Hope your boy (who is handsome) leaves her alone. (I'm after some RCS myself!).
Thank you for the compliment on my boy. He doesn't seem interested in her at all anymore. No chasing. No stalking. No nipping. She's super brave. Coming out to the front of the tank. I'm hoping that continues to be the case! I'm gonna check out another LFS tomorrow. Just to see if they even have any in stock.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll boil it and possible bake it low and slow. Hopefully that will that will help kill the fungal spores that can kill my fish. While I continue my search for RCS, I'm gonna keep an eye out for cool pieces of malaysian driftwood. I'll hold off on putting the mopani wood in while I continue to look.

China tracks red-haired corn-eating Big Foot

BEIJING -- Standing 2.5 metres (eight feet) tall, with long red hair and a taste for corn on the cob, Big Foot is back and apparently running around a nature reserve in central China, state media said on Monday.

Chinese scientists are on the trail of the legendary ape-like beast after a hunter reported seeing a huge fast-moving creature covered in long, red hair in Hubei province's Shennongjia Nature Reserve two months ago, the China Daily said.

The scientists found 40-cm (16-inch) footprints, brown hair and chewed corn cobs at the spot where the hunter said he saw the beast, and concluded they were not left by a bear, it said.

Scientists have unearthed hundreds of fossilised teeth of giant apes in the area, and some speculate that Big Foot could be a descendant of such primates, it said.

Thirteenth Day

WAITING ON GOD: for mote tban we Know.

'And now, Lord, what wait I for 1 My hope is in Thee. Deliver me from all my transgressions.'—Ps. xxiix. 7, 8.

THEEE may be tfanes when we feel as if we knew not what we are waiting for. There may be other times when we think we do know, and when it would just be so good for us to realise that we do not know what to ask as -we ought. God is able to do for us exceeding abundantly above what we ask or think, and we are in danger of limiting Him, when we confine our desires and prayers to our own thoughts oi them. It is a great thing at times to say, as our psalm says: 'And now, Lord, what wait I fort' I scarce know or can tell j this only I can say— 'My hope is in thee.'

How we see this limiting of God in the case of Israel I When Moses promised them meat in the wilderness, they doubted, saying,'Can Gad furnish a table in the wilderness J He smote the rock that the water gushed out; can He give bread also 1 can He provide flesh for His people t' H they had been asked, whether God could provide streams in the desert, they would have answered, Yes. God had done it: He could do it again. But when the thought came of God doing something new, they limited Him; their expectation could not rise beyond their past experience, or their own thoughts of what was possible. Even so we may be limiting God by our conceptions of what He has promised or is able to do. Do let us beware of limiting the Holy One of Israel in our very prayer. Let us believe that the very promises of God we plead have a divine meaning, infinitely beyond our thoughts of them. Let us believe that His fulfilment of them can be, in a power and an abundance of grace, beyond our largest grasp of thought. And let us therefore cultivate the habit of waiting on God, not only for what we think we need, but for all His grace and power are ready to do for us.

In every true prayer there are two hearts in exercise The one is your heart, with its little, dark, human thoughts of what you need and God can do. The other is God's great heart, with its infinite, its divine purposes of blessing. What think yout to which of these two ought the larger place to be given in your approach to Him? Undoubtedly, to the heart of God: everything depends upon knowing and being occupied with that. But how little this is done. This is what waiting on God is meant to teach you. Just think of God's wonderful love and redemption, in the meaning these words must have to Him. Confess how little you understand what God is willing to do for you, and say each time as you pray: 'And now, what wait I for 1' My heart cannot say. God's heart knows and waits to give. 'My hope is in Thee.' Wait on God to do for you more than you can ask or think.

Apply this to the prayer that follows: 'Deliver me from all my transgressions.' You have prayed to be delivered from temper, or pride, or self-wilL It is as if it is in vain. May it not be that you have had your own thoughts about the way or the extent of God's doing it, and have never waited on the God of glory, according to the riches of His glory, to do for you what hath not entered the heart of man to conceive t Learn to worship God as the God who doeth wonders, who wishes to prove in yon that He can do something supernatural and divine. Bow before Him, wait upon Him, until your soul realises that you are in the hands of a divine and almighty worker. Consent but to know what and how He will work; expect it to be something altogether godlike, something to be waited for in deep humility, and received only by His divine power. Let the, 'And now, Lord, what wait I for 1 My hope is in Thee' become the spirit of every longing and every prayer. He will in His time do His work.

Dear soul, in waiting on God you may often be ready to be weary, because you hardly know what you have to expect. I pray you, be of good courage—this ignorance is often one of the best signs. He is teaching you to leave all in His hands, and to wait on Him alone. 'Wait on the Lord I Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Tea, wait thou on the Lord.' 'My $oul, wait thou only upon God /'

Psalm 95 KJV

1 O come , let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
2 Let us comea before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

References for Psalms 95:2

    • Ź 95:2 - come...: Heb. prevent his face
      3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
      4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
      5 The seab is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

      References for Psalms 95:5

        • ź 95:5 - The sea...: Heb. Whose the sea is
          6 O come , let us worship and bow down : let us kneel before the LORD our maker .
          7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
          8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation,c and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

          References for Psalms 95:8

            • Ż 95:8 - provocation: Heb. contention
              9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
              10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said , It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
              11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

Luke 2:1-7 NIV

The Birth of Jesus

1 In those days Caesar Augustus1 issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world.2

References for Luke 2:1

2 (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)3

References for Luke 2:2

3 And everyone went to his own town to register.
4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem4 the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David.

References for Luke 2:4

5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him5 and was expecting a child.

References for Luke 2:5

6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born,

1 Kings 14:3-13 MSG

3 Take along ten loaves of bread, some sweet rolls, and a jug of honey. Make a visit to him and he'll tell you what's going on with our boy."
4 Jeroboam's wife did as she was told; she went straight to Shiloh and to Ahijah's house. Ahijah was an old man at this time, and blind,
5 but God had warned Ahijah, "Jeroboam's wife is on her way to consult with you regarding her sick son; tell her this and this and this."
6 Ahijah heard her come through the door and said, "Welcome, wife of Jeroboam! But why the deception? I've got bad news for you.
7 Go and deliver this message I received firsthand from God, the God of Israel, to Jeroboam: I raised you up from obscurity and made you the leader of my people Israel.
8 I ripped the kingdom from the hands of David's family and gave it to you, but you weren't at all like my servant David who did what I told him and lived from his undivided heart, pleasing me.
9 Instead you've set a new record in works of evil by making alien gods - tin gods! Pushing me aside and turning your back - you've made me mighty angry.
10 "And I'll not put up with it: I'm bringing doom on the household of Jeroboam, killing the lot of them right down to the last male wretch in Israel, whether slave or free. They've become nothing but garbage and I'm getting rid of them.
11 The ones who die in the city will be eaten by stray dogs; the ones who die out in the country will be eaten by carrion crows. God's decree!
12 "And that's it. Go on home - the minute you step foot in town, the boy will die.
13 Everyone will come to his burial, mourning his death. He is the only one in Jeroboam's family who will get a decent burial; he's the only one for whom God, the God of Israel, has a good word to say.

Isaiah 41:1-7 NRS

1 Listen to me in silence, O coastlands; let the peoples renew their strength; let them approach, then let them speak; let us together draw near for judgment.
2 Who has roused a victor from the east, summoned him to his service? He delivers up nations to him, and tramples kings under foot; he makes them like dust with his sword, like driven stubble with his bow.
3 He pursues them and passes on safely, scarcely touching the path with his feet.
4 Who has performed and done this, calling the generations from the beginning? I, the Lord, am first, and will be with the last.
5 The coastlands have seen and are afraid, the ends of the earth tremble; they have drawn near and come.
6 Each one helps the other, saying to one another, "Take courage!"
7 The artisan encourages the goldsmith, and the one who smooths with the hammer encourages the one who strikes the anvil, saying of the soldering, "It is good"; and they fasten it with nails so that it cannot be moved.

Parallel Bible results for Job 35

The Message Bible

New International Version

Job 35

MSG 1 Elihu lit into Job again: NIV 1 Then Elihu said: MSG 2 "Does this kind of thing make any sense? First you say, 'I'm perfectly innocent before God.' NIV 2 "Do you think this is just? You say, 'I will be cleared by God. ' MSG 3 And then you say, 'It doesn't make a bit of difference whether I've sinned or not.' NIV 3 Yet you ask him, 'What profit is it to me, and what do I gain by not sinning?' MSG 4 "Well, I'm going to show you that you don't know what you're talking about, neither you nor your friends. NIV 4 "I would like to reply to you and to your friends with you. MSG 5 Look up at the sky. Take a long hard look. See those clouds towering above you? NIV 5 Look up at the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds so high above you. MSG 6 If you sin, what difference could that make to God? No matter how much you sin, will it matter to him? NIV 6 If you sin, how does that affect him? If your sins are many, what does that do to him? MSG 7 Even if you're good, what would God get out of that? Do you think he's dependent on your accomplishments? NIV 7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him, or what does he receive from your hand? MSG 8 The only ones who care whether you're good or bad are your family and friends and neighbors. God's not dependent on your behavior. NIV 8 Your wickedness affects only a man like yourself, and your righteousness only the sons of men. MSG 9 "When times get bad, people cry out for help. They cry for relief from being kicked around, NIV 9 "Men cry out under a load of oppression; they plead for relief from the arm of the powerful. MSG 10 But never give God a thought when things go well, when God puts spontaneous songs in their hearts, NIV 10 But no one says, 'Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night, MSG 11 When God sets out the entire creation as a science classroom, using birds and beasts to teach wisdom. NIV 11 who teaches more to us than to the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds of the air?' MSG 12 People are arrogantly indifferent to God - until, of course, they're in trouble, and then God is indifferent to them. NIV 12 He does not answer when men cry out because of the arrogance of the wicked. MSG 13 There's nothing behind such prayers except panic; the Almighty pays them no mind. NIV 13 Indeed, God does not listen to their empty plea; the Almighty pays no attention to it. MSG 14 So why would he notice you just because you say you're tired of waiting to be heard, NIV 14 How much less, then, will he listen when you say that you do not see him, that your case is before him and you must wait for him, MSG 15 Or waiting for him to get good and angry and do something about the world's problems? NIV 15 and further, that his anger never punishes and he does not take the least notice of wickedness. MSG 16 "Job, you talk sheer nonsense - nonstop nonsense!" NIV 16 So Job opens his mouth with empty talk; without knowledge he multiplies words."

Luke 3 WNT

1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being Governor of Judaea, Herod Tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip Tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias Tetrarch of Abilene,
2 during the High-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, a message from God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the Desert.
3 John went into all the district about the Jordan proclaiming a baptism of the penitent for the forgiveness of sins;
4 as it is written in the book of the prophet Isaiah, "The voice of one crying aloud! `In the Desert prepare ye a road for the Lord: make His highway straight.
5 Every ravine shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill levelled down, the crooked places shall be turned into straight roads, and the rugged ways into smooth;
6 and then shall all mankind see God's salvation.'"
7 Accordingly John used to say to the crowds who came out to be baptized by him, "O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 Live lives which shall prove your change of heart; and do not begin to say to yourselves, `We have Abraham as our forefather,' for I tell you that God can raise up descendants for Abraham from these stones.
9 And even now the axe is lying at the root of the trees, so that every tree which fails to yield good fruit will quickly be hewn down and thrown into the fire."
10 The crowds repeatedly asked him, "What then are we to do?"
11 "Let the man who has two coats," he answered, "give one to the man who has none; and let the man who has food share it with others."
12 There came also a party of tax-gatherers to be baptized, and they asked him, "Rabbi, what are we to do?"
13 "Do not exact more than the legal amount," he replied.
14 The soldiers also once and again inquired of him, "And we, what are we to do?" His answer was, "Neither intimidate any one nor lay false charges; and be content with your pay."
15 And while the people were in suspense and all were debating in their minds whether John might possibly be the Anointed One,
16 he answered the question by saying to them all, "As for me, I am baptizing you with water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose very sandal-strap I am not worthy to unfasten: He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and with fire.
17 His winnowing-shovel is in His hand to clear out His threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into His storehouse; but the chaff He will burn up in fire unquenchable."
18 With many exhortations besides these he declared the Good News to the people.
19 But Herod the Tetrarch, being repeatedly rebuked by him about Herodias his brother's wife, and about all the wicked deeds that he had done,
20 now added this to crown all the rest, that he threw John into prison.
21 Now when all the people had been baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the sky opened,
22 and the Holy Spirit came down in bodily shape, like a dove, upon Him, and a voice came from Heaven, which said, "Thou art My Son, dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."
23 And He--Jesus--when He began His ministry, was about thirty years old. He was the son (it was supposed) of Joseph, son of Heli,
24 son of Matthat, son of Levi, son of Melchi, son of Jannai, son of Joseph,
25 son of Mattathias, son of Amos, son of Nahum, son of Esli, son of Naggai,
26 son of Mahath, son of Mattathias, son of Semein, son of Josech, son of Joda,
27 son of Johanan, son of Resa, son of Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, son of Neri,
28 son of Melchi, son of Addi, son of Cosam, son of Elmadam, son of Er,
29 son of Joshua, son of Eliezar, son of Jorim, son of Maththat, son of Levi,
30 son of Symeon, son of Judah, son of Joseph, son of Jonam, son of Eliakim, son of
31 Melea, son of Menna, son of Mattatha, son of Nathan, son of David,
32 son of Jesse, son of Obed, son of Boaz, son of Salmon, son of Nahshon,
33 son of Amminadab, son of Admin, son of Arni, son of Hezron, son of Perez, son of Judah,
34 son of Jacob, son of Isaac, son of Abraham, son of Terah, son of Nahor,
35 son of Serug, son of Reu, son of Peleg, son of Eber, son of Shelah,
36 son of Cainan, son of Arpachshad, son of Shem, son of Noah, son of Lamech,
