some more. And I repainted my lawn furniture.
It took me more than a month to do all that but I also relaxed a lot too :-)

Psalm 62
I was watching an episode of "More Reflections with Father Leo Clifford" on EWTN. He recited part of Psalm 62. Thought I would share it.
"My soul, be at rest in God alone,
from whom comes my hope.
God alone is my rock and my salvation,
my secure height; I shall not fall.
My safety and glory are with God,
my strong rock and refuge.
Trust God at all times, my people!
Pour out your hearts to God our refuge!"
